After much soul-searching, I've finally come to the decision that I must vote for Joe Biden as the only candidate capable of defeating fascism and preserving Democracy in November. I didn't want to do this, but I've been convinced that there's simply no alternative.
I'm afraid any write-in candidate is a vote for Trump. I don't like it, but that's just how our Democracy™ works
This is sad. I was looking forward to him dying one day before the election.
Synthesis: Biden still dying this year and Trump dying of COVID on Election Day
Yeah, he's still the oldest party nominee in US history and judging by his needing to use the military hospital experimental cocktail in 2020, his health probably isn't that great

LMAO
Didn't he just tell everyone that Coconut Lady was unqualified to be president?
Yeah, but it seemed like he misspoke. In the same sentence, he referred to her as VP Trump.
"What concerns do you have about Vice President Harris' ability to beat Donald Trump if she were at the top of the ticket?"
"Look, I wouldn't have picked Vice President Trump to be Vice President, but I think she's not qualified to be president, so let's start there. Number one."

That's what I keep hearing. He does slur the "but" a somewhat. He also might be saying "so"?
Yeah no, he definitely misspoke here, I doubt he would have roasted her like that in public on purpose. It's more likely he was trying to say "if". Hard to say what's going on his mashed potato brain, but that seems closer to his intent and other statements about her that he's made.
Calling her trump is definitely a mistake, given the context. But Biden ignores the actual question and clearly tells the reporter that she's not qualified and goes on to imply that only he is.
Biden is one of the worst people that ever lived. I don't know why people want so badly to believe otherwise.
I don't really get what you're saying. To take the quote at face value, it makes no sense. Setting aside the VP Trump gaff, you think he intentionally said he wouldn't have picked Harris as VP? So why did he? Especially if he believed she couldn't be a viable president, given his age? I'm not arguing Biden isn't a piece of shit - and I'm not sure what that has to do with anything I said. Especially considering him now endorsing her, to take this quote literally seems incredibly silly/bad faith.
I'm being trolled here. Occam's razor.
You think, in a quote where Biden was obviously already flustered, shitting the bed, misspeaking, and stuttering, that:
- Actually the parts that are convenient for your weird narrative, he wasn't misspeaking
- He chose this moment to tell the world actually he wouldn't have (or didn't, as you posit) pick her for VP, despite proudly bringing up that he picked the first black woman for VP whenever he has the opportunity
- He would publicly call his VP unfit to serve as president, despite now endorsing her immediately after dropping out of the race
- All in the face of multiple statements he and his campaign have made before and after this, which contradict this weird narrative you seem to believe
And not just that:
- If you infer one word where he was clearly slurring (which you already pointed out), it would clarify the meaning of what he's saying to something that would actually make sense for him to say: "Look, I wouldn't have picked Vice President Trump (sic) [Harris] to be Vice President, [if] I think she's not qualified to be president, so let's start there. Number one."
He says "I wouldn't have picked Vice President Trump to be Vice President if I think she's not qualified to be president."
He's saying he has confidence in Kamala because VP is first in line of succession. Genocide Joe has a melted brain but you're def reading this wrong.
dawg there are so many legitimate angles to attack Biden and Kamala but this is not one of them, he wasn't saying Kamala was unqualified
That's what he said. Or at least what he meant when he tried to say it.
I changed 'if I didn't think' -> 'if I think she's not', brain auto-corrected the phrasing. Meaning is still the same.
Although I don't think this is going to change the result (Trump is still going to win, USA will remain a stagnant imperialist country), it's going to be very fun watching the chaos unfold within the blue party.
It's not even clear if Kamala is actually going to be selected candidate. As entertainment, I love it.
