I don't get how libs can tolerate being taken for granted like this. They're not being mature or practical - they're accepting mistreatment by an establishment sworn to serve them.

Trump and his supporters aren't better, but at least he's telling them what they want to hear. He at least made sure to get checks out to people and had his signature stamped on them.

I dunno, at least there's a strategy there. And Biden has had four fucking years and he's done nothing to get people motivated to vote or even register to vote. Not even going into his participation in genocide, it's just a lack of strategy to the point of self-sabotage.

And the entire Democratic party is complicit in all of it. It's like they want to lose, because all I'm hearing are about how bad trump is/was. And it's like, I was fucking there. And after three years, all they can offer is to give him a verbal reprimand and coverage on every major news network, speech, and social media posting.

It's just mind-blowing to think of the wasted time and energy on the part of the US political system.

        He could have gone back on it and said he thinks america needs to stay and keep fighting the Taliban.

      Begrudgingly because Trump had already signed a treaty with the talliban saying we'd withdraw on that date hoping to fuck Biden over.

      Literally rhe one good thing he did was out of his control if he didn't want to basically restart the war anew.

          True but that would have been a pretty on the nose example of ripping up a contract we already signed.

          Not that that's ever stopped us before but that would give the talliban carte Blanche to do whatever the fuck they wanted to anybody who wasn't mainlining nato press releases.
