And that's relevant...because?
Try make some real arguments? "keep telling yourself that", "try harder" followed by "you couldn't have done better" are not arguments based on facts or rationale. They are just tantrums.
When you provide good discussion points I will reply further. Until then, I pray for you.
Did you consider despite having 5% of world's population, America had 20% of the world's COVID deaths "better"?
Well, Trump inherited a healthy economy from 8 years of Obama's effort. Biden inherited a fiasco of a pandemic that was completely mismanaged by Trump. Not really apples and apples.
A more fair comparison should be how the economy/state of the country evolves at the beginning of the presidency vs end of the presidency for each, factoring comparison to the rest of the world that share the same/equivalent challenges.
That would be a Google search engine problem, not a media problem. Google is not a media company.
^ This!

More people came out to vote against Trump than for Biden. In fact, had Trump not been the Republican nominee Biden would most likely not win.
Everything you said about Roe v. Wade proves how ignorant you are about the entire issue.
The first link was by a channel called Trump War Room, managed by Trump's 2020 Campaign. That tells us everything we need to know. It's completely fake.
The second link was an article about an interview in June '22, where Biden, when asked, predicts a mini-revolution if SCOTUS overturns Roe v. Wade. Biden wasn't telling anyone to do anything. He was predicting what people would do. That you link this to someone plotting to kill a Supreme Court justice to prevent the overturning of Roe v. Wade is not only ridiculous but also a complete failure to recognize how important the issue of abortion is to so many people.
You are welcome!
They are referring to the tesserae system. In addition to the mandatory entries every kid from 12 to 18 must enter, kids can also get additional supply of grain and oil by entering their names more times (thus increasing the chance of being reaped). Gale is 18 and has a mother and 3 little siblings, so he's taken out tesserae more than many others.

I get flu shot every year, yes. So far I get COVID booster the same time I get flu shot. So no additional work.
As long as my doctor recommends the vaccine, I think I will keep taking them. Yes.
People take flu shots every year. This doesn't seem to be much different.
I don't remember the book talking about whether Gloss and Cashmere volunteered. However, it did say that they were very close. So a more innocent view would be that Cashmere was reaped (since ladies go first), and Gloss volunteered so that he can be her ally (just like Peeta for Katniss).
A more sinister theory would be that their reaping was rigged (as well as Finnick, since you would expect District 4 to have more than 1 male victor), to:
1. Dilute the potential sponsorship that K&P could potentially get
2. Reduce the influence victors have on the general population, including the Capitol
