I voted for him. I don't need to apologize.

It's never Joever, Brandon will go down in history as the best president of the United States for being its downfall.

I mean not sure how that's how it works lmao

Does that make Tzar Nicholas II the greatest emperor of Russia? I dunno, maybe. Maybe it does.

But, I'm still ridin' with Biden. On one policy only.

Let's just say

SCOTUS made a pretty crazy decision in the recent past. And Biden could do a hilarious thing before Jan 20, 2025.

Time's ticking old man! In all the ways possible!

Every self professed Marxist Leninist should consider Tsar Nicholas II as the greatest Tsar because he gave Lenin the opportunity.

Greatness is simply assigned significance in a historical narrative, not some objective criterion.

Punk rock levels of irony.

I saw on twitter that the internal polling for Biden that the Dems had, has him losing to Trump by 400 electoral votes and they knew that since before the dem primary.

Their plan from the start was to lose

the timeline where biden refused to pull out of the race and utterly ate shit while his brain leaked out of his ears is a much funnier timeline than our

a few more of these would have clinched it

If he’d just thrown in a “now beat it, buster” there’d be no recovery

AOC tried to warn y'all but you didn't listen

I might be missing something here. While I saw her as a humanitarian (or better than most politically) for a long time, I now view her differently. She continues to vote to send more 'aid' to Israel to further the genocide of Palestine. That makes even the most progressive of the empirical regime an agent of destruction. Maybe she would be cool when we transition away from capitalism but atm I'm not inclined to support her policies. Did she offer an alternative to the DNC that I'm missing?

Edit-these might be shitposts, so I might have not matched the vibe and context.

it was kind of a shitpost but I'm not saying AOC is good, what I mean is that she has done everything in her power to help the democrats and they keep shooting themselves in the foot anyway

unlike the corporate dems she understood that forcing out Biden that late in the game was political suicide. she hates Biden and never wanted him to be president but still stood by him because, unlike the DNC, she actually wanted to beat Trump

He could have won if he changed his name to Dro Biden and legalized weed

[–] TerminalEncounter@hexbear.net 24 points 5 days ago

Has anyone tried changing their legal name to Donald Trump and running as a dem

I will take my consultation fee as a money order, DNC, you're welcome

[–] tripartitegraph@hexbear.net 6 points 4 days ago

Bring out Young Dro at the DNC and they both do the shoulder lean

i would have voted for biden if he said something funny

[–] axont@hexbear.net 17 points 4 days ago

"we settle our differences at the battle box" is pretty funny

Presigol Grump, your time is... your time... your thyme is... look you know the THING.

I really do think he would have had the Mondale treatment if he ran. Former VP, current VP accused of being a diversity hire, historic loss against an extremist, and the media would have blamed it on Biden being too “left” and not centrist enough
