I don't know. But the specific article you linked to is from a right wing source.
I am clarifying that msn is not MSNBC. They are different companies. Just because msn publishes an article, it doesn't mean a left wing person will agree with it

I was curious how MSN chooses to "publish" -- it seems they use a combination of AI and Editors (presumably human)....

That is a good strategy - if one sets the bar of expectation "low enough" whatever happens would be an improvement or at least "the same as expected". It is a good way to avoid disappointment.
This is true, although for me in this case, I had good reason not to expect Biden to impress me. He’s the DNC guy. He’s too old to be expected to have his finger on the pulse of things. His history on race is horrible. His policies are milquetoast. He’s, by my standards and world standards, a conservative.

We at the very least no longer have a self-obsessed gaslighter pushing harder into the nation’s deep, political wounds and sowing distrust in the validity of our democracy. Those are two huge improvements even if they don’t necessarily grow anyone’s wallets.
I am not sure who you are talking about because our current president has done all that you have mentioned.

Peoples ability to stay on topic in threads.
Honestly, with every thread becoming a conversation about Trump, I cannot say I agree with your assessment.

I can go two or three days without wondering what cockamamie thing that the President of the United States of America did/said today.
You must don't keep up with Biden much. Can you name any other president who has ever been given specific instructions from his handlers not to answer questions from the press or only take pre-approved questions from pre-approved correspondents out of fear of what he will say?

"MSN" is totally irrelevant to the actual discussion, but someone was apparently confused.

MSN posts Washington Examiner article that concludes this:

" he (Biden) has left the clear impression that he is in way over his head and that the United States was better under Trump than Biden"
Does this mean that MSN don't just post articles that are positive of Biden?

Indeed -- "Mr. Excitement" he ain't, but if this is what "conservative" is, suddenly it doesn't seem so... problematic.

Not to mention who gets his microphone cut off when he starts talking gibberish.

Undermining and ignoring election results as voted by the people will finish the USA.

Destroying the economy, along with the dollar, and our alliances with other countries would help things along to that end.

Superficially, I don't know a darn thing about Biden's opinion on SNL or any other TV show, because he's not up at 2 a.m. (or any time) tweeting about how they're being mean to him.

Substantially, we actually have a president who is taking ending this pandemic seriously, rather than floating dangerous alternative 'treatments' like ingesting cleaning products to treat it.

I'm sure others can come up with more examples, but those are two right off the top of my head.

Better? I thought we were still having spikes in COViD cases? What has he actually done to make it better? He's allowing thousands and thousands of unvaccinated people into this cou try. How us that helping?

You are lying about the cleaning products.

Immigrants across the southern boarder aren't the cause of the Covid infection spikes in USA.
The density of infected people is higher in USA than it is outside of USA.
Spikes are occuring in USA due to Delta and due to many Trump/Republican supporters who are refusing to get vaccinated. Biden and his admin are emploring people to get vaccinated, even if that means saving lives of people who will vote Republican.

I'd really like to know where out lives are actually better due to Biden and the democrats.

Let's see, COVID is still a problem everywhere.
My money is worth less all the time.
Healthcare is still an issue.
The big cities still have tons of violence problems.
The world no longer trusts us due to what Biden did in Afghanistan.
Thousands and thousands of illegals are pouring into the country.
Employers are still short workers.
My kids are being told they are racist cause they are white.

You don't think thousands and thousands of unvaccinated immigrants will have any effect? How is that only the unvaccinated Americans matter?
