President Biden responds to Sen. Kyrsten Sinema's (D-AZ) refusal to nuke filibuster to pass voting rights bill: "I hope we can get this done. The honest-to-God answer is I don’t know if we can get this done."

    Can you imagine if a republican tried to pull this shit on Trump? They'd be stochastically cremated within a week from all the tweets.

    It’s amazing. Just a string of humiliating defeats for sleepy joe.

    Imagine a republican doing this, being the deciding vote to cross the aisle and block a major piece of the sitting president’s agenda. You know who the last guy that did that is? John McCain. And what did that get him? Fucking DEAD

      Are they really defeats? He doesn't exactly have a track record of wanting to help poor people, workers, the sick, old, and minorities.

      Seems like he just doesn't want to do any of this shit, and the game is to say "look at this amazing agenda I have" and then you point at Joe Manchin and go "that mean guy won't let me do it".

      Biden showed with Afghanistan he's the "don't give a fuck" guy. That was the one good thing he ever did in his miserable wretched life; now he's using the same attitude to wreck human life on the planet.

        Yeah, it was just his turn at the CIA to get the President role given to him to carry out the foreign policy the CIA wants to happen.

        Everything else he does is beside the point.

      If I was born 10,000 years ago and I was far wiser than any human being who has ever lived - I still wouldn't understand people like Biden.

      Did you see the "monsters" post - https://hexbear.net/post/166531/comment/2047653 ?

      No, we don't want goddamned bunny rabbits and ice cream - you fuckers. We want you to do your job. To begin with - you should have been giving Americans free N95 masks and free tests last year.

          You can see the seething disdain they have for normal people manifest itself.

          What bothers me is that libs either can't (or won't) see what we see. They'll claim she was being sarcastic to the media. I wish a reporter had said...

          "Does the president also think normal people don't deserve more? If so - that would explain his 34% approval rate. Are you and the president on the same page?"

          Of course that would never happen. The reporters in that room are useless.

      I'd like to know that too. I got so sick of last year's typical dem excuse also parroted by redditors - "The dems have a razor-thin majority..."

      I assume the pod Johns are ahead of the curve with this year's excuse.

      Hellworld isn't in a jovial mood. But maybe the nightmare elections of this year will break Biden's brain. There's always hope.
