Even Wapo thinks Biden is a liar. This is just more fluff, but still.

    He got elected president

    Because the alternative was significantly worse.

    and seems to be at the front to run for the democrats again.

    Because the status quo has a higher chance of success. But with that said, I hate it too.

      I disagree, but you don’t see me crying that people make trump look bad. Just because a candidate met the standard of “better than the opposition”, it doesn’t make them worth defending.

      Because the status quo has a higher chance of success. But with that said, I hate it too.

      Higher chance doesn’t mean a guarantee. Maybe if people stopped trying to shut down everything that makes Biden look bad, we could get someone else. Like, what does it matter how important it actually is, let’s boost up every possible hit piece that makes Biden and his family look unfit to hold office. Force him out of politics.

        I’m not defending Biden. I hate him too.

        Higher chance doesn’t mean a guarantee.

        I never said it did?

        I only shut down the stupid shit, the rest I don’t care about.

            Because stupid shit is stupid shit. I care about what is true not “my side”

            If you really want better candidates then help get money out of politics and get some RCV/approval voting going.

                The hatred that comes with conservatism is the reason why it is so unpopular. I suggest you look inward.

              What does truth matter if you can’t accomplish anything? You’d rather just sit there and pat yourself on the back for being the bigger man while while everything you actually want out of politics gets thrown aside by the people willing to do what it takes?

                I’m not alone, nor are my goals impossible.

                everything you actually want out of politics gets thrown aside

                While not all of the candidates I have voted for have succeeded, a number of them have.
