President Biden thread

Published

Wow.  No one has started such a thread yet?

After promising that most K-8 students would be in schools in the first 100 days,  apparently Joe is afraid to lead on this and has drastically scaled back that goal.

Instead, we're shooting for about half to go to school at least one day a week,  by the end of April.

You didn't say what you thought about this.  I looked at the linked info within your linked article.  FOX linked to another of their own bits of reporting rather than Bureau of Labor.  In that article it said this...

Interesting, eh?

I would agree that there is reason for optimism.  Of course, there has been for awhile, and it hasn't really planned out in many ways in regards to the economy.

Doesn't change that Biden continues to blow smoke up out behinds

That was not evidence for anything. Not liking what someone says doesn't mean they have a cognition deficit.  

I am glad that your type of thinking isn't used to diagnose dementia in the clinical setting. You'd have half your country diagnosed with dementia along with me. 

"Biden is too old"? That's the best you can do? Then you call "Trumpers" or whatever blindly brained washed. Mkay......... 

Trump's own words and behaviors are certainly evidence of his cognitive challenges.  You simply aren't familiar with the those statements and crazy behavior because of your media preferences (presumably). 

I'm not certain what you are trying to communicate with the remainder of your words as they don't seem related to the remarks you quoted.

Fox News is so stupid they don't even believe what they write anymore.  I guess this is why they didn't refer to their own previous article.

You either didn't read or were able to comprehend the articles.  

you're funny.   I think if Fox no longer believed what they wrote or didn't want anyone to see it, they probably aren't so stupid that they just wouldn't delete it.  Or, at least not put the link with other articles.

Is that the same as boldly and blatantly lying to the American public and if so, is this a new found concern because the previous president lied to you routinely and boldly about all manner of important and consequential topics? I don't recall you expressing concern about that pattern of unacceptable behavior before now.  In fact, I'm pretty sure that you voted for the well known and habitual liar for the presidency twice before discovering this aversion to the appearance of dishonesty or inconsistency on Biden's part.  

That all makes it very difficult to assign any real importance to your fixation on honesty right now.  Especially since the mantra of the current GOP revolves around election and social lies.

As does the current president, who has a long history of lying and dishonesty.

You voted for and continue to support him.  So, I guess we're on equal grounds on thst, aren't we?

Oh. Please enlighten me and free me of my propaganda.  

Where are these statements and crazy behaviors? Cite your source.  

You said Biden was old. That's your only criticism of him.

Yeah right. Biden could beat a baby and TMB would say, "you haven't determined the age of the baby ". Or I have failed to prove that it is a baby because I am blinded by my right wing conservative propaganda!. Then chastise me because the baby is older than one so that makes it a toddler. Complete with a link to a dictionary with the definition of baby and toddler. Oh and as long as the baby was white he wouldn't care. Eye roll.

Perhaps because all politicians lie one way or another. Trump couldn't have a BM without being attacked by democrats. Miss characterizing his words actions etc....... 

We are just holding Biden to the same standard that far lefties held for Trump. It's the precedent that was established by the left for Trump. Don't like it? Too bad. 

I wouldnt say much about Biden if it wasn't for the blatant hypocrisy.

They don't like Fox simply because they report things they do not like. They critique Biden and his administration.  We all know that is a no no for the far left. I mean just look at CNN. Still can't stop talking about Trump and avoiding any story that goes against their narrative.

The source is Trump.  Trump made the comment about China and his brain.  Trump bragged about his cognitive assessment.

When you make statements as if they are fact when the factuality of the statement has not been established with citation or agreement, the statements will be challenged.  It's unfortunate that you take that personally rather than simply establishing the fact or changing the statement or claim in an honest way.  

It's interesting that you mention babies and children in this context because conservatives often use incorrect, misleading and inflammatory words when speaking about abortion. Conservatives often conflate the terms baby and fetus in their messaging. This is an intentional tool in propaganda...misuse of words to manipulate emotional response.  

Your eye roll is noted.
