      Because it’s bullshit double standards. And I, for one, have lost complete faith in what the public thinks about anything, especially when it comes to politics.

        Yeah I have zero faith in Americans at this point. My excuse for Americans in 2016 was that a minority of them put the orange shitstain into office because our electoral system is broken. But this time the majority did. So at best, the majority of Americans are mentally stunted and morally bankrupt.

        I trust Americans about as far as I can throw them, and since roughly 40% are obese and an additional 30% are overweight, that isn’t very far.

      Trump and his posse have also been on a 8+ year tirade about imprisoning/killing the guy as well. No way would I spend my remaining days (Biden is realistically not long for this world) on egg shells waiting to see if they are going to further punish my kid that would already be serving his prison term (unlike Trump!).

      And I think Biden would have 100% stuck to his previous stance had Trump not chosen the most grossly incompetent and very vindictive selections for his DOJ positions (and all spots really) hellbent on going scorched earth on Biden and everyone ever in his orbit.

        How does that have anything to do with the related topic? Been sitting on that all day waiting for a chance to use it? Unsuccessfully, too.

              I just find Stan-ing for Biden hilarious. Idk why anyone would care so much about another politician who clearly only serves his own interests. Between aiding an obvious genocide and not going after trump & his enablers in the 4 years in office, he is a pathetic joke. A squandered presidency only to hand it back with more norms erased is nothing to celebrate.

              …but yes, every adult who thinks Biden sucks are the fucking dumb ones. Enjoy a shrinking base

                I don’t know what you’re reading, but the commentor made no such claim. You’re being disingenuous and lying.

                    And you keep disregarding this.
