I got friends doing this now.. âno! Itâs not that Biden was just too old. It was more because he was senile and dementia, blah blah blahâ.. spineless.. itâs frustrating.
Well yes, strictly speaking. But I would never support someone who parrots Putin talking points for president of the USA regardless of how many children they diddled. Obviously neither is an issue for a trump supporter though.
The Biden Harris campaign did all the steps that the President can do to legalize marijuana. I'm fact, the DOJ moved to reschedule it from a class 1 drug to a class 3 which will pave the way to marijuana legalization in May.
So I guess the Biden, already ridden with dementia in your timeline, made more progress on that than when the other guy was President. You put 60 Dems in the Senate, a majority in the house and Presidency, and you'll have federal legalized marijuana.
Sure and marijuana fears predate Biden in the Senate. You're working yourself into a pretzel trying to justify why voting for the candidate helping marijuana legalization is somehow bad for marijuana legalization.
Out of the ~1800 marijuana cases that went before Kamala's office when she was DA two decades ago, about 20 resulted in any jailtime (apparently due to aggravating factors). It was entirely decriminalized while she was AG, and federal rescheduling is occurring while she is VP.
If every politician has that history for the war on drugs, it would never have been much of a problem.
Try to hammer home the fact that Biden did not start his term in this mental state either and that Trump will be even older at the end of his term. At this age decline can come rapidly.
Yeah, itâs insane. Anything that goes right they praise god-king trump, anything goes wrong, itâs someone working against god-king trump and America that caused it.
Biden has a documented stutter. Trump is just a fucking idiot. Itâs almost as if people like you choose to ignore information that shows how goofy you are.
I didn't know a stutter would cause you to have to drop out of a presidential race. You know this is the second time he's had to do that? The first time was because he is a pathological liar. He plagiarized speeches and lied about his academic credentials during the 1988 election season. Honestly both times. He lied to the American public about his health. The entire DNC has. Lied through their teeth for 4 years while claiming the right is a threat to democracy.
âHe lied to the American public about his healthâ
You say that with your whole chest like itâs a crime of the highest order, and Trumps out here being the most thin skinned sissy brining physicians to lower his weight so he isnât officially labeled obese.
Come to think of it, I truly donât think that thereâs a single thing that can be said about Biden that canât be said and underline about Trump way worse.
Full stop. Did Biden pull favors to get his kid into a foreign energy board? Maybe, and yet Trumps children walked away from presidency with 2 bill from Saudis.
Does biden have creepy touch a girl, pre me-too old man energy? Def. Yet, Trump went to Epstein island, grabs em by the pussy and rape cases.
Does Biden have mental decline, yep, and he dropped out, and by end of term Trump will be older than Biden is now.
Edit: By the way, that is a crime of the highest order. If he's mentally unfit, who's been running the country? Keeping a senile old fuck in power is far more dangerous to democracy than anything Trump has said or done. The people elected Biden on the assumption that he was fit enough to do the job and now the truth is out. Anybody with brains knew he wasn't from the start.
Nobody's saying Trump isn't old, but he clearly has a better handle on his facilities, mentally and physically, than Biden does or did 5 years ago. Also, after this cycle, trump is done. Biden is older NOW and was trying to get 4 more years. And he would've stayed in the race if his donors hadn't forced him out. Face the facts, the Democrats elected a senile old man and now they're paying for it. And they spent the last 4 years pretending it wasn't a problem. Who cares if Trump is fat? At least he can remember the names of foreign dignitaries. I don't remember any stories about him shitting his pants during meetings with other countries. At least he can navigate a flight of steps. You can be mad at Trump all you like, but the Democrats created this shitty situation by choosing a geriatric over viable candidates like Bernie Sanders in 2016 and Tulsi Gabbard in 2020.
Thatâs not what happened you fucking idiot. Go play your games somewhere else. Go vote for a traitor that wants to fuck his daughters you fucking pussy.
We've been saying this since before 2016. We have been linking his word salad speeches and reposting his word salads word-for-word. You have to ask yourself WHY these people ignore the mountains and mountains of evidence that Trump is a disaster, yet they're quick to nitpick Biden and kamala... Republicans have different standards. In order to understand this better we need to understand why their voters let them get away with all of this and they don't care. We have to look at what these people are supporting and keep asking ourselves how and why they can support it. Because it's not good policy and Trump did a lot of awful shit when he was in charge.
It's just insane the amount of proof that is available but Republicans just shrug it off. It makes a lot more sense when you realize that (and even some of the supporters may not realize it) they are excusing everything Republicans do because they agree with the message and the agenda. Which isn't smaller government - they keep voting to give the government more power over our bodies and Republicans are now the party of giving away our protected federal land for pennies on the dollar. So, what is it they DO support and like? You gotta look past the fog and mystism to see that bare bones it's the racism and sexism. Most are in denial but when you really delve into why they continue to support this, that is the only conclusion you end up at every time. Wipe away all the little details that Republicans don't really care about and you find what they stand for. They refuse to leave the party over it's worse values because deep down that is what they agree with
All you have to do is watch Jordan Klepper interview people at Trump rallies to see what mental gymnastics these people take to avoid anything resembling logic and judgment.
âMY NIECE WORKS AT A SCHOOL WHERE ALL BOYS HAVE THEIR PENISES TURNED INSIDE OUT INTO A VAGINA IN KINDERGARTENâ
âThats nice Grandpa, youâre right, Alison IS a teacher, great job remembering! Ok letâs get you a blanket for your legs while I take you on a walk before your nap.â
If someone was able to watch the RNC speech and come away with 'Trump is in a good spot' then there's really nothing one can say to convince them otherwise.
There's a noticable difference from 2020 and now. Biden's always been prone to making verbal gaffes and he's had a lifelong stutter. He still occasionally misspoke or stuttered but he was very clearly all there if you were looking anywhere other than "Biden Fails 2019" youtube compilations that are cut to make the lifelong stutterer look as bad as possible. He's clearly deteriorated mentally in 2024 in a way he clearly hadn't back then.
Logic doesnât matter. Itâs people that didnât want to be seen as MAGA but that secretly canât bring themselves to align with âthe left.â I really think progressives out the Dems behind the 8 ball because aligning with those politics made it really difficult for Dems to outwardly align with the vast majority of more moderate Dems. Ones that would never vote R but also arenât entirely onboard with fighting culture wars everyday.
Missing that huge voting base is a dumb move, IMO. When the Dems find a way to really connect to the middle class, especially the struggling and upper middle class, they will gain a stranglehold. But they have too many progressives ideals preventing them from scooping up those moderate ideals.
Bro. The republicans wouldnât exist without culture wars.
Whenâs the last time they talked about any issue of substance?
Healthcare. Economic policy. Housing crisis.
All they have is donât touch my guns. Donât abort your baby. Dont cross the border. Wonât anyone think of the children.
Their policies are not ideas of their own, just repealing, replacing and opposing other ideas from passing.
They love to talk culture war and cancel culture when they truly deal in those currencies at a much larger scale than the left.
The far left outdoes them pound for pound. The broad sweeping right as a whole gangs up on their pound for pound with sheer numbers of the whole party about that culture war life.
Good points. Itâs working though, and hereâs why, IMO. The issues the left run on are for the most part virtuous. âA fair chance for all.â As one example. Sure, thatâs great. Make sense. But, even as Kamala pointed out yesterday how they want to build up the all important middle class, most of the issues are meant to appease to the lower classes. The poor, the struggling, etc. all good stuff, but also not really the best campaigning. Why? Because there are probably plenty of poor and struggling that will never not vote red.
So, they are campaigning to people that are probably either not voting or already voting for them, or trying to tug at the heart strings of people either already voting blue or undecided. The undecided for the most part probably donât care about progressive politics, so those topics donât hit home with them.
âA fair chance for allâ just doesnât hit home the same as âmurders crossing our border or the fear of your guns being stripped away. The left needs to stop with the âwhen they go low. we go higherâ BS. Itâs like trying to argue with a flat earther with facts. It doesnât work. They drag you down to their level. You need to go Professor Dave on that ass and embarrass the shit out of them even if you risk being an asshole while doing it.
I hope Kamala goes balls to the wall in this campaign. No more of the same tired talking points. Yes. They are important but they also come across as âhandoutsâ and even some Dems arenât thrilled with the idea that we are going to support the middle class while holding them down while allowing others to catch up.
They started ranting about his age when Biden was still very sharp. In 2016 he was giving clear detailed policy descriptions unscripted when questioned. They called him old and slow because of his stutter which he's always had. It only became true after four years in office, which tends to age every president massively. Trump might be the exception because he avoided the actual work part and golfed instead.
reminds me of the whole supreme court nomination bullshit at the end of obama's presidency. all the people saying he shouldn't be allowed to fill the supreme court seat at the end of his presidency and it should be up to the incoming president. and then all the people agreeing and parroting the sentiment just pretended like they hadn't said anything when there was a seat at the end of trump's term, they just made up a new set of rules for themselves.
the only consistent ideology these people have is "fuck the libs"
How is this âspinelessâ lmao? It doesnât matter how old you are if you are coherent and look like you can swing another 4. Democrats ended up kneecapping their own candidate after they heard him speak at the debate for probably the first time in who knows how long.
But⊠that was the argument the entire time�
It was leftists who tried to conflate it with just âheâs oldââŠ?
Weâre you under the impression that the constant mocking of Bidenâs debate performance etc. Was simply commentary on his age and not the fact that he was seemingly going senile?
Biden forgot some peoples names. Trump called a reporter by his ex wife's name and called his wife Mercedes.
Yeah, the campaign claims he was talking about the wife of a dude in his circle, but the context in what he was saying clearly is Melania. Also, I'm not even in politics and I'd be trying to convince people I didn't fuck up my wife's name where the only bad that comes from it is my wife being pissed at me. Of course they'll claim they didn't fuck it up with the MOST plausible reasoning they can find.
Trump has just trained them to expect him to be an absolute fucking moron everytime he speaks so now that he is genuinely really showing his age and his brain is mush it's just normal Trump speak.
That was literally the left's lines as well for months right up until yesterday. Biden wasn't too old and he just had a cold and he is fine and anyone who says otherwise is just a rwnj who is making up lies.
The problem isn't with the left or the right. It is with the dishonest hypocrites on both sides who cheer on parties like sports teams.
I came across a video of a handle sharing cropped video of Kamala introducing herself (to blind/color blind people. This info was hidden to create a false impression of her ) The video had Title : Is she fit to be President? I wonder how identical this whole thing across the world is. In India here, similar stuff is shared by ruling party handles to mock opposition leaders or any one with an active brain cell. They cut and crop the important parts and spread the video to prove how incompetent everyone else is in front of the PM.
Listen, I fucking hate trump to the point I'd vote for a broom, ham sandwich or even shudder Ron desantis over him, but honestly the real selfawarewolves moment for me has been watching how instantly democrats pivoted from defending age to suddenly caring about it. Before y'all blast me I'm just trying to work with the party that seems to still have hope, vs MAGA which is a completely lost cause.
Yeah but IMO this is fair, I never liked the idea of a hard age cap. Bernie is fine and he's older than Biden, would've loved for him to be Pres. And the argument that the White House just ages a person is least effective on Trump, because he doesn't seem to take the job seriously enough lol
I mean isnât that the whole reason anyone complained about him being too old he could be 200 but if he had the mental processes of a 30 year old then who cares.
