The publication defends the columnist who belittled the academic career of Jill Biden while referring to her as "kiddo" by saying political strategists played the gender card to stifle criticism of the incoming first lady.

A very large slice of the US wanted Trump to remain in Power and now that Biden is about to take the mantle of office so the hate the leader campaigns will ramp up as usual
Obama was loved and despised same for Trump and it will be the same for Biden and Harris , the right in the US wanted a strong tough unforgiving leader who unlike Obama who was a consumate politician and did nothing of note except allow the US to slide from a position of power to a position of being seen as weak , Trump was never a politician he lacked every single facet of such a being he was however able to tackle the Chinese , tackle the Iranians , and put Putin on his guard he elevated the strategic position of the US , Biden IMO will weaken it again
What they call Mrs Biden is of no interest to me at all , what they did to Mrs. Obama or Mrs Trump was an example of how low the politics of the US has become

I disagree... You need to do the actual math.
There are around 255 million Americans over the age of 18.
75 million voted for Trump
81 million voted for Biden.
Trump got 29% of the vote.
Biden got 31% of the vote.
The remaining 40% - which is the majority - wanted neither or didn't care.

Where is this statement coming from? Putin was free to murder his enemies freely - or at least try - all over the world.
He rigged his own re-election (for REAL, not just the cries of a loser tantrum) without consequence.
Meanwhile Trump did not intimidate any dictators. He cosied up to them and gave them whatever they wanted, even stabbing allies in the back (literally when it comes to the Kurds) to do it.
He alienated allies and made the US the butt of every joke on the planet.
How did that Make America Great Again?

Thank you Teacher so in the end 75 million voted for Trump as I said a very large slice of the US wanted Trump
I believe that the KEY is that 40% wanted neither and this I can also understand .

Nobody murders freely when states are involved there is a cost politically to pay whether it is Russia or Saudi Arabia etc
I have no truck for Putin who is a corrupt ice cold strategist with a deep understanding of his enemies , he is somebody you dont want to upset .
Trump played his cards to the NK and his demands for denuclearization did not pay off but he tried , the Kurds will survive I am sure we are supplying them with US arms and I am sure they are giving us pinpoint details about Syria and Iran
I repeat Trump was not a Politician he was a mover and shaker he has no political training and IMO cares little for the claptrap of politics .
I guess 75 million Americans see things differently from you

No, this is "how cancel culture works".
One of the finest high schools in san francisco is set to be renamed. The claim 'now' is because of his treatment of American indians, yet, this is the actual quote on Dec 14; https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/san-francisco-lincoln-blm/
The source for the numerous headlines reporting that the liberal Bay Area city was set on changing the name of Lincoln High because Lincoln didn’t show “Black lives matter” comes from a single quote from Jeremiah Jeffries, the chair of San Francisco Unified School District’s School Names Advisory Committee. He was quoted by the San Francisco Chronicle in a Dec. 14, 2020, article on the subject with the following remark:
“Lincoln, like the presidents before him and most after, did not show through policy or rhetoric that Black lives ever mattered to them outside of human capital and as casualties of wealth building.”
Your example? boo hoo, jill biden is offended...............
