An 'issue' would be something of national/international importance and how it being dealt with by the President and his Government. Reproducing lists of public opinion polls is irrelevant in an answer that requires one and only one 'issue' from you. Those issues I listed, the President's mental capacity, Making good decisions about Economic Policy Making good decisions about Foreign Policy Using military force wisely Making wise decisions about Immigration Policy, and Bringing the country closer together and how they are being dealt with by the President and his Government, are of major importance to the U.S. and its enemies. Maybe not to you! Lol Edited October 19, 2021 by trastrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a solid Democrat State, too. Maybe it's just another case of "rules for thee, but not for me"? Lol No - read your post #561 above where you state 40% are unvaccinated. Now looking at the Sacramento Bee story you quoted; https://www.sacbee.com/news/politics-government/the-state-worker/article254974997.html it seems pretty obvious that they count people who've only had one jab as "unvaccinated". I don't think there are any rules in California that say a state employee must vote Democrat, and would have thought Highway Patrol and Prison employees would tend to be Republicans. Going back to #551 California (Dem) has 71% fully vaccinated - Texas (Rep) has 52%, Florida (Rep) has 58%. https://usafacts.org/visualizations/covid-vaccine-tracker-states/state/texas https://usafacts.org/visualizations/covid-vaccine-tracker-states/state/florida Edited October 18, 2021 by Longcol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not to you! Lol "On what issue?" Singular. It appears that you intention is to repeat a list, now edited* with bias toward a political opinion - and not a genuine attempt to open a discussion. If you want the OP statement discussing, stop evading the question and choose one issue/aspect of Joe Biden's first year in office. More and more lists that reflect your political opinion do nothing to help evaluate a fascinating 12 months of American politics. * "He gets his best grade for Handling the Coronavirus Outbreak 51 49" no longer appears.

That was on purpose, hoping to get you to answer the question posed by the original thread, namely, "Joe Biden, the new President, your thoughts so far?" Rational minds can assume that the question refers to Joe Biden's job performance as President of the U.S. You did not seek that clarification "on what issue"from the original poster. Why? Now after much prevarication and dissembling on your part, you note I have left out one of the six issues I invited you to comment on. (Co-incidently the one he recieved his best approval on, lol) So feel free to comment on that issue, and ignore his failing approval ratings on the other. We'll understand!

Lol Post 530 You: "But how IS Joe doing?" Post 531 Me: "On what issue?" Your continuous criticism of the President is based long ramblings and lists that put popularity in the US above his effectiveness (or otherwise) as the President. Criticism is always OK but you should be prepared justify that criticism. Your inability to answer a straightforward question implies that you are content to avoid specifics and a focus on one issue. Criticism without explanation and justification leaves just a political opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
