The path forward Biden is offering:
Get a orange spray tan.
Start talking about how unfair the media is to him.
Attack members of his own party who dare to question him.
It’s pretty clear that Biden should’ve stepped down as soon as COVID ‘ended’ and he passed his big infrastructure/climate bill.
He’d have been a modern Cincinnatus, and would have given Harris the best opportunity to make her case to the voters.
All of this because the Whitehouse didn’t juice Biden up with the Doctor Feelgood syringe left over from the Kennedy years.
I think a shotgun primary could really fire up the base. Let the new faces promise things that get people excited to vote instead of this grim responsibility we’re feeling now
Saying Biden started wars is like saying Bernie Sanders got Hilary nominated in '16
Yeah I don’t care for them. Had fun when I was a kid but that was before we all had computers in our pocket.
The American empire is much larger than the territories Germany controlled.
If the US were to become fascist, it would likely influence South America, Western Europe, the Caribbean, Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, and other regions to follow suit.
If a democrat fucks up, that’s big news because they’re supposed to have their shit together and act in the best interest of all of us.
If a republican fucks up, that’s expected. Any articles about that are like ‘water is wet’. It’s not informative because we all know, even the conservatives who vote for them, that they’re in it for themselves and are out to get everyone else.
It seems like there is a maximum level of failsons an empire can accumulate before it collapses.
RFK Jr is a third wave failson. Trump is a second wave failson.
Polls show her doing as well as Biden.
The thing that’s going to win this election for the democrats is abortion. Harris might be good on that aspect of the race.
It’s pretty disheartening. People had a better opinion of the economy when me and my friends could only get jobs that paid in experience for 5 years.
But in that case, even during the highest unemployment, most people still had their jobs so to them the only difference was things were cheaper, people were willing to do things for you for less money (or free of you’d tell your friends how helpful I was).
Lol, in that scenario picking a new VP requires confirmation from both house and Senate.
Do you think the house GOP would confirm anyone? Or keep the spot open and just have Speaker Johnson next in line?
How do we feel about a woman of color as president with the next in line being a christo-facist? What’s the presidential odds of assassination, 14%?
Many, many shitty scenarios. No clear answer as to what the right choice is and if we lose well always be second guessing what could’ve been.
Anyone telling you this is an easy choice, or is speaking with absolute confidence is full of shit.
Because what they really did was set themselves up as the ones who decide what is and isn’t an official act.
As long as there is a right-wing supreme court, any action by a republican president will be official and immune, but if a democratic president tried to throw their weight around in the same… They’ll get shut down.
If they were as freaked out by the democratic agenda as they say they are, they would never have made this ruling. It really shows that there is nothing to fear from the democrats.
If only he had been president for 4 years already or something, then we’d know
Yeah and I liked Justin Amash but 1 or 2 local Congress people do not define the party, definitely not enough that anyone should vote Trump because of them.
Why is the former president and leader of the one of two political parties not the status quo?
Gore was status quo, but if he’d won we wouldn’t have had the war in Iraq.
Hilary was the status quo, but if she won we’d still have Roe v Wade.
If you vote republican, you will get the status quo with an added disaster or two mixed in.
I live in a rent controlled building and from 2017 - 2021 my rent stayed the same, no increases.
