I mean, you'd think the total inability to hide Biden and Trumps' cognitive dysfunction, caught on camera many, many times over the last few years, and now live and in color, would be enough to get people to stop pretending that there's a good option here. Hell, Biden's handlers have been caught on camera making sure he doesn't wander off, like they had for Feinstein before she died.
But then again, Americans have watched the gradual, but now inevitable, slide into fascism over the last 40 years and managed to convince themselves that all is well, provided the guy enabling it is wearing their preferred jersey, so I guess we'll just chill and let Biden and Trumps' unelected handlers rule the country.
It's too bad you all didn't vote for Williamson in the primary. It's been clear neither of these two assholes are fit for a long time, just like it was clear Feinstein wasn't fit when she was falling asleep in hearings.
The people guiding Biden at least have an interest in keeping the united states functional. The people guiding Trump want to watch it burn.
No they don't.
They have an interest in keeping themselves rich, consequences be damned.
They're the same picture
No, no they don't. Those people jumped ship after Jan 6. The only people left backing Trump are the insane religious cultists and racists that want to turn the country into a theocracy and purge anyone not white, straight and Christian.
... for their corporate sponsors, who's interests slightly align with yours.
Biden’s people have an interest in keeping their jobs for the next 4 years, let’s be real here.
And this is the best point to make right here. Well said.
What I don't understand about the handlers thing is that when I watch other famous people walking and talking: I see their handlers steer them, give them signals, whisper names in their ear. And you know what? Celebrities in their prime look awkward all the time. People who have nothing to worry about but their craft and being famous screw up all the time.
Yeah, but those people don't have the power to destroy the entire world when their brain short-circuits.
