Everything associated with this President and his administration crumbles. What a perfect metaphor.
It is a harbinger of Biden's impact on the nation.

Biden is like a "Jonah" of politics, who creates disaster everywhere he goes.

President Trump wanted to pass an infrastructure bill. The Democratic Party has controlled the House of Representatives since January 2019, just after that photo was taken. Why didn't the Democratic Party propose an infrastructure bill, since all spending bills originate in the House of Representatives? Is it that they didn't want to give President Trump a win, and something to tout on the campaign trail? Likely. So, that's on your party.

Trump walked out on infrastructure negotiations because he wanted to use that as a bargaining chip to get them to drop investigations of him. Selfish shady behavior.

Trump walked away from infrastructure negotiations before they really began
After a Trump outburst, infrastructure week appears to be dead.

The Democrats didn't cooperate with the Republicans or Trump on one single thing for the entire four years of Trump's presidency.

Yet, Trump still accomplished more than Obama did in two terms.

Him tying up national business for personal benefit is corruption.

Here’s some more incompetence in regards to the state.

It’s always better to get the facts and proof before blaming someone that you don’t like, in this case because Trump.
I was responding to another poster blaming the current administration. You should get your facts straight before you jump in sideways.

You may want to look at what McConnell and others were up to during Obama’s term…

What did Trump do exactly? Still waiting for his health care solution.

When did Trump have a bill drawn by the republicans and submitted to Congress for a vote? Refresh me on this, please.

Had there been a bill to vote on and the Democrats killed it, you might have an argument and I would be on your side. Trump was too busy playing golf to do anything connected with the job he was elected to do.
