Boy that dementia's really settling in, huh?

I'll never get over how people gave me shit for thinking dropping out of the race 4 months before the election to push for kamala was the dumbest fuckin thing any of them could've done.

Now we are where we are.

Where are all you jackasses now?

Right here, happy to tell Joe Biden he's fucking wrong and his party knows it.

Biden's ass got thrown to the curb because even armchair political analysts with access to only public data could read the writing on the wall. He was so unpopular he was effecting donors and down-ballot races.

The only reason Joe doesn't realize he had no chance is because he's so dementia-addled he has forgotten. Kamala Harris running on Joe Biden's platform could not do it, how on earth do you seriously think Joe could?

In a world where we could have stopped doing the fascists' work for them by calling him old and senile and attacking him at every step? Yeah. I think he would have. Americans like old white guys who enable genocide. Americans hate women. Especially brown women.

That said? I also think we needed the "We have a better choice" of Kamala and the real problem is just that people don't fucking care enough to vote.

So for all my many many many many problems with how the Democrats have handled the election and the fallout of it... I'll give a mulligan on this.

I’ll give a mulligan on this.

Then you're just another centrist absolutely determined to learn nothing from this catastrophe on your watch.

Fuck off, dude. Your legacy will be known not for your accomplishments but for how your hubris has done irreparable harm to the future of this country and future generations.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
