    I also like this one:

    “Just the other day a defeated-looking man came up to me and said, ‘Mr. President, I have crushing debt, and I’m completely wiped out,’” Biden said at a fundraiser. “And I had to look at him and say, ‘Donald, I’m sorry. I can’t help you.’”

          Is your back okay? Those mental gymnastics look hard for even someone half your age

            When you grow up you’ll realize mental gymnastics aren’t a physical action.

            Which part of my comment would you say is disingenuine?

              I’ll assume you understand metaphor/wordplay despite the jab.

              You place Trump in remotely the same category as the “poors” which is comical. Obviously Biden doesn’t make this joke about moms on WIC, etc., ie the real poors. You use more charged language like “millionaire president”, but when was the last president who wasnt wealthy? What is your point? You can’t place the Bidens’ wealth remotely near the true robber barons, but thats what you attempt to evoke.

              You have not presented facts, but rather used manipulative language endearing to Trump

                I’m saying it’s poor messaging by the dems. This is ammo for Fox News and the like.

                Not all criticism of the president is support for Trump.

                  Idk Biden making jibes and jokes makes him appear mentally with it which contrasts the fox news narrative. It’s not as mean spirited as Trump has been and even comes off as tongue in cheek IMO. I can see more positives than negatives, but I can also see it being spun by hacks, sure.

                  This particular joke was aimed at none other than Trump, so you saying this is Biden dunking on the poors does place you in a precarious position of calling Dolan a “poor” and defending him

                    I think these two ghouls are the worst America has to offer, one being a paid Zionist, the other an incompetent fascist.

      Biden has been paid over 5 million dollars since 1990 by pro Israel groups. That’s what you’re celebrating here. The rich politician who’s aiding a genocide making fun of being poor…

        that’s $150K a year over 30 years, and that’s aggregated from numerous groups. He’s raised something like 70 million in the last year alone. Is your point that the influence from “pro Israel” groups is statistical noise?

            But the numbers don’t add up. He’s probably being paid more money from people that want him to stop. I’m saying the money doesn’t seem to have any influence one way or the other.

              Well I brought receipts and you brought assumptions. Looks a lot like bribery from here.

              Also who the fuck are you? only $150,000 a year for 30 years??

                what receipts? You posted a number and no proof. I literally just did math on your comment.

                and 150K is one fifth of one percent (0.02%) of what the DNC raised the last quarter of 2023.

                If you’re trying to prove money==influence, you’ve successfully argued that no one is buying much of any influence with DNC for $150K a year.

                I’m not even arguing for or against your point, I’m just trying to point out that you’re providing evidence against the point you’re trying to make.
