Joe Biden, Senator from Citibank (oops, DELAWARE), to Run for President

Skip impeachment, hit him with the heart attack gun they built in case of President Bernie.

milo you've posted your biden hatred hundreds of times on this thread, but barely participated in the trump c/d thread. i'm curious why you'd devote so much more energy to biden

I also haven’t spent much time criticizing the internal politics of Turkmenistan. Clearly I’m a Turkmen agent.

It’s 8:41 here in Moscow, I hope you’re having a nice evening.

deflection

lol

joe biden goe on joe budden

I have kompromat on Joe Biden (his public statements from 1974-2008)

I say this as someone who spends a lot of energy "hating" Trump and wishes he didn't, but....

What's the point? Trump and his ilk are never going to change. He doesn't purport to share your values or speak for you.

It seems logical that energy is better spent taking to task the people who *do* purport to share your values and are misrepresenting them

otherwise you're left with nothing

also I go out of my way to never hear Trump’s voice, he’s a monstrous piece of shit. It’s hard to make fun of someone without seeing or hearing the raw material.

the idea is that only the people who already mostly agree with you can be bludgeoned into completely agreeing with you

the people you really disagree with think you're a worthless piece of shit and aren't paying attention to you so you might as well argue with people who still agree with you on a few things and see if you can alienate them too

better just not to criticize anyone for fear of alienating their fans

i think milo is fine fwiw + is expressing a perspective that has been around on these boards for as long as i've been posting; attacking mainstream democratic politicians from the left and threatening to / actually voting third party is part of ilx's cultural heritage.

Hi! So what's new since 11:35 a.m.?

It’s only 11:17 am here

The vodka ist flowing, comrades

I'm reassured we all hate Joe Biden.

this ain't the Joe Abidin' thread

Biden's attempting to pivot from the primary message of "Fuck you. Go vote for someone else," to the general election message of "If you don't like it vote for Trump, assholes."

milo, your thread is too long

Trump and Biden, in unison, at the first presidential Zoom debate: "What do you have to lose- ...!... JINX! 1-2-3-4-56789tenyouowemeacoke!!!! ahhahaa!"

Maybe it’s good that Biden is comfortable saying un-PC things as it signals he isn’t part of the scolding, educated, coastal liberal class. It is this population voters really hate, and not just white voters.

Being “out of touch” is probably good in a country where everyone, for different reasons, seems to despise the zeitgeist. That’s almost his whole thing, a “return to normalcy.”

I think his nomination is a tragedy for many reasons but I don’t think this kind of thing will sink him.

Dear White People; Gonna need y'all to sit this one out. Black folks who have been black for long enough can identify the difference between an awkward ally and a virulent racist. We good.

Gosh, that settles that then.

putting side the "ain't black" words, the problem is he responded to a black man's concerns about his community—the last chunk of the interview was asking him about his involvement w/ mandatory minimum sentencing in the 80s—by saying "if you can't tell the difference btw me and Trump..."

which is patronizing and condecending, and Charlemagne shouldn't have had to say in response to that "it has nothing to do w/ Trump, it's something to do w/ what I want for my community" but hey that's what goes on itt all day long

Biden-Harris 2020 "Take It Or Leave It"

You got to have some f*cking nerve to say that shit with a whole smile on your face like you just hit a clutch shot at the buzzer.#YouAintBlack

tbf Biden's explanation for how mandatory minimum sentencing came about was a good one and I hadn't heard it explained that way b4

I vote and I like us a lot

As a rootless cosmopolitan coastal elite latte sipping Goddamn Jew liberal I don’t particularly care about what the supposed un-PC majority thinks of me!

none of us would be elected president

lol every day i read the threads here and think 'thank g-d these ppl aren't in charge"

middle-American and Southern and rust-belt voters don't think of me at all, let alone think anything about me, but I think they should all have health care, housing, transport infrastructure and access to multiple sources of free press

but not guns, nor billionaires to stan

fuck your freedoms, I guess

lol every day i read the threads here and think 'thank g-d these ppl aren't in charge"

yeah, things are much better with the guys we have now

mods, how many flagged posts does Trump have?

NEW: Former VP Joe Biden just dialed into a U.S. Black Chamber call and addressed his remarks to Charlamagne tha God. Biden said, "I shouldn't have been such a wise guy. I shouldn't have been so cavalier...I have never, ever taken the African American community for granted."

— Yamiche Alcindor (@Yamiche) May 22, 2020

that's a good apology, to be honest. i'll bet this is a net plus for him.

I shouldn't have been such a wise guy/I shouldn't have been so cav-a-lieeeeeer

i'll bet this is a net plus for him

55d chess baby

I was not expecting the Tara Reade story to collapse as quickly as it has this week.

“I have never, ever taken the African American community for granted” O RLY

He gets in a good, reasoned, appropriately contrite statement but he just can’t end it there. He has to throw in this self-serving bullshit at the end. He can’t help himself.

Narcissists gonna narciss, I guess
