He is making the greatest mistake of his career. What a shame to let pride and greed do this to the legacy he leaves behind

He is making the greatest mistake of his career.

And considering he voted for the Iraq War... oof.

[-] cosmicrookie@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Does he really think that he is the best candidate or does he intentionally ignore the possibility of someone else having better chances of winning?

To me it sounds like greed and pride affecting his judgement. What a shame to add this to ones legacy

He's mistaking qualifications with electability. To be fair, boomers grew up in a society that was much more of a meritocracy and he's probably confused about what century he's in.

Well, if he had a long life ahead of him, he should worry a lot since donnie and his goons will seek to lock him up. This country will not be at peace if Biden fails.

If the neofascist movement captures America, the only thing standing between humanity and disaster will be the British and French nuclear arsenals.

The small solace I have in this universe is that the same worms will eat him

So given this, imo Biden is saying the quiet part out loud.

Maybe it’s just me, but I’m getting a whole: “I’m doing this for you and if you don’t appreciate it I’m just gonna lose and enjoy my money with a trump presidency”

Americans can put Biden in the ballot or else they get the trump again

[-] anticurrent@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

The people who truly govern American will continue doing so no matter who wins the presidency.

Funny how those people run things very differently depending on which party us in power. Almost like the secret cabal you're imagining doesn't actually run everything.

They let you fight on identity politics, while they keep raking in most of the profits. divide to conquer

Do you know that many Big money election donors, donate to both parties at the same time ?

Do you know that in the previous Congressional elections the Democratic party Funded many Republican campaigns ???

[-] lolcatnip@reddthat.com 3 points 2 years ago

You say "identity politics", I say human rights.

[-] btaf45@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

If the neofascist movement captures America, the country will become so enshitified that their profits will go down.

[-] halferect@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

The rest of us will be thrown into a existential crises but as long a biden is at peace it's all good
