Did he do it for the memes?
Trump is gonna need another accident.
Even if he goes full and permanent vegetable, he’s still not Trump. Top priority is stopping Orange Hitler from taking control again, so please for the love of human rights, vote for whoever has the the best shot at beating him - if that’s Biden, cool. If it’s Harris, cool. If it’s a literal ham sandwich, fucking fine - all three are orders of magnitude more qualified to do the job then Trump.
Yeah, I’ll vote blue… But get this fucker off the ticket. I’d much rather it be Kamala, or like… Nearly anyone really.
Yeah, the question isn’t who Democrats will vote for. It’s who independents will vote for. And there are a lot of independents.
Relying on the “Never Trump” vote to win this election feels like a terrible risk.
We don’t have democracy anymore.
First, the SCOTUS ruling did away with that last week, but let’s ignore that for now…
We have a fascist authoritarian in charge who refuses to even consider stepping down until he dies - certainly he is not going to let the people decide who gets to be the Democratic nominee - vs. someone who will become a dictator for life and do the same, but somehow much, MUCH worse.
I hope that many people vote Blue No Matter Who… yet I fear that many independents won’t.
I don’t think you realise what a fascist authoritarian is my lad.
He did pick up on the Putin gaffe and immediately corrected himself and explained that his enemies have been on his mind lately.
He didn’t correct calling Kamala Harris Trump.
He’s been known for making gaffes since he was Obama’s vice president. From his Wikipedia page:
The remark revived Biden’s reputation for gaffes.[227][221][228]
Those sources are from 2009.
Journalist and TV anchor Wolf Blitzer has called Biden loquacious;[692] journalist Mark Bowden has said that he is famous for “talking too much”, leaning in close “like an old pal with something urgent to tell you”.[298] He often deviates from prepared remarks[693] and sometimes “puts his foot in his mouth”.[169][694][695] Biden has a reputation for being prone to gaffes[696] and in 2018 called himself “a gaffe machine”.[697][698] The New York Times wrote that Biden’s “weak filters make him capable of blurting out pretty much anything.”[169]
He has struggled with a stutter most of his life, which he learned to cover up.
I remember when Biden was picked as Obama’s VP, and everyone laughed because he’s known to make gaffes like this.
Obviously, there’s a lot of scrutiny on him, but let’s not pretend it’s all because he’s too old. It’s just Biden being Biden, and while he’s probably too old for the job, that’s what happens when you don’t impose upper age limits…
As John Stewart pointed out. Biden’s "huh?’ scale is spiking.
And its a million times better than the alternative we are risking.
True, but I feel like people have been talking past each other about this.
On the one hand, you have people saying Biden’s cabinet would do a better job than Trump, which is true. On the other hand, you have people saying Biden is going to lose to trump unless he somehow makes a dramatic turnaround in the next couple months, which is also true according to all available data.
The real question isn’t whether Biden is better than trump, it’s whether Biden would serve the country better by stepping down.
Exactly. Biden is a lost cause electorally, regardless of how good or bad he is, because he has tanked his approval with his own voterbase. Nobody is going to see Biden and then vote for Trump, they would just sit out or vote third party. Biden is just handing the win to Trump.
Every vote not for Biden is effectively half a vote for Trump.
Every vote not for Trump is effectively half a vote for Biden.
If you have voted republican your whole life, yes.
The funny thing is that Biden’s had gaffes like this his whole career and could have laughed it off under other circumstances, but with the eyes of the entire world on him watching for him to have another senior moment this is another nail in the coffin.
Trump at a rally this week: “Mothers will never again be forced to watch their children overdosing & hosp–lee. We will never allow mothers to watch their child hopelessly dying in their arms, screaming, ‘What can I do? Help me God, what can I do?’ We are a nation whose once revered airports are a dirty, crowded mess.”
Has any media covered that word vomit?
Trump’s brain is also absolutely cooked. He just doesn’t look as confused as Biden I think that helps him. Plus that his voters don’t care about facts, I’m guessing they might have actually had some bleach.
