She's probably Biden's biggest mistake. permalink fedilink source hideshow 20 child comments replies: [–] SailorFuzz@lemmy.world 54 points 1 week ago (3 children) Biggest mistake? That's a tough field. I'd argue it was not charging trump with Jan6, or any of his other crimes. or hiring and not firing Merrick Garland. or running a second term when he should have held a primary for a new candidate. Harris was a giant nobody during Biden's presidency.

Biden's out-of-the-gate COVID Vaccination Plan, and Economic Stimulus Plan were both wildly successful, and those two things alone would have put him among the Top 10 presidents of all time, IF he had done a decent job in the rest of of his administration. But he appointed the most feckless REPUBLICAN in existence to be his AG, and investigate the Trump Administration, and he proceeded to dither and slow-walk EVERYTHING for two years, allowing Trump to run out the clock, and MAGA to rise again. Worse, they did it all in plain sight, boasting about it the entire time, and the Biden Administration did absolutely NOTHING to try to avoid it, as we all SCREAMED to stop them, and were ignored. For that, Biden will be cemented among the Bottom 15, among the losers and traitors who allowed the Confederacy to gain strength and secede. Biden is one of them. permalink fedilink source parent [–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 14 points 1 week ago (2 children) Life would be better for millions of people on this planet if she was president instead of Trump.

But let’s not act like the slapdash way she was(by no fault of her own) made the candidate after Biden flopped hard in the first debate was normal or helpful.

DNC denying Bernie a second time should really put everything into perspective. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] timbuck2themoon@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 week ago (1 child) DNC didn't deny shit the second time. This is so annoying. Bernie lost fair and square. I voted for him, others did too but many, many more coalesced around Biden. Perhaps if him and Warren worked a deal that one would drop out in favor of the other but they didn't and thus split some votes. They didn't though, both lost. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Matrix6664@lemmy.world 1 point 6 days ago Nah fam, I disagree. The DNC was behind Biden since the very beginning, the other candidates didn't even get the same endorsements as a result. 2024 comes around and same crap again. permalink fedilink source parent [–] 3abas@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) Not his precious genocide? Looking at these comments, you're all fucking idiots. Downvote away. Nevermind the ethical implication of suggesting his worst mistakes we're not his unconditional support for Israel's genocide, political cover, illegal weapons transfers, repeatedly lying about seeing beheaded children, calling students from your own base protesting that terrorists and allowing police to attack them, dragging reporters out of the press room for asking questions, I could go on... Her unwillingness to not fully support genocide and call for "most lethal military" in the face of protests is why she wasn't elected. Trump being dragged into a war with Iran is directly connected to the series of events that unfolded as a result Israel committing genocide with US funding and political protection and cover. Literally everything we're dealing with today is because Biden insisted on having his genocide and callously licked ice cream while saying there are none chances of a ceasefire and repeatedly lying about seeing war crimes to justify dropping 2,000 bombs on a mostly child population. Fuck Biden and fuck everyone who remembers him for anything but his genocide. permalink fedilink source parent [–] 0ndead@infosec.pub 3 points 1 week ago But here you are picking at that zit…. permalink fedilink source parent [–] crusa187@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago Nah, you kidding?!

Obama's biggest mistake was playing it safe with a DEI hire for an ideologically bankrupt, incompetent old white guy for his VP. Harris doesn't have charisma with normal people (though she is apparently great at getting fundraising from the rich and powerful..) but at least she showed some kind of awareness of how to play politics unlike Biden who stumbled through his presidency and failed campaign for re-election like a dementia patient sleepwalking out onto a busy highway. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 3 points 1 week ago Biden was a politician whose time had passed. After Obama, the party should have moved in a new direction, even though Obama was as corpo-establishment as they come. Instead of going in a new, fresh direction, they appointed Biden, and we were right back to the olden days. permalink fedilink source parent

This is so annoying. Bernie lost fair and square. I voted for him, others did too but many, many more coalesced around Biden. Perhaps if him and Warren worked a deal that one would drop out in favor of the other but they didn't and thus split some votes.

[–] 3abas@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) Not his precious genocide? Looking at these comments, you're all fucking idiots. Downvote away. Nevermind the ethical implication of suggesting his worst mistakes we're not his unconditional support for Israel's genocide, political cover, illegal weapons transfers, repeatedly lying about seeing beheaded children, calling students from your own base protesting that terrorists and allowing police to attack them, dragging reporters out of the press room for asking questions, I could go on... Her unwillingness to not fully support genocide and call for "most lethal military" in the face of protests is why she wasn't elected. Trump being dragged into a war with Iran is directly connected to the series of events that unfolded as a result Israel committing genocide with US funding and political protection and cover. Literally everything we're dealing with today is because Biden insisted on having his genocide and callously licked ice cream while saying there are none chances of a ceasefire and repeatedly lying about seeing war crimes to justify dropping 2,000 bombs on a mostly child population. Fuck Biden and fuck everyone who remembers him for anything but his genocide. permalink fedilink source parent

[+] supersquirrel@lemmy.ca -12 points 1 week ago* (1 child) I don't like Harris but Biden was far less competent and suited to the moment. Obama's biggest mistake was playing it safe with a DEI hire for an ideologically bankrupt, incompetent old white guy for his VP. Harris doesn't have charisma with normal people (though she is apparently great at getting fundraising from the rich and powerful..) but at least she showed some kind of awareness of how to play politics unlike Biden who stumbled through his presidency and failed campaign for re-election like a dementia patient sleepwalking out onto a busy highway. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 3 points 1 week ago Biden was a politician whose time had passed. After Obama, the party should have moved in a new direction, even though Obama was as corpo-establishment as they come. Instead of going in a new, fresh direction, they appointed Biden, and we were right back to the olden days. permalink fedilink source parent
