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.

People can ignore the obvious and follow a conman, history is full of examples of that foolishness.  Trump is obviously incompetent as a chief executive but he's a compelling liar and conman.  I can't understand how people can ignore his lies and abuse of power and his unconstitutional attempts to retain lost power, but there are millions of people who believe things without evidence simply because they are repeated by Trump and his sychophants.  

Ironically, some of those same people are now trying to scare Biden's voters away from voting for Biden with commentary on mental fitness.  They forget that Trump has never been fit to serve in the presidency and he's less fit now. 

It seems many disagree with your assessment of Trump.  He's not going to win anyway, so why are you still trying to make him a topic of discussion?  Especially here in the Biden thread.

The Biden administration has been lying to us for awhile regarding Biden's fitness for office.   

Do you still believe "Cheap fakes"?  At this moment KJP is still talking about his jet lag and a cold.  Tell me, do you believe jet lag and a cold is what is responsible for his debate performance?

The way they are reacting leads me to believe they actually didn't know the state of Biden cognition. Must be their preferred media.

The first time around, what policies did Trump put in place that went against minorities, gays, or those with fertility problems?

Show me some evidence that climate change initiatives will reverse climate change?

3 Supreme Court justices who voted to overturn Roe, Muslim immigration ban, immigrants are murderers and rapists. 

I think we are past reversing climate change. Hopefully it's not too late  to slow it down so we can adapt. Raking the forest is not enough.

He said illegal migrants are murders and rapist. Some of them are also drug and child sex traffickers as well. The opporative word being "ILLEGAL" I'm sure it was a typo. 

At least you didn't say "called white supremist very fine people". Someone should have told Joe. Probably did but he forgot.

I asked what policies Trump enacted.  The closest you got was the "Muslim ban".  It was actually a travel ban.  Although the countries effected were of mostly Muslim citizens, those citizens represented about 10% of Muslims worldwide.  And, most of that 10% likely didn't have plans to travel to the US.  Also, the ban was for anyone, not just Muslims traveling from those countries.

I doubt when you made the comment about the white congressman that the Trump travel ban was what you had in mind.

I'll rephrase my climate change question.  What evidence is there that climate change initiatives will slow down climate change?

Of course, there are millions of people who believe all manner of untrue, almost delusional things about Trump and how successful he was as Chief Executive.  

I can evaluate the two men with my own eyes and ears.  The GOP has been lying to us about Trump since 2016 and the lies are getting more dangerous. Did you hear the interview with the president of the Heritage Foundation musing about revolution? 

Quote

"We are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be,” he added later.

Sure. Biden is old.  Jet lag and a URI can definitely affect performance for even younger people.  What is incredibly clear is that the ideology of Trumpism is a threat to our republic. Biden's opponent is the most corrupt and least successful president of your lifetime, he already tried to overthrow election results and he forwards un-American ideas.  The choice to vote for Biden is easy.

You don't know about Trump's policy to intentionally separate immigrant children from their families?  They belong to a minority group, yes?  Weren't transgender Americans banned from military service during Trump's administration and weren't employment discrimination laws weakened during Trump's watch?  Remember when Trump called racists fine people? 

Nah. I don't need to try to convince you that we need to take steps to mitigate a threat to the planet. You get to believe what you want in spite of the warnings and opinions and data from the scientists and experts.  Did you know that the average daily temperatures in Colorado have risen over 2° F over the past 40 years with the greatest rise occurring in the southwest portion of the state.  We all know that trend will likely lead to water and wildfire concerns.  We do know with confidence that doing nothing will be disastrous and costly for our grandchildren.  I guess that doesn't matter if the objective is to go back to some imagined magical time in our past...MAGA...

I guess that I don't know about the "state of Biden cognition" in exactly the same way you don't know that Trump is incompetent, corrupt and unfit for office.  Or, in the same way that you are unsure of the importance of the events of and surrounding 010621. I won't vote for a corrupt threat to our democracy because Biden is old. 

My preferred media includes much of what you consume, plus so much more.

Well, you can imagine all you want.  It may or may not be true.  

I myself find it concerning that any president would be closed off to everyone but a small group of people.

How would you know if anyone has or has not ever called him anything? 

 "Don't underestimate Joe's ability to f–k things up.”  -Barack Obama

We're already starting to learn just what some insiders have been keeping quiet about.  More to come, I'm sure.

 

What?  Trump was famous for getting to the office at 11 am and going to his TV room.   Whatever BO said has nothing to do with anything.  We are all capable of f-king things up...some worst than others.  Love your Hitler-lite and see where you are in 5 years.  Again I vote for my own interests and my money is doing fine.  It's just Trump that gives me agida.  Otherwise I have quite a charmed life which Biden hasn't interfered with at all.   So why would I vote for Caligula?

From Trump's speech in 2015 announcing run for president:

Quote

 When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best. They're not sending you. They're not sending you. They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.

No mention of immigration status, whether legal, visa, amnesty or otherwise.

Thank you for mansplaining what I had in mind regarding the congressman from Maine.

I don't think that treating illegal immigrants as criminals means that a Trump presidency is bad for minorities.

Same with your imagined travesties against transsexuals.  

That was quite an answer on climate change.  To summarize, no you don't have any evidence that climate change initiatives will stop climate change.
