Biden says damage Trump has done to Social Security is 'breathtaking'
Former President Joe Biden said Tuesday that the amount of damage the Trump administration has done to Social Security is "breathtaking."
Thanks for everything Joe!
Hey at least the one and only time he went low and broke decorum was so he could pardon his own son. And the other 1200 people a week later when he realized how bad the optics were.
And just to get ahead of those people. I'm not necessarily mad he pardoned his son. I'm mad there only time he broke decorum was for his own personal interests and not the American people's.
That's what makes me mad, too. That and the genocide.
You should have had him arrested when you still had presidential immunity, Joe.
Technically the SCOTUS gave immunity for official acts only.
Official acts being clearly outlined as up to the sole discretion of...
wait for it...
The SCOTUS.
They said it was to be determined by a lower court. It was sent back to a lower court and Trump was convicted. But the judge ruled that no penalty should be applied because of the SCOTUS ruling on presidential immmunity and it was up to the DOJ to prosecute. The DOJ is under direct presidential control and by then Trump was in power.
SCOTUS could have prosecuted Trump directly, but as always, they deliberately slow walked it so the case would disappear. Which is exactly what they are going to do with all the current cases.
His handlers told him to sit and wait until it was Donnie's turn to make them money so that's what he did.
On one hand, he's not wrong.
On the other hand, he can fuck off. He had internal polling showing him losing in a landslide and he still hung on for far too long afterwards, sabotaging efforts to build a winning campaign by the eventual nominee. Biden is the man who lost the fucking republic through his vanity and hubris.
Biden is the guy that was given the biggest stick in history, and then just meekly handed over to one of the worst bullies in history.
Fuck. Joe. Biden.
Yeah, when the SC hands you unlimited power while a fascist dictator is waiting for his second chance at office... You use that fucking power.
One official act during the debate and you could have prevented all this Joe.
It didn't even have to be official. He's old enough he would have died of old age before seeing jail time.
Yeah dude, and I'm sure "he was going to win and build concentration camps within 3 months, I swear!" would totally have been a sufficient explanation for everyone.
People on this site are so fucking dumb, I swear.
Maybe the people on social security should stop voting for rapists/terrorists/felons/morons...?
Drumpf said he didn't care about you. He SAID IT. Yet you still voted for him because you're a stupid PoS. 🤷♀️
Yeah but men wearing skirts makes them feel uncomfortable so killing minorities is sadly more important than a functioning society.
Interesting, so how did they feel when Elon did the "Roman salute"? Romans basically walked around in skirts as well...
Ah well, I think reason left the US long ago.
I've been told since it's not ok the books as a law it's just words and we should feel and think he doesn't care about anyone.
Yeah but who are you going to believe?
The guy who said it
Or the guy on Facebook who said he didn't mean it?
I don't think anyone wants to hear from Biden at this point. He by all accounts did his level best to put his ego ahead of the good of the people of the country which did nothing but help further Trump's talking points.
I want him out there speaking at events, raising money for the campaign trail. They're off to a great start, honestly, it's only April 2025 and they're consistently making nationwide news.
I voted for Harris, I would have voted for Biden again, and I think anybody who doesn't see the logic in that is incredibly foolish and just in general a disappointment.
Trump would be out of our lives now and forever if enough people understood what was at stake.
Fuck you, Biden. You got us here. YOU did breathtaking damage to the republic, because you and the rest of the non-fascist politicians were so unforgivably out of touch that you lost the fucking republic. Please die and save us your bloviating idiocy.
Millions of DNC voters who didn't turn in a ballot got us here.
Two things can be true at the same time.
Yes: the people who were so fucking sick of the status quo that they refused to vote do carry a large share of the blame here.
But the DNC is ABSOLUTELY guilty of perpetuating that caustic status quo in the face of clear public desire for change, because they were mostly too interested in the money machine they were a part of.
No shit. Fuck off joe, you didn't do shit to stop it,
Couldn’t have done it without you, Joe.
Joe had nothing to do with it lol. There was always a “not Trump” option.
The supreme court made him a king. He had every right and ability to prevent ALL OF THIS, and he just whined his way out of office.
Joe could have lit a fire under his AG’s ass and gotten this fuck in jail before he could win the election.
Biden is the only person to defeat the Orange Turd so don’t go to rough on him.
He BARELY scraped a victory against the most unpopular incumbent since Ford pardoned Nixon, if not ever. He won the popular vote by a smaller percentage than Hillary did when she lost the EC.
He ABSOLUTELY does not deserve credit for barely passing the lowest possible bar and then digging a hole under it for Harris to fall into.
It's quite literally Biden & Garland's fault that Trump is not currently in prison.
No shit, Joe! Your insistence on holding into power when it was clear that's not what the people wanted enabled this. Your legacy will forever be tarnished by your inability to accept reality before it was too late.
Nonetheless, the problem lies in the system. If 1/3 is for, 1/3 is against, and 1/3 don't vote, there's something wrong. And there is, and a specific party has been doing voter supression for a decade and more. Why has this been allowed?
Enjoy your Alzheimer's genocide Joe.
Still? Fucking really? Supporting Palestine is now fucking thought crime, and you're still saying genocide Joe not genocide Donny? Gtfo.
Trump being worse doesn't mean Biden didn't back a genocide. He deserves all the hate and more for being such a monster
Who cares what that guy thinks? He's a distant memory.
Wasn't he he some kind of politician?
Like a councilor maybe sometime during the Vietnam War?
I think he was some ice cream mascot they canned for sniffing kids or something.
Who cares what you think?
Just me and my partner.
It will be destroyed just like the rest of the government. Putin’s agent has been given control of our country by MAGAts and their supporters.
I sometimes think about what would have happened if Biden stood up to the DNC bosses in 2016 and ran in the primary. He probably couldn’t do much against the Clinton machine, but maybe just enough to make it more competitive. Divide the corporate Dem vote just enough…
I can think of many better words for this sentence
I don't hold Orwell in high regard, but this take seemed too inhumane and idiotic even for him. And it is, he actually never said this.
It's takes like this that lead people to conclude that Americans deserved 9/11 for what their government did in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, etc etc up to Iraq in the gulf war. Or that Israelis deserved October 7th for what their government did during the nakba, sabra and shatila, etc etc. Americans did not deserve 9/11, Israelis did not deserve October 7th. They are not complicit in the crimes of their rulers. Especially when you operate in a two party system where both parties are completely and utterly beholden to billionaires.
Especially when you operate in a two party system where both parties are completely and utterly beholden to billionaires.
Whose fault is that? I'd say that is on the shoulders of the American people.
There must be better words to describe this, joe. Try again
No. Don't try again, Joe. Why don't you go outside, and play Hide and Go Fuck Yourself instead?
He must watch Seinfeld
I wish he could be treated like every other long winded short sighted senior, and be medicated and sat in the reclining bed. He has nothing helpful to add.
I wish he could be treated like every other long winded short sighted felon, and be in a prison.
I mean, good. 65+ are all over his bullshit.
It's not that direct if they die off before the fund starts running into the negatives. They'll blame the most recent democratic president anyway.
Says the guy from the party who made decisions that led to Trump getting elected.
He didn’t seem too worried in this clip
This comment section is truly something else, when all your rights are stripped away and the US descends further into fascism are you going to continue to blame the Democrats or realise the choice to vote against Trump was also an option?
Tough decision I know vote for the status quo where everyone was still relatively comfortable and all had rights or not vote and let the fascists in and watch all your rights get stripped.
Edit: The leopards are feasting on those that voted for Trump as well as those that did not vote at all.
Biden gave us Trump. Blame his ego.
The south gave us Trump, the south and their pure racist hatred.
You're blaming the opposition party for the holocaust, blame the monsters who voted for Hitler instead.
Nah, I blame those that did not vote. Given how load Trumps campaign was in their rhetoric means if you did not vote at all is just as good as voting for him. Democrats messaging my ass, atop blaming others when the non-voters need to look at themselves and ask themselves why did they allow this to happen when it was well within their power and right to stop it.
Fuck off.
the status quo where everyone was still relatively comfortable
This statement is so out of touch. People voted for Trump over the Democrats because they were struggling to make ends meet in an economy where a huge amount of the populace is a missed paycheck away from having to choose between being evicted from their homes or feeding their family. The cost of living continues to rise on a monthly basis and the Democrats' response was to tell us we had the best economy in the world. They believed Trump when he said he'd fix it over Harris when she said she wouldn't distance herself from Biden's agenda.
In hindsight, things can always get worse and we can see now that they have. But six months ago people were not comfortable but rather desperate and the Dems were unwilling to take radical action when Trump promised he would.
Ew, yuck, Joe Biden. STFU, you piece of shit. Trump is President now because of you.
To be accurate he said “tahdmagentsosecurahsbnbrethtnahnah”, and this was transcribed by interpreters.
“Cofefve”
If Biden really wanted to help the country and reaffirm any semblance of a rule of law he'd fly himself to the Hague and accept responsibility for the genocide and war crimes he abetted.
Anything short of that is just more self indulgent ego tripping on his part. Buy the ticket, Joe. You either support the rule of law or you dont. At long last, would you please pick one.
