Indeed, Joe Biden did this on purpose, but he doesn’t feel a strong need for credit for doing so. His personal accomplishments toward healing the USA are all the reward he seeks or needs.

I drove to Danbury Federal Correctional Center this morning I tend on protesting Bannon’s release press conference. Shy of 8AM, I found a crown of supporters and some media. But the prison had released him at 3 AM as they wanted to avoid press. As I walked to the place with his mostly support base, a woman rolled down her car window and asked what was happening and I told her that he was being released and she immediately say, “Oh good. Finally.”
I thought way did she automatically feel Bannon was a good guy. Why? He is evil through and through. But I had tho interpret why MAGAs are who they are. And I reflected that they just don’t like that JBiden (SNL) is blamed for allowing millions to rush over hit sand awhile he ignored it for 2 to 3 years. Yes he did sorry for you not to believe this. And I humbly pray that this doesn’t doom Harris candidacy. It’s a nail biter.
For anyone interested, I side word is that Steve Bannon will hold a press conference at 3 PM in Manhattan at the Lowe’s Regency. Someone from News Max told me. Go protest. I couldn’t make it, unfortunately.
If not for that monster's millions of supporters, who are as much to blame for his rise and should be shamed. Supporting the orange a-hole required extreme rationalization.
You are leaving out a very important factor.These millions of ordinary citizen Trump supporters have been courted for the past 40+ years by GOP cynical power grabbers who don't give a damn about anything except lowest taxes and no regulations. They skillfully played on the sense of "being left out" and "not heard" by politicians in "the swamp" that these mostly working class people were feeling. These folks were also soaked in 14 seasons of (FREE to Trump) TV propaganda, pushing him as a savvy businessman who "speaks his mind" and 'says it like it is" as he calls out over and over, "You're fired!"
I've met some of these folks, decent people. One cafe owner in Shamokin, PA, about as red as you can get, told me about a mentally ill customer who was screaming out that he was Satan. She gently spoke with him about being a child of God so he couldn't be Satan. He calmed down and ate the breakfast she provided for him. She's voting for Trump because he's "a good business man who isn't one of those career politicians. He tells it like it is and we need that. And he's not going to give all our money to foreign countries when we need so much right here." She drank the kool-aid and bought the lies, because that's all she's heard. She shouldn't be shamed, she should be wooed, educated, shown. Or at the very least, outnumbered as we work to find every single persuadable voter and tell our story. It's going to take more than one election. And it will be worth it.
But is running a government like running a business? And don't we have important relations with other countries? We trade a lot of things back and forth. And we count on them when military support is needed. They do us important favors. Etc.
No, a democratic government is not a business; it is a service that protects everyones rights equally as much as possible, and protects it's people from attacks. A kleptocracy is not a business either; it's just piracy, theft. A business is when the owner and the client agree on a mutually beneficial price.
Ah Harvey, when one of them said recently, Jesus is wrong, we know that they are arrogant beyond the pale and unreachable. The word shame is not in their vocabulary. I was at lunch with friends yesterday and one of them reported that her female neighbor left her a pamphlet about how Harris will hurt social security and medicare. She said she has never had a sign, but got a Harris sign that this neighbor can see everyday as they are across the street from each other. Everything death star will do is being attributed to Harris. The other person lives in the country and has a neighbor who allow her to ride her ATV and have her dogs along on his property, so she says nothing to this Trumper. She described him as looking for an argument, so a know-it-all.
What does that say about those who follow him? What does it say about the education of our citizenry?
Jenn, in reality, I do not believe that "Trump is the engineer of this train". The ones who are...are terrifying to me. JD Vance is the "excited little baby boy" in tow who was never taught that most people can still figure out the difference between a lie and the truth.....he is just doing as he is told by the "big boys".
He would rather "sell his soul" to be a part of the "gang" than to protect the people of the United States of America!
"Baby Vance" also recognizes that "Big Daddy Trump" is daily loosing pieces of his mind. What an opportunity to "run with the big dogs".
Chris, I’m another outside-the-US voice with the same opinion of Biden, but I’ll go beyond simply honoring his accomplishments. He may not end up ranked as the best POTUS in American history, but I think he’s right up there. That said, I’ll dance for joy on the day America gives Harris a chance to do even better.
Martin Luther King Jr. had a great answer to the question of why people like us are interested in US politics, along with the question in your profile (why should YOUR problems be OUR problems as well?), in his letter from Birmingham City Jail, where he wrote, “We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.” In 2024, it is literally impossible to face that inconvenient truth and then vote Republican.
Trump wants to enslave Middle-class people and below especially people of color to do the labor with no rights like Russia. Where you have one class of people ruling this country like Elon Musk.
In the end, Joe Biden is going to be one of America’s best loved and respected presidents. Running your mouth is no substitute for taking action and getting things done.
Yes. He is a superior human being. Given to excellent foresight. I was furious when he was being denigrated after the DT debate. He had so much on his plate that these critics had no clue about, like hostage negotiations.

This is how he appears to us in the outside world, too. Trump? Foghorn Leghorn #2.
Foghorn Leghorn is a rooster. The orange traitor is a chicken.
OMG that is PERFECT!
As much as Trump and MAGA wear me down, LFAA folks lift me up!

If I were in that part of the country … Gad, Bannon. The Creep du Jour from MAGA. Sigh.
Right?
😂
BINGO!!!!
cluck, cluck!
Celeste - you are denigrating Joyce's chickens (Civil Discourse)!!
Oh, Maggie, silly!!! I love Joyce's chickens!
I figured you would get the point!!!
Roosters are male chickens, so same thing!
I’m so happy to hear there are those outside USA who “get” Joe Biden.
On average, I feel very proud of him, while
we are so embarrassed by the orange shame.

I hope we GET this election right! Yes, there’ll be more work to be done, but we must get this one right

The cafe owner sounds like a decent person. Trump would have had the customer thrown out. Trump's business record is not as good as MAGA thinks it is.
Good businessmen don't go bankrupt over and over as a style of business.

Same here, in Portugal.
Problem is, they don’t vote. We need people HERE to ‘get’ him
Foghorn Leghorn was smarter than Trump.
JennSH from NC,
What does that say about those who follow him? What does it say about the education of our citizenry?

"I say, I say, that boy's about as sharp as a bowling ball!"
LOL. I'd say that one of his thighs, lightly roasted with a bit of garlic, would be smarter than Trump.
Best dressed too.

Well said, James

Ha ha! We'll see.

And who could ever forget Senator Jack S. Phogbound? There's no Jack S. like our Jack S." !
And Jubilation T Cornpone.
I didn’t read Li’l Abner, so I didn’t get this at first. Then I said it aloud. Ha! Clever.
Al Capp saw Donald Trump coming but probably never saw him becoming president. If he did, he was too clever to say it in print.
But WE need his accomplishments to be known, or how else can we keep going in that direction … ?
Yes. He is a superior human being. Given to excellent foresight. I was furious when he was being denigrated after the DT debate. He had so much on his plate that these critics had no clue about, like hostage negotiations.
And that’s the truth💪🇺🇸
