I mean he’s already been saying it in public at his rallies, so why would anyone be surprised?

He also said from day one he intends to be a dictator. So again, anyone who votes for Trump is voting for literal fascism.

Does Biden know this? Because he doesn’t seem too worried about it.

Biden is worried, it’s fairly obvious. However, he is trying to be a leader, which is foremost the job of the President: To lead. I don’t envy him either. We are a very divided country right now. Yeah, some of you will talk about the war. Others about his bipartisanship. Someone will want to throw their hat in about other issues, perceived or otherwise. Let’s be real though: Dude has had his work cut out for him. So while he hasn’t been perfect I honestly and truly feel it could have been much worse.

At the very least he has completed, and is working on, many of the promises he initially made. Gotta give props where they are due. Though he was never my first choice.

If he wasn’t worried, Biden would be much worse than he’s been(aka, the average for POTUS). He’s the best we’ve had since Carter, which is a condemnation of the office rather than praise of Biden.

If we got the President lemmy wants, a civil war would be the best scenario, but a coup would be more likely. The better the president, the harder their job. The more left wing candidate is always held to a higher standard.
