So many liberals on this site that are willfully blind.
Joe Biden is no liberal
There are no liberals anymore. We have a ultra rightwing nationalist party and moderate right of center party.
He's obviously an alien. What kind of normal person goes to bed?

I mean we've all seen it considering the leaked video of him smoking crack. Also apart of that leak were the emails to Joe asking for political favours for economic benefits which amount to corruption by Biden. That must be alien to you.
This isn't really news.
It's not news that the President of one of the more powerful nations in the world can't answer questions coherently?
I'm sure you made a similar thread when the last president couldn't speak coherently either.
Lemmy wasn't around then but yes I would have.
Lemmy is more than 4 years old but 🆗
Oh cool, I didn't know. I would have posted about shitty things Trump did had I known that.
Still better than the last one.
Well, despite the fact that I hate Trump, I think the Democrats are fucked by picking Joe Biden as the candidate for 2024.
Biden is terrible for the working class. He started his Presidency by going back on the campaign promise of $2k stimulus checks, couldn't forgive student loans as promised, broke a strike which then led to multiple train disasters, billions in aid to Ukraine but lets the US crumble under cost-of-living crises, and generally ignoring the fact that he should be retired at his age instead of running this country is not helping anyone except the Right.
Biden will be the last Democrat President the way this is going. Pathetic way to go out.

To say "breaking the strike led to train disasters" is so far beyond gross oversimplification it boggles the mind.
I'm willing to admit the causality is overstated, but he still should not have broken that strike. And, yes, I read the article and it is commendable that they continued to pressure the companies for sick days which they eventually approved. But an important question is: When did they grant it?
From what I can see, they granted workers paid time in May/June 2023. Better late than never.
But the Palestine railroad disaster happened in Februrary 2023. I'm willing to say that this event, in light of the lack of the strike, was what allowed for there to be enough pressure to make the train companies grant the sick days concession. I bet if it didn't happen, there wouldn't be sick days now. It would have just been better if the strike happened which could have led to sick days potentially without the Palestine incident (especially if they were on strike).
I'm no Biden fan but the real problem is that many liberals especially younger ones read nothing besides sensational headlines and live on social media rage bait.
Really? That's the real problem, huh? Interesting analysis.
"Biden will be the last Democrat President the way this is going. Pathetic way to go out."
uhhhh, sure, whatever you say.
When sleep deprived? No, I have the same problem, as do most normal humans.
What a straw man.
You aren't that bright are you? I mean, majority consensus in here is that you're being ridiculous, but it's fine.
Well the majority of you are bots and shills so I'm just trying to keep Lemmy going with real political opinions.

I'm no fan of Trump but the defense that Biden is better than the alternative is weirdly defeatist.

Ahh so your a bot.

Oh no I meant it more in the Rick and Morty shooting the insect soldiers in the first episode, "Rick you said they weren't alive" "They're bureaucrats Morty, I don't respect them." You're just repeating lame talking points. But it's OK you deserve the brain dead candidate you support.
Have you not seen what the GOP are putting forward as candidates? It's not defeatist, it's realistic.
Why post this trash
He's just like me lol
You're old and shouldn't be in the position you're in right now. Sucks.
Wow, he sleeps just like me. Astonishing.
You're in a cult.
Only war criminals go to bed.
