I care, because I want to know if my President is losing his grip on reality. To be honest, I might have gotten Macron and Mitterand confused, being that I don’t know anything about either of them except that they are both French politicians. But I don’t have to meet with Macron and negotiate international cooperation with a guy I confused with a long dead predecessor.
But you DONT have a choice. So why do you care? Does that have any bearing on your life, or who you’ll vote for? It’s clearly going to be Dementia Donnie vs. Bumbling Brandon.
I will vote for Biden regardless, but I like to know if he’s fucking up, or if he’s deteriorating. What if he doesn’t make it to November? Is it Harris? One of the weirdos still in the primary? Can any of them beat Trump this late in the game? Should we be making plans, or hoping he stays lucid through the debates?
I don’t think he has any reason to debate anyone right now. He’s the President, and the Republicans haven’t even nominated anyone yet. Trump is the front-runner, but several things could prevent him from accepting the nomination.
He could be disqualified under the amendment, he could be incarcerated for one of his many crimes, he could be forced to declare bankruptcy as a result of judgements against him, or he could have a health problem that prevents him from continuing his campaign.
Biden won’t win anything in a debate with Trump now, and he can lose a lot. Trump won’t have any shame about levelling accusations, and could easily just make up some bullshit on the spot. Trump supporters will take it as gospel, and now Biden has to spend political and financial capital disproving some absurd allegations.
Biden is better off waiting for the actual debates, and letting Haley take the pot shots at Trump.
Indeed, I try to not even concern myself with things I have no control over. Don’t you? Do you just constantly live in a ball of depression because at any moment hundreds of children will die from preventable diseases? You consciously or unconsciously draw a line somewhere. I’m asking why anyone should care about this, at all. I’ve yet to see a good reason.
Because when it rains, it affects you. Does Biden’s gaffs cause you physical discomfort? Change the properties of your environment? What a stupid analogy.
If the President is losing his grip on reality, if he’s unable to campaign, if we have to find a new candidate, yes it does affect me. You might not care, and that’s fine. Nobody is telling you that you have to care, but the news isn’t just what affects your personal sphere of influence.
My guy, that’s the information people use when they decide who to vote for. What exactly are you trying to make a point about? That no one should even listen to anything about politics or something?
He’s/his staff are actually doing a fairly good job. It’s hard to live up to Obama, and he’s not as loud as Trump. He hasn’t made huge progress, but he’s made some - and most of it’s “boring.” So yeah - I like Biden.
Who the fuck cares? Does anyone “like” Biden?

I always confuse Macron with Macaroons.
And I assume I’m not alone.
Understandable
ROFL!
Wait, which one of these do you mean?

His handlers won’t allow him to debate. I don’t like Biden, but propping him up like this reeks uncomfortably of elder abuse.

But you don’t decide ANY of those things.
so… don’t worry about it? just do what we’re told, vote how we’re told, shut up and don’t ask questions?
you don’t control anything anyway.
(sounds like fascism to me.)

I don’t decide the weather, either, but I check if it’s going to rain.

YOU aren’t picking shit. The Dems are not running a primary. Downvotes make me horny.

So you’re honestly undecided on Trump or Biden?
Fuck Putin.

I “like” him a lot more than trump. That’s for sure.
