Well you didn't work hard at all on prosecuting traitors even after the supreme court handed you a golden ticket to do official acts so this mess is your fault bud. Take comfort that you won't have to live long with the consequences of your failures just like the rest of the geriatrics in your party that won't get the fuck out of the way.

Not hard enough.
Is he actually this stupid? He can't actually be this stupid, can he?
Didn't uphold the 14th ammendment. That would have solved it all.
Genocide geriatric Joe didn’t prevent a fascist accelerationist takeover of the US.
You can only do so much in a democracy within the law. If you ignore the law and Constitution we are seeing now how things can be done instantly, but it's all illegal.
I would have had a bullet in his head on January 7th. Damn the consequences.
Joe, I get it, but the path forward was clear. Execute Trump, Roberts,Thomas, Barrett, and beer boi, and a handful of Senate and house GOP members for treason, as an executive act.
Someone would take it to the supreme Court, in the remaining liberal justices, since they have a respect for the law, would make the pretty obvious ruling that according to previous rulings what Joe Biden did wouldn't have been illegal at the time. But that moving forward no US president is allowed to violate the law as part of their official duties, at least concerning US citizens.
Then Biden can appoint new judges to the supreme Court which will be approved by a now democratic majority house and Senate. That was the play. That was the only way he was going to save the f****** country and he didn't have the balls to do it. So this is no country for old men.
He went on to add "but I am really happy with presinald Trump's continued support for Israel's genocide. I may not agree with him on everything, but at least he understand how important it is to slaughter Palestinians!"
“Being a good father,” Biden said.
Do good fathers exonerate their children for corruption?
I recognize that Hunter was a target of right-wing lawfare, but I maintain that a blanket parden of all 'nonviolent crimes' for over a decade is the wrong tool for the job.
If it wasn't trump coming in next I doubt he would have done it.
It was to protect him from the crazy MAGA lunatics, if it wasn't a blanket pardon the right would have manufactured something to get him with. There are plenty of things to criticise Biden for, but this is something I believe any parent would have done in that situation, and its completely fair and the right thing to do.
MAGA is not and will never play fair.
See, that's the thing: I know it was against any arbitrary charges that were known to come, but as you say - MAGA won't hold themselves to reason, so rational preemption won't work. And the actual crimes Hunter was convicted of during that time were absolved. All after Biden Sr avowed he would not pardon him.
I don't have children, so I cannot fault his devotion to his kid, but I still feel that justice was not (and maybe could never be) had, and that the position and responsibility of president and presidential pardon were severely cheapened as a result.
You failed to do the one thing that mattered, Biden, which was replace Garland and make sure that someone actually put Trump's ass behind bars as well as his enablers like Musk, Bannon, Miller, and so on. (Seriously, how was the stuff in Project 2025 not enough to hit people with fucking conspiracy, racketeering and sedition charges?) Instead you slow walked this shit and it's literally entirely your own fucking fault that we're in this mess. Especially your unwillingness to stick with your original promise of being a one-term President and allowing the Democrats to have an actual primary, instead once again snatching actual choice out of the hands of the people and anointing a new candidate instead. How many fucking times has that failed now, dipshit?
I got zero sympathy for this blithering bitching idiot. Go cry about your legacy more, chucklefuck. We're facing out of control fascism because you were a pussy and didn't want to "lOoK PoLiTiCaL."
Exactly, this.
But wait, there’s more…
Enabling a genocide- something all the candidates were going to do anyway- is deeply unpopular.
Supporting Israel at the expense of US citizens isn’t okay under any circumstances or leader. It is time to end this farce; the only folks who don’t listen are the ones being paid not to.
It was especially stupid because he was dealing with Netanyahu, who clearly was making decisions to make Biden look bad and enable Trump. As if Trump and Netanyahu aren't exactly the fuck alike, both total criminals looking for power to avoid paying for their criminal activities.
So, on top of enabling a fucking genocide, it was also crassly politically fucking stupid to try to be wheeling and dealing with a guy who once again clearly supported Trump and would fuck Biden over to get Trump a win. Biden is a fucking a buffoon.

Shut the fuck up, Biden. When the Supreme Court made a president a king, you had the chance to remove ALL of these traitors as an official presidential action and you still chose the high road.
So just enjoy your dementia in peace.

His presidency will be remembered not for what he did, which was mostly good, but for what he did not do. His legacy will be viewed similarly to Hoover's. Both were principled men who, when faced with a serious problem, could not find it in themselves to deal with it.
Dear god, Hoover was a monster and a criminal. He is known in particular for how unprincipled he was. From casually violating human rights at a national scale to targeting civil rights leaders, to blackmail and terrorism, he established the playbook that modern totalitarians like Trump continue to abuse today.
Using Hoover and Biden in the same breath, let alone calling a monster like Hoover “principled” is beyond the pale.
Edit: Ignore this rant. I was thinking J Edgar Hoover, notorious leader of the BOI/FBI, not former president Herbert Hoover who was absolutely a forgettable milquetoast president like Biden. Though Biden didn’t murder and tear-gas our own unemployed veterans, so he does have that going for him.

no you didn't, dumbass. we knew this was coming and you did nothing to prevent it.
Why didn't you aggressively pursue the criminal terrorist known as Taco when you could do something about it?

Fuck off, Joe. Nobody wants to listen to you anymore. Thanks again for giving us Trump 2.0 you senile, vain, self-centered piece of shit.
Joe clung to impotent “power” long enough to give Harris just 107 days to overthrow the most famous person in the world Donald Trump. Did not go well.
You had the SCOTUS authorization (presidents can't do crimes if it's "party of their duties") to arrest Trump and make him go away, but instead we now live in the Fascist States of America. The GOP are domestic terrorists, but her, at least you can die sun knowing you played by the rules. Go to hell old man.
Exactly this. He is the reason why the us is in the shape that it is today, and is the reason why it will continue to regress in the next foreseeable future.
Yes, the 6-3 conservative SCROTUS totally would have supported Biden having Trump arrested. Only Republicans can do whatever they want.
The Chad move was to arrest the SCOTUS as soon as the ruling came down.
So move faster than they can stop him. Trump has shown how effective disappearing people without due process can be. The Supreme Court can't resurrect the dead as far as I'm aware.
They said "arrested," not "killed." I agree that an assassination would have been a good way for Biden to sacrifice himself for his country.
Other events can follow an arrest.
It’s not like they could stop him…
"We determined Biden is not immune from prosecution for this act." Congress would impeach and easily pass it since Democrats don't worship him, Harris becomes president, Trump is convicted and no punishment happens, Trump is elected president.
Now, if he did something permanent like have him assassinated, that would have made the world a better place and could not have been reversed.

The genocide that he worked hard to not only fund but to also shield from both domestic dissent and international intervention seems to still be going strong. So Biden's work wasn't all for naught.
The American people want a failed reality host who puts on a Plain Folks act while despising the people who worship him. They want an end to education, Social Security, Medicare, and our national public spaces. They want women, LGBTQ, and nonwhites to be second-class citizens. They want violence and torture, because it's Strong.
This is the new America. You're not part of it, Joe.
