Joe Biden has an opportunity to do something very very funny with a shotgun called Official Acts.
A nice kek at the end of the tunnel.
They shoulda run Walz for prez
Of you ask me, this man is the reason for all of this. Bernie would have won reelection yesterday. Nearly anyone would have.
Just imagine if he had stuck to his promise of being a one term president and didn’t try to run for reelection.
It wasn’t just this man, it was the entire Democratic Party. Remember well that in the four years leaning up to the election, while the Republican party was playing 6-D chess trying to figure out every possible avenue they could use to sieze power, the Dems decided their best chance at defeating Trump was running Sleepy Joe Biden.
They did Bernie fucking dirty in 2016.
Then Biden knew he could run on name recognition alone and trounce Bernie in 2020. He knew people were pining for the Obama days and played off that nostalgia.
Fuck Hillary Clinton, fuck Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, Kamala Harris is okay, fuck Joe Biden, and fuck the DNC. There’s no reason they shouldn’t run a progressive candidate, but it’s clear they’re allergic to winning elections.
Also, did anyone seem to notice that “weird” dropped out of campaign messaging in the last couple months following the nom? Can’t help but think the DNC was behind that. Calling them weird was their kryptonite, even if Kamala Harris essentially said, “I’d do nothing different from Joe.”
Joe Biden was a perfectly okay president. He was pretty invisible for the most part. He was a boring president. But he didn’t bring the FIRE Bernie had in 2016 and 2020. He ran at a time when he KNEW he would win because Bernie was too far to the left for the DNC to be comfortable, and for that, I consider him a coward.
We didn’t deserve a President Sanders, but holy shit did we ever NEED him. And yes, I am coping pretty hard right now.
Everyone says they did Bernie dirty in 2016, but no one ever brings up how in 2020, the establishment dems all dropped out of the race in exchange for cabinet positions to rally around the elder statesman Biden—when Bernie was winning the primaries.
That, in my opinion, is far dirtier and a much bigger “fuck you” to leftists/progressives/humanists than 2016.
people gonna start switching sides permanently if DNC can’t fix themselves
As if that hasn’t been happening already. Dems need to get their shit together.
Well, ideally Bernie would have won reelection in 2020 so he wouldn’t have been able to run this time.
They say, ATL Bernie could win in 2016, so he could be in office 2016-2024
Anyone under the age of 60 … and as a person of colour, I hate to say it but … a white male
Elect a bunch of socially minded white male leaders for a few terms and then you can move on to a progressive modern leader like a woman of colour
We haven’t jumped into the future yet … everyone still acts like deranged cavemen so don’t hope for dramatic changes to happen like eliminating racism to take place in the space of a hundred years.
Is that why Biden had 14 million more votes?
You lot (Americans) are fucking racist and hate women. Numbers back it up.
Now we in the civilised world will have shitshow on news for years to come.
There is overwhelming evidence that black and Latino voters helped carry this election for Trump, and that there largest concerns were economic ones that Harris was ignoring.
You can scream about racism or sexism all you want, it’s not going to change facts.
That just means they’re racist too. All he needed to do was paint immigrants and refugees as boogeyman so even minorities look down on them. Anything goes, as long as leopards don’t eat my face!
Actually no there isn’t. Black voters voted in majority for kamala. Even Latinos voted majority for kamala. She lost some percentage points with those groups, but by far and away white men and women voted for Trump, not for kamalcanif your only recourse in each election year is to hope you get enough black and brown voters to win you the eldtion, then maybe don’t alienate all those voters and tell them their concerns don’t matter for a year before the election.
Ah yes, hilarious
