he gets the number of kids shot dead at Kent State wrong as well, claiming seventeen were shot dead. (four were killed, nine injured)
Bill Clinton in 1992: “I feel your pain.”
Joe Biden in 2018 “I have zero empathy for you.”
And it's fucking IN-SANE how he's neck and neck with Trump. I keep coming back to this is one of the worst elections ever, between Mr. Nothing Will Fundamentally Change and Mr. I'm A Literal Fascist Who Wants To Put Trans People In Death Camps. How can you not just despair over this?
bro just bro the lesser evil will magically stop being evil if we
I'm A Literal Fascist Who Wants To Put Trans People In Death Camps
Literally "I Want To Put Trans People In Death Camps" vs "I Will Not Stop Anyone Putting Trans People In Death Camps"
Shaking my head as I guard the concentration camp to show that I disapprove of the policy
Biden's public persona of being a doddering old fool undercuts what he also is: an easily angered and self-destructively stubborn man. He has always devolved into a threat-maker and insult-thrower by the slightest criticism, whether from a journalist or a member of the public.
Whether it's "Listen, fat," or when he threatened to throw a guy's phone or when he responded to a black news anchor asking him about cognitive tests with something like "Why don't we make you take a cocaine test!" Biden is exceptionally ornery, and incapable of being reasoned with when in that state.
That is why there was that expose article about how Biden's inner circle is neolib/neocon lackeys like Joe Scarborough and Larry Summers, while savvy staffers more cognizant of his actual perception by the public are reluctant to clue him into any upsetting realities, lest Biden chews them out and sidelines them.
I know that ex-Trump staffers said that Presinald Trunt would often outright shout that he was going to have them executed or jailed, but I think the impotent cartoonishness of such threats is less menacing than when Biden gets in your face and grits his teeth and growls out in hushed tones a genuine and feasible consequence.
: “Yeah but….his segregationist beliefs aren’t TOP PRIORITY at the moment so clearly he’s an SJW that’s lost his edge!”

It's funny to me (in a sad way) how this shit is the only way to see Biden becoming lucid and coherent
Man slurs and stumbles and mumbles his way around 90% of the time, but the moment anyone pushes back he goes into full attack dog mode before reverting to brain pudding ten minutes later
The guy was always a massive piece of shit, and now he's a massive piece of shit that doesn't know what year it is
And then a short time later, an absolutely massive amount of those exact young people voted for him. He could come out and directly say “This is a message to the youth. I will not make your life better. I will only expand wars and keep the money flowing up.” And then MILLIONS of young voters would vote for him. I can’t think about it too hard or else it kind of breaks my brain
It makes more sense if you think of it as votes against Trump rather than votes for Biden.
There's a bit of amnesia around Trump's administration, people like to remember him as "mean tweets" guy and not for his thermobaric bomb fetish, or how he would nonchalantly launch attacks on Syria without congressional approval first.
Because those are the bits that liberals thought he was statesman-like for
Anderson Cooper having a very real moment live on CNN after Trump ordered a MOAB strike on a random cave system in Afghanistan
Isn't it neat how we can't criticize past presidents, Clinton, Bush, Obama, Trump for war crimes without someone saying "what about current president".
Mark my words, after we have a new president suddenly we won't be able to say "Genocide Joe" without someone going "yeah like [current president] is so different".
I'm not trying to stop you from criticizing any president, they should all burn in eternal hellfire
Exactly. Remember all those wealthy seal-clapping dbags dancing in the streets for this Iraq war whip piece of shit?
And liberals would defend it with "sure he might have explicitly said he'd do those thing but I imagine Trump would be worse even though he was already president once and it wasnt"
Project 2025 will get a number of them but majority have never heard of it or care. They just know Trump bad and equals Hitler. Biden good and equals Obama and Obama best president ever. Make funny memes and go on tv.
my student loans are in forebearance. whens the forgiveness joe?
sorry Supreme Court said no to the method everyone said was the weakness route possible so we're not going to do anything except forgive those that should have been forgiven years ago
why aren't people happy this is how I'm doing forgiveness
those checks will go out the door as soon as Ossoff and Warnock win their elections
Joe Biden's policies have made my life WORSE and he gave me the finger while doing it. Why should I vote for you, asshole.
He's never apologized for this by the way and if you bring it up liberals excuse is literally "don't believe your lying eyes and ears"
I love the little lemmy liberals that sometimes pop up into threads like these to drop some super fucking obscure "win" Biden did like capping the price of insulin to $169 for women who own a teacup dog grooming salon in a developing neighborhood northwest of a river and five miles south of an interstate MOTHER FUCKER JUST GIVE PEOPLE STIMULUS CHECKS.
Or they brag about his great student debt relief program that eliminates debt for 20 people at a time but you've never met any of them because theyngp to a different school.
It's not even his program, just enforcing laws already on the books but they treat it as him doing amazing things for people
What’s even more pathetic is that he’s STILL too far left for the Overton window.
I’m sure a good 20% of all the record inflation we’ve seen is just a 4-year long tantrum by corporate America that the friendly face of the red tie party lost and they need to convince voters to vote away the scaaaaary blue tie party.
The next time one of my lib coworkers tells me that the media doesn't give Biden credit for stuff, I'm going to show this to them.
I don't care how many children are suffering as long as I get to sniff the hair of the white ones and drop infinite bombs on the brown ones
Classic Joe.
Good thing we all and keep out the really bad people.
And this was before his brain had completely turned into soup, so imagine what he thinks now
"Lissen, Jack, Jack Kennan sep famously asp not weld you can asp for America but what American do to you. That's called A Grape Society. We lambert on the grape. Niel Arestrong on the moon. That's what kids need today. The uh the mod role models you can look to in Congress."
"Back in 19 oh 3 when I was just a lad in Scranton PA - my pappy used to say - he'd said - he used to say - he said - 'Son, kids today don't remember how hard it was during the Great Depression.' And lemme tell you even though a full course meal cost only a nickel each - every penny was hard scrabble earned. Kids today are all real lazy and don't think right because of the internet and video games..."
You know damn well that if Gloria La Riva ran with the dems and won the primaries, we’d see article after article all titled “the progressive case for Trump”.
the media were gearing up to do that shit in February 2020 when it looked like Bernie was going to lock it in, right around the time Chris Matthews was crying he'd be guillotined
well, jack, the feeling is mutual, we have no compassion and we ask no compassion from you. when our turn comes, we shall not make excuses for the terror.
