I no longer have any charity for these outgoing presidential remarks. What he is saying makes sense, but given that he didn’t bring this up or do anything about it when he had power, these sentiments are hollow pandering at best. Fuck you Joe Biden, your legacy is that you presided over the dissolution of American democracy and did genocide. No hollow words on your way out will change that.
President Biden warns of ‘oligarchy’ as he bids farewell to five decades in
politicsservice to the oligarch-beholden establishmentFixed it for them.
If we allowed Biden and the DNC to write the tax plans it would have made billionaires eat shit. Instead the country reelected the guys who made the last awful tax plan just as it expires next year.
He did try many times to get rid of student loans, only for Trump’s judicial picks to say it’s illegal to forgive loans of poor people
Fun fact: if he hadn’t deliberately means tested student loan forgiveness to death, the GOP lawyers wouldn’t have been able to argue discrimination and he knew that.
He wanted the credit for trying, but his owner donors didn’t want his “attempt” to actually succeed.
and he knew that.
Or
He’s a fucking liberal that believes means-testing actually works.
Except for all the times that it doesn’t. This is one of those times.
People who are rich enough to not need student loan forgiveness don’t have student loans in the first place. Either they come from a rich family that paid for their college or they did so themselves after becoming rich.
With that in mind, means testing student loan forgiveness to death was a hell of a lot of downside including the argument that the fascists used to kill it, in exchange for absolutely no upside.
Regardless of his personal beliefs, half a century worth of experience should be WAY more than necessary to find out how things work regardless of how you think they SHOULD work.
He either knew that means testing would doom it to failure and did it anyway, means tested it BECAUSE he knew it would cause it to fail, or he was WAY too incompetent and naive for someone who’d been in the game for longer than most people have been ALIVE.
Either way, he fucked it up.
Except for all the times that it doesn’t. This is one of those times.
Whether it actually works has nothing to do with whether he believes it works.
Whether or not he believes in something working after FIFTY YEARS of trying and mostly failing it says a lot about how stubborn and/or bad at his job he is.
If we allowed Biden and the DNC to write the tax plans
We did. As usual, they didn’t do what they and people like yourself who’s drunk the kool-aid keep pretending they’re going to do.
We literally didn’t, lol, the Trump era tax plans expire next year.
He was president and the Dems had congressional majorities for some of the time. If they really wanted to significantly overhaul the tax code, they could have.
They want to PRETEND that they’re on the side of the people against the billionaires to fool the gullible into thinking that they’re the good guys rather than the least bad ones, but they know who pays them and it ain’t you…
The senate was a 50:50 deadlock unable to pass anything without Republicans agreeing or they faced filibuster, and even then they needed all 48/47 DNC and independents to vote in unison if none of the Republicans crossed the isle, then utilize VP tiebreaker.
The house was a DNC majority for only his first two years.
And as I explained to you multiple times, the tax plan did not expire under Biden’s presidency.
“They”? I think you mean Sinema and “Mansion”.
I mean them, Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, Jeffries, and the rest of the DNC leadership.
Crazy he didn’t notice the USA has been an oligarchy the whole time lmao.
Crazy he is laundering billions of dollars for military contractors by funneling them into a genocide
Shoveling money to defense contractors is as American as Apple pie.
This warning would not have happened if Harris had won but the oligarchy would still exist. Bit too late to notice it now.
Lol he’s a part of it
Biden: beware of oligarchy
Losers who didn’t vote for him or Kamala: STFU OLD MAN
Fuck me, you people are so goddamn fucking dumb.
Indeed.
Everytime we get a “should’ve voted ‘us’ to stop ‘them’” take the source is a dumb simpleton tribalist no matter what American Party the ‘us’ and ‘them’ is referring to - same stupid, simple, tribe-wedded parrotinbg, different tribe loyalty.
I certainly did vote for him and Harris.
And still say STFU OLD MAN.I’m also donating monthly, to Represent.Us and The Forward Party.
Biden is part of the fucking oligarchy. Voting for him would not have a changed a damn thing about the oligarchy.
Should retire, right now, so Kamila is president for a few days. Just so technically she’s a president. Just to annoy trump
wanton baby murder wasn’t enough to get him to change his position, so, i wouldn’t hold my breath about this one
Are you trolling or in it for the long game? Cause, there might not be any Palestinians left next time the US gets to vote.
i don’t know why you’re bitching at me when i agree with you lol
Cause you’re selling when there is nothing to sell. And you are doing in an ineffective way. You don’t wake the normies up by screeching at them.
She’s already been Sitting President, if you count that.
Just to make all those Trump 47 bumper stickers look silly.
I’m not a fan of any of them but this would be hilarious.
I am personally for small fuckery to Trump fans, just to make them squirm and piss their pants.
let me be frank, they’d feverishly fork over a few more fistfuls of fiat for some fashionable forty-eight fittings
Ah yes, the healthy Democracy of a developed nation…
Yeah, thanks dude, for not actually doing anything about it. Enjoy your millions in retirement.
This just in: Oligarch warns about other oligarchs
Timely.
It makes me feel less crazy that people in here are saying exactly what I’ve felt for years.
God it’s nice to know others can see that the rotating seat of emperor has no clothes.
Oligarch warns of oligarchy
On what fucking planet is Biden an oligarch
Are you fucking kidding me? He’s a plutocrat.
You have to have a LOT more money than Joe has to be a plutocrat. A LOT more
Its still rule by the rich if the politicians are appointed and work for the rich.
Also Biden is rich by every measure
No
Biden has his faults, sure, but Trump & co are on such another level that it’s literally not funny anymore
Without Biden, Trump and Co. had a pretty fucking decent shot at losing. Sorry, but between his breathtaking hubris for running again, and his inflexibility on Israel, I will never, ever forgive that man. He had one fucking job, and he fucking blew it. Same-sex marriage will be “state by state” by the end of the year, and I will be an old man before my LGBT and female friends and family have their rights restored - and that’s if they have their rights restored.
That is a cost of decades upon the ones I love. I cannot and will not forgive that because he has a “D” next to his name when he did more than any single person to ensure that theocratic fascist cretinous scum with an “R” next to their names got locked into power.
Whataboutism
Maybe.
It’s also very true
The point is that both are terrible and should be imprisoned for their crimes. By saying 'but Trump tho" you’re trying to take the discussw away from condemning Biden in this article about Biden.
Trump has committed (and currently is committing) an amount of crimes that should leave him rotting in a.jail cell for centuries
What are Biden’s crimes?
Genocide
Really now?
Cool…
Anything you have to support your slightly ridiculous claim?
Also, and I really look forward to this answer: do you think trump will stop all this, give the Palestinians their land back and let them have their own state …? Or do you think he’ll eradicate them, wipe his ass with them while he’s pointing and laughing at them while they’re dying?
Do you really believe that trump will do better than Harris?
“No one’s standard of living will change, nothing will fundamentally change”
- Biden addressing his donors in 2019
Joe biden lost a winnable election due to his own vanity and lack of human decency. Fuck him. He governed better than any democrat since what Lindon Johnson? But its far too little too late to pay for a lifetime of fucking people over
Biden is a war criminal and if there was any justice he would rot in prison with his entire administration.
What does it tell you when both candidate of a genocidal country bloat about the ceasefire they got after months and months of slaughter, while their allies bombed people **while they celebrated the said ceasefire. **
And if you voted for this fuck I personally hate you. Fucking die.
Rot in hell Joe.
