If Hillary runs as an independent candidate, I might actually pay attention to election season.
I’ll tell my lib friends that it’s her turn.
The amount of copium on reddit insisting he's actually winning, the entire concept of polling is wrong (until one shows him ahead) and everybody agrees that the Republicans message that the economy is bad is ridiculous and everybody realizes its just a ridiculous republican talking point.
I can't believe they're actually pretending to not see that rake they're enthusiastically high stepping towards.
It's all bots or people with enough money that the economy is good for them because their 401k has been ripping up
"Nothing will fundamentally change"
I mean, everybody promised that Biden was only going to be a one term president so he's just working on making that campaign promise a reality.
Only two campaign promises he will ever fulfill:
- "Nothing will fundamentally change"
- "I will be a one-term president"
The solution to this is exactly the same as all the other Biden and dem problems. It's our least favorite four letter word.
I'm not entirely sure how pissing on Biden will help but I don't know enough about electoralism to know for sure so I'll trust you on this
least favorite four letter word
If you don't vote for Biden next year the big mean man will come back and be rude on twitter. Do you want that?
It's just amazing how much Israel means to the US political class, that they are willing to self destruct to keep supporting Israel. They don't even bother to use weaselly political talk to sound humanitarian, they are just giving Israel a blank check to do mass slaughter. Dems or Repubs, the Israel lobby wins.
Vast military importance AND cultural (all American Christians have a very confusing relationship with Israel due to Revelations)
Like there's no way for them to see through it, it's the foundation of their whole belief system ideologically and religiously.
Just when you think they can't outdo themselves, they deliver. And it's the only thing they're ever capable of consistently delivering. 📉
Maybe he'll reach 2008-era Bush numbers by March, who knows.
On one hand, it'd be really funny to watch Biden lose by Carter - Reagan margins
On the other, I hate conservatives too so
I think all trump has to do is make normies uncomfortable for everyone to flock to Biden
I know some people irl who turned against trump for nothing other than January 6th
Probably, he's mostly just been letting Biden flail and hasn't been in public much to make his own gaffes

Funnily enough, that makes me think of Biden himself. Joined the Republican party initially, then left it when Watergate broke because Nixon was 'too unsavory'
Seems perfectly befitting of reactionaries, leaving a party not because of their politics and policies themselves but because the party figurehead is too mean
Like all of those Lincoln project dweebs who left the GOP not because its fascist but because it lacks decorum and civility
That's pretty bad , damn, it took Trump the covid winter + January 6th to finally fall below 40%.
Probably doesn't help that Biden now looks like he belongs in a sarcophagus.
It's the base.
Trump knows 40% of the country loves it when he says immigrants are poisoning the blood of the country and we need to deport everybody who isn't a white Christian republican.
He takes shit from the media but sticks to his fascist rhetoric and 40% of the country will literally drive across the country to smear their shit on the walls of Pelosis office.
Meanwhile Bidens base is people who don't like fascism but also don't feel strongly about the climate, workers rights, or genocides.
And then whenever he faces any pushback he tells his base to fuck off and agress the Republicans have sone legit concerns.
It’s the economy, stupid 
I feel like this headline could apply to every American president in my lifetime
What is this cyclical hell
That's our gaffe-prone Genocide Joe! Isn't he just adorable?? Never know what's gonna pop outta his mouth!
Congress are the ones that approve aid to Israel so why are you guys mad at Biden? I need you to vote for him in 2024 to keep Chest Cheeto out of office, this is the most important election of our lives!

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:
-
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
-
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
-
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.
