PresidentĀ Joe Biden on Saturday calledĀ Donald Trump āclearly unhingedā and claimed that āsomething snappedā in the former president after he lost the 2020 election.
āItās clear that ā¦ when he lost in 2020, something snapped in him,ā Biden told supporters in Seattle at a private fundraiser Saturday, according to reporters in the room.Ā āHeās not only obsessed with losing in 2020, heās clearly unhinged. Just listen to what heās telling people.ā
Even though Biden thinks the presumptive GOP presidential nominee is āunhinged,ā he said he believes the November election will be āclose.ā
āWe feel good about the state of the race, but we know the race is close,ā Biden said, pointing to recent polls.
Look, I get it. I want all aid to Israel cut off forever, and we should be supporting the removal of
BoboBibi and sharing evidence at the Hague. But the point is, with all this shit going on domestically, and the fascist, wholly undemocratic abandonment-of-founding-principles shit Cheeto Mussolini has been spouting, if the media (and social media) wasnāt so driven to keep us on a knifeās edge, this election should be polling at a blowout. Iām talking on the order of Mondale-Reagan blowout. Weāre sliding into Christian fascism, half the voting country is OK with it, and the furthest left contingent canāt see the forest for the trees.Agreed on cutting Israel aid completely. Whatās happening there is disgusting - 10s of billions of US taxpayer dollars spent on slaughtering innocent children in Gaza. Meanwhile, basic healthcare at home is virtually unaffordable for most Americans. Do you know that Israel has free nationalized healthcare for its citizens? Why donāt we have that?
Iāll have to disagree that half the voting country is ok with nationalist Christian ideology. The majority of Americans are actually quite progressive, and this has been proven time and again via polling. The problem is we have no representation - Biden does next to nothing to appeal to the left, instead choosing to always move further right in order to compromise with his Republican friends in Congress, resulting in abysmally low voter turnout. This shouldnāt surprise you, because we have a system of legalized bribery in the US where corporations buy politicians to ensure precisely those results.
Bidenās rhetoric is superior to Trumpās, but his actions leave so much to be desired. In fact, I think you will find that both Biden and Trump both act to protect the interests of American business above all else. This Hobsonās choice is what got us into this mess, and pretending that Bidenās abhorrent record is even remotely acceptable is not going to get us out of it.
