The question Joe Biden keeps asking: ‘You think we can actually come back from this?’

The line Joe Biden used to put into nearly every big speech — “I’ve never been more optimistic about America’s future” — is a long way from what he…

Then why didnt he do more to prevent it?
Yes it’s definitely Biden’s fault that Americans gave the republicans the house, senate and presidency.

Actually, I do blame him for overestimating his health, and thinking he had enough in the tank for another run. He clearly did not.

Would Harris have still been the nominee had there been an actual primary? Maybe, maybe not. But whoever won that would have been a better candidate.

I was extremely pissed off after watching that debate. The man I saw that night simply didn’t have it anymore, and it was more than just jeylag or a cold. There was nobody close to Biden who could have sat down with him before the election and told him directly that he didn’t have it anymore?

We talk about how Trump surrounds himself with yes-men and sycophants. I think Biden didn’t do much better.

Biden was one of the best presidents in my lifetime and he would have been for a second run too.

Being a white male he probably could have pulled off the win again too.

I will never get sick of centrists thinking they are saying something moderate they think people can agree on getting ratio’d by the reality they are very, very alone in their beliefs.

Getting ratio’d on this site by people who don’t put up candidates, organize parties or hardly even vote doesn’t mean much.

Democrats are by far either the most popular or the second most popular party in the states in every single modern election.

Democrats and liberals are not alone in our beliefs.

Getting ratio’d on this site by people who don’t put up candidates, organize parties or hardly even vote doesn’t mean much.

Actually, you are fucking with a very engaged crowd that is by and large far more politically educated and engaged than you are, which is why you are getting ratio’d with pushback.

I’ve had more pushback before plus I’ve seen what makes the leftists cheer so I’m not exactly looking for their approval just trying to get them to open their eyes a bit.
…So you agree you’re not a leftist?

I’ve explained this before.

I used to be much more left than I am now.

Spending time on this site and seeing how the leftists keep gatekeeping and infighting lead me to believe they’d never be a useful political bloc so I became a liberal so I can help defeat the republicans.

Any sane political movement would welcome me under their tent but leftists spend most of their time telling others they aren’t good enough to be there until it’s a thousand small tents with one or two people under each one.

Re-read my comment if that’s what you took from it.
What I’m reading is you were fine with being a leftist while it gave you the moral highground to lord over others… until someone even lefter than you showed up and got the moral highground over you, then you decided purity tests are bullshit.

so I became a liberal so I can help defeat the republicans.

You mean like the democrats who are in full control of their primary process and who pushed liberal sweethearts hillary, then biden, and then harris down our throats? Those are the liberals helping to defeat republicans?

Biden was one of the best presidents of my lifetime and Clinton and Harris would have been up there too.
I usually agree with you over the non-voting leftists here, but I have to say I agree with them that Biden clearly wasn’t fit for another election, and his selfish decision to run again may be largely responsible for Trump’s second term.
