I'm not saying he'd get my vote, but I'm not not saying it.
Question would be who are the Democrats running?
Liz Cheney
They're going to attempt to appeal even more to conservatives by running a previous candidate for the Democratic nomination.
David Duke.
... this doesn't even feel like satire....
I think next time they're just going to go for animatronics attached to some soggy bread.
No, they'll run Nancy Pelosi's mummified cervix.
Joe Biden
The fact that his administration was one of the most progressive/productive in history overall says a lot about this country.
Oh well. T-minus 30ish days until the death cult starts using prison slave labor to put brawndo on all the crops to own da libz!
It does say a lot when this country's most progressive administration also couldn't help itself but shovel money and weapons in full support of the most live-publicized genocide in the world.
Yes, no justification for Biden's position in Israel. He was fucked either way politically, by design, but from a human perspective, his age was showing there especially. It felt very clear that he was/is not paying attention to the evolving reality of today in Israel. He likely couldn't comprehend it and in his mind just defaulted to his comfortable 1994 perception of Israel.
Again though, I'm talking about overall work of the administration. His presidency would get many categorical A+ historically, but his Israel response and blind support would be a D- at best, if one considered some of the rhetoric (though not actually supported by action ultimately).
And of course, always worth mentioning, that the alternative is US pouring gasoline on this conflict and arming Israel with flamethrowers and gas masks to avoid indoctrinated foot soldiers being slowed down by the overwhelming smell of blackened, blistered flesh and incinerated hair. Here it comes.
I mean, people underrate how progressive he is and how he handled the presidency, but that's going a bit far. FDR, Truman, etc
I'd give him "one of" if he's in the top 5.
Jill Biden
J’Biden
Absolutely. They will do anything to not break the chain
DMC just watched one old ass geezer who lost their first reelection go on to win...so Dems are eying Jimmy Carter
