Are you referring to his handling of Afghanistan or something else?
Joe Biden announced he was “going to bed” before being cut off mid-sentence by an aide in a press conference delivered at the end of his trip to Asia.
Yup. He’s like 80 and putting him through jetlag isn’t ideal. I’d go back to bed too. Clearly to me though he was having difficulty thinking. Again he’s 80 and being put through jetlag. It’s insane to do this to any 80-year-old. He’s not the best president but it beats the shit out of any Republican Trumpers we would have got instead. At least he’s not actively trying to harm the nation.
It’s not defeatist at all. It’s how it is. Voting for a third party in the US is throwing your vote away. The only hope is that people campaign hard for a third party and everyone abandons one party for another. That’s the only hope and that’s still a 2 party system. It’s just a new party taking the place of the old one. Even then it’s an impossible task that won’t happen in the next 10 years.
Oh no I meant it more in the Rick and Morty shooting the insect soldiers in the first episode, “Rick you said they weren’t alive” “They’re bureaucrats Morty, I don’t respect them.” You’re just repeating lame talking points. But it’s OK you deserve the brain dead candidate you support.
I mean we’ve all seen it considering the leaked video of him smoking crack. Also apart of that leak were the emails to Joe asking for political favours for economic benefits which amount to corruption by Biden. That must be alien to you.
Well, despite the fact that I hate Trump, I think the Democrats are fucked by picking Joe Biden as the candidate for 2024.
Biden is terrible for the working class. He started his Presidency by going back on the campaign promise of $2k stimulus checks, couldn’t forgive student loans as promised, broke a strike which then led to multiple train disasters, billions in aid to Ukraine but lets the US crumble under cost-of-living crises, and generally ignoring the fact that he should be retired at his age instead of running this country is not helping anyone except the Right.
Biden will be the last Democrat President the way this is going. Pathetic way to go out.
I’m no Biden fan but the real problem is that many liberals especially younger ones read nothing besides sensational headlines and live on social media rage bait.
To say “breaking the strike led to train disasters” is so far beyond gross oversimplification it boggles the mind.
I’m willing to admit the causality is overstated, but he still should not have broken that strike. And, yes, I read the article and it is commendable that they continued to pressure the companies for sick days which they eventually approved. But an important question is: When did they grant it?
From what I can see, they granted workers paid time in May/June 2023. Better late than never.
But the Palestine railroad disaster happened in Februrary 2023. I’m willing to say that this event, in light of the lack of the strike, was what allowed for there to be enough pressure to make the train companies grant the sick days concession. I bet if it didn’t happen, there wouldn’t be sick days now. It would have just been better if the strike happened which could have led to sick days potentially without the Palestine incident (especially if they were on strike).
I’m no Biden fan but the real problem is that many liberals especially younger ones read nothing besides sensational headlines and live on social media rage bait.
Really? That’s the real problem, huh? Interesting analysis.

Personal take: it kind of shows how far right Elon Musk exactly is. Giving the likes of him exposure is not healthy for Lemmy.
The only virus out here is the worms squirming around Elmo’s fat head. Treat your daughter like shiat, she’ll hate you for it. Don’t blame the world. Blame the image in the mirror
The guy gets his life force from being talked about. If we ignore him completely and show his daughter the support he never gave her, it will ruin him.
I could be generous and say they are not evil, but the system that allows them to become billionaires in the first place is evil.
But as soon as you say “Twitter made my daughter hate rich people, so to prove her wrong I bought it and ran it into the ground so people can’t exchange ideas there anymore”…yeah, you’re not making the case you think you are.
Being rich implies you are evil. If you were good, you would give back to the people who create your wealth.
A good person understands they are not entitled to that much money with so much bad things in the world nor need it in the first place to live a decent live.
