This counter would work better if it wasn't a direct reply to Biden claiming he would do something if elected president lol
The president is simultaneously a helpless smol bean that can't do anything without a trifecta supermajority and friendly courts, and able to "do everything in his power" to the point I'm supposed to fear it.
He has the extrajudicial authority to drone strike Trump so long as he's in another country and can classify him as a terrorist (should be trivial given the liberal views about Jan 6th). But nooooooooo that would be "uncivil".
Hey, hey he can't just disagree with the parliamentarian or whatever the fuck they were called. Do you think he's the president or something?
The parliamentarian is the one I always remember whenever they pull the condescending "do you know how your own government works?" lines, since the president had the power to unilaterally (without any other input from anyone else) fire and re-hire a new parliamentarian that was more amenable to passing his agenda.
There was even historical precedent for it thanks to good old George W. Bush doing it for exactly that reason: the guy they had wouldn't do the job, so they shit-canned him and got somebody who would! My god, look at that ruthless efficiency! He had the power to solve the problem he was faced with, and he did! With Joe Biden, everybody just whined about the parliamentarian keeping poor Joe from passing his agenda (with democratic majorities in the house and senate) until media moved on, they eventually rotated villains to Joe Manchin and Kristen Sinema, etc.
Liberals are fucking jackasses. They understand this shit worse than anybody, but they're so condescending and up their own asses that they'll just keep burping up these thought-terminating cliches like they're making a point.
Liberals think the rules are there to protect them. Chuds think the rules are stacked against them, thus have no problem pushing them aside. Both are uniquely privileged views.
The president can only do good things with monumental effort
The president can do bad things easily without problem
Aw golly things are bad but GOLLY any change automatically makes things worse
then why is fucking biden not doing everything in HIS power right now??? why didnt he do it before???
being a lib is of course tragic, but being a lib who paid for twitter is irredeemable.
