Maybe if Biden had written EOs for every goddamned thing we wouldn't be in this mess.
He didn't have the advantage of SCOTUS backing everything he wrote.
In fact, the US Supreme Court actively opposed him.
Well it's a good thing he didn't try then. Things would be so much worse.
Biden was a centrist Democrat who tried to get progressive in his presidential term, but yes, it was a too little too late.
Nah Biden was a conservative who did conservative things his entire term.
Biden was an pro-corporate, pro-genocidal piece of shit who deserves to be in prison.
I'm agreeing with you, but I'm also pointing out that "too little, too late" is being very, verrrrry generous.
Biden had the perfect slam-dunkingly solid golden sure win opportunity(s) to take out FatCunt ChildRaper for a myriad of blatantly illegal things. The main stars of which were the televised attempt at an insurrection, and the stealing of top secret documents which were stored in an unlocked room next to a fax...A FAX!!!.
Plus many other things that would be just as easy to prosecute because, let's face it, the orange imbecile and family aren't criminal geniuses.
But, no, instead of going for the tRUMP from day one the old dipshit just slow walked that bullshit for years...then it wasn't his problem anymore.
I didn't exactly like Biden when he was elected, but I now actively hate the guy for doing fuck all. The whole world is a much worse place because Biden is a coward.
slow walking trumps trials and giving him press for a whole year was a big mistake, and this includes doing nothing about epstein files.
There was no small amount of obstruction from the Republican party and SCOTUS. It was a while before Garland was appointed AG. Judge Cannon raised some weird challenges to the investigations and indictments against Trump, including his unlawful possession of classified documents.
And then SCOTUS gave Trump immunity for everything he did in office, essentially requiring any challenges to that immunity be taken up with the captured Supreme Court itself.
There were a tuckfun of shenanigans played to delay until Biden's term was over. And then the voters had the audacity to elect Trump for a second term, with full awareness of what kind of monster he was.
Essentially, the voters of the US decided to let him get away with it, and take over the federal government to rob the treasury.
To quote Jamille Bouie, To think that the American people did that [elected Trump as President], to think that is the reality of the situation, raises difficult questions about this country, difficult questions about our capacity for self government.
Sounds like you're admitting Biden couldn't get the job done.
Sounds like you're trying to reduce a complex, nuanced situation to naïve, simplistic terms.
I don't understand the point of your comment, assuming it was made in good faith.
He lost us abortion.
No, Trump took abortion from us when he got to appoint three captured Federalist Society justices on SCOTUS. it just took a couple of years to die.
Next, you'll be saying he lost Afghanistan, when Trump arranged US surrender.
Uhhh.. What?
Maybe if Obama had done something about Russian election interference on behalf of trump in 2016, we wouldn't be in this mess.
Most American American to ever America gets elected as president.
Dems: Russia did it!!
Most of us don't want our government to work that way
Well you got what you wanted. Now what?
How, pray tell, did I get what I wanted?
You didn't want Biden to sign a bunch of EOs. He didn't. You got what you wanted. Trump is president now. Now what?
So you want the president to seize more power than they legally have and for that escalation to continue whether a fascist is in office or not. Yeah great plan.
Well Biden didn't so you got what you wanted. Now what?
Let republicans do it only, then. Great plan!
