Current Affairs The Would Be Emperor Has No Clothes (aka POTUS 47)

[Walken]

When your enemy is prepared to and regularly does fight dirty, there is no other option but to face them where they hide.

Scum needs facing and destroying. The best of america have hidden from this for so long they don't even know what blue collar spit* work even looks like.

When you lose the majority, you cannot fill the gaps with the best off.

14 years of nightmare conservatism inbred scum conveyed the message loud and clear very recently here in the u.k.

Thankfully.

There's no return lap on a race to the bottom, even if you win the final destination defeats you

Someone has to own it. Dirty hands are dirty hands.

But this isn’t about fighting dirty. This is about nepotism and hypocrisy. It’s an act of incredible selfishness and reveals an awful lot about Biden’s character. It’s irresponsible politics like this that illustrates why the democrats are such a shitshow that allowed a complete gonad to get into power (again)with the consequences to be felt by us all.

If you’re in anyway left leaning in the states you are completely homeless right now. And that is a tragedy.

Are you serious?

This is a party that quite literally threw out a sitting Senator for making an off colour joke (Al Franken)

This is party that clutches its pearls over every single little detail that they cannot disavow transgender surgeries for illegal alien criminals lest it offend 0.00005% of the population.

And regarding the Hunter Biden thing, I mean the penalty vs the crime together with the context it was quite literally politically motivated - no, I see no problem at all with it honestly

Something about bringing knives to a gunfight in a post Trump world I'd think Evertonians would understand

Feels like dems have lost any moral high ground on the issue

Where is the moral high ground in the politics of the United States?

Hunter Biden's prosecution was purely politically motivated. Everyone in Washington knows this. Why else would GOP politicians force the DOJ to drop a plea deal agreed with Hunter Biden's attorneys?

Democrats whose undies are all in a twist about how this "looks" seem to be forgetting acceptance of this crap means family members of politicians are now legitimate targets not only in campaigns but also in court via prosecutors willing to serve politicians rather than public interest.

If purchasing handguns/rifles/shotguns while being a regular weed smoker was prosecuted in Texas, the stock value of the for-profit jail companies would be rising even faster than they are right now.

Also, the GOP clowns who defend a guy who literally stole national security documents and refused to return them now complaining about Hunter Biden being forgiven for tax evasion... I wonder how they will vote on the nomination of Charles Kushner for Ambassador to France?

Kabuki theater.

 

[TN Toffee]

Nope - more revisionist history mate

I was in the category of there were no other realistic options given the late time Biden stepped down. And she did as well as she could all things considered.

And what world do you live in that she couldn't bribe people for $50K? People freaked out about $3.99 eggs

What's the matter with you?

And then rolled into the shops last Friday to spend money at record highs on TVs and toys. It's almost like it was never about the eggs.

I hear what you are saying, it just feels like giving them a stick they use to beat us (you).

I understand.

Let 'em cry. They'll do it anyway. It's what they are truly good at.

So true!

 

[Pittsburgh Footy]

I hear what you are saying, it just feels like giving them a stick they use to beat us (you).

They use the mere fact of acknowledging white people's part to play in slavery in the 1800s South as a stick to beat us with. They use trying to feed their kids healthy food at school as a stick. They use trying to make sure billionaires, a figure most people below the poverty line can't even begin to fathom how much that is, pay their fair share of taxes as a stick to beat us with.

Plus literally countless other examples.

They use everything as a stick.

So no, I'm not clutching pearls over this one

Very much so enjoying throwing it in all of the Canadian Tory's faces that their big hero Trump wants to annex our country because he doesn't understand how tariffs work.

Idiots, of course he doesn't respect Canada.

Maybe the people throwing money at black friday deals aren't the same people struggling to afford groceries?

That overlap is more than you’d think

It’s almost like it’s not about the price of groceries

Possibly. But I see a lot of the same people complaining about the economy and price groceries riding around in $60-$70k gas guzzling pickup trucks. So maybe the economy isn’t nearly as bad as everyone would have us think.

The president-elect's lawyers have asked a New York court to dismiss the case, in which he was found guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records to commit election fraud.

The first split-second it was announced that Biden was giving his son a presidential pardon, you already knew at that this was going to a foregone certainty.

Dude the hush money case was over (in any real substantive sense) the second he was elected POTUS

As with all other litigation against him
