How is Biden "sleep walking" us straight into World War III? What would you do differently? I know what Trump would do differently. He would attempt to settle the matter by giving Russia Ukraine's territory which would only embolden Putin and fascist dictators around the world. No surprise since Trump envies them and has a similar vision for America.
It's hilarious because according to this MAGA, Biden is both an incompetent senile gaff machine while also incredibly corrupt and calculated.
Exactly... I wanted Bernie, but clearly that's not happening and we'd be better off with no president than having Trump in there abusing the power. I'd literally rather have an empty seat. Next to a wannabe fascist, a moderate establishment democrat looks good even to a progressive like myself.
Having such a low bar and barely getting over it isn't much of an accomplishment. My vote continues to go to Vermin Supreme! That man with a boot on his head and a promise of free ponies and dental.
I know how you feel. I have to manage those feelings myself, but it's important to realize at this point just keeping our democracy is the accomplishment. The damage a second Trump term would do is beyond imagination.
I have to be real with you on this one, but not really. It's a lot less hectic compared to Trump but the lack of action toward enforcing Constitutional rights under Biden hasn't convinced me that that it's any better. It's nice that Biden isn't actively threatening to violate my rights as a trans person but it's not nice that he mostly provides empty platitudes when states start actively pushing to violate my Constitutional rights. It's very much apparent that he's continuing the same kind of slide of hand that Bush did with same-sex marriage. That is, allowing social issues to drag out to the most extreme levels instead of actively pushing toward using Constitutional law to protect people. Which has always been done to district people the real issues, like the potential World War. Equally, I don't consider a return to the status quo as being any form of an upgrade from a madman. Trump was terrible and his legacy is going to be terrible but the return to the status quo has only shown me that as a minority, I am fucked regardless of who's in office. Which is why I gave up and decided my vote would forever belong to Vermin Supreme. He's promising absolute absurd nonsense and I am about it.
Unfortunately empty platitudes is all he can really do for basically anything now. He doesn't have a magic wand, legislation is up to Congress, and unfortunately voters gave republicans control of the House in the midterms. But he has always encouraged publicly and privately, Congress to send him bills that address these sorts of social issues. If he's not saying much now, it's probably because:
I think you've missed my point, which is that he can do more but seems more bent on appeasing Republicans and continuing the war with Russia that he's been helping push for the past 30 years. The issue with trans rights is that they can and should be argued at a Constitutional level and that's something he can do. That's a conversation that he can and has had plenty of time to start. Instead, he's doing the same shit as Bush did, which is letting it drag out while he works on the war. Simply put, I dislike that he's continuing the same slow status quo that got people dissatisfied with the government in the first place. All while using the same kind of distractions to get people to focus on dumb shit. Trump did the same thing when he threw out a military ban just around the same time his son was in the news for potential treason.
How can he do that and with whom would he be arguing?
Even calling this a war is a stretch because it's so one-sided. It's more of an invasion with Russia being the only party at fault, not Biden, Ukraine or anyone else.
What more do you think he can do? He literally has no power. Half of Congress is controlled by MAGA and SCOTUS is full of Trump/McConnell picks.
Typically in war one side invades - it's not less of a war because one side loses, that's the usual outcome
Maybe it's semantics, but Russia could end the war at any time by giving Ukraine back the territory it stole and leaving. There is no conflict, Ukraine wants nothing from Russia but to be left alone. That is different from many wars where there are multiple conflicts of varying degrees and it's not just a land grab.
Lots of wars have been land grabs
Yeah Virginia, Ohio and Kentucky had some blue wins this week
