He has delivered

Donald Trump made a lot of promises to his horde of followers, the biggest one being that Mexico would pay for the wall he intended to build along the southern border. His promise to build the wall catapulted him to the presidency, and his supporters eagerly anticipated the contruction of the big “beautiful” border wall, bought and paid for by Mexico! But since Donald Trump is an unmitigated failure and charlatan, his dream never came to fruition, disillusioning some of his diehard fans and followers.

Joe Biden has been the president for nearly two years. He has used this time to overturn hundreds of the cruel and venal policies signed into existence by the disgraced ex-president. He has also proved himself adept at delivering on promises that Donald Trump was unable to fulfill. An appropriate example is the bipartisan infrastructure bill, which was signed into law near the end of 2021. The often repeated infrastructure week was brought into existence by Joe Biden and a democratic congress. The bill was a great accomplishment by Biden, and signified an implicit rebuke of Donald Trump, the abject failure of a man. I could imagine Donald Trump stewing in one of his palatial estates.

In regards to security at the southern border, President Joe Biden and Andrés Manuel López Obrador, the president of Mexico, coalesced around a plan for increased border security. And you know what? Mexico has committed to paying 1.5 billion dollars for border infrastructure, the type of commitment Donald Trump was unable to exact from the Mexican president. Has someone shared this information with Trump? I do hope so. Because once again, Biden was able to was able to do something that Trump couldn’t do. Because unlike Trump, who is all bluster, Biden is a man of action who delivers on policy.

Biden also kept his promise to appoint a black women to the Supreme Court. His presidency has been historic in more ways than one.
