I'm starting this thread so Farmstud won't hijack Vitaman's very good thread on Trump's isolation.

Interesting question Farmstud. I can't think of any that represented a change, where the positives outweighed the negatives. There must be something though.

I had high hopes when he came to office that his trade policy would make more sense than Trump's, but those were dashed.

The American Rescue plan has brought internet to where Farmstud lives. Maybe he does not appreciate internet, I bet other farmers in the farming community do.

For the most part regarding China trade, Trump's tariffs still stand. One of the drivers of inflation. Those costs were just passed on to the consumer. Trump is now proposing a 60% tax on imports.

Capping drug prices like Insulin at $35 a month and total out of pocket at $2000 per year for seniors is a notable policy. Trump tried to do the $35 with an Executive order but that isn't as powerful. Biden got it through congress which is enforceable.

It takes years to realize any benefits or negatives to major policy changes. Usually into the next presidential term or after.

Reality is a President might sign the bills but it is a long process to get things through congress. Executive orders are limited in scope and are easier to overturn buy courts or congress...

Bipartisan Infrastructure Law has a lot of good stuff going on. Rebuilding roads and bridges, climate change initiatives, modernize military infrastructure, creates up to 600,000 jobs.

Two strongest years of job growth in history.

More than 40 million borrowers stand to benefit from student debt relief.

Increased the maximum value of Pell Grants by $900.

Millions of Americans are saving $800 per year on health insurance coverage.

Building semiconductors at home through the CHIPS Act. Reduces our dependence on foreign chip manufacturing, and creates jobs. Could say it also is good for National Security to have more chip manufacturing capability here.

My guess is the below site may lean left and I admit I didn't read it all, but take it or leave it because it is what google gave me in my highly intense and highly stressful 15 seconds of research.

Anyway, it is silly to say the man has done nothing. Just because some things he has done may not have directly affected someone so one is unaware, does not mean it has not had a positive impact on millions of others.

And in all fairness and objectivity for Trump fans, I included a similar list for you as well from the same site:

LM, good link. Renewable energy is the number two source of electricity under Biden & Kamala. Perhaps electricity is not important to Farmstud.
