His hubris will keep him in the race and he’ll bring everyone down with him
And despite everything she had done, RBG’s legacy will be how she fucked us with the Supreme Court
Honestly this is a pretty common mistake old people make. They latch on to who they used to be a detach from reality. Classic dementia symptoms
You say this as if Pelosi isn’t in a similar boat, leading the sinking ship she refuses to get off of because she’ll have nothing to do and no one to boss around anymore.
All of the DNC leadership are there in their 80+ glory. Constantly in the way of actually winning by making the decision they want in a vacuum ignoring the real world, and further ignoring everything that happens after that point. They did it with Hilary, they did it with Biden the first time (only winning because Trump clearly let millions die from COVID, and even then it was still somehow close). They just expect Dems to vote because the alternative is worse, instead of giving people an actual reason to do so, and are always surprised by the outcomes.
The DNC made their choice last year and it was never going to be different. The only reason they’re talking about it now is because the debate that was never going to be a positive for Biden in any universe, was handled poorly, to the surprise of no one actually paying attention.
Biden is defensive by nature. He got super defensive when he was told how fucked up the Afghanistan withdrawl went, and again when told people were complaining about the economy.
Makes sense that he got defensive when people complained about the Afghanistan withdrawal when he was just following through with the previous administration’s policy decision.
Agreed he didn’t have a choice in doing it, the problem was the execution of it.
Then he said stupid shit like:
“The Taliban is not the south—the North Vietnamese army. They’re not—they’re not remotely comparable in terms of capability. There’s going to be no circumstance where you see people being lifted off the roof of a embassy in the—of the United States from Afghanistan. It is not at all comparable,”
And then…
This is a laugh or you’ll cry moment lmao. Bernie I wish you had like half of trump’s personality and told Biden to eat shit in 2020.
For all the vaguely bigoted caricatures of him as the quintessential grumpy old (Jewish) man from Brooklyn, Bernie’s biggest problem was always that he’s far too nice to people who stab him in the back (and front) and makes up all sorts of heinous things about him.
Classic examples from 2016 is when Hillary said that Bernie didn’t have “real grandchildren” and he said nothing, or when he shot himself in the foot politically by telling the truth that “people are sick and tired of hearing about the damn emails” while she gave her most manically gleeful witch cackle.
Wait, what? Doesn’t have real grandchildren? Were they adopted? What a horrible thing to say.
If it wad said privately, it wouldn’t be here.
polls show he cannot win and will take down the House
Oh, but when I say it, I’m a paid shill.
