    I don’t disagree with anything you said about Biden’s past, but that doesn’t put him categorically anywhere near Trump.

    I want a world where Biden represents the Right party I hate. But right now, he’s representing the only party that isn’t making a goal hurting people I love. There are dead people I care about that would be alive if Trump had lost to Hillary in 2016. There are living people I love that would be dead or hurt if Trump had won in 2020. So I call that a marginal victory.

    Have you not experienced that? If not, you’re either lucky or isolated or ignorant of causes of things. If so, then how can you let those you love suffer without being angrier at the cause than the guy who is just “not that great”?

    My problem isn’t people saying Biden is bad. My problem is people saying he’s as bad as Trump. As a president, he is absolutely fucking not.

      The Democrats are a far-right party by international standards.

      But right now, he’s representing the only party that isn’t making a goal hurting people I love.

      I guess we’ll downgrade the mass murder charges to mass manslaughter since the Democrats don’t explicitly state that they want to commit genocide, even if their policies always result in genocide.

      There are dead people I care about that would be alive if Trump had lost to Hillary in 2016.

      100% probability Hilldawg would have killed as many or more people than Trump did. They just would have been overseas or in amerikkka’s internal colonies—out of sight, in other words, so liberals like yourself wouldn’t have to worry about them. “Fascism is okay as long as it doesn’t negatively impact me.” More people have also died of covid under Biden compared to Trump (specifically because of Biden’s anti-vaxx, anti-mask policies), while the proxy war Biden started in Ukraine has resulted in hundreds of thousands of needless deaths.

      My problem isn’t people saying Biden is bad. My problem is people saying he’s as bad as Trump. As a president, he is absolutely fucking not.

      Without doing research, name a specific policy passed by Biden or the Democrats since January 2021 which has improved your material life.
