That stupid bastard really thinks he would’ve won.
Should’ve run in 2016, Joe. You would’ve won easily.
I remember thinking in high school that it was very genuine of the VP to congratulate Obama with a “This is a big fucking deal.” Amazing how time ravaged him since that day.
Biden has absolutely nobody to blame for him getting ousted but himself.
Dems told him he should not run for a second term, and he ignored them and did it anyway.
Then, he proves all his critics right by absolutely imploding during the debate.
What did he expect?
Time to fade away into obscurity. Thanks for letting your ego get in the way of what was best for America.
Dems told him he should not run for a second term, and he ignored them and did it anyway.
During his 2020 campaign he fucking said he only wanted to serve one term, that he wanted to act as a bridge president. Then he proceeded to do absolutely nothing to put Harris in front of the country, absolutely nothing to set her up for an ezpz “incumbent” primary, and removed blocked the entire fucking country until the last minute.
I don’t know if he lied to our faces, changed his mind, or just forgot but fuck him regardless.
Edit - His only fucking job was to win in 2020, then unchain the AG or whoever to bring cases against every single person who used the Constitution as a cum rag as fast as realistically possible. He failed. He won the election in 2020, then just didn’t finish the fucking job. Fucking pathetic joke of an out of touch old.
During his 2020 campaign he fucking said he only wanted to serve one term,
Can you actually find him saying this, or is it only people on background who wouldn’t allow their name to be printed next to the statement that said this and people’s brains morphed it into an official campaign promise because they wanted it to be the truth so badly?
If he’s bitter, just imagine how the rest of us feel, watching him disappoint us as we expected he would but hoped he wouldn’t.
Fuck this guy. Shouldn’t have been there in the first place. Now, to a large extent because of his decisions, we all have to suffer through the rule of the dumbest, most bigoted and greedy assholes ever.
But not angry enough to do anything helpful.
I’ll never forgive him for not pardoning Mangione.
Or Snowden.
But don’t worry, Hunter Biden is free to smoke crack without worry once again!
He fumbled his chance by historical margins when everybody was already scrutinizing his capabilities. There was no recovering from the debate. His legacy will be refusing to accept reality and bringing about an era that my generation may never recover from.
He should have announced he was going to be a 1 term president a year prior and gave a chance to find a better Democrat candidate. He’s senile and hardly able to run the country. No one over 70 should be president. No one over 70 should be in any office or judicial position. Our country shouldn’t be ran by the nearly dead. Even 8f some of them like Sanders are great.
He announced he was going to be a one term president when he was running for that first term. (I know a campaign promise isn’t an announcement, but it was supposed to be common knowledge before he changed his mind.)
That’s not really true, unless you can find better sources for it than I found.
That article quotes Biden staffers who are attributing quotes to him. I must have misremembered him stating as much directly, idk. Fuck him either way.
It says in the article that he was directly asked about going single term and he told the interviewer he wasn’t going to commit to being a single term president. “Misremembering” is just weak speak for being wrong.
The reality is his personal mental acumen is very, very irrelevant if he’s surrounded himself with trusted advisors who are competent. That being said, you can’t show up to a debate and look like you’re 200 years old and have no idea what planet you’re on.

That might be the case if he had surrounded himself with competent advisors.
The US’s only chance at starting to get better will have to have a leader and not a puppet. Being surrounded with politicians in your trust will keep things running, but just keep pumping out more of the same shit we have had.
What does this say about Biden’s faith in Harris? I always kind of doubted that he actually wanted Harris, and suspected Harris was kind of foisted upon him. If he really believed in her as a person and/or politician, why would he be sitting here pouting and saying that he should’ve run instead? The whole camaraderie between them always felt kinda shallow and forced, and this really sends that feeling for me.
Gonna be honest, considering how much of a Zionist Biden is, I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s just a racist and a sexist as well. He might seriously think the problem is that she was a black woman, and that he could have won because he’s a white male.
You shouldn’t have run for a second term, old man!
IMO he was weak the first time, too. Center-right Democrats are plague on the country.
Yep. They had to kneecap Bernie to make Biden a possibility. “If you don’t vote Biden, you ain’t Black.” Wtf was that shit?!
Piece of shit found out that what the party can grant him, they can take away. Unfortunately for all of us, the party acted too late in ousting his decrepit genocide-loving ass.
You still woulda lost, Joe. Dumb American voters wanted someone to blame for groceries costing more, and that blame went to you.
I originally read that as “genocide costing more” and was like “how true”
Sadly, most Americans don’t care about what happens to other people.
Teamsters went for trump after dems bailed out their retirement pensions. Americans don’t even care what happens to them, they just want to feel like they’re strong and powerful manly men.
“Being forced out” is a funny way to spell “losing the election”.
He didn’t lose an election though…
He didn’t? How would you describe what happened?
There was a primary election (without any serious challengers) that Biden won. He was pressured to step out of the race after the fact, and he endorsed Harris to run in his stead.
I never stopped feeling angry that such an epic moron was elected president and used it to enable a genocide.
I’m so weary of this genocide narrative.
Yes, the situation in Pallestine is terrible. Yes, it seems like Biden enabled it.
The thing is, there’s so much more at stake here. Did you see the part people are doing Nazi Salutes now? Or any of the executive orders signed in the last 24 hours?
Things are getting so much worse.

Nonsense.
Anyone that cared about the plight of Palestinians voted democrat, because the dems would have delivered a dramatically better outcome than what is going to happen now.
They’ve had over a year to deliver a dramatically better outcome. I voted democrat straight down the ticket like I always do, but I’m not going to delude myself into thinking they were actually going to produce a better outcome because biden refused to apply any pressure on israel and instead only sent billions of dollars of weapons in support. Harris was looking to continue the same policy. It should be a very easy win to denounce genocide, but they couldn’t even do that during an election when they needed the votes. Why would they change policy after winning when they didn’t need the votes?
Again, this take is just nonsensical. It’s illogical.
Natanyahu is going to grind Palestinians into the dust with Trump’s backing. Palestinians would be better off with Harris as POTUS.
Yet you’re trying to assert that Harris lost because she didn’t win the votes of people who care about the plight of Palestinians? That’s an absurdity.
I can only agree. The Democrats are just as bound to the funding of the billionaires as the Republicans, they just have to hide it better in order to have a chance to win something.
The Roman Empire fell slowly, and now it’s our turn. I only hope that true socialism can emerge from the ashes.
Stop the fucking fatalistic nonsense. Doomerism only fucking enables evil to continue to operate - GO AND DO THINGS.
I disagree.
It’s important to pick your battles. Control what you can control and practice acceptance for the rest. If you get worked up about every little thing in the coming months you’ll just get burned out.
Trump is signaling the go ahead to dick down the West Bank like they’ve already done in Gaza by removing sanctions against the most violent Israeli settlers, sanctions that were enacted by Biden. So idk who the epic moron here is.
So idk who the epic moron here is.
Someone who thought “the other guy is more genocidal” was a winning message.
This is the most incredibly selfish thing I could possibly imagine. An old man moping about his inability to cling to power for another minute. As the next generations look on, begging for someone to act.
He paints Trump as a villain (rightfully so) but is so pathetic that he is unable to rise to any heroism. At least go out swinging.
Don’t know what I expected. But it is a slap in the fucking face to hear this.
