Biden has always been a piece of shit. That said, he's old, his other son is dead, and his loser son got caught up in a shitstorm that had less to do with justice and everything to do with politics and optics. The country decided that it is happy to go down the a fully corrupt, inept and fascist rabbit hole, and Biden opted to save his loser son and tell everyone to go fuck themselves and go suck an mushroom shaped cock.

but

EDIT: Don't get mad at an old man for choosing to save his son. Be mad at a system that allows a man to abuse his power to protect his friends and family from consequences. For once, a proper use of "Don't hate the player, hate the game".

I'm not surprised or shocked he did it. Only saddened he refuses to do anything else

Biden issued a blanket pardon starting in 2014. What was Hunter Biden doing in 2014 and how does this reflect on the idea of him simply passively getting "caught up" in something?

[-] JustJack23@slrpnk.net 9 points 4 months ago

In this case the players make the game at least a bit.

Him pardoning his son is a giant nothing burger.

Hunter was the victim of a partisan witch hunt that wanted to get him on Trumped up charges (pun intended) because of his last name.

[-] TheOubliette@lemmy.ml 24 points 4 months ago

Biden is sharpening the knife that will be used against every other family while saving his crackhead failson.

[-] actually@lemmy.world 11 points 4 months ago

Biden is not sharpening the knife: he simply placed a knife sharpener on the counter and is a good sport about letting others use it .

It always was a caretaker presidency, that’s what I thought when he first got into office.

I expect thoughtful words from his speeches as he gently leaves office

[-] TheOubliette@lemmy.ml 13 points 4 months ago

The Biden admin is already going after Palestinian solidarity orgs and ramping up powers to use the military domestically.

Oh course. Certainly don't mention the Democrat party that ran two uncompelling candidates against the most flawed opponent in history, spent 2.5 billion dollars in 15 weeks while having almost no presence nationally, and give the American people nothing to get excited about, exerting no effort while expecting IQs above 100 and plenty of involvement from every voting American in order to win, even though those Americans don't really understand that inflated prices aren't going down but that's not the administration's problem, they're not going to change anything.

WHAT COULD GO WRONG?

[-] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 31 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

What could go wrong is millions of childish idiots would decide to walk across broken glass barefoot because they don't like the choices of shoes available. And then blame it on whoever brought the shoes.

[-] WrenFeathers@lemmy.world 11 points 4 months ago

Well said.

[-] SuperSaiyanSwag@lemmy.zip 11 points 4 months ago

I don’t disagree with you fully, both things are to be blamed here. An average person should do a proper research before voting, but a party should also give people what they want instead of forcing specific candidates. To be blunt, good amount of voters are idiots and ignorant, so it’s party’s responsibility to figure out what they want and then base their campaign on that. Thats where primaries can play a huge part.

[-] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

The Democratic Party did try to campaign based on what they thought the public wanted and what the country needed, and more than 74 million people showed up and voted for her. The 10 million or so Democrats who voted in 2020 but didn't in 2024, who could have changed the outcome but didn't, can't blame the party for their own fuckheadedness.

[-] jatone@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 4 months ago

You see thats the problem, you didn't bring shoes. you literally spread the glass. bringing shoes would have meant having policies that would actually help working americans.

[-] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I showed up and voted. The problem was y'all who didn't. You also literally don't understand what the word "literally" means.

“Hypocrisy isn’t illegal, nor is it particularly unusual in politics,” Stewart said Monday about Biden’s pardon. “It’s not like he’s ever going to run again. So why not take care of your kid, even if you said you weren’t gonna? I respect it. I don’t have a problem with it.”

Suck it whiners.

Go pass your own purity tests.

May I ask, why does this get so downvoted?😅

[-] finderscult@lemmy.ml 22 points 4 months ago

The bad .world instance has access to this instance, and they absolutely hate when you insult their God king or their preferred side of the uniparty.

[-] davel@lemmy.ml 13 points 4 months ago

Not all of the downvotes are from .world, and quite a few of the upvotes are from .world. It’s best not to overgeneralize.

[-] BlastboomStrice@mander.xyz 10 points 4 months ago

Yeah, I'd want to hear an opinion from someone who actually downvoted it, cuz I still dont exactly get what's wrong with the meme that would give it such a bad score.😅

The only difference between you and a Trump voter was the position of your hand on the ballot.
