mags posted:every president is the worst in history until the next one takes office I don't know that anyone after Bush has topped him, but I am sure someone will. Biden and Obama squandered massive opportunities (purposefully), but it's nothing like Bush. Trump at least destroyed the Bush family's political viability.

maybe partly upper-class neoliberals saying "the white working class" all the time who want to forget that the South isn't 100% white while they chuckle about leaving everyone there to die Didn't Matt Yglesias tweet data with vague right-wing implications when taken out of context without an explicit argument just a few days ago?

Gripweed posted:It's hard to see how Biden avoids going down in history as a much worse president than Trump Trump is gonna end up moving down the list of worst presidents as we get further from him, if only because of his rank incompetence at being bad. Like, no question he'd be up there with Buchanan and Johnson if he had any skill at all at abusing the office but right now he looks an awful lot like Grant, in that everyone around him was running penny ante scams only this time the president was too. Biden's position on the list depends a lot on what happens next. If he's part of a series of ineffectual presidents as the country slips further and further towards revolution, he's not gonna look particularly bad but if poo poo pops off way sooner, then he's gonna be up there with Buchanan in the "could have done something to stop it but didn't" group at the top.

Its hard to say how trump will look historically, but I feel like as time goes on and all the crimes are slowly revealed and compiled it will look pretty bad when considered on the whole. I mean I guess it depends on how you rank them but he's got to win the corruption list

you have to the right to remain silent. anything you say or do could be used as consent for additional medical bills. you have the right to have a lawyer explain to you how much money you owe. if you cannot afford a lawyer, just trust us, you owe a lot of fuckin money

lol we have a democrat party governor in KS. My town got our city council to pass an ordinance that says the local police department will not work with ICE. in response the KS legislature passed a bill saying that local municipalities can't do that and PDs have to work with ICE and also any local municipality that issues an ID will have to have it say "not valid for state ID". yesterday was the last day for her to veto it and lol nope she signed it https://www.ksnt.com/capitol-bureau/gov-kelly-veto-deadline-approaches-for-sanctuary-city-ban/ Kelly addressed the signing of the bill by saying that the U.S.’s “broken immigration system” cannot be fixed at the municipal level and will need a solution soon from Congress. “Kansans who rely on local government IDs to vote, such as veterans, the elderly, and people with disabilities will be adversely affected by this law,” Kelly said. “The Legislature needs to send me a trailer bill that ensures these folks can continue participating in our democracy.” vote!
