Distressing new video shows zombie-like addicts stumbling along sidewalks strewn with burning rubbish at the epicentre of the “tranq” epidemic.

Not sure what this has to do with Trump, or any other past, present, or future president. None of them seem to give a shit about the homeless or addicted. Certainly not Trump. He only cares about himself.

Trump would have tried to do something about this decline, america has gone so far backwards since the 2020 election it's not funny, the decline has been so rapid under the Biden administration.

How has America declined and how do you know? You've posted random vids of drug addicts and homelessness, all of which have been apparent in the US for decades.

Andy everyone can see the decline under the Biden administration, it's not fake news.

Nope. I know you wont read this article on Biden so here are some exerts from an article this year. If not for the Republicans the safety net would be better and maybe homeless rate too.

The result, in part, was the fastest-growing economy in decades. The nation’s gross domestic product surged by roughly 6 percent — a level not seen since the 1980s — as the unemployment rate plummeted and the number of new small businesses soared. The president is fond of emphasizing that the United States has had the fastest recovery among the Group of Seven industrialized Western economies, which he and many economists attribute to the rescue plan. And growth has powered on for two years, including 2023 so far.

Another core plank of “Bidenomics” has been to try to mute the power of large corporations, particularly by breaking up monopolies and cracking down on “junk fees.”

The least successful part of Bidenomics has arguably been the president’s attempts to expand the U.S. safety net.
Biden spent much of 2021 trying to persuade Sen. Joe Manchin III (D-W.Va.) to approve the biggest expansion of social programs since the 1960s, including new child care benefits, housing subsidies for the poor and new dental benefits for seniors. Manchin ultimately blocked the president’s “Build Back Better” proposal, although some elements were included in the Inflation Reduction Act that passed in 2022.
That law included several new health care provisions: measures to lower prescription drug costs for people on Medicare, a new cap on insulin payments, and a two-year extension of bigger subsidies for families who buy health insurance on the Affordable Care Act’s exchanges. The Biden administration has taken other actions to expand the safety net — including making food stamps more generous for millions of Americans and making it easier for children to stay on Medicaid — although they remain far from the large-scale change the president initially sought.

Well that's good news on the economic front if true but I was referring to the social decline of america.

Not a bad read, and I don't disagree with it. The US is very socially and politically divided. As it's a Trump thread, he seemed to fuel that division further than any president I can remember. Look at his election lies and the events of Jan 6. Remember when Biden came to power and went out of his way to try and unite. Republicans wouldn't have a bar of it.
