Waiting for all the Maga folks to fall over each other in their rush to wish Biden well…
Just had dinner with in-laws who were laughing and hoping he dies.
They can wish that I guess, but a state funeral “trumps” a failed assassination like 9 times out of 10. Kicking it in office of natural causes is some FDR shit.
Trumps in what way…?

According to Forbes "Top 15 ways Presidents and Former Presidents can die in or out of office (NUMBER ONE WILL SHOCK YOU): Assassination is not quite as tight-sick-gnarly as natural causes.
I bet they would’ve been furious if you made a joke about Trumps mosquito bite
Isn’t that the truth. These people have such a double standard. Especially when it comes to their Dear Leader that almost no one else respects at all, but they think everyone should be forced to worship.
I swear that if donnie published on his stupid troof sohshul that Dear Leader does not actually poop and that he gets at least one hole in one per game of golf, that his supporters would all defend this new “truth”.
Yup. I saw a magabrain shortly after the shooting, and he was deathly serious like he just heard about the death of a relative: “did you hear about the shooting?”
Meanwhile, this same guy thought the hammering of Pelosi’s husband was HILARIOUS.
Man I should get a booster
At this point you’re probably better off waiting for the newly approved ones to be rolled out in August or September. Your doctor or pharmacist could tell you for sure.
Just read a local article on getting it now and then again in the fall. Coworker had covid last week and said it was the worst she’s felt in years. I’m signed up to get my 2023/24 vaccine tonight. https://captimes.com/news/health/covid-on-the-rise-in-dane-county-what-you-should-know/article_7f20f8e0-3fa6-11ef-bc9d-db5cc29b1bcd.html
I keep forgetting to get one. I work with a bunch of idiots so it really is vital.
New variant came on quick for me. One day I wasn’t even sure if I was sick, next day couldn’t record a temperature lower than 102 so I tested.
I’m in the midst of the ramp up. Hoping today is the worst of it but prepared for the worst. Def hitting way faster than OG and way harder than omicron
Can’t even get them around me every hospital is completely out. They’re telling me you can’t even get an appointment until October November
Just got one two weeks ago.
Pharmacy wouldn’t let me because it hadn’t been a full year. Go to a different chain.
Man fuck the vaccines. I got the full recommended dose and still got COVID like 5-6 times already. At this point it’s just like a harsh flu.
Covid mutates really fast, just like the flu. We will never get rid of it, but adapt to its existence like the flu.
Be glad you’re not dead, then.
I wish Him well, but man he need to be home with his family resting, like for the rest of his life.
I think the fact that he’s the incumbent is a bigger advantage than anyone aside from him can muster, but if he steps down as soon as the election is over that’d be good.
A bait and switch like that would clobber any trust the Democratic party has built up and cost them for at least a decade
I think that’s a fair expectation, but I don’t think they had much trust to begin with.
I agree. They had enough to get elected though. They pull this, I dunno, I think we’re handing the federal government to the Republicans for a decade at least
At this point if we hand it to them for a single election it’s going to be 25 years before we resemble a democracy again.
That’s a pretty compelling reason for Biden to not intentionally ruin their chances in 2028
Biden 2032
A lot less of an advantage when polling this badly in approval.
There’s never been a president with this approval that won reelection.
I haven’t been paying attention to the approval rating because I don’t think it’s relevant. People didn’t like Biden last time either, and I’ve spoken to registered Republicans who said they’d vote for Biden even if he was a corpse. Lots of people really don’t like Trump. Iirc, a president has only been re-elected after losing a single time in history as well, but I don’t recall the circumstances.
Yeah, but last time Biden didn’t have as many verbal gaffs and was generally viewed in a positive manner due to his connection with Obama. His presidency has been relatively stable (given how much interference from the Republicans during it), but in the last year his popularity has gone down due to his actions over Gaza (he could have loudly and publicly stated he did not agree with the Republicans in congress and boosted his approval ratings easily) and his increasingly worrying speech patterns. I don’t actually think he has dementia (more that he’s in his 80s), but calling one of our allies the name of their enemy could definitely cause a political issue. I do suspect that a lot of the previous voters will probably still vote Biden, but they would probably vote for any halfway decent politician that opposed Trump. The problem is that some less convinced voters have been berated when asking questions about his fitness for the next 4 years, which does raise the bs alarm. And yes, I know Republicans have definitely been stoking that fire, but if the default response is to deflect then you are going to make those potential voters anxious.
didn’t have as many verbal gaffs
🤨
Do you mean over the course of his life or per unit time? Because the first isn’t an issue, and the second probably isn’t true.
Per unit time. He’s been having some mistakes and they have become more frequent. For example, when he basically planned a press conference to dispute/explain the verbal mistakes he made at the debate with Trump, and proceeded to have the massive one of calling Zylinski “Mr. Putin” about an hour before, causing them to cancel it. Again, he’s in his 80s, but it is still pretty depressing to those that aren’t supporting him completely due to his opposition to Trump.
causing them to cancel it.
They didn’t cancel his NATO press conference. This is the press conference where Biden referred to his Vice President as “Vice President Trump”.
Grover Cleveland. Only non consecutive presidency, so far. That happened in the late 1800s, so neither radio nor TV had been invented yet, and TV definitely changes the campaign.
Wow. Is it possible he may really be giving us an out?
Fingers crossed.
That or the Lord Almighty is expressing his opinion.
Fox news is going to run with this so hard if it happens. God curved a bullet (straight into a retired firefighter) to save trump and killed Biden with a cough (because COVID doesn’t exist for them). I can’t wait for the rhetoric.
Well to be fair, if this were a movie then a character who said
If the Lord Almighty came down and said, “Joe, get out of the race,” I’d get out of the race. The Lord Almighty’s not coming down.
would definitely die. The Lord Almighty doesn’t come down to you, you come up to him.
Get well soon, Mr. President
Biden just said it would take a medical emergency to get him to drop. If this isn’t a sign from <deity of your choice> that he needs to get out of the race, I don’t know what is.
maybe it’s an act of god or maybe they got someone sick to cough on his glass, but the thing from god is also possible
I hope he’s not planning to one-up Trump’s “brush with death” and steal back sympathy by actually dying.
That might work…have him try it.
Oh man me too. Sure hope.
It’s okay, Maga says Covid isn’t really a problem.
I’m watching NBC News live right now and they asked people on the floor of the RNC for their reaction about Biden having COVID. They all said they are praying for him and hope for a speedy recovery. I was waiting for just one “COVID ain’t real! Fauci is a liar!” crazy person but there were none. Damn.
They know the media is on them and they have to behave and say “politically correct” things.
Make no mistake, the RNC and DNC are carefully managed events. RNC tries to show as racially diverse a crowd as possible for the cameras and DNC tries to be a welcoming big tent, both to encourage undecided voters to come join the bandwagon.
and DNC tries to be a welcoming big tent,
As long as you agree 100% with the DNC…
They have a poor record with people protesting how rightwing the DNC has been moving for decades…
They are incorrigible
They had people out here supporting a mask ban and acting COVID doesn’t exist because Corporate America said so.
Mans is getting ready to fuck off into the sunset.
No he’s not…the D’s will run his fucking corpse at this point rather than picking a viable candidate.
At least his corpse can’t fuck up softball questions.
Think of the laughs though! “Weekend at bidens” has already been done right? Someone has to have done that joke already
lolwhat. Joe is the only person who wants Joe to run.
Looks like all the people who said they would gladly vote for a rotting corpse in November are going to get the chance to put their money where their mouth is!
Ok, buddy, I think it’s time
Hopefully he gets a speedy recovery. I really enjoyed his speech in Detroit he had recently. Biggest surprise was the enthusiasm of the crowd, which was more wild than the trump ones I have seen. Also I loved when he showed humility, an extremely rare thing to show as a leader. Republicans probably only saw weakness, not bravery and kindness in his heart.
Dude, just…sigh
