What a useless interviewer. "I asked Biden what he would do in a second term to protect abortion access at the federal level"
WHY DON'T YOU ASK HIM WHAT HE COULD DO NOW, AS AN ACTUALLY EXISTING PRESIDENT?!
He's forgiven loans for another 25 people so I'm really not sure what more you commies want from him.
Another 4000 years and we'll have the student debt crisis reasonably and pragmatically managed.
The Student debt crisis which HE PERSONALLY CREATED THROUGH HIS OWN ACTIONS BY CHAMPIONING AND PASSING THE BILL THAT MADE IT ILLEGAL TO DISCHARGE YOUR STUDENT DEBT.
I cannot cannot cannot cannot cannot understand why anyone believed he would fix this thing, HE DID IT. IT'S HIS LEGACY. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
*forgiven those 25 by applying the law that should have already forgiven said amounts
I know that was just the pudding dripping out his ear, but that sure was a wacky thing to say and if the DNC had a shred of consistency, that would have put them in a weird spot.
If it was a real promise, it should have been done in the first term, in order to not look weak if for whatever reason, he doesn't make it to a second.
This is true of any issue he campaigned on last time, like legal weed
fuck i forgot about that lmao. i love that everyone was immediately like "okay cap, we know that's not gonna happen, what else ya got?"
Excellent political instinct as the "harm reduction" candidate to announce your opposition to the concept of bodily autonomy. Eager to see how the Dems will attempt to claim that he misspoke or something.
"I don't agree with the right to choose, but it's the politically expedient position, Jack!"
I haven't heard them bring that up in a while. Now it's just "yes, he is objectively evil, but trump is double evil!"
The weird thing is I don’t think I ever actually heard him stutter. He speaks incoherently and says inappropriate things but he doesn’t repeat the first sounds of his words. It never really made sense as an excuse.
I've seen a couple of clips of him legit stuttering, but they're from like 30 years ago. "He has a stutter" sure, but he seems to have figured it out decades ago.
Maybe he stutters whenever he sees the ghost of a dead french politician? Kinda like Shaggy in Scooby-Doo.
It would explain the whole Mitterand thing.
beginning to sense that voting for him isn't about harm reduction so much as culpability reduction. the exact same shit will happen either way, it'll just be someone else's fault.
he's anti-choice on bodily autonomy and Democratic Presidential primaries
Sorry sweaty, nobody OWES you a primary. You have to vote for it
In the primary but then when the general comes around we all have to fall in line behind no more primaries.
Complete inability to read the room. It’s not 1992, the kind of voters he’s trying not to alienate with this shit have been dead for a decade and change.
It’s not 1992...
Maybe (very?) soon Biden says "President Clinton is workin' to solve this problem. And I as senator am doing my part. Hold on. That doesn't sound right. Not at all. I feel funny. Does anybody else smell burning rubber?"
The absolute masterclass in politics of Joe Biden coming out right now and clarifying that he's begrudgingly pro choice from a polical expediency stand point but against it personally.
"you have to have a public and private position"
-Hillary "most qualified person ever but still lost to a game show host that she amplified" Clinton
The emperor not only has no clothes, he is shitting himself while waggling his robinette around on k street.
The emperor is loudly declaring that he has no clothes and anybody who says he does is a dog faced pony soldier, followed by 48 hours of MSNBC saying anybody who says Biden has no clothes is a Russian shill.
I could shoot every policy you libs care about in broad daylight and not lose any of your votes(Because you believe in nothing)
Biden once voted for a constitutional amendment to overturn Roe v Wade btw.
Holy shit, do you have a source for that? I gotta keep that in the back pocket, for arguments with libs
https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/us-politics/biden-roe-v-wade-overturned-b2072143.html
Here's the historical NYT article about it: https://www.nytimes.com/1982/03/11/us/abortion-curbs-endorsed-10-7-by-senate-panel.html
Democrats did this "abortion is a right but I morally object to it" song and dance for decades. Biden's mummified brain can't read the room and understand that excuse isn't important anymore.
"It's just my personal belief, it won't effect my decision making" okay cool how about you just shut your fucking mouth about it then? You're talking to a reporter not pleading your case in the court of almighty judgement.
"I guess I'll do the right thing but I want to make it really clear I'm doing it for political reasons and wanna make sure everybody knows I'm still on the wrong side of history and this isn't a firmly held belief."
Why don’t these people ever die
Also you’d have to be a fucking dumbass to believe this dems controlled senate house and pres when roe was repealed
These people always have the shittiest takes and don't even explain why lmao. You don't think people should have autonomy over their bodies...why?
"i have no principles and if I did, they would be wrong."
Are you telling me that an octogenarian conservative catholic who was best buddies with Strom Thurmond has absolutely dogshit opinions about women's bodily autonomy?
Color me surprised.
Don't forget the 4 years after that where libs insist we handed Trump the presidency because we didn't like that Biden was old.
It's the "but her emails" of a hip new generation.
