“The guy is not a democrat with a small d,” the president told CNN’s Erin Burnett.
President Joe Biden said in an interview Wednesday he is all but certain Donald Trump, his predecessor and presumptive 2024 rival, will reject the results of the November election and called Trump “dangerous” for the nation.
“The guy is not a democrat with a small d,” Biden told CNN’s Erin Burnett during a visit to Wisconsin this week.
“How many court cases do they have, Supreme Court cases? They’ve all said this is a totally legitimate election. … He may not accept the outcome of the election? I promise you he won’t. Which is dangerous.”
The president went on to say other world leaders had expressed to him their fear of a second Trump presidency and pointed to Trump’s pledge to prosecute his political opponents if he enters the Oval Office once more.
I like your comment. Also isnt it comical how simple truths (e.g. the system doesnt represent us, politicians too old etc) keep getting downvoted so hard, huh? Keep it up, you never know. Someone out there who reads more than writes may learn something and start pulling their head out of the cavern below their belt.
For the room:
Like, get a grip y’all. criticism is an important part of a free democracy, and the press has abdicated its position something must fill this gap. Honestly, you dumbasses actually need folks like us around to point things out that you guys would never ever come up with on your own (i think everyone is a dumbass at something btw, Even geniuses are dumbasses at at least one thing, and politics is a big one. Many otherwise intelligent people become spittin’ simpletons when politics is le topic.)
Yes. Yes i am talking to you. You, the one already preparing to reply. Don’t. You don’t got nothing to say i haven’t already heard. Those of you still reading, i respect you more for it. It’s not like ill read the replies a comment like this generated.
So, listen up:
We’re not russo-chinese spies lol. That is a stupid claim. Only stupid people believe this. We are your peers. This peer in particular is a little tired explaining how the world works, but ill keep going, because this is how i do democracy. This is how democracy is done in a free society.
How convenient (for those still not convinced) that the TV and news did a ad hominem! How great that you already know all your need to! How nice to know that all dissenting opinions are simply spies, bad actors or useful idiots! How very convenient that the easiest path forward, and the right thing to do is nothing.
Learn nothing, consider nothing, suspect nothing, do nothing.
I envy you believers… What a lovely faith to have.
Engagement points are to your left. I appreciate your clicking either one of them
People said trump in 16 was the most dangerous thing because his party would excuse anything he did because Dems are worse…
And I agreed.
But now Dems are saying we have to excuse anything Dem politicians do. Because Republicans are worse.
It’s true republicans are worse, but if our standards for our own party are non-existent, then we have an even worse problem.
Because there’s now no viable option for president that will be held accountable for anything by their own party.
And since we can’t even punish trump for trying to overthrow the government, because that requires super majorities. There’s no way any president will ever be held accountable for anything.
We’re watching the literal downfall of the American experiment and people just want to argue if trump or Biden plays the fiddle best.
Since i get called a spy and bad actor so often, it got me thinking about theories n such.
Now, I don’t believe this, but if there were astroturfing i would think it would be done by both the DNC and RNC. I’m just screwing around, but it would make sense a lil bit.
The green party will get a larger percentage than normal this year, and while I don’t think the DNC or RNC feel threatened by them, it is very important to them that Americans never feel a third party is possible.
Meh. There’s no conspiracy, its just people getting whipped up into a today cuz it’s an election year and truth is on hiatus.
If it was astroturfing I’d be a lot less scared.
The reality is it’s really people that will now excuse any behavior if there’s a D next to the president name. And other people have already been excusing anything from the other side of the aisle.
Too many people are now like that. A president won’t be held accountable for anything, and most of the people voting won’t even like who they’re voting for.
This isn’t democracy. The person who gets the most votes doesn’t even always win.
It’s going to suck, and it’s going to be hard, but we desperately need to fix our political system. The longer we wait the harder it’ll get
