Fuck that. Biden should make them regret this decision. If his candidacy is as DOA as everyone is pretending it is, then there's no incentive to play by the rules. Move fast and break stuff and get some shit done for a change.
Also,
Biden, under intense pressure after his disastrous debate performance against Trump last week
They just had to get it in there. Not a mention of Trump making shit up the whole time, or the raving lunatic shit he's saying on the campaign trail. 90 minutes of Biden being low energy and it's all over. "The other guy is too old, maybe we can do a little fascism. That will be OK, right?"
Where are you getting this? Jerry Only (bass) made a ton of campaign contributions to Trump. Doyle was also a bit of a conservative loon until during the first Trump term, and now he claims to be apolitical. Danzig also claims to be apolitical, but apparently his thing is Jewish conspiracy theories. It's been common knowledge in punk circles that the Misfits are right-wing.
fuck U.S. imperialism and all, but why would anarchists stan a dictator?
Eh, I would argue that this announcement is conveniently timed to try and win Trump-doubting conservatives with red meat after Biden's debate performance failed to convince anyone
I really fucking hate that anytime the Dems are in trouble, their default response is to make overtures to the center right. There are many, many more eligible voters who aren't just waiting for an excuse to vote for Trump like the "undecided" neocons. Fucking try giving the urban core something to vote for. Maybe try joining the 21st century and reconnecting with the left. Quit trying to save Republicans from themselves. It won't work and they're not worth it.
And gave a bunch of "objective" news outlets a good excuse to write a bunch of "DEMS IN PANIC AFTER BIDEN'S UNFORGIVABLE SHIT SHOW" articles they are for some reason eager to write
Corpo media want Trump, simple as. Not only do they get the tax breaks and regulation abatement for their parent companies, but the last Trump term was cocaine for news media consumption, as we were all bombarded with new disaster scenarios every week. News companies do not care about the people or "the good of the nation." They care about line go up.
I think so, and he's kissing her corpse bottom right
So Palestine. We're doing the Palestine argument again. What if I told you that support for Israel has been so baked into our foreign policy since its inception that no president alone can go against it without incurring the wrath of a neoliberal horde? Is Palestine suddenly the one issue that's worth committing political suicide over, just to make way for a worse, actual fascist autocrat who would be bff with Netanyahu while he erases the Palestinian people? I think Biden is shitty on Palestine, but I also think he's in a terrible spot and he's doing what he thinks he can against decades of foreign policy. The other guy would be shitposting on Truth Social about sending bombs to Palestinian children for Christmas.
Both want to move this country toward fascism
Explain
wtf is going on at NYT, ffs. is all the money in fact-phobic reactionary hackery these days?
I kind of hate how these lazyass "where did walking fossil x go" articles can still bring in the clicks when it's pretty fucking obvious where he's gone. since he's not in the White House, which is the other place we keep our aspiring undead, he's home in the Hills, drooling on his felted dressing gown at 3 p.m., just medicated out of time and space, waiting for the reaper's touch
The Democrats are still stuck in this post-Clinton seniority mindset where they unofficially pick a candidate before primaries even begin, based on who has been around the longest and who has held the highest position. Remember "it's her turn"? Yes, yes, I know it didn't work against Obama, but heading into the debates everyone assumed Hillary would be the candidate until Obama put on the better show. More to the point, I think Obama breaking through scared the establishment Dems into doubling down on primary fuckery. See what happened to Bernie, twice. So now we have a president who knows all the right people but plays politics with the 1990s rulebook and has a terminal case of crusty old man voice.
Still better than Trump.
You see, the mistake is thinking that the goal is to protect children. The goal is to punish women for exercising agency. If a woman gets pregnant, there should be a baby. If there isn't, she's cheating, and there will be consequences.
the fucker openly ran interference in the 2016 for Trump. he can rot
