...there's no need to go further.

You should have gone further. He explained why those weren't "mendacious lies", and then refuted every point you made. To put it bluntly, he thrashed your post with verifiable facts and data. Instead of engaging in conversation, perhaps attempting to find errors in his post, you just posted a one-liner dismissive which didn't really contribute anything.

I think your view is colored by what you see in Seattle. The other poster provided national data, but I think you are mostly seeing Seattle policies that result in more open drug use and vagrancy in downtown Seattle. I can understand that, especially if you're confronted with it daily. But Seattle is not the entire nation. Maybe Seattle is screwed up; I dunno. But the facts of the Biden successes in this first term are quantifiable and verifiable. At least the ones the other poster mentioned are.

As is the Republican preference for corporate socialism, as the other poster explained. Not that Dems are immune to that since corporations are big campaign contributors, and Dems want to get reelected, too. Reps may not favor socialism that benefits the common man (e.g. universal health care), but they are totally on-board with privatizing profits and socializing losses for Big <insert industry here>.
