The Biden regime got the Hunter Biden laptop story suppressed. There's no difference, the Trump regime just lacks subtlety.

Whataboutism has no place in constructive discourse.

Whining about "whataboutism" is the last resort of the hypocrite.

No, it's calling out a red herring. It's a valid response in a discussion to say that your comment is not contributing to the topic at hand. Especially when your comment is not really comparable.

Strongly disagree.

I find it fascinating that USAians can not see that their two political parties are barely any different from each other. Trump is as vile as the previous lot, but with zero attempts at hiding it.

Anyway, we have a saying: you can not wake up someone pretending to be asleep.

I mean, if you think this administration is the same as the last, I recommend reading the news from a different source.

Biden had no "regime" in the Fall of 2020 because Trump was still the president.
