Yeah, it was horrible. No war in the Ukraine, no war in Israel, houses were affordable and gas was under $2/gal. Absolutely despicable.
Besides what you have already been told, there already was war in both Ukraine and Israel. Ukraine's open military conflict with Russia has been active since at least 2014, and Israel has been in conflict with Palestine and neighbours since its foundation following WW2.
Wesern media not covering them until it was relevant to the US national interests and them not happening are entirely different things.
Yes, Russia invaded Crimea during Obama's administration. Then, magically, during four years of Trump, they didn't do anything. As soon as Biden comes into office, they're back at it again. Weird how that works.
There were also no major incidents in Israel or Gaza during his term. Definitely no full scale invasion. Oh, but those mean tweets!
Sorry about your friend, but I'm pretty sure a lot more Ukrainians died since Biden came into office than during Trump's term.
