More importantly, when the chips are down they have no problem at all completely defecating all over the concept of decorum and fair play and the will / wisdom of the people.

Then the next day they'll pretend nothing happened and those sacred cows must be protected even if that means overt fascists get what they want all the time.

A nonzero number of people died pushing Biden over the edge in what was from a certain point of view the most important primary election of their lives.

A friend on hard times just received notice of debt forgiveness!

It was just Biden stamping his name on top of the previous programs that discharge debt owed on 'junk diplomas' and after 2 decades of repayment. This was even a person who had GI Bill benefits and still had massive debt for a program they had to drop out of due to cost.

It's not hard to reconcile it. Trump isn't so much a political savant as it is the Democrats are incompetent garbage, who either cannot win or do not want to win. Anyone worth a drat could defeat Trump. Biden only did it in 2020 because Trump completely flamed out and told his supporters to drink bleach.


Telling your voters to drink bleach is kind of a low bar to set!

It’s an exaggeration to say that both parties chose literally the only guy who could lose to the other guy, but it’s not that far off the mark.

They’re both horrible, widely‐hated men who could be trounced by a hell of a lot of normal people, but the parties don’t let normal people near the levers of power.

Exploration is ill-advised.
The Democrats convinced themselves that people actually loved Obama's milquetoast nothing administration and forgot he only one with charisma, lies and pretending to care about real material problems. (and that Dems ate poo poo in the midterms because they bought into right wing framing of what he DID do, lol)

During 2020 you could see them actively destroying all their own standards as the party told them to, and I think it really did leave them with absolutely no ability to understand that other people can even have standards. They broke themselves for Biden, and they can't live with themselves if anyone else isn't willing to.

Meanwhile Trump knows that he's not going to run out of money, and I'm pretty sure correctly identified that the campaign apparatus consists almost entirely of and is for graft. The Dems crowing about how Trump and the RNC are broke is probably just galvanising right wingers into donating more.

trump campaigning for crowds of under 300 people is part of why hillary lost. also the bail thing is funny because its morons doing the “trump isnt rich” thing because he doesnt have half a billion liquid cash, rich people dont leave cash lying around lol.

I'd say that it demonstrates that the Presidency is irrelevant and that it doesn't really matter who holds it.

Except that the President of the United States genuinely has a lot of powers to do poo poo, when they actually decide to wield those powers.

So I guess it really demonstrates the terminal decline of the current political system? I mean, if there's 2 main rival parties in this system and they've both somehow contrived to put a senile old ghoul forward as candidate and there genuinely doesn't seem to be anyone more competent waiting in the wings who could be an alternative, what else can you conclude?

Yeah the Dem argument is that the magic wand exists but using it makes you a fascist. You see, they're doing us all a favor by not using it to do things that are overwhelmingly popular.

Republicans knowing the presidency is powerful and wields power effectively does not make the system broken. Joe Biden is intentionally doing nothing.
