Winter’s not so much supporting Biden as he’s supporting ‘not Trump’. Some deeper considerations aside, I’m OK with that.

I'm supporting justice, and neither candidates are able to achieve it,
But the lesser evil is Biden in my opinion. He can pulverize Trump's filthy new world order.
He gets my support for now because if Trump continued; it will be a massacre especially in my region.

No, Biden won’t ‘pulverize Trump’s filthy new world order’ - he can’t. At most, he can stop the bleeding and slow the descent into utter chaos, but there’s been far too much damage done to be fixed in four or eight years.

It's going to be a long, long time for this country to recover from Trump and Company...if ever.

I expect you’ll recover. Yanks, for all their bad press, are nothing if not resilient. It may take a generation or so, but you’ll be fine.

Well, as has been noted on this board, I am old and a generation from now won't be something I witness. I can only hope for my grandkids that it does get better.

The world built after World War 2 is only about 80 years old, so the current period is only a transitional period; or let me say it's too early to judge the success any of the new world orders both candidates are presenting. Maybe the world is not turning into a populous hole like Trump thought.
Trump's vision is very chaotic and self-centered on selfish powers (like Putin's Russia, The Sauds, the UAE, Israel...etc), while Biden's vision is more about "making America great".
The views of Biden is presenting the classic image of America as a super power controlling the globe, while Trump's view is "to get the fuck out and leave the globe to its destiny".
I totally believe that you never leave a mess you made an run; don't run -like Trump want- and get back to clean your mess.
Yemen wasn't burned alone; it was burned through American weapons handled to the Sauds.
Shiite Iran didn't invade Iraq alone, but it was given to it by the U.S.A.
MBS didn't come to power alone; but the U.S gave him protection under Trump.
Yep, Biden can't stop all this mess, but he can at least fix what Trump did to some degree. And I hope that would lead to fixing the American mistakes in general concerning foreign policy.

Biden not only cant fix that - he's been vocal about not wanting to fix it. Let it rot on the vine.
