Sure sounds like he’s riding off into the sunset and only concerned about appointing judges, important of course, but can’t he do anything to blunt at least some of the shit is coming our way?
I can only go by what I see & Im baffled by his inaction re: Merrick Garland's delays. He should have fired Garland by 2022 at least. I don't understand why Trump was allowed to run again. I don't understand why Trump wasn't arrested asap & imprisoned awaiting trial. I could go on, but it's not Ok
When chaos reigns and remedies are necessary, optimism seems more of an impediment; simultaneously acting as an impotent panacea and a form of denial that moves us no closer to solutions. Is anyone hearing solutions? Optimism alone is dangerous, and annoying.
My critique, Biden treaded this transition of the Presidency like it was normal.
He didn’t use his presidential immunity to try to protect our Democracy. Him and Harris gave up too quick from the election and didn’t push back on the voting irregularities.
YES! AND WHY? THEY BOTH GAVE UP ON us . We fought, donated, and voted for they to not be a typical Dem. These are dangerous times. We are close to a Civil War. Biden needs to fight for everything like it is the last battle against MAGA.
Biden, his Democratic Senate, nor his DOJ saved us from a Republican party and President who conspired a coup and a insurrection. Even though they drug him and his son through the mud. Democrats are profoundly weak.
Garland was too weak and Biden tried too hard to play by the rules. He relied on his morals, but can’t do that with this GOP Magat party. Those rules are gone! !!
There's plenty of blame to go around. Number one was allowing Trump and the GOP freedom to continue and flood the public with lies. If you refuse to fight bullies they only get more emboldened. Thinking the problem would just go away was the fatal error.
Unless there is some great and good miracle that stops the Trump juggernaut, I fear he will be the last president of these United States… a US that we could all recognize, and that felt like home…
Licking Netanyahu’s feet. Baby do you understand how much worse it would get if we didn’t have that leverage over Israel? I’m talking 200k dead in a month bad. You might not think that it could get worse, but war history shows it could get 10 times worse.
Literally no one can stop Netanyahu. If we froze arms, he would just rely on India, and go full scorched earth on Gaza. The fact that millions aren’t dead is due to Biden’s leverage.
100%. And in the end it’s Biden’s responsibility as he selected garland. It was really clear there were options for an aggressive AG and the turtle. He chose the turtle because of “let’s turn the page”
Biden had the power to replace Garland. They both were too worried about what people would think.
Ironically the same basic mistake Trump made about Covid. He was worried that fighting covid would hurt his chances - so he did nothing and killed 400,000+ mostly conservative Americans.
I'm not sure Biden is paying attention, but by the look of Trump's nominees which get more and more insane with each announcement it seems they are hell bent on destroying everything the Biden administration has accomplished.
Biden has worked hard for our country. He deserves to enjoy some retirement time before he can't. I am forever grateful for the Biden-Harris administration for all they've done for our country, and in such a short time. I only wish President Harris was 47. 💙🥹
Although I appreciate all you have done Pres Biden, you are not finished. You must realize the times we are in. What are you and dems willing to do to save us and our democracy republic? I do not want to live thru th 60's again. Don't leave the job unfinished.
So grandpa has absolutely no plan for his last months in office and didn’t have one for the possibility of MAGA winning WH, House, Senate or all three.
Mediocrity, incompetence and getting slaughtered by MAGA will be his legacy.
So much anger towards people that denigrated him. He didn't want to run in the first place but he did it for the country. Obama and Joe tried so fuckin hard to save us.
Post-1980 JC had decades to rehabilitate his reputation with H4H. #Biden is out of time and will be remembered as the failed one-term president who ushered fascism into the United States. The Biden administration is our own Weimar Republic.
Eh.. I love him but I think his 1950’s belief that bipartisanship still works, people are inherently good and a lack of understanding that evil is trying to destroy the US from the inside likely at the direction of a foreign government severely hurt our chance of saving the country and the planet.
It is important for voters in swing states who used mail-in ballots and supported the Harris/Walz team to visit the https://vote.org website and verify that their ballots were delivered and counted. Please like, follow, and share this message, especially if you live in a swing state. 🇺🇸🦋💙
"The Supreme Court gave me all kinds of powers I could have used to protect democracy but I wouldn't use 'em! I refused to fight and I'm proud of that! Manchin said no to BBB, which people loved, so we'll just need to vote harder next time!"
Gotta love the apparent rolling eyes over literal genocide. That's how little it mattered to you all.
Then again, maybe I just don't understand how much "working tirelessly on ceasefire" means. You know, when the US actively blocks all attempts to accomplish that while Israel drop more US bombs.
If we cancelled shipments to Israel we’d lose all leverage. You might not think it can get worse, it can. 200k civilians in Nanjing were killed in six weeks during WWII. Netanyahu wanted Trump to win, bc both men are keeping each other from going to prison.
Also, how dare you fucking lecture me and the POS pretending like this a matter akin to late mail? How dare you imagine what's worse? This pretentious posturing is incredibly disgusting and why I fucking despise your guts.
I don't need your advice on how to care for my people. Piss off.
Leverage? Reagan made one fucking phone call to stop Israel. Fucking Reagan.
Stop pretending like this is some overcomplicated process bogged down by layers of bureaucracy. Even if it was the right solution is to immediately tear it down.
Fact is Biden did all this willingly.
You don’t think the president of the United States has influence over our allies? The genocide and war crimes aren’t Biden’s *fault* but he could have tried to stop them and he didn’t. That’s his fault.
Not "Genocide" you say?
What word do you have for "setting out to clear a territory by exterminating the occupants, and eradicating all signs of their culture"?
And now the genocide will be covered up with new condos on the water.
And in the US there will be more mass deportation and suffering, and less opportunity, healthcare, and freedom.
Not if Trump and the kooks and goons (Musk et-al) blot it out. They'll take credit of the economy and infrastructure work...they'll wreck it of course.
If real fascists (and I believe they are) were taking over I wouldn't be giving speeches about norms and shit.
All I want to hear from #Biden is that he's using this magic #PresidentialImmunity to refuse to allow Trump to take office and harm America. Recounts and forensic audits of the swing states--even a new election. Our founders wouldn't stand for this. "That's how we've always done it" is over.
It feels like Joe would be just fine with Trump moving into the WH now. And doing the transition from the Oval Office. You know —- the opposite of what Trump did in 2020. We are defeated .
Clinton fixed many problems from the Reagan Bush era & might be the last President to Balance a Budget.
Due to Bubba's personal problems enter Bush jr.
Obama cleaned up Bush jr's mess & got us a flawed but fixable HC plan.
Enter DJT.
Biden avoided a recession but gas cost too much.
Enter DJT.
Things have already changed for me. Police choppers fly over every night here. Used to never bother me. Now it causes cold chills- almost a panic attack. It will get worse.
Ok but why aren’t you fighting until the end is the real question? We need a recount and an investigation on machines. You are abandoning us that’s what you are doing
When the Biden bandage comes off, the wound is going to open once again. He wasn't the best, but he wasn't the worst either. We're all going to wish he was still in office soon.
dissing Anita Hill/bringing Calrence Thomas and major corruption to SCOTUS and dissing Kamala Harris w/ horrible portfolio and no visibility (leadership succession planning) and making her campaign MUCH TOO short/tanking it.
Not at all. 37 trillion deficit and economy based on printing money. Trump looked frugal by comparison. Inflation and border lost election. Pretending it didn’t will doom Dems.
Biden interest rates will balloon his spend beyond Trumps in 7-10 years at rates he leaves us with. Funny if trump gets rates down and bails Biden out of his real dollar cost deficit including interest.
Let's all remember that we're the United States of America, with a Constitution and a government meant to be OF the people, BY the people, FOR the people, and we won't let any treasonous crook take it from us.
Biden passes more legislation for the people by the people with the most corrupt GOP resistance; Biden will go down in history as one of the greatest presidents.
Nothing could ever make me not like President Joe Biden. He served his entire adult life in congress, became Vice President, then finally fulfilled his dream to become President. He did a lot of good, history will remember him for that. In between all the bad that came both before and after him.
I’m still angry at the way much of this country has treated him. When Trump takes credit for all of his accomplishments, I’m going to burst a blood vessel.

Never leave America to an autocrat

Pretty disappoint actually.

Love Joe but c'mon man.

Mass slaughter is not really adequate.
And now they have trump to burn down more.
And in the US there will be more mass deportation and suffering, and less opportunity, healthcare, and freedom.
Putin wins. Netanyahu wins.

Why not order the shooting of one DTrump
I want him to investigate and make sure this country is prepared for a fascist takeover.
We didn't hire you for 3 years and 9 months.
White American wouldn’t have had it any other way
Too bad the left forgot this
I’m not happy about it
I think it’s disgusting that so many people will never vote for a woman or a person of color
Fuck you, Biden. 👏👏👏👏👏
dissing Anita Hill/bringing Calrence Thomas and major corruption to SCOTUS and dissing Kamala Harris w/ horrible portfolio and no visibility (leadership succession planning) and making her campaign MUCH TOO short/tanking it.
Now lapping up applause & abandoning democracy.
Great economic president though.
I'm sure that will help a lot when they go hunting democrats door to door, and host fake elections to give the appearance of democracy..🤦♂️
TAKE ACTION YOU FUCKING COWARD!
Biden added half that with all he’s done. Trump was a failure, epic and put the country in debt.
The cult wont talk about his debt because…..Only Bidens. Hypocrites to the max.

I'm crying. Freely admitted.
Let's all remember that we're the United States of America, with a Constitution and a government meant to be OF the people, BY the people, FOR the people, and we won't let any treasonous crook take it from us.
#ThankYouJoe
Thank you Joe! Thank you Mr. President.💙🇺🇸
