President Joe Biden

President Joe Biden

Right now, we need VP Biden, we need him to step down and drop out so Bernie sanders can save this country from this global crisis just like FDR.

A thread to debate the efficacy of a Joe Biden Presidency in the midst of a global pandemic and impending Great Recession/Depression.

Where is Joe Biden? Can he beat Trump and is he even trying to? What would a Joe Biden Presidency look like in these times? Where is he and why isn't he leading?

Thats if you ignore the general violent rhetoric where he promises retribution and calls Democrats and Immigrants vermin and all that jazz that I'm sure you think is just playful banter or whatever

Much like all your gotchas this is easily explained.

He refused to give up office on his last day. Before then it was just general stupidity and racism.

Then his Supreme Court took away women’s rights

Then his Supreme Court gave presidential immunity

This happened after his presidency was over but makes people who live here and who respect democracy uneasy.

It doesn’t take a bitcoin maxi to understand that

so does this mean he'll be able to revive Keystone or not?

This is really funny.
Anti-Trumpers have all these fears he'll do xyz.
- OK, but he didn't do xyz in 4 years last time.
AT: No you don't get it. He totally will this time. He's a dictator.

We already had this little chat, slugger. Certain impediments that were present last time are no longer present. Try to remember our little chats, otherwise it will feel like a total waste of time having them.

The chat was about Keystone champ. Let Bobo know those impediments are now gone so he doesn't need to belittle other posters.

It wasn't though, was it, peanut? You brought up the whole "threat to democracy", and how Trump is not one because he failed at it thing again.

Right, which totally mirrors your argument to everyone who said that he's a dangerous dictator that "he didn't do dictatorial stuff last time", otherwise what would be the point of you bringing it up? What does Keystone have to do with being a dictator, absent that context?


The ol "just trolling Bobo" bit might fly if you weren't trying to repeat a point, nearly word for word, that you made within the last week or so

I think at this point its safe to write Housenuts off as deeply unserious

I'm saying you can't have it both ways.

If he's going to be a dictator and do whatever he wants, don't say look at how he didn't get Keystone done in his first 4 years, and then sarcastically say oh but he's totally gonna get it done this time.

I don't know anything about Keystone, so I don't know why he failed to get it done. If it was because he tried but was prevented by democratic checks and balances and a VP who was unwilling to cooperate, then you have a point. Otherwise, it's just more
transparent sophistry on your part.

I'm still holding out hope that he's just of average intelligence for a right winger, which seems to be a standard deviation or two removed from overall average intelligence, so it might take a couple or five attempts to get some of the basics to land.

Why you can’t ?
Laws changes and the SC seem more incline to let trump do w.e he likes .
SC even went 50 years in the past to overturn roe right ?
What trump could do then and what he can do now seem vastly different no ?

Yes, so let Bobo know he can get Keystone done now. I'm not the one who needs convincing.

Environmental groups and permits be damned. The Dictator will push it through.

“We know President Trump’s permit was unconstitutional, and we have every confidence that the federal courts will set aside these approvals,” said Steve Volker, who represents the Indigenous Environmental Network.

I don't think you've ever added anything worthy of discussion. You're just an ostrich with his head in the sand that occasionally pokes his head up and shrieks whenever someone says something that doesn't adhere to your far left ideologies.

I’ve answered your “very serious” questions on multiple occasion and you literally never internalize it, often responding with a troll or just ignoring to repeat the question at a later date.

I’m reminded of the troll meme. “Haha, they think I’m an idiot but I’m just pretending to be an idiot so they are idiots for thinking I’m an idiot because I’m only pretending to be an idiot”

I'm not sure what your point here is, but I thought mine was pretty straightforward. Lozen mentioned wanting Trump to win because I guess he hopes he'll get the next Keystone pipeline phase happening. Given that Trump failed to do so in his first four years, I see no reason to assume he would do so given four more years, hence the sarcasm. Why you're bringing the dictator stuff into this, I have no idea.

Pro posting tip: When attempting a hypocrisy gotcha, best to save it for someone who has actually done the first thing.

That seems a little rich coming from a guy who's been trolling with 'Where's Biden', 'Need proof of life for Biden' all day.

Here's the party line for you. Don't forget to read your daily campaign booster emails so you can remember all the talking points.

Congrats, that post made even less sense than the others. I'll take the change in topic to mean you realized your error. If not, perhaps someone else can find a simpler way to explain it to you.
