 GD> Your Democrat bias is showing again, your words - Biden has been a lot

It is my bias for truth and facts that is showing.

 GD> Don't take my word for it, just look at the facts. 

 GD> Name me another President Democrat or Republican.

 GD> Who else had the courage to stop foreign countries (namely China) to
 GD> continuously rip off the United States of America, with respect to
 GD> Trade.

I do not know all the facts on China, it is complex.

 GD> Who else fixed the tax code so that WE as Americans keep to keep
 GD> more of our hard earned money. 

Not that much more.  He fixed the tax code so that his billionaire
buddies got to keep a *LOT* more of their earnings.

 GD> Name me another President where the stock market has soared breaking
 GD> its own record multiple times within 4 year term. 

The stock market rose at a higher average rate under Obama than under
Trump.  Obama inherited a crash because of Bush policies that drove the
stock market down to about 6600.  When he turned over the Presidency to
Trump it had risen steadily to 19800, an increase by a factor of 2.99
over a period of about 95 months, which equates to 1.16% per month
compounded monthly.  Last stock market price is 29,999 -- an increase by a
factor of 1.51 over a period of just under 48 months, which equates to
0.8% per month compounded monthly.  In other words Trump inherited a
strong market and did not get it to increase at the same rate as it had
done under Obama.  All of this discussion ignores the fact that only the
more affluent part of the population has any stake in the stock market.

 GD> Can you recall a previous President of the U.S. that has done all of
 GD> the above and has not collected a salary. 

It is true that Trump says he has donated his salary.  It is also true
that previous statements of his donations to charity have been false.
It is also true that he has earned far more than his salary by his
charges to the federal government for using his various private
facilities.  It is also true that his donations for "help overturn the
election fund" have put more than 100 million into funds that he can use
for what ever he pleases.  I.e. giving up $400,000 yearly salary pales
in comparison to the money he has raked in via other means based on his
office.

 GD> Your response to should prove to be interesting.

I hope it was interesting and enlightening for you.
