@GottaLaff I'm neither sad nor disappointed. Biden may be old, he may stumble given his stutter, but everything he said was the truth. Everything he said was the truth, everything. Each bragadocious statement from Trump was a glorified lie.
The reason we have VPs is in the event of a death or failure in the Oval Office, and Kamala Harris is perfect capable of carrying us forward. If he felt he was completely incapable, he would step aside. That's the man he is.
#Solnit π―: "Much has been said about the age of the candidates, but maybe itβs the corporate media whose senility is most dangerous to us. Their insistence on proceeding as though things are pretty much what theyβve always been, on normalizing the appalling and outrageous, on using false equivalencies and bothsiderism to make themselves look fair and reasonable, on turning politics into horseraces and personality contests, is aiding the destruction of the United States."

The #debate was all about #TFG's 50 LIES because that's how CNN intentionally framed it.
Pres Biden was a truth teller & has a stellar record.
Amplify the facts from the #BidenHarris campaign that delineates the 50 lies that TFG told:
@ScottSoCal Right??? What do they think trump will do? He'd probably ENCOURAGE the extermination of Gazans π₯Ί
feel the same
IMO the people making these Biden-blaming posts *know* it would be even worse with Trump, they simply don't care
for some, pretending Gaza is somehow Biden's fault makes it easier to look in the mirror than just admitting they're happy to usher in fascism if they think it will lower their taxes
straight up MAGAs don't need an excuse to vote for fascism, but for those who won't admit even to themselves that money is their god, GOP crafts a different kind of lie
@ScottSoCal The fact is, Trump has already said heβd blast Gaza out of existence, so it would absolutely not be better with him. He and Bibi are two peas in a pod.
I'm going nuts with all the posts I'm seeing about Biden and Gaza.
Yes, I hate what's happening in Gaza.
Yes, Biden is president.
No, there's nothing he can legally do to stop it. He can encourage Bibi to stop slaughtering people - and he is. He can delay shipments of weapons - and he is. He can't violate US law or signed treaties. He's not a dictator, here or in Israel. He can't just do whatever he wants.
And, seriously - how would ANY of this be better with Trump?!?!?
I really want people to understand.
Joe Biden wants to forgive unfair student debt. He keeps trying to do what he set out to do. These effers are still trying to stop him.
Judges are elected or appointed by your elected officials. You see how important it is to not just vote for President, but Representatives, Senators, and every single local office.
Missouri, Kansas judges temporarily halt much of President Biden's student debt forgiveness plan |

During the #Euro2024 #Ukraine versus Belgium match, fans displayed a banner with the portrait of Nazariy Hryntsevich, codenamed "Hrienka," a fallen soldier and #football fan. The image was generated by artificial intelligence from the photos of 182 fallen Ukrainian soldiers, who, in civilian life, were part of fan movements supporting Ukrainian clubs.
