We kept trying to warn the centrists but they wouldn't listen...
  • It might be more effective if Biden 's brain hadn't melted between the 2020 election and today. Go back and watch his debates from 4 years ago, and you'll see that he had no problem tearing Trump's lies apart.

  • We kept trying to warn the centrists but they wouldn't listen...
  • Ah, the genetic fallacy. How sad it must be to live in a world where you judge ideas solely based on where they came from. I guess we know how you got into this mess to start with!

    For all of us that realize Trump is a threat to democracy but aren't completely bought in on DNC propaganda, please try to do better.

  • Democrats say Trump is an existential threat. They’re not acting like it.
  • Biden and the DNC knew that if he was forced to actually debate in an open primary, he'd be weakened as a candidate and would eventually lose to Trump. So they rigged the primary, hoped they could sneak a senile old man through without us realizing, and now they got caught.

    The people in power are perfectly content to lose the cycle and try again in 2028. Newsom, Whitmer, etc. are all lining up to run against Trump's VP next cycle since he's term limited. And the reason Biden hasn't been thrown overboard yet is that the other potential candidates haven't decided if they want to throw away their carefully laid plans for 2028 to take a gamble here in 2024.

    The only people that truly believe Trump winning in 2024 means there won't be an election in 2028 are the most myopic hyper partisan Democrat voters, and they believe that because it's a useful fallacy for the Democratic elite to have them believe. Because fear is the only motivator they have left at this point. But their actions clearly show that they don't believe it themselves.

  • Why are we wasting our server bandwidth on shit takes?
  • If only there was an international body charged with prosecuting international crimes, and if there was such a body, thank God it’s Biden in the white house and not Trump, who would surely obstruct bringing justice and pressure to the Isreali leaders conducting the war crimes.

    I'm just going to leave this link here for you.... Hopefully you'll have the good sense to delete this comment once you see how incredibly wrong you are. Biden is doing - TODAY - the thing you were afraid Trump might possibly do next year.

    Biden administration signals it will support push to hit ICC with sanctions

  • Biden is dramatically out of touch with voters on Gaza. He may lose because of it | Moira Donegan
  • I'd rather let Trump win so that the Western states can finally have the motivation they need to secede and I can become a citizen of Cascadia and stop having to worry about all the nonsense in DC. And if the secession goes bad, the red states attack, and the fighting turns against us... I plan to sail up north to B.C. and request asylum.

    Climate change already prevented me from ever considering having a family, so luckily I fit perfectly into the "disaffected military aged male" category that can risk it all in the hope of a better future. I pity the rest of you who would choose complacency and the path of least resistance over doing what's right.

    Sometimes the best thing that can happen is for things to get worse, because that can prompt you to end your complacency and make the changes you should have made long ago. When people of good conscience are forced to support a literal genocide because of how broken our system is.... I think we've reached that point.

  • Majority of Americans wrongly believe US is in recession – and most blame Biden
  • I bought my first house in 2009 - $125,000 on an income of $45,000. I even got a first time homebuyer credit of ~$8,000 to help make the purchase easier.

    I make a little over $200,000 today, and I'm completely priced out of the market. I doubt I'll ever own a home again and am currently living in a rundown old sailboat.

    I'd take 2008 over this economy any day of the week!

  • Investing strategy
  • My last 6 posts were removed and I was called a Russian troll for daring to suggest that Biden's support of the Palestinian genocide is going to cost him the election. I've given up on commenting and will stick to lurking going forward. As a Bernie supporter who migrated to Portland, OR after Trump won the election in 2016, it feels incredibly weird to be called an Alt-Right or Russian agitator simply for pointing out flaws in the current administration.

    ‘This person should not be president’: Kamala Harris takes hits in book on Biden

    Considering Kamala Harris’s fitness to take over from Joe Biden should the need arise, a top aide to the former California senator’s 2020 campaign said: “This person should not be president of the United States.”

    Harris saw heavy staff turnover, with aides describing a toxic climate riven with factionalism and mismanagement. One source who worked for the vice-president declined to go on record or even discuss matters anonymously, due to the heated atmosphere around the office.

    “They refused to characterise the experience of working for Harris, apart from offering a three-word assessment. It was, they said: ‘Game of Thrones’.”
