    Guys…

    Biden isn’t that bad…

    Remember that time, a year ago, that he did a photo op?

        Biden is a right-leaning, corporate Democrat. A photo op doesn’t change that. Remember when trump held a bible in front of a church?

          After tear gassing the clergy who were hanging out water to protesters to get them out of the way? Yes we all remember that very equivalent situation.

        I think you are right, especially how it frames the stark contrast the Biden we have now versus the Biden we had a year ago.

        Biden a year ago: energized, out in the streets, able to take a mic and at least passably speak, on the right side of historical things.

        Biden today: can’t remember what the topic of a sentence is by the time he gets to the end, on the wrong side of history.

        What a difference a year makes. But thats sun-setting for the elderly members of the human species. We had a geriatric grandparent who, I shit you not, was still felling cedars and hand slabbing planks for benches 6 months before he died. Within 3 months he couldn’t remember his kids names, and required live in care. Then poof, he was gone. He went from full control and agency to literally barely knowing who he was in less than half a year.

    So… you can post anything related to politics here? If I were to post an article about George Bush vomiting on the Japanese PM, that would be appropriate content?

    This is why corporate democrats like Nancy Pelosi are telling him to step aside.

      This happened a year ago, and as a union tradesman, while I’d take Biden, or a rock with a face painted on it over trump, I’d rather not have an ancient dumbfounded old man representing my interests.

      He’s better than trump for our unions, but come on dude he’s barely fucking alive at this point.
