MODERATORS
Trump's tariffs in his first term were also a mistake, but Biden kept them and even added onto them. Biden should shut the fuck up for costing the democrats the election because he was too power-hungry to let go, even though he's a walking fossil. Seriously, he's so decrepit but instead of relaxing and enjoying the remainder of his life, he chose to stick around like a ghoul and hand Trump a second term.
What's even worse than the major mistake of a bunch of silly tariffs is the supporting of genocide, which Biden loved doing. He couldn't get enough of supporting genocide. That's his legacy and he shouldn't bother trying to talk about mistakes because he's just about the worst person to talk about doing the wrong thing.
.... And you actually believe that trumpmwill stop that genocide?
No, where did you pull that out from?
Your message where you shit over Biden bect he couldn't stop the genocide. You place that as him loving it. Really? What do you think will happen under Trump?
Biden could have, and in fact, legally was supposed to once the UN declared a likely case of genocide being perpetrated by Israel.
biden could have stopped it, but instead he actively supported it by sending billions to israel, even bypassing congress to send his support. That's how committed he was to the cause of genocide. I said nothing about trump being better, he obviously won't be, but biden's full support of genocide has nothing to do with trump other than being able to point at trump as an excuse for "moderate" support of genocide.
Uh huh. All for points to have been brought up now, after the elections. Unfortunately, the likes of you lived to shitbon Biden and Harris about this, and blnow we have trump. Thanks for showing the world you're right! I'm sure the Palestinians will also think, when they get burried, well at least the US lefties showed them!
These points were brought up during the election many times, but clearly you weren't paying attention. People were begging Biden to listen and to stop the genocide, but instead he thought the winning strategy was to ignore voters because he loves supporting genocide more than winning the election. He is a power-hungry ghoul who ran for president way too late in his life in 2020 when he was already showing clear signs of mental decline and then he rewarded the democratic party who put him there by dropping out way too late in 2024 when instead he should've passed the torch over so we could've had a proper primary in 2024. Instead the democratic party scrambled to put together the Harris campaign on short notice and she was forced to continue the same rhetoric as Biden, which ultimately is what sank her campaign.
Throughout his entire career, Biden sold his soul to the military industrial complex, the prison industrial complex, and the banks, but for some reason, the likes of you think he's some sort of savior. I guess you were living under a rock for over a year while Biden sent 2,000 pound bombs to israel to use for genocide. Now you're blaming the left for what Biden did. Biden is the best ally Trump could've asked for.
