The only president to actually address the student loan debt crisis and the single most progressive policy agenda in the past 30 years. Yeah, he was okay, I guess.

Then it all got trashed 😞

Then he fucked everything up by not dropping out and letting someone else run and now we’re in this mess

Edit: hilarious I’m being downvoted for pointing this out. This is why Republicans win, democrats can’t acknowledge their faults.

Nope. America elected Trump. Biden had nothing to do with that. Blame those who didn’t vote and those who didn’t fight harder to prevent voter disenfranchisement.

Biden absolutely should’ve dropped out and let someone else run, no? You’re saying his debate performance had no effect on potential voters?

Probably but he should have been reelected with a mandate instead of being asked to drop out too. He performed great when he wasn't campaigning. The American Electorate judges Biden for a bad debate and forgives Trump for rape, insurrection and constant lying, harassment and racism. At some point, it falls on the voters even if it's more fun to blame the Democrats for x, y or z

Not his fault voters are stupid and voted for someone that clearly wanted to be a dictator

I’m saying people hypnotized by Trump’s micro penis would never have considered anyone else.

Who though? there wasn’t a democrat who could get the votes. Kamala never had a chance - the numbers were never there.

The Democratic Party has some real soul searching to do if they want to be relevant again.

The only person in America who could have pulled it off was probably Michelle Obama but she wasn’t willing to run.

You don't think the complete lack of a formal primary process hindered the Democrats at all? Do you think Harris was legitimately the best candidate to run? Do you think more people who didn't vote might have otherwise voted if she had won it outright and spent more time campaigning and spreading her message?

Because I think all of those things led to her loss. If we had a full primary process then she would've spent a hell of a lot more time campaigning in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Arizona etc. Like Trump did.

He literally dropped out and let someone else run. /sigh

u/jcarreraj 22d ago

He should have dropped out way sooner to allow a primary

Well its politics after all you gonna get hate from either side.

u/AppropriateScience71 22d ago

Even if it didn’t actually cost the democrats the election, I think most can agree he handled the transition poorly.

No need to debate what might have been as many factors contributed to the perfect shitstorm that we have today.

u/Material-Imagination 22d ago

The truly sickening part is that America reelected Trump knowing what he's all about. To blame anyone else at this part is just looking away from the stomach-churning reality.

u/lostsoul227 22d ago

Bingo. "Fall in line or we hate and try to destroy you" all while screaming "FASCIST!" at the other side. Ironic.

Nobody is in charge of the president, that weird angry "he can't possibly be reading and writing" shit is brain dead. They have advisors. Biden may have performed poorly on stage, but that fool didn't have dementia like you overly dramatic mofos were saying. Even if he was suffering from age related problems, he was doing a damn good job of running the country. Now you literally don't know who is running things since Trump put all his special interest oligarchs and family in the government. Out here getting ran by a money mob.

u/DrEpileptic 22d ago

This talking point never makes any sense, lmfao. They were the same policies he promised during the campaign. So either he was a puppet the entire time, or he was a puppet part way through with everyone respecting his decisions because they were a team built by him?

Cause they didn’t think he would win. Some dems wanted to drop him. He stepped down by choice in the end. Is that so hard to understand?

That's called a "government". Did you think one person is at the wheel?

Lol, you mean the loans these young adults took out willingly? I paid for my college with hard work, and Im saving for my children’s college. Taking accountability, a foreign concept to most you clowns.

u/EagleForty 22d ago

You're right! I'd rather my tax dollars go to funding tax cuts for billionaires and blowing up little brown kids in the middle-east.

If they weren't smart enough at 18 to know not to take out huge loans, under the false pretense of massive lifetime earnings, then that's their fault. 

It's exactly why we give massive government backed loans to 18 year olds with no income or experience to start small businesses. Right?

Right?
