Before his death, Osama bin Laden wanted to kill President Obama in part because he thought Vice President Joe Biden was "unprepared" to serve as president, according to newly declassified documents first reviewed by the Washington Post.

He has sabotaged our foreign relations...exercised rampant corruption

Provide me some examples for these claims in particular. Russia collusion was exonerated, we got 3 years of a red bating, evidence free conspiracy theory by the democrats and left-wing media.

catastrophically undermined our pandemic response

He shut down travel from China almost immediately. What are you referring to specifically?

Biden won't enable Russian espionage attacks and drive all our allies and trade partners toward China like Trump does.

I fail to see that based on Biden's own words and actions. The guy has allegedly used his influence to help his son secure business deals with China and Ukraine. Trump has been anti-China since day 1, I fail to see how your point makes logical sense when he forced harder sanctions on them. Why would he drive more commerce towards China? If you can provide an example here I would love to see it.

Why would he drive more commerce towards China?

"China has expanded in a vacuum left by the US retreat under the Trump administration into “America First” jingoism and unilateralism."

Nicely done. I don't want to continue this further but, I appreciate the insight. I've read through several of these. I'm a firm believer that the truth lies somewhere in the middle when it comes to publications. You've provided a lot of left leaning publications so they inherently have their bias. I can just as easily find right leaning publications that refute points of these. We really need a middle ground in news reporting. I feel like I never get the middle take of here's what happened, here's what it means. Both sides always provide some general, former aid, or "insider" with anecdotal/opinion based information about someone that asserts that publication's preferred demographic viewpoint. Love that video Trump's biggest failure, PolandBall was a great sub.

You're only bringing up publishers to distract from the point. Everything I said is public knowledge corroborated by countless sources and freely available proof. Biased reporting doesn't invalidate reality.
