US Politics Thread

Seems like a straight up choice between a shit sandwich and shit on toast again from America.

Is Trump and Biden the best they can come up with? Really?

We have no room to talk, I know…
However bad you think Biden is, there still really is no decision to make for people who aren’t completely insane.

And Biden has actually done a great job but just comes across as a bit past it. I’d vote for a geriatric over a tyrant every fucking time.
 
Harris has been massively handicapped by needing to be in DC full time until November to be the deciding vote in the Senate.

Since then she's been doing a lot more vice-president-y stuff and if Dems continue to gain in 2024, I imagine they'll spend 4 years really pushing her to the front and making her more popular.
I can't understand how she has been deployed. She is obviously intelligent and has legal expertise, she should have been front and centre for Wade v Roe legislative debate. Have heard very little from her in that regard. A female VC, qualified legal expert during the debate on rights of women....

If you pay no attention to economics, social issues, political culture and generally have your head buried in your fucking rectum, that’s precisely how it seems. Everything seems like shit when your head is up your ass.

Tired fucking narrative. Biden is old — sometimes people belabo(u)r the obvious if it’s all they know — and far from perfect, and I disagree with him on several issues, but any balanced, rational person might conclude that being old isn’t disqualifying given where the U.S. economy is, how the midterms turned out, how he hasn’t fucked up foreign policy (esp. Ukraine) and how he’s attacking as best he can many more serious issues.

Oh — and considering who is opponent is likely to be.

Depressing isn't it? The democrats clearly don't trust Harris or rather they don't think the electorate do.
Looks like trump may be about to prove the old adage about there being no such thing as bad publicity.
Good luck getting your head out your ass btw ;-)
 
Biden has done an excellent job as POTUS. Is he old? Yes. Does he have trouble speaking due to a stutter he's had since childhood? Yes. But that doesn't discount what he's done in office. He rolled out the vaccine twice as fast as what he promised, he passed an infrastructure bill, we have a record low unemployment, inflation is coming down and he actually got a small piece of gun legislation through congress. The last guy gave a tax break to billionaires, oversaw a pandemic that his lies about caused hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths and became the first POTUS since the Great Depression to actually have a negative net gain on jobs.

I swear, people don't even understand what politics is anymore. It's not entertainment, it's not supposed to be exciting. The absolute best you can hope for is to never even hear from or about a politician because that means they're doing their job. Twitter wars, political stunts and soundbites on propaganda tv may get people's attention but they don't offer anything in the way of making things better for the masses.

Spot on
 
I refer you to my earlier response.

"Now I see. I hadn't seen him before but his persona isn't wildly different from many MAGA loons especially those interviewed at their rallies. Art imitates life it seems ;)"
It caught me out first time I watched him. He's very good at capturing the absolute essence of MAGA which makes it difficult at first glance to tell reality from parody.

This one is absolutely perfect:
