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.

As an informed person with a vested interest in this country I do pay attention to him and actively want to hear him whether I'm his base or not.  This certainly does't mean I believe anything or agree with anything, but count me in.  Like I said he has a huge following and a huge influence.  We saw this in his call to arms in Washington so yes I'm as they say "staying woke".

No, I'm not ignoring him and no I'm not going to speak out against him.  

Of course I allow you to do you and respect that.

She's on Fox News stroking fears that Biden wants to release criminal from jail.

Was it stoking doubt when Harris said she would take the vaccine if Trump puts it out? Well the vaccine is from Trump admin.

Not sure what point this totally unrelated deflection from the topic is making. 

 But no, Harris was expressing confidence in the vaccine.  We've discussed several times in this thread that the vaccine was the Trump administration's accomplishment.  Biden himself praised the Trump administration when he received the vaccine.

With polls saying the strongest resistance to the vaccine is Republican men at 49% saying they won't get it, Fauci is calling on Trump for encouragement.  I've said before the vaccine could have been Trump's crowning achievement and legacy but he focused on combating his loss instead.

Sorry an ex doesn't have to leave town to please you. They have the right to exist and speak. Even people you don't like have rights.

Based on the name you chose, I imagine that you are all in for Modi and what he's encouraging against the Muslims etc? How about the Kashmir? What next, China and Pakistan alliance?

The country and our republic are Trump's targets.  We don't ignore threats to our republic. Despots don't retire quietly to the seaside. 

Regardless of the feelings of Trump supporters, Trump's incompetence, malfeasance and corruption are going to be highlighted for at least a year.  Everytime this country achieves something impossible under Trump it will be noted. Each time a Trump created obstacle is overcome, it will be noted.  Everytime a crime or example of amateur hour politics is uncovered, we're going to talk about it and contrast Trump to Biden.  

Remember when Trump himself blamed Obama for Trump's mismanagement of the pandemic stockpile...in 2020? It seems that Trump himself doesn't restrain himself the way you would have AN members restrain themselves.  That's interesting that there's higher standards for everyone one who is not Trump.

Move on?  We are still somewhere (middle, end, edge of 4th surge?) in a pandemic that Trump turned into a horror show.  One doesn't just move on from the malignancy he created or the fact that 74 million people voted against their own interests.  One doesn't move on from a man-made disaster of proportion that hasn't happened for 100 years.  Serious history is being created right now.  It's quite different from breaking up with your boyfriend when you are 13.

The vaccine is not from the Nazi buffoons of the Trump Administration.  The vaccine is from scientist.  In fact, the CDC had to erase all stupid remarks and comments listed on their website due to interference from the Trump Administration so they could go back to sounding like scientist and not fools.

No, in order to prevent another January 6 and any other domestic act of terrorism from Trump supporters, we will be watching him and them!  Nazis and those who support policies and laws that cause inequality for black, brown, and indigenous people cannot be allowed to rise again.

“Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.”

Your comment speaks volumes about your real agenda here.

Nazis?  Really?  You've used this term in two consecutive posts.  In the first, when you referred to members of Mr. Trumps cabinet, I think it's clear who you're referring to.  However, in your second post you refer to "those  who support policies and laws that cause inequality for black, brown, and indigenous people..." 

Who exactly are you referring to here?

Who are the people passing state legislation to limit voting opportunity or access? Who are the people that insist that it was antifa and BLM dressed up like Trump supporters at the capitol on January 6? Who continues to insist that there is truth to the lie that fraud played some alarming role in the 2020 election? 

Those people are promoting an American brand of fascism.
