    This comment is grosser than your name. Biden has been a shitheel in government for over 50 years.

    He was one of the best presidents since Jimmy Carter and the country and the world would be better off with him in power vs Trump.

    That just goes to show how bad the US is at electing leaders. Just terrible, even when good options do exist, to the point that I still don’t fully believe Mamdani is the New York Mayor.

    That’s because he’s not until January 1, 2026.

    That probably does something to it as well, but ok then change it to “I can’t believe that he was actually elected”.

    I don’t take anything for granted in North America. We just elected the most obviously corrupt person to be mayor of Montréal and even the total left/right votes between the four major parties skewed significantly right because we’re stupid as hell.

    I think in any healthy society he would have crushed with like 70% of the vote but he barely won which is pretty sad.

    Against his competion a healthy society would have looked at Cuomo and thrown him in the fucking garbage and Mamdani would have gotten 90%. Ya’ll gotta raise your standards, even if you don’t raise your expectations.

    It's because when you put a piece of ripe fruit into raw sewage it doesn't make the sewage suddenly drinkable, but suddenly I no longer want to eat the fruit. But hey with enough fruit and time that makes a farm, idk I'm trying to be positive here. Forget aboutit

    Does that mean you’re happy with the way Trump is handling things?

    Trump being horrendous in every way doesn't erase Biden, Obama and the like being bad leaders who preserve the status quo.

    1. He’s still alive.

    2. He’s better than Trump.

    3. Trump is the one who told you he hid the cancer diagnosis.

    4. Harris was VP and would have became the president if he died.

    All of these are facts and would have lead to a better present than now so what the fuck are you on about?

    All of those things are true. Explain how not liking him makes someone MAGA.

    Edit: wait what, in what world does Trump have anything to do with Biden’s hidden cancer diagnosis?

    Simply because of the American political system if you didn’t back Biden/Harris you voted/non-voted Trump in which is MAGA.

    So then when are we allowed to criticize corporate guzzling Dems? You said we weren’t allowed to during an election year, and you’re saying we’re not allowed to now. So when?

    useless corporate dickhead that hid his critical cancer diagnosis during a crucial campaign period

    Its pretty obvious. If you supported things like healthcare, equality, workers rights any of the typical leftwing policies you wouldnt be reacting in this way.

    If you're against expanding healthcare coverage, the Respect for Marriage Act, increasing diversity of the federal judiciary, increasing min wage, increasing labor protections then you arent leftwing and may as well be MAGA.

    The list of positive things he passed is huge and if you go through that and find yourself against all of it then thats gross. Just say you're maga, we have people on this platform who simp for Stalin im sure you'll fit right in.

    No, likely a leftist. There's two people who hate Biden, the MAGAts and leftists. Biden did some good things but so did Trump, broken clock metaphor. Biden also slow walked us into this by not persecuting Trump for sedition like he should have. It makes the "paid opposition" argument much harder to dismiss of the neo-liberal dems.

    Biden doesnt control the DOJ. He doesnt decide how and when someone should be persecuted. Trump does this and its wrong. The list of good things Biden did is very long, with trump its maybe one or two things if that while the list for bad stuff is huge. There is no comparison.
