I wonder what penitent Joe is going to give up for Lent?
I'm surprised Fox didn't do a story on this yet. Be all like, President Biden claims he gave up potato chips for Lent, but in this exclusive footage, we caught him pounding down pringles!!!!
@Thinkerbell The statute of limitations ran out on that. That's why, while Trump was found to have raped a woman in court, he's only civilly liable for defaming her.
Also, were there really that many Democrats going to Pedo Island? Wasn't it just Bill Clinton?
@Thinkerbell RFK Jr is an Independent, plus he's on the Right, anyway.
Really, they should investigate everyone who was on the plane logs, but these people are rich and powerful, so they wouldn't actually go to prison. And in Trump's case, his supporters would only like him more.
@Thinkerbell He has a few progressive takes, but he's obvi a right-wing lunatic. That's why he's so popular among conservatives. Not that Clinton was that liberal either.
@Thinkerbell That's not surprising. First, RFK wasn't always this crazy. He used to have a functioning brain. Secondly, Hillary is pretty conservative when it comes to economics. Even on social issues, she had to be forced to be more progressive. This is one of the reasons she lost to Trump, they're pretty similar on the economic issues.
A functioning brain is by no means required by liberals, as Biden amply proves. Liberals are also very forgiving; they don't hold old Joe's past racism against him, as long as he now signs the laws and executive orders they want.
And the lefties wouldn't mind RFK jr either, if they thought he would take more votes away from Trump than he would from Biden, in a third-party campaign. But they are fearful that that would NOT be the case, hence their fury and outrage at RFK jr.
Hillary lost because she ran incompetent presidential campaigns, first losing the nomination to an unknown freshman Senator Obama in 2008 (Obama was probably surprised that he won), and then blowing the 2016 election to Trump. Another factor was that Hillary had none of the "aw, shucks" charm of old Bill.
@Thinkerbell Can you give any actual examples of Biden having dementia or otherwise being mentally impaired? I know he has a stutter, but he's had that all his life, and that's not a sign of brain damage. Actual dementia would be something like not being able to tell the difference between Nikki Haley and Nancy Pelosi.
Liberals are also very forgiving; they don't hold old Joe's past racism against him, as long as he now signs the laws and executive orders they want.
Yes. Liberals believe that people can change. You brought up Robert Byrd, well he left the KKK, condemned racism, and spent the rest of his life fighting for civil rights. The NAACP even honored Byrd at his funeral for the work he did. The Right keeps bringing up Byrd as a form of projection because you can't really defend your own racist politicians. But if anything, Byrd is a symbol of how anyone is capable of change.
And the lefties wouldn't mind RFK jr either, if they thought he would take more votes away from Trump than he would from Biden, in a third-party campaign.
He would. That's why right-wing media turned on RFK when he became an Independent. His campaign helps Biden.
Hillary lost because she ran incompetent presidential campaigns
Sure, but it was also that her policies were dogshit. The Clintons pretty much ushered in Neo-Liberalism for the Democrats. They were right-wing on economics, and when it came to social issues, they only moved to the Left when the country did. Obviously, Hillary would have been a better president than Trump. But when it comes to economics, she would have only been slightly better.
"Can you give any actual examples of Biden having dementia or otherwise being mentally impaired?"
There are tons of them on the internet; all you have to do is look. And no, Biden mindlessly reading a teleprompter is not a "stutter." 🙄

"You brought up Robert Byrd, well he left the KKK, condemned racism, and spent the rest of his life fighting for civil rights."
Byrd didn't change until about 2000, when he saw which way his party had gone, and, like Biden, wanted to retain influence. When the party was racist, he was racist; when it went 'progressive,' he went along.
Bismarck had something to say about this phenomenon:
"Politik ist, daß man Gottes Schritt durch die Weltgeschichte hört, dann zuspringt und versucht, einen Zipfel seines Mantels zu fassen."
"His [RFK jr's] campaign helps Biden."
If it did, the 'progressives' wouldn't be howling so much with rage. 🤭
"her [Hillary's] policies were dogshit."
No, it was mostly because she was so thoroughly unlikable. If she had had an ounce of old Bill's charm, she would have won easily.
And no, Biden mindlessly reading a teleprompter is not a "stutter."
Dude, that is hardcore grasping at straws. To say it's a sign of dementia that Biden was mindlessly reading a teleprompter, if that's the case, then I can only imagine how many of our presidents had dementia. Even actors make those kinda mistakes when reading cue cards. Don't get me wrong, it's a funny and embarrassing moment, you're right to laugh. But that's obviously not the same as Trump thinking he ran against Obama in 2016.

Maybe. We can't know what was in his heart, all we can do is judge his actions. And really, what's the alternative? If a person leaves the KKK and starts fighting for civil rights, should we refuse to accept that person? All that would do is make it harder for racists to change. If Byrd was rejected by mainstream society, he'd probably have gone running back to the KKK, just to have a sense of community. One of the ways the Alt-Right keeps people from leaving is by making them think that if they leave, they'll never have any friends again. Nazis will see them as traitors and, no matter what they do, Liberals and Leftists will always see them as Nazis. They'll be alone for the rest of their lives. Personally, I believe people can change. And I want people to know that they can renounce bigotry, there are people like me who won't shun them for eternity.
So is Biden still racist? I don't know for sure. But as long as he's fighting against racism, as long as his actions are making the world better, I'll take him at his word.
If it did, the 'progressives' wouldn't be howling so much with rage.
What Progressives are you talking about? The Left was pretty mad when RFK was spreading Nazi conspiracy theories, because duh. But other than that, he's seen as just another right-wing lunatic.
No, it was mostly because she was so thoroughly unlikable. If she had had an ounce of old Bill's charm, she would have won easily.
Her personality, which comes off as completely fake, definitely hurt her. But it's also that Millennials and Zoomers are much further to the Left than Neo-Liberals like the Clintons. The media has portrayed the Clintons as radical Leftists for decades, so a lot of Boomers think they really are. The truth is, they're Neo-Liberals, whereas my generation is full of actual Socialists.
