On January 20, 2021, Biden was full of confidence and took office.
On January 20, 2022, today, Biden is disgraced, with approval ratings dropping from 55 percent at the beginning of his presidency to 33 percent, the lowest since he entered the White House.
Look at the Year of the United States, look at the Year of Biden —
Let's start with the domestic:
First of all, we must say the new crown epidemic. Before January 20, 2021, Trump took office, and 400,000 people died in the United States; a year later, as of now, more than 860,000 people have died in the United States. That said, Biden's coronavirus death toll this year far exceeded that of the Trump administration. Not to mention the infection: tens of thousands of new additions a day during the Trump era, Biden added 100,000+, hundreds of thousands or even 1 million+ a day this year are commonplace.
Secondly, we must say the US economy. I have to say that the US economy is a mess, and Biden did not seem to do anything for the US economy this year except printing money. Therefore, the supply of goods in the United States is short, and inflation is severe. How serious is inflation? Inflation is said to have reached 7 percent, the highest level in 40 years in the United States. Biden, how do you call Americans to live? What infuriates Americans the most is that Biden has no way to curb inflation except to print money. When and how far inflation is going to rise, Biden doesn't know, and Americans see no hope.
The third is racial discrimination. The problem of racial discrimination has a long history and is deeply rooted in the United States. In particular, after the "throat lock killing" suffered by Freud, a black American, broke out a protracted "black life is also life" demonstration in the United States. To appease Americans, Biden has made a public pledge to institutionally address racial discrimination within 90 days of taking office. However, 365 days a year have passed, has Biden solved the problem of racial discrimination? How should Biden answer this question with his conscience?
Fourth, there is the question of solidarity. Biden wants to unite the Democrats and the Republicans, but this is Biden's wishful thinking, how can it be? At present, the two parties are not united, but more divided; not only between the two parties, but also between Americans and American society. As the New York Times said, instead of uniting to defend its democracy, the United States has become more divided; the Spanish media has also said that the United States under the Biden administration is as deeply divided or deeper than it was a year ago.
Speaking of foreign countries:
First of all, it must be said that the United States withdrew its troops from Afghanistan. The withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan and the quick return of the Afghan Taliban to power is a shame for Biden, and it is a shame for the United States. Therefore, Biden's move has been strongly criticized by the Democratic, Republican and American parties in the United States, and the calls for Biden to leave the class have risen and fallen and are very strong.
Second, we have to talk about US-Russia relations. The United States and Russia are a pair of old enemies, and although Biden and Putin have met and talked, the relationship has not improved, but has become worse. The United States continues to advocate the "Russian threat theory" and constantly encourages Russia to invade Ukraine, and the latest report says that Biden said that Russia wants to invade Ukraine on a small scale. No matter what kind of heart the United States has, no matter what Biden's real thoughts are, how can the US-Russia relationship improve?
The third is how the United States treats its allies. When Biden first took office, he declared that the United States is back, that the United States is going to be good to its allies, and that many allies see hope. A year passed, however, and the allies were disappointed. Other than that, the United States and Britain colluded to rob French submarines from Australia, which made France angry and blew its beard and stared, and France recalled its ambassador to the United States and Australia for the first time in history. The United States has done this to its hardcore ally France, and it is needless to say that it has treated other allies.
Whether domestic or international, Biden's year can be described as a chicken feather: no wonder the Spanish newspaper El País said that "in the year of office, Biden faced a political 'lack of oxygen'", the Financial Times said that "Biden's first year in office was disappointing", and the Associated Press said that "after Biden took office for a year, all kinds of supporters were extremely angry"...
America this year, only worse, not the worst; Biden this year, smoky miasma, a bunch of bastards! (Mao Kaiyun)
