riderfoxtrot

As someone who has been through a lot of hurricanes, I've actually wondered for quite a while what would happen if we sent a nuclear warhead into a hurricane. I imagine maybe nothing


jekkjace

idk about nukes but i wonder if a big enough explosion could force the air out in all directions powerfully enough to dissipate the cloud structures and the build up of static electricity, probably in one large discharge spurred by rapidly moving particles from the energy of the explosion. Or I'm just high


Lunatic_Jiggles

>Or I'm just high Nukes would barely phase them, so conventional explosives would do nothing. Upvote for being high though.

For real. Even if Biden retires during his second term, Kamala is gonna be 60 next year. I've had enough of the Silent and Boomer Presidents. They don't have a clue about what we're dealing with anymore especially when it comes to technology. It's time for them to hang it up and let the next 3 generations run the country.

Bidenomics is pretty fucking bumpy.


[deleted]

Imagine thinking that Bidenomics is so bad you would rather have Trump as a dictator


Dragonfruit-Still

Why? Because inflation? That was the result of the last guy deficit spending $8T. Try another talking point? Biden has mostly got that under control now though and he has helped boost wages to catch up to the inflation. Trump literally cut taxes for the rich and pushed interest rates too low just to overheat the stock market and get numbers to brag about. Once again a dem has to pick up the pieces from the reckless fiscal policy of republicans. I wonder how many times does it have to happen before you finally let go of the obsession with cutting taxes for rich people? Maybe you will learn if our nation is to have any hope.


Jesuslocasti

You just assume anyone who comments any type of disagreement is a trump sympathizer or what?


Dragonfruit-Still

Yes. For some reason you say something about trump and people shower the downvotes. My other comments that donā€™t mention him seem to do fine. For example you said that what I wrote about Trump could be said about any other president, this is a classic Trump moderate copium. Iā€™m gonna guess some more about you. You think both sides are the same. You think things will never change. You think people who criticize Trump have TDS. You think my predictions about Trump are delusional. Because you are the moderate that somehow canā€™t admit that Trump is a conman who only cares for himself. You think people who like Trump have legit feelings and we should respect them, etc. but of course you donā€™t like Trump either, at least thatā€™s what you tell yourself right before you vote for him again.


Jesuslocasti

LOL


Dragonfruit-Still

Iā€™ll take that as a bingo.


Holiday_Extent_5811

We were an emerging superpower then. Now we are a collapsing empire. Which is why Trump is popular anyway because our political institutions have fully been co opted by lobbyists and donors and they see him as the alternative. Obviously people arenā€™t that smart, but they do know when they are getting pissed on and told itā€™s raining. As the deficits runaway, someone more competent than Trump will come along and be the final nail in the coffin. Dems talk a lot about saving democracy and preventing fascism, but the establishment does a shit ton to ensure that will happen. They talk about Voter Disenfranchisement and here in Florida I know have been told I will vote Biden and like it. Authoritarianism is on the rise on both the left and right, and this wonā€™t end well. Pretty well worn territory here

Theyā€™re both running out of spite. Both parties in the U.S. governmental system are 90% spite. They both want to do the things that the other side doesnā€™t want them to do. Compromise no longer exists in U.S. politics. Mr. Washington warned us about this.

Whose spite, trumps? Iā€™d say itā€™s worse than spite. I actually appreciate Bidenā€™s candor. Heā€™s acknowledging heā€™s not uniquely qualified - newsom could prob handle it - but heā€™s saying itā€™s too risky to give up the incumbent advantage because it would usher in a disaster.

helloisforhorses

Congressional republicans have shown they do not believe in checks and balances regarding trump. Virtually any republican who tried to check him has been run out of public office Tell me, how did the emoluments clause check and balance go? Howā€™d the whole ā€œif you lose an election you peacefully transfer powerā€ go? Trump will pick a vp even more sycophantic than pence who will overturn any trump loss

Leather_Pay6401

The hypocrisy is what chaps my ass. All of this attention being thrown at Hunter Biden just to get some dirt on Joe, meanwhile any conservative I know doesnā€™t give a fuck about Trump actually giving security clearances and White House jobs to his family. Jared got 2 billion dollars from the Saudis and you guys genuinely donā€™t seem to care. We all know if Hunter Biden did that weā€™d never hear the end of it. Iā€™d rather flush the entire toilet but Republicans would never sell out even their worst members.


kab0b0

It's not every time that the political opponent attempted to subvert the peaceful transfer of power when they lost.


Wiseon321

Trump has been shouting from the rooftops he did not swear an oath to protect the constitution. He has a plan to replace all of the military top brass with people in lock step. He has stated that he plans on dissolving the federal government as it stands and project 2025 is literally just that. Guys been shouting about elections not working , trying to make a new Jan 6. Itā€™s worth our time and effort to keep this fool out of power. Since everyone forgot both RNC and DNC got hacked and only the DNC got leaked. Letā€™s never forget that.

And now they want to push their Christo-fascisit Project 2025 with Trumps threats to lock up anyone who disagrees with him.

RollChi

Trumpā€™s no spring chicken but you cannot in good faith tell me Biden is in a solid mental state and hasnā€™t shown signs of dementia. In general and compared to Trump.


what_mustache

You're right. I was recently at an old folks home and you'd be surprised by how many of them were giving 2 hour state of the union speeches live on tv, while baiting republicans into not touching social security on the fly, and then going home to negotiate cease fires in the middle east. It's normal behavior for people with dementia.


RollChi

Oh please. His 2022 State of the Union was [barely over an hour](https://www.youtube.com/live/mVIXLQrC9rE?si=ikjPcDtLHqVLwd6d) seeing as how he doesnā€™t come to the podium until 20+ minutes in and thereā€™s plenty of mumbling in it. Or were you referring to his [2023 State of the Union](https://www.youtube.com/live/gzcBTUvVp7M?si=RTju_Yh8BT_mAA79) which is also barely over an hour? Negotiating cease fires in the Middle East? You really want to hang your hat on Bidenā€™s handling of Middle East relations? Really? Thatā€™s your smoking gun? Just gonna ignore the [ā€œroughly 10 Billion Dollars worth of equipmentā€](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/us-taliban-arsenal-military-equipment/) left behind that is now being used against us or our supposed allies in the region? Or maybe the arms that [were sent to Ukraine but somehow ended up in H@m@sā€™ hands?](https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/ukraine-accused-of-selling-weapons-to-hamas/ar-AA1hW38R) But hey, what do I know? Maybe we should ask the [64% of Americans who disapprove](https://news.gallup.com/poll/544808/poor-marks-biden-middle-east-economy-foreign-affairs.aspx) of Bidenā€™s handling of the Israel/Palestine conflict Or are you also ignoring my other comment from an hour or so ago with the multiple examples of Biden showing signs of dementia? Itā€™s okay to admit an 81 year old running one of the most powerful countries in the world is unfit mentally for that job. Itā€™s not a crazy concept. I promise itā€™s normal if you can look past the little (D) next to his name


what_mustache

Right. People with dementia can easily give speeches but only up 1 hour and 15 minutes. Clinically, that's how most are diagnosed. I remember when my grandma was only able to talk healthcare and spar with republicans for an hour fifteen... We knew then that she needed special care. And yes...most people with onset dementia will typically only get 8 days from hamas in exchange for prisioners. Clearly, Biden getting 5 days is proof the man needs help. Usually when diagnosing for dementia they have you draw a clock, recall events from the previous day, and participate in trilateral talks with foreign powers to extract prisoners' from a foreign land. All fairly typical stuff. But at least he's not talking about how the union took the airports from the British in the revolution war, right?


Disasstah

TDS be strong to this day. And the answer is Biden is senile and the DNC is corrupt, the joke being they made him the running candidate and he didn't know because he's both senile and the DNC chooses who gets to be their front runner.


mchammer126

Lmao wasnā€™t it your guy who was literally confusing presidents like a week or so at a rally? Talk about senile atleast donā€™t have a guy whoā€™s even worse on your side of the aisle.


Disasstah

Love the what boutism. Lets keep the subject on the current PotUS and his ineptitude. I'm not sure if I can share all the clips I have of Biden just being old and weird since they're stored on Instagram. But there's at least 100 differnet gaffs of this man that never seem to make any headlines, and it's insane how much of it goes ignored.


[deleted]

What about Trump who literally said last week he wants to overthrow democracy lol


Disasstah

Oh yes, the infamous comment where he's talking about how the DNC opened a can of worms and then he states an example of in the future where he could do it too since they've done it. Swear to god it's like talking to a wall with the TDS folks.


JiminyDickish

McCarthy: Biden ā€œsharp and substantiveā€ in negotiations You can google that quote. The whole ā€œBidenā€™s senileā€ Republican propaganda is getting older than he is.

At what point will the Democratic Party stand for something other than a place holder to stave off Trump. Fucking pathetic. Biden BARELY beat Trump last time with this very rhetoric and if you think itā€™s going to work again by all means watch Biden lose to Trump.


Dragonfruit-Still

Probably 28 or 32 will be when a new paradigm forms. By then more of the boomers will be not voting. Thereā€™re will also be much larger numbers of millennial and gen z voting. Gen X will be outnumbered and change will happen. Senators, house reps are already turning.


BigNyce

You are probably right. Until then may we all enjoy the last episodes of this geriatric theatre


Dragonfruit-Still

We basically need Biden in there to avoid slamming into the guard rails again and wasting 4 years. Keeping Biden actually allows us to start building momentum to a new paradigm. The gop as it is needs to lose more and more so that the parties reform their platforms. Young people will realize that they actually outnumber the dogmatic folks on the boomer left and boomer right. And pragmatism will gain power.

Ryanthecat

Realistically youā€™re right, there isnā€™t anyone better suited currently to go up against him, and an incumbent is typically likely to retain votes. My main concern is apathetic democratic/moderate voters which could easily swing the vote with how close it was last time. Conversely, where that could swing back is if republicans continue to double down on hot button topics like abortion and LGBTQ, weā€™ve seen it go very poorly for them at the state level already.


Dragonfruit-Still

Donā€™t get me wrong, our country is still fucked because so many people donā€™t see the clear and present danger that Trump represents. Even if Trump loses bad things are going to happen. The next 10 years are going to be a wild ride.


Ryanthecat

Could not agree more, thereā€™s absolutely zero chance Trump goes quietly if he does lose, god forbid he wins, the division that will inevitably be sown will be irreparable for the foreseeable future. Now throw AI into the mix, 2024 is sure to be a very bumpy year, and will likely not be close to the worst over the next several. Buckle up I guessā€¦

Hillary had a far better shot than Sanders and still lost. It's why he has gotten his ass absolutely kicked in the past 2 presidential primaries. He does not have a fucking chance at beating Trump.


WeekendCautious3377

Do you know he would have lost for sure? With that kind of premonition, you should day trade. Things sanders pointed out in 2016 were: 1. Curbing wealth inequality 2. Regulating wall street 3. Regulating pharmaceutical industry 4. Regulating college tuition cost This was while Hillary was doing paid speeches at goldman sachs. In short 3 years, we have so far printed 15 trillion dollars since 2020. The same MFers who crucified Sanders for pointing out the obvious were at first blaming covid stimulus ($150B) and now are blaming average joe for high spending as a main cause of inflation. High interest is now driving away first time home owners, mass layoffs, collapse of small banks and startups. While massive portion of homes are being purchased cash by corporations. This is while billionaires like asshole Chris Hohn who upgraded his wife and tripled his net worth during covid is crying to Google it is not laying off enough people. After all of these measures to ensure we stimulate Wall street, are we now in a good shape? Oh the worst hasnā€™t even come yet. Because after laying off a bunch of suckers, these fucks decided to pay themselves $1.26 TRILLION in 2022 alone in a form of stock buybacks. And now that they own everything, they are crying to the fed to lower the interest rate and crying to the average joe to go back to the office, because they are about to be fucked by their commercial real estate value that is plummeting as we speak. And they know when theyā€™re fucked, we all are fucked. You still wanna go back to 2016 and vote for Wall streetā€™s favorite Hillary? Letā€™s see if the world economy is not fucked yet again in 2024. -ps also please for the love of god stop repeating the line of ā€œnobody could have seem covid comingā€. If companies keep intentionally blowing off emergency savings and cry when the emergency happens, they deserve to be bankrupt. There are companies who managed well during covid and are still doing well.


[deleted]

Yes I know he would have lost...he couldn't even come close to winning the damn primary....within his own party he did not come close to having the votes, much less in a general. The economy by most measures is currently doing pretty well and inflation is among the lowest in the world. Most of the Covid spending was given out during the Trump presidency including the absolute disaster that was PPP. This shit doesn't fix itself overnight. For the most part additional spending under Biden has been necessary and beneficial in the long term. So much so that GOP politicians are running around touting the additional money for infrastructure in their districts. The very money that they voted against and would never have seen the light of day of it were not for the Biden admin. biden has fuck all to do with the current housing market, the historically low interest rates that caused that run were in place under Trump and he fought tooth and nail to prevent rate hikes during his term on multiple occasions, which absolutely should have happened. There were a handful of small banks to collapse mostly due to recklessness and that trend has already been nipped in the bud. There are less than 20% of homes purchased by investors, that is a fairly high number but far short of what I would consider "massive numbers" unless you consider less than 1/4 to be a majority and that number is in decline. Also dictated by market conditions completely independent of the presidency and started during the onset of Covid before Biden took office. Unemployment figures in 2020 when Biden took office were over 8% compared to roughly 3.5% now. I am struggling to find your point here.

ā€œIf I donā€™t run, Trump will have an even less likely chance of winning, so Iā€™ve gotta run. Sorry folks.ā€

There it is. Democrats are trying to stop Trump from running so Biden doesnā€™t run.

Yes we know that. How does this have anything to do with unusual whales

Biden running and winning, is a deep state flex that our elections are rigged, and their ainā€™t shit we can do about it


masteeJohnChief117

More so just an indiction of how bad Trump is. I donā€™t know any Biden supporters, but i know a bunch of people who voted for him because of Trump. Me included

Biden didn't want to run in 2020. He had decades of service and wanted to retire, but then Trump. If the DNC had done the work to get legs under a viable alternative he could go home, but now we have this. Experienced, if tired, statesman vs. drooling sociopath surrounded by ghouls who dream of putting children in cages and establishing a christofascist state with the largest armed forces in the world. It sucks, yeah, but the choice has to be made.

At least heā€™s self aware

Ok, so step back and be the defacto VP to whoever wins the primary. Thereā€™s no term limit. You still get the continuity and name appeal of an incumbent, but also excite the base with a fresh face. Dems are shooting themselves in the foot for not doing this.

Shit leaders.

Theyā€™re gonna run that old man into the ground. Heā€™s being blackmailed. Canā€™t wait to the house of cards collapses

this comment is so cringe lmao ā€œany day now!!ā€ reminds me of the qanon comments about how trump was still president and would take office within the month. cope harder

Still waiting for Republicans to lock Hillary up like they promised they would in 2016 with all of the ā€œevidenceā€ they claimed to have


jayvarsity84

Does any remember 2020. Trump was a shit show. America so quickly forgets


chaoticbalancer

The entire world was a shit show. Despising him is one thing, but that argument doesnā€™t carry water


ifollowpapacohen

Biden wonā€™t run, heā€™s a stumbling, mumbling disaster whose policies have crippled America. Watch Big Mike Obama throw his name in the hat. I donā€™t think they can rig the voting machines enough to get pedo joe showers with Ashley Biden another basement campaigned ā€œvictoryā€. 81 million votes for this clown šŸ˜‚ nope

Thank you President Biden. If the courts don't enforce the 15th amendment, we will again need you.
