    Biden had one (1) job. And that was to save the union from fascism. He misunderstood, appointed Merrick Fucking Sit On His Hands Garland because of vibes or some shit, and then fucked around. Now we are all finding out what it is like to live under fascism. Thanks Biden!

      Yeah. Fuck him.

      Insofar as the president is, by nature, a flawed and pressured human being, I generally try to make allowances for poor decision-making, outdated thinking, and political maneuvering (requiring even speech to be measured and often untruthful about intent or feeling - if not outright lies about the facts) both around the electorate and elected officials. It would be unfair to expect miracles of even the best men, much less mediocre compromise candidates of the sort which generally succeed in American politics.

      But Biden made a series of unforced errors, and by what became increasingly obvious as immense hubris rather than simple miscalculation. He very well may have lost American democracy (or what amount of democracy we had) to a fascist demagogue, and a remarkably stupid and incoherent fascist demagogue even by the already-low-standards of that job, and it’s very conceivable that even unfucking ONE of Biden’s many mistakes could have made all the difference in preventing that cretin, considering the closeness of the election.

      Fuck Biden. His name is mud.

      Garland would have been on the Supreme Court if not for Trump, it was thought Garland would come after Trump for revenge over it…

      I’m pretty sure they wanted Trump to run again because they still, for some ungodly reason, thought they’d have an easy win against him in 2024.
