    Didn’t Biden call the dude and enemy of the state on a few occasions?

    Impeachment… Colluding with enemies of the state…

    I’m being facetious of course, I’d rather they break the tradition of trying to impeach every president on their way out the door, but still, how you gonna have a meeting with someone you yourself called an enemy of the state?

      Because he knows Trump is going to Trump and refuse to work with him. Biden’s perspective= win win and shows the orange broke dumb shit is all smoke and mirrors.

          Anyone paying attention has known that for decades. When Biden eulogized Strom Thurmond, he certainly didn’t do it out of a dislike for fascists.

            Since he collaborated on genociding Palestinians by bypassing Congress to ensure Israel got more weapons.

            Now he’s trying collaborate on a fascist anti-refugee border deal with the fascists and their fascist leader.

            Like???

              If you’re not voting, why haven’t you done something already to stop him?

              What would make me think that with your track record of doing nothing in the past, that you would start now?

                  And what did he accomplish for the broader left, except eliminate somebody who could have been participating in direct action?

                    The Arab Spring was started by a self-immolation in Tunisia. If there’s any form of protest that matters, this is it.

                    It also showed the people struggling on the ground in Gaza that we aren’t all heartless monsters in the West, which is why PFLP and Hamas both came out in support. That matters.

                    It’s also an inspiration to all of us and an indictment of our own cowardice. How can we sit at home too afraid to act when someone else can do something so awe inspiring? It’s humbling, and we need to be humbled.

                    What the fuck have you done?

        I think that’s a little too advanced for Biden, but it wouldn’t surprise me that hear a staffer suggested exactly that… Don’t think much of Biden, but the current white house is doing damned well IMHO.

        I do sincerely hope trump opts out. None of his fan base is going to be affected in the slightest either way, because cult, but trump will think he’s god gift for participating, and his head is already way too fucking big.

      The GOP as a whole is actively antagonistic with America. But you have to work with them if you want to get anything done.
