Chuck Schumer's dentures feel personally attacked.

So. like. the too-long-didn't-care is treating responsibility for things like it's zero sum game is stupid. Absolutely... incomprehensibly stupid.

Biden is absolutely repsonsible for having not done everything in his power as POTUS to put trump in jail.

and lets not forget... for the first half of Biden's presidency, he had both the house and the senate- not by supermajority levels, no. but they had control and they pissed it away with compromise.

And if you're going to give Biden credit for the Build Back Better bill and the other one... which I'm sure you do... then Biden can also take credit for that. (especially the decision to not pack the courts, or break the filibuster.)

Actually, I do blame him for overestimating his health, and thinking he had enough in the tank for another run. He clearly did not.

Would Harris have still been the nominee had there been an actual primary? Maybe, maybe not. But whoever won that would have been a better candidate.

I was extremely pissed off after watching that debate. The man I saw that night simply didn't have it anymore, and it was more than just jetlag or a cold. There was nobody close to Biden who could have sat down with him before the election and told him directly that he didn't have it anymore?

We talk about how Trump surrounds himself with yes-men and sycophants. I think Biden didn't do much better.

I guess letting Trump run out the clock on justice was the voters fault too, then, eh? Even when Biden was literally handed a way to prevent Trump from running on a silver platter by the Supreme Court that basically ruled that anything a President does is part of Presidential Duties. He and the entire apparatus around him including twerps like Merrick Garland has so many fucking options to stop this. The courts, the department of justice, the President, all of them had taken an oath to protect democracy and that oath doesn't disappear because the voters are stupid. They all bend over like grass under a push-me-pull-you lawnmower going "oh for fucks sake" and deciding that fighting corruption was too hard and too risky for themselves personally. People whined about judges getting death threats and that's why they were hesitant to play hardball... Are you fucking kidding me? Like they thought that would protect them or anyone else? Now fascism is boldly kicking the fucking doors in and those people and their families are in more danger than they were back then, except now the whole country is in just as much danger. They bent over because their pussy asses thought they could and should save themselves instead of fight fascism and asshats are all like "it's the voters fault!" when Trump legally shouldn't have been allowed to run for the Presidency at all for a litany of reasons and nobody with any real power did anything to stop it! Sure, it's our fault, not a system that allowed it to happen, fuck me, give me a break! The people in charge abdicated their responsibility to justice and then said it's the voters fault, get the fuck out of here.

Stop rewriting history. In a country where laws actually meant something and mattered he would have been in prison for 34 felonies and not allowed to run due to being an insurrectionist and guilty of treason for stealing and selling state secrets. How the living fuck is that the voters fault? The system failed the voters before the voters failed the system.
