The line Joe Biden used to put into nearly every big speech — “I’ve never been more optimistic about America’s future” — is a long way from what he says in private now.The line Joe Biden used to put into nearly every big speech — “I’ve never been more optimistic about America’s future” — is a long way from what he says in private now.
These days, multiple people who’ve spoken to him over the last year say, Biden often punctuates conversations with: “You think we can actually come back from this?”
The 83-year-old Biden continues to feel out a post-presidency that may prove to be one of the shortest in history and is already one of the most complicated.
There are days when Biden is heartbroken, indignant or in disbelief about what is happening as President Donald Trump — the man he defeated in 2020 — returned and moved not just to tear down his accomplishments, but to dig in with petty insults like the autopen photograph he put in Biden’s spot in the “Presidential Walk of Fame” installed at the White House.
I understand the world is a messy place with lots of shades of gray and that’s scary to people who want it to be in black and white and have it easy to tell what’s right and wrong as you do.
The question is relevant.
If you think its relevant you need to argue why.
If you’re refusing to answer it I won’t spend the time to continue this conversation with you.
This isn’t a train station fam. No need to announce your departure.
You and yours handed this country to fascism.
There was one path to stopping Trump: The candidate needed to change their policy on Gaza.
You advocated against that path. Trump is yours.
In another comment in this thread you just called me and I quote ‘a fascist and pro-genocide.’
There is not reason to continue this conversation with you until you can continue in a more civil fashion.
Lotta fucking responding for someone not continuing this conversation.
You are both a fascist and pro-genocide. You advocated for electoral strategies which conclusivly led to fascism. You spent the entirety of 2023/ 24 demanding Democratic voters support genocide. You’ll never escape from that.
