Joe Biden is now officially the 46th President of the United States of America

[FAST6191]

So I have not been paying attention.

Has the world, apparently prior to this a hellscape (with electricity, running water, ample food in the shops, and arguably one of the most peaceful times in history where people can get on getting on and pursue their own path in life), now if not sunshine and rainbows then with a clear path into it by dint of the changing tie colour on el presidente?

Or is it as ever just a bunch of old bastards bickering about how they are going to line their pockets whilst pretending to care/doing just enough [insert caring] (with varying qualities to their theatrical performance) to get elected next time?

Neither, though it's closer to the first one. Biden actually cares about getting the nation out of this mess. Trump only cares about himself, and that purified narcissism is WHY the mess Biden has to deal with is so massive compared to other nations.

Why are you attempting to insult Biden by calling him old man 80 million, the approximate number of votes he won that beat Trump and was more votes than any candidate in American history has received? Biden's popular vote count was also approximately 81 million, not 80 million.

Calling the loser candidate, Trump, "old man 74 million" is an insult that makes a lot more sense. "Old man can never win the popular vote" or "old man two scoops of impeachment" are better though, in my opinion.

Double Whammy, The Biggest Loser, Ebenezer Screwed, Covidiot, Moronavirus, Scandal-Man, Mar-Illegal, King Nothing, Insurrection Pills, Dunning-Clueless, Orange Julius, Humpty Trumpty, Ku Klux Klown, President Evil, MAGAlomaniac, Mini Mushroom...
I can do this all day!

You truly still believe politicians actually care and are not all desperately self serving?

Anyway I am not sure what the particular mess is and how it can be laid at the feet of the (not so very powerful) position of US president.

The mess is just how badly Trump botched the CoVid response, resulting in us being a lot worse off than we would have been if he didn't do things like POLITICIZE BASIC EASY SAFETY MEASURES.

 

[tabzer]

Lol, people cherry picking technicalities. Which one looks and and acts like a fossil?

What good is an impeachment? It seems to only verify the notion that Trump is against the swamp; fueling his narrative.

 

[Iamapirate]

Why are two impeachments more significant than the two acquittals?

But think of his businesses.

Because no other President has done just as much shit as Trump has to warrant two impeachments.
The double impeachments, or rather the existence of the acts that warranted them, are proof that Trump absolutely should not be in any position of power.
And the double acquittals? They're proof that the Republican party is majorly made up of utter cowards that would rather let a tyrant and insurrectionist run free to campaign again another day than ever admit they were wrong.

Trump is the swamp. If people are dumb enough to think he's the good guy out of all of this then there is no hope for them.

Presidents get acquitted whether they are innocent or guilty. So acquittal is irrelevant.

Trump is the worst president ever, he tried to steal the election.

It's like 50 people broke into a bank and were seen taking money, then each of them demanded that the other 49 people were on the jury to decide if they were guilty & then during the trial the defense said that you can't convict him as he's no longer in the bank.

The conspiracy theory of conspiracy theories. I don't have the inclination to say that you are wrong but there are people on this thread who would ridicule you, only if you said something like that about a democrat.

If Trump was a democrat, I'd loathe him with just as much vitriol for doing as much as he could to ruin our country for the sake of himself and himself only.
If Trump was a democrat, you'd probably turn on a pin and start hating him too.
Try bipartisan hatred, it's a lot more fun. People in your party are capable of doing stupid shit too! VERY capable!
On my side, you have people like Elizabeth Warren that bafflingly sided with the hedge funds and rich fuckers during the Stonks War, showing that they don't really have a grasp of who is and is not financially corrupt here.
On your side, you have literal neo-nazis, a House Rep that thinks the California wildfires were started by secret Jewish space-lasers and a former President that literally called all negative coverage of him "fake" and refused to admit his own election loss.

Remember when Trump was called a racist last january for halting travel from china to the US becuase of this weird new virus?

Remember? You probably called him racist then too.

Hmm, I wonder why anyone would call him racist... Maybe because his platform, from the start, was founded on racism and xenophobia?

You can go the other way as well. You can say the claims made against Trump are overblown and vindictive because Democrats were mad they lost the election of 16.

1. Even if you think Trump is bad, calling him the worst is asinine and just goes to show you know little about American history. Hell, Trump followed Obama who is arguably worse depending on your perspective, and Bush who is certainly worse.

2. Bringing up concerns regarding election integrity is stealing an election?

79 pages of Valwinz repeatedly shitposting "2k" without actually reading any of the responses and having to receive an informal warning before stopping.

 

[Iamapirate]

I'm starting to think Trump is the worst xenophobe/racist/fascist ever. Couldn't even get the wall done and couldn't coup the government he was already in control of!

It takes a certain kind of privilege to not see the need for civil and political action in order to solve systemic issues. Many of these politicians do actually care.

To make it clear that trying to overthrow the results of an election with false claims of voter fraud and instigating an armed insurrection are unacceptable behavior.

He literally told people to peacefully march to the Capitol.

Monster!
