    Like I said, Biden is still going, so there is no “inaction”. The agenda just hasn’t been announced. Do you have any clue what’s involved in putting the President on the street with workers? We know it can be done because Biden has done it before, unlike every president before him. However, it’s not something that an administration is going to be able to announce on a whim the moment his plans need to change. Seriously, get a fucking clue.

      If Biden’s security is too difficult, there are ways for the office of the President to send a signal. Besides Harris, a White House spokesperson can show up. Then Biden can go on TV and support the strikers from his White House office. Like a one two punch.

        Ways like announcing his support of the union and intention to still go despite the canceled speech? Yeah, he did that. Harris could go, sure, but Biden is going.

        I never said his security is “too difficult”. I just takes time to work out the details and plan where he will go, how long he will be there, and how he will be protected. There is no need for him to announce specifics at right this fucking second anyways. Again, Biden is the only President who has ever walked a picket line with workers.

        I seriously don’t think you can be as dumb as you pretend. Another agenda is at play.

          Biden has gone against the railroad strike in the past and I have not forgiven that.

          I thought the last time Biden appeared on TV was the ABC News interview. Did I miss another appearance? I apologize if I did.

          I am going to demand the world from my president. Always.

            You’re literally demanding that things which could not have yet happened, to have already happened. You’re talking in past tense about a future event, and getting mad at Biden for not having done something which could not have yet taken place.

            Watch those goalposts just leap all over the place. Now we’re supposed to litigate your idiotic interpretation of the railroad strike? You haven’t forgiven him? The railroad union has. In fact they thanked him for his involvement in negotiating with the railroad and getting them a better deal.

            Who said anything about TV? You’re on the Internet. The year is 2024. You aren’t really this stupid.

              Dude… this conversation was fucking hilarious. I don’t know how you have such patience, but it paid off! Well done!
