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.

Biden is getting low marks for his covid response. 

I do predict that inflation is going to be his undoing more than anything.  Historically in times of inflation Presidents and their party haven't faired well and have taken the brunt of the blame.

While people are quitting their jobs at yet another record level, I think some of us are feeling the sting of inflation.  I know I am.

The clarification was worth something because it was edited out. Allot!! 

I suppose he should get some credit for saying not all of the racists there were "very fine people", just some of the racists.

He didn't say any of the racist were good people. Like literally said they were not.

My bad for engaging in a change-of-subject fantasy "if it were Trump"..."but your side does it too"...scenario.   I know better.

As if Trumo needed any media manipulation to make himself look worst;)  He was an ahole long before he entered politics.  No one needs to manipulate anything...just let the camera record..no commentary needed.

He said there were fine people on both sides, one of the sides being racists.  There aren't non-racists who think it's important to honor General Lee, who led the Confederate Army against the United States for the sole purpose of defending the south's ability to own other people.  

He clarified that two groups of racists should be condemned, the neo-nazi's and white supremacists.  There were various other sorts of racists attending the unite-the-right rally as well.

I agree he is a a hole! However his words have been purposely distorted and interpreted falsely.  Several times.

Quote

Bob Kendrick, the president of the Negro League Baseball Museum in Kansas City, Missouri, told Newsweek what Biden said didn't bother him. "It's an honor, as we look at it, that the president has such an affinity for Satchel," Kendrick said. "We take absolutely no offense to what the president said. As a matter of fact, we applaud the president for continuing to be an advocate for this history."

Beto I think is the one person to take on Abbott in Texas.  Florida doesn't have such a candidate.  I think it will be an uphill battle since the economy is good in Texas and Democrats are presumed weak on their border stance.

Beto is taking a slam at Biden's border policy saying it's not enough.  Makes sense since the border is probably the #1 issue there.
