I like Joe. He did infrastructure and the chips act. He's a meat and potatoes guy. But his best attribute will always be not being Donald Trump.
I don't like Joe. I'm still voting for him because he's not Donald Trump
Fun fact: 10% of Americans will vote for a guy that had his brain eaten by a worm. Just look at five thirty eight
Everyone that made 538 worth reading was laid off. Even Nate Silver is gone, and he took his model with him. We'll see how they do this election, but I'm not paying attention to them this election.
He also didn’t cause inflation or invade hamas or start a war in Afghanistan or any of the other things he was blamed for.
Now that you mention it, both of the last two Republican presidents signed off on huge bailouts and then blamed the inflation on their Democrat successor. Nixon would be proud!
Yeah that's what gets me about the news always acting like the economy would be better under trump somehow. It's his poor response to the pandemic that caused this whole situation we are in. It's bullshit. The prices started going up during COVID. I remember. People were hoarding toilet paper and we couldn't leave our homes without masks. Suddenly lumber prices skyrocketed from all the home projects people were doing while they were home. Then the price over other stuff started to go up randomly. I remember there were tariffs set on things from China too.
Then Biden took over and things slowly got back to normal but the prices are still high. If we get trump again things will get much worse again.
What's funniest to me is seeing all these posts having downvotes.
Conservatives mad and their tears are delicious.
Schadenfreude has never felt so good.
Or they read it as throwing shade on Biden for being nothing but "Not trump"
Which would be fair. The shade for running on being the least bad option twice, not the downvotes.
One is a convicted felon, 34 times over, and there is more on the way. The other has never been suspected of any criminal act.

So many idiots can't figure out who's really rigging the game against them, even when it's staring them in the face, blasting them with racist and fascist language and actions, with the breath of chronic bad health habits and the smell of soiled diaper.
Funny how the republicans did their best to start investigations and all they came up with is that his crack head son was bad, which everybody already knew. Good thing I’m not voting for hunter biden.
I'd vote for Hunter Biden if he was running against Trump. Sure he'd be a terrible President, but still better than Trump.
I'd vote for a pile of shit if it was running against Trump
I’d vote for a pile of shit if it was running against Trump
The pile of shit does have a better foreign policy than Trump's.
Don't forget found liable for rape too. Imo worse than his felony charges.
I'd vote for a convicted felon. Fuck, I almost was one.
Now, a pedophilic misogynistic cheeto? Nah, I'll take the sleepy dude.
This is why memes such as this are shitty. It throws convicted felons into the pile of just "bad people" and doesn't think anything of it.
Agreed. Nuance and meme rarely play well together though, so my expectations don't have me up in arms over it.
That kind of crap is how conservatives see people (in my experience), so it’s a little bit funny to see that reasoning turned against their ridiculous hero.
I think what's wild is that particular group's incredible thought process of "oh yeah, the current guy is just doing a hit job on this other guy because he's running for President. He's sending all these various agencies after him. blah blah blah..."
And I'm just like. Or you know, simple answer is that guy is doing crime stuff and ought not to be doing crime stuff. To really over simplify the most recent crime stuff. The crime was he wrote the wrong thing on the sheet of paper. You look at the paper, it says it's for lawyer stuff. You look at the receipts shows the money went to hide sex stuff. Lawyer stuff ≠ hide sex stuff. Ta-da!
And a bit more detail. The whole argument that hiding sex stuff wasn't political money. Literally a letter between crime guy and other person handling political stuff was, we need to hide this sex stuff otherwise that could hurt us in election stuff. Like I get it that there's some folks wanting to believe that President guy is just mad at crime guy and wants to whatever him so that President guy can stay in office. But crime guy literally admitted crime stuff in letters he thought no one else would ever read. Crime guy is not a very smart crime guy.
I don't like current guy, don't get me wrong. But crime guy is an idiot. I just don't want an idiot back as President. There's just way too many people hitched to an idiot here and willing to go down with the ship. Crime guy is an idiot and he's getting smacked with a lot of the crime shit he's done because he's an idiot. There's not any other way to slice this. Crime guy is just not good at anything and is coasting on mom and dad money still. If anything, that Crime guy is still floating on some money is a testament to Crime guy's book keeper.
I like presidents who aren't convicted felons.
Please explain to a non American, why a convicted felon not in federal prison but instead running for president?
I dont know, I'm Aussie, my politicians jack off on their colleagues work desks.
Orange man is litteraly a russian asset and it should be enough to jail him…
But to answer on a theorical level you cannot prevent felons from politic in a democratic society, otherwise you just throw accusations at your opponent to win elections and sadly it happen in a lot of places
That's a pretty low bar...
Be thankful we have a bar and pray that I don't remove it altogether. (/J)
Give Americans a couple of more terms and someone will run like that but without sarcasm.
Good enough for me.
On one side I have an old catholic bum who overall doesn't do much on the other I have a convicted felon who wishes to remove my human rights and wants to turn the country into a dictatorship.
As a centrist, I'm undecided...
Very low bar to clear. Wish we had higher standards for presidential candidates.
