      The extreme racist that spent a career killing brown kids and deciding which brown kids to kill, and the extreme racist imperialist billionaire?

      If you dislike Trump but don’t dislike Clinton, you’re actively in a cult.

          You’re right, Trump has done no where near the amount of damage that the Clinton dtnasty has. I mean NAFTA alone ruined tens of millions of Americans lives and it’s effects can still be felt in the dying towns across the US.

              I’m sorry you’ve never been poor and never have known a blue collar worker. Hopefully you get out your privileged little tower soon and meet people. They’ll be more than happy to tell you why NAFTA encouraging off shoring of a lot of good paying jobs ruined their parents’ and their neighbors’ lives.

              It was quite literally the most economically devastating bit of legislation in the 90s and 00s

                Swing and a miss! I’ll give you a little hint, it’s not nafta to blame. It’s Reagan but nice try!

                  Reagan signed NAFTA into law allowing companies to get tax breaks for offshoring?

                  Weird. Usually you people deny neoliberalism as a concept since it reveals there’s no difference in the economic goals of either major party given they’re the same ideology.

    Biden had a fleeting moment when he pulled out of the presidential race when it looked like history would remember him kindly. But since then, he seems to have worked extra hard to be remembered as one of the worse POTUS in history.

    Clearly the man is on his way out and just doesn’t give two fucks anymore. He does any indecent thing without any sort of restraint. It¨s really quite remarkable.

      I’m not sure he is capable of making any decisions, he can’t even read a teleprompter any more.

        That’s a good point. It’s not really Biden, it’s the people behind him. He’s just the face

              That doesn’t make sense. The person backing the politician will just switch to another, and you’re back to square one.

                Only politicians run for office and are the ones we shouldn’t trust with the power. The solution is to minimize any power given to politicians.

            That’s a hard question and one I’m unqualified to answer.

            But requiring politicians to not be senile would be a good start.

    I honestly wonder if he’s trying to fuck over the dnc somehow. Surely no one wants to leave this kind of legacy in the last few days of their presidency.
