HOOOOWWWW does this asshole still not have a single issue or policy listed on his campaign website?! Like, not even anything about first term accomplishments. Not even some vague building back better bullshit. Not even anything promoting his own fucking party which he's the leader of. It's ridiculous.

Meanwhile Trump's website has a full spread, including a "mission" page and two types of issues pages, plus a "news" page where some of the "stories" are just dunks on Brandon.

Wait, they are? I thought the camera people were the bad guys lol. Always viewed the skibidi toilets like an insurgency fighting a repressive surveillance state backed by an evil empire. Full disclosure: haven’t watched any vids since last fall so maybe there’s something I missed.

This is what I told myself. Either that or someone in the graphics department is (rightfully) pissed off.

There are too many people on that sub who are waaaay too old to be watching The Daily Show in 2024. If they're making excuses about Obama's supermajority, they are ancient. Literal baby brains.

This followed up by an unironic "that Biden isn't Trump is the only reason I need to vote for Biden!" is just so chefs-kiss

The number of people I've already seen (and have seen in the last 4-5 years) do the whole "I'm 20-something and don't remember everything about what happened last week, duh-hyuk" bit is hilariously sad. Like on top of making excuses for the rancid milk inside your genocidal cult leader's brain, isn't it a little embarrassing to be this proud of having barely any recollection of your life or the events that happen in it? Isn't that a damning indictment of how overworked and overstimulated you are, or how life under capitalism has fried your brain and erased all meaningful connections to yourself and others? I also can't help but wonder if there's some collective Covid-related memory loss going on with all of this.

Not saying everyone ought to have an encyclopedic knowledge of their entire lives or would under socialism, but sheesh this "tee hee I don't even remember the date of my own father's passing" shit is rather sad.

I got this today as well. Didn't know I was still getting Bernie emails. The subject was eyeroll-inducing, but I had to stop at the bit about Trump being the worst president in history. Left a pretty vicious message when unsubscribing and ended it with a cute little john-brown quote for good measure.

My god what a disappointment. To think I lost sleep after Super Tuesday in 2020 over this fool sadness-abysmal

The response should be that they’re lucky they’re making it out with only their cash flow destroyed mao-aggro-shining

maybe-later-kiddo No. What you tankies don't ever say (probably because you're working for Putin) is that Biden and Pete worked quietly behind the scenes to get the unions what they wanted but without ruining Christmas with their mean-spirited strike designed to hurt Democrats in the midterms.


… is usually the first reply to that point and it's like nails on a chalkboard. Digging a little deeper into it reveals that this was not the case shocked-pikachu.

Everyone went back to brunch once the IBEW—a union that represents ~5% of the industry and doesn't even represent the train crews whose rank-and-file were intent on striking—did a press release praising Biden for a measly 4 sick days (that were watered down from the 14 the unions were initially striking for or the 7 in the PEB-sponsored agreement) and didn't address the insane precision rail scheduling and draconian attendance policies imposed by the freight carriers, nor is the new policy universal across all unions. It infuriates me to no end that the gaslighting operation was once again successful, just like with Covid/Covid checks and the infrastructure bill switcharoo. People believe that these things were well-managed by Brandon and the Dems and it drives me nuts. Like, these motherfuckers stripped workers of one of the central tools they have to fight for better conditions without breaking a sweat, then stuck them with a joke of a deal and proceeded to pat themselves on the back (amidst a catastrophic rail disaster, no less!). It's truly a sickening country.
