> the perception of political decision making

The what? More like "the whims of an eighty year old in cognitive decline and those wishing to curry or keep his favor" - quite an expansive definition of "political decision making".

The previous administration was totally not exactly what's described here...

It wasn’t. Biden largely didn’t do much. The trump administration does illegal things that get struck down in courts on a daily basis. We’re all very desensitized to it.

But yes, Biden was old and cognitively not well. But his “whims” didn’t exist much, and they were always fairly reasonable. Trump is the most unreasonable president, most likely in US history. I would even categorize Andrew Jackson as more restrained.

The courts struck down many Biden policies as well. People just give those a pass because "SCOTUS is rigged" or something...

The only big one I remember is the college loan forgiveness thing.

That would be your politics coloring your memory.

Ah, so those weren’t mostly 6-3 decisions along partisan lines?

Don't forget the blatant grift and corruption.
