Allegations of poor planning?
Why should that be included in the article when it's common knowledge that any "planning" or lackthereof, is the responsibility of the previous administration that made this deal in the first place and DIDN'T plan for contingencies for american troops or afghan refugees. --50.69.20.91 (talk) 16:48, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
- The Biden administration had over half a year to plan. Let's not pretend that the withdrawal was on January 22, 2021. RS noted the criticism of poor planning. starship.paint (exalt) 06:43, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- Over a year to plan when they haven't even been in Office for a year? Really? --50.69.20.91 (talk) 02:24, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- He's saying it was over half a year, not over a year. Larry Hockett (Talk) 02:43, 8 October 2021 (UTC)

Approval Ratings
Both Obama and Trump have sections discussing their approval ratings; I did a CTRL+F search for approval, and Biden's ratings are nowhere to be seen. Also, on the Trump page, there is a section designated to post-inauguration protests. We've seen anti-Biden protests all over. It seems like we're trying to put Biden in a good spotlight and Trump in a bad one. I vote we immediately add these sections as to comply with WP:Neutrality and our anti-Bias policies. Dswitz10734 (talk) 13:52, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- care to provide some RS indicating these are noteworthy?Slatersteven (talk) 13:57, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- Dswitz10734 (ec) Discussion of Biden's approval ratings is in the article about his presidency itself and its own article, because he is currently president. See Presidency of Joe Biden#Approval ratings and image as well as 2021 opinion polling on the Joe Biden administration. 331dot (talk) 13:57, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
- As for anti-Biden protests, you are free to write and propose an addition to this article or other relevant article about that. There is an article about 2021 United States inauguration week protests; an article about Public image of Joe Biden where discussion of other protests might be appropriate. 331dot (talk) 14:00, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
Mention Economic supply chain delays etc
Also add inflation, unemployment etc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8805:C980:9400:1C2E:831F:CAEE:8765 (talk) 03:05, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
- It must be in the body first before you even consider the lede. starship.paint (exalt) 03:25, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
- BBC - seems that shortages are hitting several countries, not just U.S. BBC says port-related issues (but affected ports have moved to 24/7) and
shortages have also been caused by ongoing Covid-related problems in other countries
. So why blame Biden? starship.paint (exalt) 07:31, 19 October 2021 (UTC)- Because the OP is probably a partisan. The poll numbers of presidents are often affected by things outside of their direct control, both for good and bad. There might be ways to discuss slipping poll numbers in this article or other Biden related articles, such as Presidency of Joe Biden#Approval ratings and image. 331dot (talk) 08:37, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
Nope I am not not a partisan but let me guess if this was happening under Trump you would be typing it's his fault. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-10-21/biden-tackles-supply-chain-crisis-with-few-tools-clock-ticking https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/10/14/joe-biden-supply-chain/
- Please read wp:lede, it is a summary of OUR article, it is not a leader.Slatersteven (talk) 17:29, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
Opinion articles Left or right should be RS
Yes and I have posted numerous reliable sources proving my points. Please think rationally. 137.49.109.224 (talk) 17:30, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
- A read wp:npa B Your response does not answer or address my (or indeed anyone elses point). You have been told why this can't be added to the lede.Slatersteven (talk) 17:33, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
- If you want to talk about the Trump article or articles, please do so there. Here, we are talking about the Biden article. 331dot (talk) 17:37, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
I changed the body, numerous reliable sources, Washington Post, Bloomberg etc have placed the blame on biden and content needs to be added to article, Unless you are a partisan137.49.109.224 (talk) 17:36, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
- Why does it need to be added to the lede, this is about him, not his presidency.Slatersteven (talk) 17:37, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
- And open of your own sources says "global supply chain problems", your own sources do not say its bidens fault.Slatersteven (talk) 17:38, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
- All this might change in 6 weeks, this is why we should not add it to the lede.Slatersteven (talk) 17:39, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hold on now, I thought you said Washington Post is not a reliable source. clpo13(talk) 17:40, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
Let's go Brandon Chant
I propose the following addition to the page:
In October 2021, a video went viral following numerous reports of people chanting "fuck Joe Biden" at sports events began surfacing around September in protest of President Joe Biden and often to show support for former President Donald Trump. In early October people started using the phrase "Let's Go Brandon" in place of "fuck Joe Biden" to criticize and joke about the President. On October 3rd, Donald Trump Jr. posted, "Great to see real America representing loud and proud. 'Let’s go, Brandon!'" along with photos of people holding a "fuck Joe Biden" flag, gaining over 51,000 likes and 8,400 retweets (shown below). On October 4th, Brown tweeted, "Let’s go Brandon," adding in a comment, "not political… just feelin myself," gaining over 15,300 likes and 2,000 retweets in two days.[1] The "Let's Go Brandon" phrase have been used by The Daily Wire founded by conservative pundit Ben Shapiro, Ted Cruz and Turning Point USA. [2] Jd1schroeder (talk) 18:59, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- Well, that content is completely unacceptable because you copy/pasted it from Know Your Meme and we can't plagiarize. As to the "let's go Brandon" chant in general, why should this be added to this page when it isn't even on Public image of Joe Biden? – Muboshgu (talk) 19:10, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- Don't add to the article. GoodDay (talk) 19:13, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- Yeah this is at the most, suitable for public image or presidency, that's it. A small issue. starship.paint (exalt) 01:32, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- I agree that this issue speaks to the suitability or public image of the President, but I disagree on your quote that this being a small issue. Literally every major news agency in the world has published an article regarding the use of the chant, a song was made and became the #1 trending song on iTunes in the United States, and the mind-numbing speed at which this chant has gone viral on every social media platform speaks volumes.74.219.135.195 (talk) 15:36, 21 October 2021 (UTC)

- So? I do not see what this adds.Slatersteven (talk) 15:39, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- It hasn't received sufficient attention in major reliable sources. Suggest you stop reading the Daily Wire because it provides a non-mainstream emphasis on fringe views and stories that have little or no coverage in reliable sources. TFD (talk) 15:50, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
