President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

I should be used to it by now, but the GOP’s utter hatred of education or even job training stipends continues to amaze me.

My former state of Idaho is a prime example. They have a large state budget surplus, and their Republican governor proposed using some of it to provide funding for kids who need help paying for college or vocational programs.

You’d have thought he proposed mandatory teaching of CRT the way the true believers in the state Legislature reacted. “Welfare for the liberal education industry” and “our kids never got any help” all but destroyed a strong proposal in a state desperate for qualified workers.

Once upon a time, Republicans regularly championed pro-business measures that helped employers. Now those same proposals make you an evil RINO.

 

I kind of think Joe Scarborough hit the nail on the head today when he said - "There has to be someone the Democrats have planted within the Republican party to make them so stupid."

I'm sure Shapiro already has a replacement on speed dial, ready to go at a moment's notice.

 

GOP in 2022: Inflation! Crime! The Border!
GOP in 2023: Why did Twitter ban Lauren Boebert?

 

If that was the case, Hillary Clinton never would’ve happened.

 

OR the Clintons knew she had likeability problems - and figured the only way she could get elected in '16 is to get someone who was as divisive (if not more) than she was and unable to change the image because they had been in the public eye for so long it was entrenched.


I'm almost starting to convince myself.

 

Anyone shown Hillary where Wisconsin is on a map yet?

 

And from what we've seen so far this year, they've taken a deeper dive on probing Twitter (and as we saw yesterday, in craptacular fashion) then the other issues, which they seem content to keep saying "Biden bad!" without offering an alternative plan.

 

"You come at the King, you'd best not miss."

 

LOL. Doubling down on debunked claims is the whole GOP playbook. Right, Mr. Litterbox?
