It really shows how out of touch they are when they think the only problem voters have with Biden is that he’s old

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 93 points 7 months ago

They know it's not the only problem voters have, they intentionally frame it as an age issue to take away from the actual grievances.

[-] Philosoraptor@hexbear.net 56 points 7 months ago

It's the same strategy they used with Hillary, only there it was gender instead of age. Worked great last time!

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 37 points 7 months ago

Yup turns out of you have a problem with repeatedly destabilizing third would countries turning them into humanitarian crisis time and time again its because you're sexist.

[-] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 92 points 7 months ago

Wow such effective messaging. Hard to believe she lost in 2016 with these amazing skills

[-] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 82 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

She's the personification of the democratic party.

"Why won't you poor idiots just fucking vote for me"

[-] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 39 points 7 months ago

biden-point If you don't vote for me, you ain't Black!

Being called "compassionate and effective" by the woman who:

A. Is behind Libya

and B. Lost to Donald fucking Trump

is not exactly high praise in my book

[-] porcupine@lemmygrad.ml 77 points 7 months ago

Why should I give a shit about Trump's million felony charges when Democrats clearly don't? Every US president in my lifetime has been an unrepentant war criminal, and Trump will never face any material consequences for any crimes he committed as president. If the Democrats seriously believe Trump is an existential threat to American "democracy", it's entirely within their power to disqualify him from running, imprison him for life, or execute him without any input from congress or the courts.

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 33 points 7 months ago

Yup their message about how Trump has broken a bunch h of laws has been really undercut by them breathlessly defending the last three people who refused to do anything about him.

"They only get one shot at this which is why the smart move is to never do anything, why isn't there any enthusiasm for us?"

Yeah let me ask Gaza about that socalled "compassion".

[In butthead's voice] Can you like- Shut up?

[-] TechnoUnionTypeBeat@hexbear.net 69 points 7 months ago

compassionate

Didn't he once yell at someone and call them fat for daring to question his Union stance?

[-] PapaStevesy@midwest.social 47 points 7 months ago

A Union stance that immediately crumbled under the slightest corporate pressure.

[-] JayTwo@hexbear.net 27 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

For the Iowa farmer it was both a question about his advanced age and the alleged nepotism hire of Hunter in Ukraine. Biden said what sounded like "look fat" but his campaign claimed he said "look, facts...".
He did call him a damn liar and too old to vote for him though.

He also argued with a factory worker about his 2A stance and called him full of shit.

Eight years later and she's learned nothing. No change of messaging. Incredible politics genius shit.

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 35 points 7 months ago

"The democratic party can not fail, it can only be failed" but it's a 100% genuinely held belief

Yeah real compassionate to Gaza I see. Literal moron.

[-] Rom@hexbear.net 58 points 7 months ago

Please, by all means tell on-the-fence voters to get over themselves, surely that will sway them to vote for Biden.

[-] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 57 points 7 months ago

The only thing Biden is effective at is doing genocide

[-] riseuppikmin@hexbear.net 54 points 7 months ago

I support Hillary Clinton being a part of Biden's re-election campaign so long as it requires her to be around Biden's dogs for an extended period of time.

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 37 points 7 months ago

I just hope she gets the credit she deserves for the outcome.

"Somehow losing to trump twice in a decade" should be the first line of her obituary

She is addicted to losing elections, even those she's not actively participating in!

[-] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 48 points 7 months ago

absolute banger campaign messaging.

"I do not support this administration due to its very public policies and actions."
"Get over yourself. Pokemon GO to the polls!"

i never thought of it that way, millionaire grandma, esquire. gotta go straight ticket the ballot now.

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 46 points 7 months ago

She is light itself. She is dancing, always dancing. She never sleeps. She says she will never die.

[-] coeliacmccarthy@hexbear.net 30 points 7 months ago

the freedom of pokemon is an insult to me. i'd have them all go to the polls

I'd be mildly surprised if this added even a single vote to Biden's side.

I would literally use up a genie wish just to get liberals to crucify her over the pied piper bullshit. It just will not stop bothering me that literally not one of them know or give a shit that she literally HELPED TRUMP GET ELECTED IN THE FUCKING FIRST PLACE AS PART OF A SOCIOPATHIC PLAN THAT BACKFIRED.

SHE GAVE US TRUMP, DIRECTLY, SHE IS TO BLAME.

Fucking tar and feather her for it god damn fuckers

[-] NewLeaf@hexbear.net 28 points 7 months ago

When you bring it up you just get downvoted on reddit-logo with no rebuttal. They refuse to engage with it

[-] DyingOfDeBordom@hexbear.net 35 points 7 months ago

It is literally maddening. Like, the biggest smoking gun in the history of political bullshit. Hillary Clinton boosted Trump. They planned on it. It was a dumb plan and they did it anyway and because of that, more than Hillary actually losing that election to begin with, she is directly responsible for Trump's popularity, his election, and every awful thing attributable to him. Hillary fucking did it.

[-] NewLeaf@hexbear.net 23 points 7 months ago

They keep doing it in smaller races too. If you were to donate to the Democratic party, there is a big chance your money will be directly spent on the biggest psycho running in some local campaign..

The only difference between them is that one has not been charged. Biden is a rabid dog that should be beaten to death with a stick.

[-] zifnab25@hexbear.net 39 points 7 months ago

charged with 91 felonies

Okay, Hildawg. How many has he been convicted on?

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 24 points 7 months ago

Seriously they keep claiming to be the only people who will oppose them and then, very notably, not doing a God damn thing to oppose him.

Biden really showing his compassion in Gaza and Ukraine right now. Arming Israeli fascists carrying out genocide in Gaza, and arming Ukrainian fascists sacrificing their country and continent at the behest of the USA is very compassionate. Very compassionate of the US to bomb the Nordstream pipelines and kill Europe's energy independence.

[-] NuraShiny@hexbear.net 32 points 7 months ago

She has given her touch of death. I am 100% convinced Trump will won now.

[-] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 29 points 7 months ago

average democratic voter outreach: an unpopular surrogate who lost an election twenty years ago gives an interview telling voters to "pull up your big boy pants and stop whining"

average republican voter outreach: AI-generated facebook post of jewish joe biden sucking blood from a christian baby

What a thread. There are some serious pockets of the dem mindset in there.

---

It's been eight fucking years the total number of votes doesn't fucking matter. But the old chestnut is unkillable.

Yeah, she was a horrible candidate.

And yet--more people voted for her than the other guy. In any sane system that'd be a win.

---

"But it would be sweet..." but, oh, - the GOP are the boogiemen! Yeesh.

Same could be said of this election tbh. Dems don't tell us anything except 'we're not trump....isn't that enough?' it's not enough anymore.

I only vote blue but it would be sweet to see someone do something about the cost of living… or food prices… or the housing market… or insurance… or healthcare. I know it isn’t as simple as just doing something about it. Our representation is so inefficient, largely due to the total fucking morons running the right.

---

Trump is the boogieman.

She is wrong, though. People mad about this election are not egocentric. You can vote for Biden and understand Trump is awful while still loathing this broken system and the awful choices the establishment gives us. Hillary wants us to just shut up and fall in line

shut up and fall in line

The alternative is a man who literally said he's going to be a dictator - [I'm not going to be a dictator] "other than day one", [I won't abuse my power] "except for day one".

Vote for the person with the chance of winning who doesn't say he's going to be a dictator, and after you're done with that work on fixing the "broken system" and finding people who aren't "awful choices the establishment gives us".

This "I'm-too-pure-for-anything-but-perfection" mindset is going to get a dictator elected.

[-] zifnab25@hexbear.net 38 points 7 months ago

And yet--more people voted for her than the other guy. In any sane system that'd be a win.

I mean, I agree with this sentiment. But constantly coming back to the Democrats, when they refuse to do so much as implement DC Statehood because its just too hard!!! is fucking pathetic.

Dems don't want a sane system.

[-] Parzivus@hexbear.net 24 points 7 months ago

It is pretty wild that Republicans have only won the popular vote in one (1) election in the past 35 years. Democracy btw
