the sad part is that biden will see this moment and say “im gonna act like an extra good boy to show im the responsible choice for president and everyone will think that’s nice!”
Exactly right. Biden is the honor roll student whose head will be shoved into the urinal by bully boy Trump. And the eighth grade will laugh and laugh and laugh...
So. What are some fucking #CoreActs open to #DarkBrandon to nail #Trump & prove that he is not the over-the-hill spineless woos that millions saw at the debate. It is fucking time to get down and DIRTY vs. wannabe #dictator Trump and the coup-continuing #IllegitimateSCOTUS. NICE is NOT going to win.
If Joe Biden is it, that’s good enough for me. Because no way, no how, would I ever vote for Donald Trump. The decision is an easy one. Vote for democracy or end up an autocracy!
You don’t have a choice of democracy vs autocracy. You have a choice of plutocracy with a veneer of performative elections (with a choice of candidates selected and owned by the plutocrats) and plutocracy with open fascism to keep the masses in line. One is a lesser evil, but it’s no democracy.
What does Biden have left to lose? Honestly? He's old as fuck, he may or may not be prosecuted for committing atrocities to save the republic, and he's the most powerful man on the planet
DO SOMETHING
Yeah, among a lot of other things, this is a real blow to all the vbnmw weiners' ability to insist Biden is actually amazing but his hands are tied because Republicans
They just handed him a benevolent dictatorship on a platter. Anything he does will be tied up in courts for EVER.
He has free rein to do virtually anything right now
My immediate first thought was that he could. It's hilarious, bc whether he does or not (he won't), the outcome is the same: Americans will be outed as being totally cool with autocracy, so long as it benefits them, and willing to excuse anything as long as it's leveraged "for good."
... and I will sink into a thought spiral trap of trying to determine if maybe I'm a shit human bc I wouldn't go back in time & kill Hitler, and I will desperately cling to notions like "the purpose of a system is what it does" to justify my rejection of the hierarchical value of intent.
Activate the Wisconsin National Guard, drone strike the Republican National Convention, then send in the troops to round up any surviving terrorists and send them to GITMO for the rest of their lives. You got immunity. Tell me they would never do the same to you, Joe.
