#410 โ€“ Ben Shapiro vs Destiny Debate: Politics, Jan 6, Israel, Ukraine & Wokeism

I don't see how on any metric he is ever succeeding in the divisive category. In terms of the economy, I do think it's funny that Republicans are very keen to say that, well, we can't really grade Trump post-COVID, because obviously COVID messed everything up, which is fair. But pre-COVID, What did Trump do? He did deficit spending tax cuts.

He presided over historic low interest rates and an economy that was already blazing past the final years of Obama. We were posting all-time highs on all the stock markets in 2013 onwards. Unemployment rates were falling. Now under Biden, unemployment rates are even lower than they were under Trump. But it sucks that for Trump, we can say, well, we can't really hold him accountable for 2020.

That was COVID. Well, all we have for Biden is post-COVID. We don't have any pre-COVID Biden economy. And it was the same thing for Obama, too, coming in right after the housing collapse as well. And it sucks that Republicans are able to walk out of office having burned the entire American society to the ground economically. And now we've got to try to evaluate, OK, well,

What did Obama do during his first two to three to four years just trying to recover from where the housing crash left it? And then we look at Biden now, who's trying to recover from COVID, and now we're grading him on a totally different scale than what Trump is being graded on. Yeah, that sucks, I think.

On the foreign policy, I'm going to be honest, I am very liberal. I'm very not progressive. I'll probably come off as more hawkish than others because I'm not a big fan of this, which also, if Ben agrees, I think people like Trump are going to be the most dovish, isolationist people ever. They don't want to do anything internationally. They just want to

protect America, be at home, protect our economy, don't do anything internationally, which is why he was constantly undermining NATO and constantly attacking the European Union and cheering on the UK for Brexiting away from the EU. I think that being said, I think that Biden has done a phenomenal job when it comes to foreign policy.

I think that the coalition building was so important for Ukraine-Russia, and I'm so happy that he decided to go to our European allies and our NATO allies and try to build a coalition of people to help Ukraine so that that wasn't only the United States.
