When President-elect Joe Biden addressed the nation Monday evening, he said the word "democracy" nine times. He accused President Trump of "an unprecedented assault on our democracy," declared that "democracy prevailed" and in his final words said: "May God protect our troops and all those who stand watch over our democracy."

The speech came after the Electoral College confirmed his election victory, a result unchanged by weeks of court challenges. It also pointed to a larger theme of his coming presidency.

Biden has vowed to rescue democratic institutions from partisan dysfunction. He has pledged to be the president for all Americans — a population that includes Americans who voted for Donald Trump because they felt the system was failing, and also Americans who felt Trump was a symptom of its failure.

How might Biden restore faith in that system? He may be able to draw some lessons from a president Biden often says he wants to emulate: Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

Biden, his staff and his surrogates have publicly compared their challenge to those facing FDR, when the 32nd president assumed office. This moment, Biden said on CNN on December 4, was "not unlike what happened in 1932," the year of FDR's election in the middle of the Great Depression. Then, as now, Biden said, many Americans have "real anxiety" about their place in a changing economy.

FDR historian Robert Dallek says that Roosevelt himself saw his challenge as a fight for democracy."

As a result of dealing with the affects of the deplorable tRump great depression to which over 500,000 Americans lost their lives as a result of tRump's lawlessly hacked in mission to destroy Democracy from within, etc., it appears a form of relief has arrived with the election of a legitimate and Constitutionally compliant POTUS Biden. This includes President Biden's policies I believe are similar to what President Franklin D. Roosevelt and President L. B. Johnson dealt with as a result of epic atrocities they inherited as a fight to defend Democracy against both foreign and internal enemies.

Biden could well be another LBJ. That is, in his first term, he so enrages the nation that it's on the brink of civil war, destroys the economy, emboldens America's enemies, and basically fucks everything up. That's why LBJ didn't bother to run for a second term. His presidency was an unmitigated disaster.

As for FDR, without WW 2, FDR would likely have gotten a second term and been finished. The economy wouldn't have recovered like it did without the war and FDR's massive spending along with things like trying court packing, would have gotten him little traction otherwise.

Someone who always shows up like a gapped legged whore, I would hardly consider relevant in terms of expressing decent and factual insights into things but something that should be considered as a typical sleazy troll.

Then prove me wrong with something factual rather than ad hominem and insults.
 
The Revolution is literally working to rub out America, but they will say anything, there is only power.

Biden is no FDR nor is he striving to be.
 
I wonder if Biden has tapes of himself out there saying ... "we'll have those dumb !$!@!@#$ out there voting Democrat for the next 200 years!" ? Just like LBJ did.

Well, they were racist/fascist psychopaths, so deranged rapist and deeply racist Biden is definitely in familiar company there...

Technically speaking, Johnsons first term was the remains of Kennedy's term, and he then won reelection by one of the biggest proportions ever.

As for FDR, without WW 2, FDR would likely have gotten a second term and been finished.

FDR was elected to a third term before the USA entered WWII.

The right wing claims Johnson said that, but there is little evidence he did. In fact, his actual recorded statements was that he had just lost the South for Democrats, but it was still the right thing to do. And as we saw, he was right, he did lose the Solid South.
 
In terms of a more optimistic outlook when it comes to the U.S. economy and its global position versus atrocities of the former un American tRump insurgency and a curse on the global economy:

With stimulus cash and jobs spike, U.S. emerges as main engine for global economic recovery

The robust U.S. economic recovery this year is expected to be good news for factory workers, freight handlers and farmers.

Factory workers in China. Freight handlers in the Netherlands. And farmers in Germany.

Amid steady progress with coronavirus vaccinations, the U.S. economy is gathering so much steam that its gains will not stay at home. Demand for goods and services this year is expected to spill well beyond U.S. borders, making the United States the largest single contributor to global growth for the first time since 2005, according to Oxford Economics.

The U.S. ascent ends — at least for now — China’s long reign as the principal engine powering the $90 trillion global economy.

Free spending by the Biden administration — coupled with the Federal Reserve’s ultralow interest rates — is driving the nascent U.S. boom and lifting other countries, where governments have not responded as aggressively to the pandemic. As Americans spent their $600 government stimulus checks in January on furniture, laptops and clothing, the U.S. imported a record $221 billion worth of goods. And that was before a round of $1,400 checks in March."

Yup, that’s when they figured out war can do wonders for an economy and it gave birth to the Military Industrial Complex. It’s been with us ever since.
