    You had the SCOTUS authorization (presidents can’t do crimes if it’s “party of their duties”) to arrest Trump and make him go away, but instead we now live in the Fascist States of America. The GOP are domestic terrorists, but her, at least you can die sun knowing you played by the rules. Go to hell old man.

    The genocide that he worked hard to not only fund but to also shield from both domestic dissent and international intervention seems to still be going strong. So Biden’s work wasn’t all for naught.

    Holy fuck the ass cancer cannot take this guy from the earth quick enough.

    Maybe you should have worked harder. idiot. Shit got busted overnight so that work was, as we in the biz say, a shit job. Never forget the Democrats witheld a primary because this corpse was their guy. Never forget when this corpse was lugged out of the race Kamala did diddly squat to distance herself from the corpse’s policies. Hell she even adopted some of her opponent’s policies (no tax on tips anyone?). Don’t ever forget how bernie and aoc lied as well telling us this corpse was cognizant to make a ceasfire, when no talks lf that were happening at all. What about the new reports of the biden administration down playing the east palestine ohio train chemical crash? That happened like soon after the rail strikes got crushed by none other than the corpse himself. Remember though he was the most pro union corpse the oval office has seen!

    FORGET ABOUT EVERYTHING I SAID, REMEMBER THE CRUMBS HE GAVE YOU. THOSE TASTY, TASTY CRUMBS.

    May he have a painful death.

      He should have had all those traitors rounded up on Day One, and held at Guantanamo for their roles on Jan 6, and as National Security threats in general.

      Instead, he appointed the weakest Republican in existence as AG, who dithered and slow-walked the investigation, and gave the MAGA traitors a 2 year head start on the election.

      The Democrats are as responsible and complicit in the MAGA rise to power as the Republicans themselves.

    You failed to do the one thing that mattered, Biden, which was replace Garland and make sure that someone actually put Trump’s ass behind bars as well as his enablers like Musk, Bannon, Miller, and so on. (Seriously, how was the stuff in Project 2025 not enough to hit people with fucking conspiracy, racketeering and sedition charges?) Instead you slow walked this shit and it’s literally entirely your own fucking fault that we’re in this mess. Especially your unwillingness to stick with your original promise of being a one-term President and allowing the Democrats to have an actual primary, instead once again snatching actual choice out of the hands of the people and anointing a new candidate instead. How many fucking times has that failed now, dipshit?

    I got zero sympathy for this blithering bitching idiot. Go cry about your legacy more, chucklefuck. We’re facing out of control fascism because you were a pussy and didn’t want to “lOoK PoLiTiCaL.”

      how was the stuff in Project 2025 not enough to hit people with fucking conspiracy, racketeering and sedition charges

      Genuine question— Conspiracy generally involves an agreement between two or more people to commit an unlawful act. The “unlawful act” being key, what unlawful act is there to charge someone with conspiracy regarding the policy changes in Project 2025?

      On the other hand, once the SCOTUS basically made the President king so long as they did it in the interest of the country, Biden should have just put all of them in jail, but that’s beside the point.

      Exactly, this.

      Enabling a genocide- something all the candidates were going to do anyway- is deeply unpopular.

      Supporting Israel at the expense of US citizens isn’t okay under any circumstances or leader. It is time to end this farce; the only folks who don’t listen are the ones being paid not to.

        It was especially stupid because he was dealing with Netanyahu, who clearly was making decisions to make Biden look bad and enable Trump. As if Trump and Netanyahu aren’t exactly the fuck alike, both total criminals looking for power to avoid paying for their criminal activities.

        So, on top of enabling a fucking genocide, it was also crassly politically fucking stupid to try to be wheeling and dealing with a guy who once again clearly supported Trump and would fuck Biden over to get Trump a win. Biden is a fucking a buffoon.

    His presidency will be remembered not for what he did, which was mostly good, but for what he did not do. His legacy will be viewed similarly to Hoover’s. Both were principled men who, when faced with a serious problem, could not find it in themselves to deal with it.

      Dear god, Hoover was a monster and a criminal. He is known in particular for how unprincipled he was. From casually violating human rights at a national scale to targeting civil rights leaders, to blackmail and terrorism, he established the playbook that modern totalitarians like Trump continue to abuse today.

      Using Hoover and Biden in the same breath, let alone calling a monster like Hoover “principled” is beyond the pale.

      Edit: Ignore this rant. I was thinking J Edgar Hoover, notorious leader of the BOI/FBI, not former president Herbert Hoover who was absolutely a forgettable milquetoast president like Biden. Though Biden didn’t murder and tear-gas our own unemployed veterans, so he does have that going for him.

            Perhaps principled wasn’t the best term I could have used. It was meant in terms of their philosophy of the role of government. There’s no question that Herbert Hoover prioritized that over helping people.

          Maybe so, but Biden had two opportunities.

          1. Get rid of Merrick Garland.

          2. Use the SCOTUS’s ruling of presidential immunity against Trump and them.

          He failed when it really mattered. Twice. No sympathy.

          It’s like saying, we played a great game against the 49ers but 1 minute left in the 4th quarter, we chose to do a field goal to tie the score instead of going for a Hail Mary and the kick missed.

            He also failed to step down when faced with compelling evidence that he would lose to Trump. If we had an honest primary, I don’t think we’d be in this mess. Instead, he held on to power up until the last minute and the Democratic constituency yet again got a candidate they didn’t want.

                This isn’t about moral high ground this is about the majority of Americans deciding this is what they want their country to look like or not caring enough to vote.

                  not caring enough to vote.

                  Due in no small part to the jackass you’re defending and people like him in the DNC showing that they weren’t actually interested in anything but their own power and money, even if it meant squandering the opportunity to prevent this very outcome. The same politicians who have proven these people right by putting up no real resistance as they rubber stamped Trump’s cabinet picks and policy decisions in Congress, only to wring their hands on TV about how dangerous it is and text me asking for another donation so they could sit on their hands some more.

                  Get serious.

                  If you’re going to speak in broad strokes about the majority, it’s important to get right that the majority of votes went against Trump. He only has the support of the largest single minority bloc of voters.

          Voter shaming. Voter blaming. Not the party who didn’t even hold a primary after Biden dropped out far too late. Not the party who said “nothing will fundamentally change” and ran on “but Trump”

            Yes I’m shaming the people who voted Trump in again knowing full well what he was doing and also the ones who helped convince people not to vote because of relentless anti-DNC propaganda.

              So then it’ll happen again if you don’t hold the actual party whose job it was to EARN enough votes. Congrats.

                  You should tell these people that they should deal with those things for decades to come because you prefer to have the moral high ground over winning over the voter base your party lost. I’m sure they would be happy to lick the Democrats boots along with you if you tell them that. Go on.
