    Best thing Obama did was pulling out of Iraq, finally leaving an illegal war, so hats off for that. But all his talk about envisioning a world free of nuclear weapons and then not even attempting disarmament of the US ones kinda seems weak.

      Kudos to Obama for actually following through, but the withdrawal from Iraq had a deadline set by the U.S. Status of Forces Agreement signed by Bush, per the request of the Iraqi government.

      I think his attempts to reestablish new diplomacy with Cuba and Iran were good.

      Then Trump fucked it all up and Biden doesn’t seem to give a shit about going back.
