President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Yeah, women's march ONE DAY after Trump inauguration. Don't think the pink hats materialize if Hillary wins.

 

Senate voted to confirm SecDef 93-2. One of the nays was Hawley.

 

No unity without accountability. And the day Faux News is accountable is the same day that Eastern Michigan plays for the national championship in football.

 

The COVID response would have been markedly different and better. The virtue signaling to white supremacists, American Nazis and xenophobes would not have happened. No way does a Republican Senate allow a Democratic President run a 7.3 Billion debt. Trump dug the country a hole we may never recover from. The worst a Hillary presidency would have done is a nasty status quo.

 

Indeed, these are truly the GOP leaders:

 

It's just such a stark contrast to what we've become used to that I don't blame you one bit. I did the same. I kept telling myself on Wednesday, "The adults are in charge again...finally."

 

It's also nice having people who can actually write, craft these speeches for Biden. That alone says a lot about the talent level in the innards of the administration.

Not only was Miller the worst public servant we've ever had, but the worst speechwriter in the history of the American presidency.

 

I'm not sure when it started, maybe with Nixon, but some people will never like the president. The same people who now say they don't like Biden didn't like Trump and didn't like Obama or Bush or Clinton and on and on.

They don't like just because. They can't even tell you why or what they want in a president. It's a never-ending cycle with them.

I wish President Biden the best of luck. He's as Hunter S. Thompson once said: "Like a moth in a blizzard."

Someday perhaps we'll elect robots to satisfy every whim. Even then some people won't like the hardware or software or the software developer. Just because.

 

Duke and Harvard certainly are tainted as brand name diploma mills based on the right wing characters who graduate or attended those institutions. Nixon and Miller —> Duke

 

LBJ.

After the golden moment of Camelot, young postwar America was heartbroken that the president was a rasping old man again.

 

You can't screech demanding COVID relief and then screech about the 7 Billion Trillion debt.

 

I agree there.

I've had to tell my wife that we can't just magically pay everyone to stay at home.
