holy hyperbole batman!!!
biden's past and future actions have and will fuck up my life several times before i die; meanwhile trump has unwittingly helped.
also biden's track record of supporting the status quo no matter what, especially when it comes to lgbt issues and human rights; proves that he would also willingly go along with whatever laws that those cryptofacists successfully sustain through congress and the supreme court. (sometimes there are signs that he may have grown a conscience, so i want to be clear: he won't like it, but he'll go along with it willingly).
Trump has helped your life as a member of the gay community?
And you are posting from .ml?
I'm curious, but on alert.
Big "as a gay black man" energy.
brown in this case
even a broken clock is right twice a day; but in trump's case it was only once. lol
can you be specific about what trump action was helpful to you??? Just for fairness biden has directly helped me with no surprise billing, banning con competes, many infrstructure repairs and improvements in my area that got money from the ombudsman bill, and this one is a bit less direct but rejoining the paris accord was huge for me. So anyway im curious of the trump actions that helped you specifically because from my seat its been squat.
trump's asshattery at creating trade wars backfired on american companies and that forced them to hire new people including me; that enabled me to move away from austin texas and i'll be thankful for that for the rest of my life.
um. thats a lot of dominoes between his action an your result.
