President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Especially if that hottie Candy O shows it!

 

Biden removed the Trump tariff on single-malt Scotch. That's making America great again.

 

So true!

 

Coincidence?

 

What’s the point of being smart, rich and successful if you can’t pay to survive?

 

I don't blame the rich folks for line jumping. But if there was quid pro quo, the Governor should be in serious trouble for accepting a bribe.

 

And does anyone really think it’s limited to this community? Tell me Beyoncé and the Kardashians and LeBron and family and Tom Brady and family and a thousand other rich celebrities and athletes didn’t get it done quietly.

 

Did they write checks to politicians to get the vaccine? If so, the politician should be investigated.

 

Absolutely. But these days a scandal with a politician doesn’t move the needle very much. If there’s video of DeSantis taking a briefcase full of money and saying the shots are on the way, he wouldn’t lose more than 5% in a favorable rating and that would be temporary. Cruz Hawley and their kind actively encouraged a coup and there’s no chance they won’t be re-elected.

 

As a legal matter, the Supreme Court, in a decision with no ideological split, pretty much made bribery an unprovable crime when they reversed the conviction of the former Governor of Virginia whose name I forget. As a political matter, it's quite unclear how this could effect DeSantis. He wasn't exactly elected in a landslide. Same with Cruz. They don't have that much margin for error.

 

That used to be the case. IMO if you voted for Cruz or DeSantis there’s almost no chance you’d vote for a Democrat in a general election. You would probably vote for a primary opponent or not vote at all in a general election
