      Nobody is talking about the Muslim ban, we’re talking about the more recent attempt to close the mexican border.

      But it’s irrelevant, you’re still missing the point.

      My point is that Biden’s unpopular actions decrease how many people will vote for him. This is how Biden ensures Trump will come to power.

        Did you not read the second half of my comment? He ended Title 42 a year and a half after taking office. Federal judges stopped it for a year.

        You wrote three and a half years.

        You fabricate information in your comments often. I will always call out misinformation.

        Cite your sources and stop with the lies.

        Incidentally, you quoted my point about the Muslim ban in your previous comment. So yeah, we were certainly talking about it.

        Biden has done plenty of good where Trump did nothing or actively worsened things for the working class, minorities, and the planet. You only select Biden’s worst policies to define his presidency.

          It doesn’t matter if his excuse was some court he can just ignore and face no consequences asked him to keep it in place or if did it on a whim, he had the power to change it, he didn’t use it. It was in place for like 3 and a half years.

          You’re not calling out misinformation, you’re quibbling.

            You inflated his inaction on Title 42 by two years. Quibbling my ass. I’m calling you a liar. This is not the first time I’ve called you out on false information.

            Something tells me it won’t be the last.

              He took an action that took 3 years to complete instead of ending it on day one and telling the courts to fuck off.

              That’s keeping it in place for 3 years.

              This isn’t misinformation, this is you being intentionally dense.

                POTUS is the head of the Executive Branch. He has no control over the Judicial Branch other than appointing judges in the event of vacancy.

                Telling them to “fuck off” is meaningless nonsense.

                Also, it still wasn’t three years. From inauguration in January of 2021 to May of 2022. You seem to really want to be right. You’d probably have more success if you cited accurate information.

                  it still wasn’t three years.

                  Oh no it was closer to 2.5 years than 3.5 years!

                  Come on, you know this doesn’t refute my point.

                  Telling them to “fuck off” is meaningless nonsense.

                  The SCOTUS has no means to enforce its decisions. It knows this and has historically kowtowed to the executive when faced with its own marginalization.

                  The president literally can just ignore them, as Trump did when they made a ruling he didn’t like such as DACA. There’s some other precedents: https://revealnews.org/blog/a-brief-history-of-presidents-telling-so-called-judges-to-get-lost/

                    As I said, it was a year and a half when he ended Title 42. It was two and a half years due to Federal court. Your initial claim was three and a half years. Is it that hard to admit that you’re wrong?

                    I’m done with your repeated misrepresentation of my argument, and childish suggestions that “he can just do what he wants” and tell the judge to “fuck off.”

                    Good night.
