US Joe Biden News Megathread - The Other Biden Derangement Syndrome Thread (with a side order of Fauci Derangement Syndrome)

Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

TIFU by saying FUCK YOU to my mother-in-law after Thanksgiving dinner…

Medikiwis, please verify whether it is actually possible for someone with dementia to "forget to breathe," because that strikes me as pure bullshit.

 

[Oats12345]

Gonna have to disagree with this perspective! That kind of fallacious reasoning is something that can't be falsified, because of how vague being actively controlled opposition by the Democrats is. (Does Trump count because he held up a pride flag once? Depends on if we need to unparty him!) To make matters worse, it ascribes to Democratic omnipotence what should be ascribed to Republican incompetence. Your party leaders making mistakes and not understanding what their base wants is something that can be rectified. The Democrats somehow both being so powerful that they can control party leaders effortlessly and so weak that they can't pass their own legislation cannot be rectified because it inherently cannot be reconciled with reality.

This is why I'm not exactly on the whole "Uniparty" idea. As you said if that was the case Biden would be moving and signing legislation like no tomorrow but he isn't.

You don't need medi shit to know this, this is basic biology, breathing is controlled by the Autonomic nervous system, the things your brain do automatically to keep you alive.

Either the reddit guy was being hyperbolic with the whole "He forgot how to breathe" shit and most likely the father died of old age and multiple failure of the organs.

or it was all a lie, as it is per usual with these reddit stories. I would rather believe 90's LA mansion porn is how real sex works than to give credit to reddit shit.

Medikiwis, please verify whether it is actually possible for someone with dementia to "forget to breathe," because that strikes me as pure bullshit.

In a way, it's possible. The brain is responsible for our ability to co-ordinate swallowing and breathing at the same time. Late stage dementia patients often times lose this ability leading to several aspiration events. Basically the dudes dad most likely choked on his spit and died because it got into his lungs. Or organ failure.

"Uniparty" doesn't mean a monopoly on power, it means that one party has undue influence on the other. Simply having enough unreliable politicians on one side is enough to unbalance things in favor of the other side.

Gehenna's argument seems to be that the Uniparty is breaking down. Not because they're losing control over the Republicans (even though they are in some ways), but because the Democratic party is fracturing along internal lines.

My boss made a bet with me that he believes Biden is going to resign not by health problems, but by a scandal.

Specifically, a sexual harassment scandal.

If Biden continues to fuck up and the spending bill collapses at the senate, I think the democrats and elites will no longer want to see him around.

Nah, they’re ridin’ with Biden through 2024. You MIGHT see them quietly nudging Joe behind the scenes to change his mind on his stated intention to run for a second term, but you wouldn’t see even the hints of that until 2023. They’re not going to rock the boat at all until after the midterms at least.

If it's a purple splash (favoring Red), our Lich King runs again. Same thing if Blue Wave, but that warrants a series of make-ups next year.

I'll just sigh if Ol' Footnote is still in office past 2023. But alas, the idiots here who admit they voted for him refuse to see that nothing is "boring" and "normal" with him.

Pretty much her only appeal is to Tim Pool, and he is not nearly as a big of a whale as he thinks he is. The problem is that reality has a way of messing with lolbertarians and commies.

If Gabbard wasn't known as "surf mommy with the milkers" she'd be nowhere atm. Her policies are actually terrible and everyone on the right that likes her just wants to fuck her.

WHICH IS FINE.

I just wish people would stop pretending she's a good candidate.

 

[silverstacks]

Maybe late, but could someone explain how "Al Gore won"?

Disagree. I'm on the Right, Trump supporter, nationalistic, strong dislike of Identity Politics. I like Tulsi and have no desire to sleep with her. I like her because I've watched interviews and she comes across as sincere, because she torpedoed Kamala Harris quite legitimately, abstained from voting to impeach Trump when the rest of the Dems were in full witch-hunt mode and she went off Establishment script and personally spoke to Assad to engage him in talks and try to help reduce tensions with Syria.

Sure, I likely disagree with her on a number of things economically and perhaps socially, but I don't hate someone because they're Left Wing. My problem is with modern Progressive / Marxist types. If someone's just old school "we can provide public services through high taxes" I'm not going to despise them for it or think they're insincere. My two biggest needs with the US are fixing corruption and not starting more wars. Tulsi ticks those boxes even if I disagree with things further down the list. The only other Dem candidate I can think of who ticked them was the 'White Witch' Marianne Williamson.

Now I grant you her I find attractive.

That is why I put the Uniparty as the fusion of Neo-Libs and Neo-Cons that actively hate their base..and just use the cause to stay in office. The Uniparty doesn't want to Pass Legislation, because if they did they couldn't campaign on that issue anymore.

Not a chance - the PR Disaster that would be covering up Bidens early accusations plus a latter scandal would be a nightmare for the democrats and every news organization implicated. The attack ads alone would be nuclear.

Whether they like it or not, they need him to skate away scott free at this point, less the accumulated shit they've pulled be dragged down into the limelight with him. You'll sooner see accusers develop spontanious supercovid of the brain before being allowed to speak.

What would the legal consequences be if Biden were outed as a sexual harassed though. Would he be removed from office and also impeached hard?

What policies/political positions of Tulsi's do you like and support?

No where did i suggest you have to hate people on the left. I don't think you need to. I guarentee if you looked up what her policies were during her 2020 run you would hate them though. Her being anti-corruption not starting more wars doesn't fix her being anti-2nd amendment and more federal overreach. Or maybe it is to you.

Either way, that attitude is why the Republicans have been ineffectual for the lost part. People see one person on the left who agrees with them on some basic point and suddenly we gotta support them.

Idk if it's battered wife syndrome, or Stockholm, or just a desperate need to be liked or seen as a good person. No matter what it is, it's weird.

 

[CharlesBarkley]

Tulsi seems like an OK moderate despite all the weird hippie cult shit she did before and I wanna be inside her asshole. Sadly, that's better than most presidents we have had in the past 20 years.

Question how is going with Kenosha riots , or Waukesha chimp out really killed the golem and the BLM?

Its a one-two punch, the BLM/ANTIFA golem is typically only brought out and supported in election time when Republicans are in power. The Democrats that control those lunatics don't want them making messes while their guys are in charge, they only want the chaos when an R is charge to give them the devil's choice of doing nothing and looking impotent or doing something and being called a tyrant. (Which is gonna bite them in the balls when a true Populist Right Nationalist calls their bluff, activates the Insurrection Act and has them all shot, but that might be a decade from now.) Currently the Democrats are in power and they do not want anything to rock the very tenuous grasp they have on power and stability, and with the ongoing internal power struggles any riots or destruction on the scale of 2020 could easily spark a massive PR explosion. So all the payments that normally fund the busses and food and every other element of the logistics train has been severed, severely crippling any riots passively, and in Democrat controlled areas they have been actively working to suppress them.

The other part of that punch is the Kenosha Kid - aside from Biden's current failure, that little creampuff was a massive splash of cold demotivation. He doesn't look like a big scary fascist ubermensch that could and would crack skulls open. Instead this kid is smol and chubby, even with a rifle he looks like a harmless puppy. Easy prey, the favorite of the crybully types that make up the SJW/BLM/Antifa brigade.
Except that he wasn't easy prey at all. When backed up against a wall he did not bend, he did not beg, he did not kneel. He fought, and killed two, maimed another, and will not apologize. They never expected anyone to fight back, they never contemplated one of them might die, and they never, ever thought it would be a cream puff like Kyle that pulled the trigger.
If a soft faced little cherub like him will fight and kill for no reason other than a sense of naïve civic duty, then it begs the question. What will hardened men with families and children to protect do? How far can they push before the fatal snapback? Or, as a meme or two might put it:

So the BLM/ANTIFA mobs don't have any money, they don't have a supply train, their establishment allies have abandoned them, and their lives are obviously and demonstrably on the line for maiming or death to do what? Secure the rule of a senile old man that they must know, even if they won't admit it to themselves, is absolutely failing at every level of governance. It was all fun and games when there were no consequences, when they had powerful friends, before their blood was spilled and bodies put in the ground. Their morale is shattered from the foundation.

 

[Lorne Armstrong]

What would the legal consequences be if Biden were outed as a sexual harassed though. Would he be removed from office and also impeached hard?

None, because he’d never be “outed”. It just wouldn’t be reported on, discussion of it online would be censored, the accuser would be unpersoned, and it’s back to regular programming.

 

[mandatorylurk]

Con Inc. in full force. I feel this sense of the GOPe seeing how strong the polls are and are now trying to push out the MAGA people in various places as a test to see if they can try the tried and true "vote for the GOP/watch this shitty show because the other side is so bad."

 

[Drag-on Knight 91873]

That's a problem with the DNC's primary system. In the primaries, you have to say the most insane things imaginable to "energize the base", which means whoever wins the primaries then has to dial back hard when the actual presidential race is on. It makes it completely impossible to tell what their real opinions are.

As for Tulsi herself, I'm sure she's a reasonably pragmatic lady. Which means she's likely to change her proposals depending on her position. Opportunistic? Yes, absolutely. Welcome to politics.

I would say the opposite, actually; she wasn't opportunistic enough. If she was dead certain that sensible Leftists were her niche audience and what the Dems are actually composed of, she would have had talked like a 90s Dem, but just slightly to the Left of Trump (e.g. regulated immigration without the Wall, Medi-Cal like services instead of full-blown public health insurance, slightly tighter gun control, etc.). The fact that she didn't and melted into the background meant either there aren't that many Blue Dogs and sensible Leftists in the party to get her to critical mass or she was just playing by the rules of the primary that you've stated and only in it to do some petty sniping.

I believe the former is the case, given how California is filled with NIMBYs and joggers.
