President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

I guess Joe likes the military. He’s showing that he doesn’t think they’re losers and suckers. If Biden wants to muse props to drive the fascist scum into hiding, I’m good with that. If he wants to slow roll help to Kentucky and Tennessee, go for it. If want to relocate some defense contracts from Missouri to Wisconsin, I’m good with that. Democrats have been letting themselves getting punched in the face for 7 years, time to fight back. And someone needs to lock bill and Hillary in their rooms until November 2024.

 

Oh, I agree on your points. The Dems have been forced to be the "responsible one" since the GOP went haywire. Supporting the military, ending a 20-year war, not playing politics with emergency relief, passing funding bills to ensure our country doesn't default etc. Even now, when you hear Republicans criticize Biden because he's not "uniting" the country and calling out fascist behavior when it happens - it's crazy. And most of the lunacy is almost "baked in" to the Republican brand - its become their SOP.
I've mentioned this before, but I do think the general press holds Democrats to a higher standard.

 

Why would you insult Tucker Carlson like that? Sure, he deserves it, but you just gave YF way too much credit.

 

Fair enough. But all those bigoted white nationalists sound the same after a while.

 

Unpredictable fascist actually very predictable

 

Truss, but verify.

Maybe it isn't Trump so much as what he says. In the past, people like him - think Pat Buchanan, were seen as having no shot by the general media, and spoke about these things in language that really didn't connect with the voters most receptive to them. Trump's celebrity and his "outsider" status were two key ingredients to his rise.

 

And he ran against a woman. Obama (and probably Biden) would have beaten him in '16 if he'd been eligible. Though, Trump likely wouldn't have gotten the nom against an incumbent.

 

I bang to the beat of my own band, dog. Always have.

The brownshirts already tried to burn the Reichstag.

 

Of course the Trump-appointed judge did.
