Imagine only beating Trump by four points that is so pathetic lmao

Especially since dems have to win by about 5 to 7% to overcome the ec.

Hmm maybe they should run literally any other human being...

Everyone on the 2020 primary stage had identical policies to the point that the only thing that distinguished him from the-democrat was that he promised to cure cancer. Even if liberals are solely fixated on their final solution to Palestine, John Fetterman has 10% more brain and wears an Israeli flag like a toddler wears a security blanket. He'll get it done with twice the dead kids.

67% say too old, entirely separate from who they would vote for

wojak-nooo

Libs have somehow legitimately convinced themselves the media is being too harsh on Biden.

There is a new poll out everyday that puts one or the other 5 points ahead, it's not news.

Our country is the best and all you people from the global South are jealous; we're literally the embodiment of everything you've ever read in a dark fantasy novel:

A mad, decaying old ruler who can no longer tell good from evil (not that he could in the prime of his life), insanely enabling horrific genocide, surrounded by incompetent councils who are letting this old fool do it rather than just put him in an old folks' home. He even enables the continuation of a devasting war far to the East (between Russia and Ukraine) which has now claimed over a million lives total, and his councils are just watching while this mad king keeps the blood spilling. He will cease to be king when the next election rolls around, but in that short period he is squeezing every drop of blood he can from the Earth.

His competitor to the throne? A snake in human skin; a greasy smile, and the words of toddlers slipping from his lips to soothe the toddler-minded followers; no less a butcher, but not from madness, but for the enticing clink of coin. A fool running the country into the ground, but slithering away from under its carcass with its wealth.

No but seriously though, there's something deeply sickening about some old demented guy being in charge, who probably can't always tell you where he currently is, being allowed to make a horrifying genocide a reality. In the Soviet Union, when their radars went haywire and the guys at the top ordered the guys who had the power to do so to fire nukes, those guys said no and waited it out. There's no one here to veto or override this lunatic from sending more missiles to Israel when they're just emptying their stockpiles as fast as they can to turn as many Gazans into a sea of the dead and completed cities back into an empty desert. And when he inevitably loses this next election (or even if he doesn't lose, the next possible candidate in question)? The next guy, inevitably Trump, is just going to be an even more murderous psycho to help Israel do its genocide, if there's even a Gaza by then.

The guy is a demented psycho, just send him to an old folks' home already so he can whittle the days away with people playing peekaboo with the object permanence lacking dementia patient.

Mfw waiting for the thought to occur that maybe the system where the election's frontrunner is considered too old by a supermajority of voters isn't exactly listening to the will of the people chomsky-yes-honey

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago

He used to be a regular on MSNBC. I don't know if he still is. He's the worst kind of person. He's wrong about everything yet self-righteous too. His Gaza war takes are even worse than his dem/Biden cheerleading.

2016 went on and on for years. 2024 will be the same. The super lib is batshit on Biden's age. In this scenario he makes Biden into Hillary 2.0. Biden the wins the popular vote but loses the ec.

We're probably going to be looking at a situation in December where Biden wins by four percentage points but exit polls say he's too old so he should resign.
