*If that is your criteria then you'd have no reason to ever criticize any
president about anything, but the thing is, I've been on this list a long
time and I remember you had absolutely no difficulty whatsoever criticizing
POTUS when he happened to be a Democrat. Strange behavior coming from
somebody who claims to be neutral. *

*So I guess I would be correct in concluding that you were being arrogant
and ignorant when you criticized President Biden for not cracking down on
illegal immigration and being excessively woke. How can you be sure he
didn't have some  superduper top secret reason for doing both?*

*If the **JCPOA** inspectors had found a gross violation of the Iran
nuclear deal, what possible reason would Donald have for telling them to
keep their mouth shut about it? And FOR 8 YEARS?!*

*I have noticed that people become annoyed at AI when the facts that they
mention  don't jive with their political ideology. And I have also noticed
that GPT-2 would have been a far FAR better arbiter of the truth than
Donald J Trump. *
