2 years he might come to regret that decision in January when Trump usess his new powers to lock his ass up.
If fucking Biden lose in November he better use that new gift to stop Trump. Dumbass really wants to use this to fundraiser on, Biden so out of fucking touch he got no clue that we are just this vote away from a Christofascist state.
He knows, but the thing is that the Democrats are about as afraid of fascism as you are gasoline in your car. They use the threat of fascism to help scare people to the polls and to donate money, which is partly why they never seem to be in a big hurry to squash it. Problem being, of course, that people eventually get fear fatigue and stop paying attention. Kinda like how in the wake of 9/11, the government would announce terror threat levels, and they were always orange or red, indicating super double plus serious danger, and eventually people stopped caring because life must go on. Well, people get fatigued of it and then the fascists win again, which provides another big, though temporary, shot of support to the democrats. Meanwhile, the democrats don’t have to make any real, serious campaign or policy commitments besides “don’t be fascist”. Everything else they do (and don’t get me wrong, they do some good stuff sometimes) is just running up the score. So, for the centrist democrats that run the DNC and Biden campaign, this feels like a pretty good Wednesday for fundraising, even though we all see it as the literal end of the Republic. They’ve been walking on the ice so long, they’re convinced that while it is thin, they couldn’t possibly fall through.
Plenty of the sitting Dems in Congress are millionaires who think they will do well under fascism anyway.
The Dems LARP as an anti-GOP force while secretly being OK with the GOP policies. It’s all theater for the plebs, to convince us the lesser evil is keeping a larger evil at bay. All lies.
That’s why the Dems are so goddamn anemic. The Dems love the status quo too, they just want little tweaks here and there, nothing disruptive.
Gavin Newsom (D) is why California does not have single payer healthcare today.
Id follow that logic right up until the part where rich people get consequences. No one is more prepared for either outcome of the election then they are. Democrat fundraising was all time high under Trump, Biden may see his personal fundraising go up and his stocks grow if he loses. No one is less invested in the real consequences of their own actions then politicians.
Not just suicide at this point. We’re looking at massacres. If Trump takes power by any means, political prisoners are guaranteed. It’s the only way they stay powerful. And political prisoners have a very short lifespan.
Once political prisoners are taken, it’s all downhill from there.
Thanks for the link. Here’s the least bad news from the article:
Even more dispiriting for Americans who want to see real reform? The most optimistic view any of the campaign surrogates could offer Monday was a promise that Biden would at least “have conversations” about court reform that would be non-starters under Trump.
Crockett is part of a group of Democratic lawmakers advancing three separate pieces of court reform legislation — bills that would expand the court, implement term limits, and impose a binding ethics code on justices, respectively. “If we get the House, these are bills that we are going to try to push forward with,” Crockett said Monday. “I can guarantee you that if Trump is elected, he will never sign these into law.”
She added: “If Joe Biden is elected, we can at least sit down, have conversations and talk about why it’s important to institute these court reforms.”
For now, the prospect of future conversations is the most that Biden campaign surrogates can offer American voters — which is more than than the campaign itself was offering.

This is the same language they used in 2020 for all the progressive stuff. That he then did nothing substantive on.
And his die hard supporters on here wonder why people don’t want to vote for Biden just because it keeps Trump out of office. Biden isn’t fighting this fight. The democrats are asleep at the wheel, another 4 years of, “oh no, poor me, SCOTUS said we can’t do this, we just have to executive order the most conservative policy in 60 years.” Does not excite the people who are willing to go vote.
Ive seen it before, the article is some nonsense about…her trying to win an election against Biden? Biden is shit and I agree with her criticisms. Then it’s trying to say she never criticizes Trump when most of her criticisms of Biden are pejoratively comparing him to Trump. Trump being shit is a given.
Oh, the audacity of that woman to go and get pictured with Putin like that, in public, at a larger conference, in the interest of actual diplomacy.
Surely this is on the same level of treachery as a closed door meeting with no American translator. Or the eternal fanning of war flames by neolibs in order to fund the military industrial complex.
Fucking let’s go. Do it.
Bidens guys already came out saying they don’t want to reform the Supreme Court. It’s not on the ballot this cycle.
Yeah I just saw that. Ridiculous.
And in 2 years he’ll probably “regret” not doing anything.

I ALMOST want to vote Trump just to see SOMEONE (like Biden) FINALLY receive Consequences for their Actions! ALMOST.
You want to make Trump the first king of the United States to punish Biden for… what, exactly? Failing to stop Trump?
What the fuck kind of logic is that?

Shut your bigmachole.
In 2 years he’ll be in a Federal prison (if not executed). Trump has basically promised it.
Refusing to stop Trump is literally suicidal on Biden’s part.

2 years he might be dead.
That’s why I didn’t say 4 years lol
Link pls? I missed it.

Yall gonna hate me, but it is on the presidential ballot, Jill Stein has come out supporting term limits and expanding the court after this fiasco.
You mean Russian Asset Jill Stein?
Is this that one photo again? Why yes it is. Surely you wouldn’t vote for a candidate with photos of being friendly with Putin
It’s more than the photo and you know it.
But it is the same old photo, i knew what it was gonna be before i even clicked it
Righto, I suppose you also support the annexation of Ukraine like your hero does? That makes you the enemy of democracy.
Ill wait here while you find her supporting that
How about you read the actual rather than just looking at the thumbnail.

Sure, but only if we had ranked choice voting.
no, she’s going to be on the ballot whether we have ranked choice or no.
She supports that too
She’s got my vote!
A vote for that traitor is a vote for both Russian assets.
Oh, the audacity of that woman to go and get pictured with Putin like that, in public, at a larger conference, in the interest of actual diplomacy.

“Let’s go” what? What will you go do?
I hear that phrase from the most worthless folks. Then Deadpool…
“Let’s go” means Jack shit… so those who say it are saying what?
You can go. No one cares.
Oh man, someone woke up the idiot today. Are Wednesdays the day you’re allowed to talk to other people?
Let’s go? By all means let Bernie off the chain…
Go back to bed moron.
