How far into 2022 do we have to go until Biden shits himself and it makes the news? I'm betting around June.
That is a tough call. On the one hand, I would say State of the Union because he's going to be up there for 90 minutes during the evening.

On the other hand, Biden would have to do something especially egregious to piss of the media to the point they start proactively humiliate him at such a level.

Right now the media has a lack of ratings and a federal government that seems to have to have the goal of making it harder and harder for the media to carry water for it. Remember WaPo releasing that fact-check article saying "Yes, we really could own artillery as private citizens"? The only people willing to do the mental gymnastics are Snopes, with even CNN throwing half its leadership out.
 
I think dems know the mandates are a losing strategy, people are getting really sick of covid shit.
I've been reading NYT and AP articles for the last week and they've been signaling that is exactly what caused it. You can never truly know who is leaving those comments but the pure unhinged nature of some of them led me to believe that they were authentic. I noticed more than a handful of people who said they had voted D their whole lives who will be sitting out this election because of how blatant the 180 degree turn was made to drop "the science." I saw idiots repeating the same line because in their minds thought it was brilliant, "You might be done with COVID, but COVID is not done with you."

The Democratic base can't help but showing how out of touch they are. Take a look at the responses from this focus group. You really need to read the whole thing, but I'm just going to quote this small portion.

Margie Omero: OK, let’s talk about the federal government. Do folks have examples of something the federal government is doing to address some of these things that people have been talking about?

Mary: I have student parent loans, over $40,000. My daughter has over $165,000. And we have received information saying that they are trying to either lessen them, lower the interest, or actually get rid of some of the balance. That’s the only thing I see the government doing.

Phyllis: I feel like there’s a lot of talk and no action. “Oh, we’re going to do this, we’re going to do that, we’re going to help you this way, we’re going to help you that way.” I just feel like they’re dangling this carrot in front of you, but they’re not letting anybody grab that carrot and eat it.

Laura Reston: Phyllis, you said we hear a lot of talk and no action. This is for everyone: Tell me about a recent time you heard a Democrat who you feel really got it when talking about the economy, who really understood the challenges we’ve been discussing. Is there someone who comes to mind? And if so, what did they say?

Phyllis: Nope.

Mary: Elizabeth Warren can be very down to Earth.

Hannah: Stacey Abrams.

Angel: Bernie.

Bekira: I feel that Joe Biden tricked us. He was saying all the right things. Again, with the student loan, but then his focus became about the Covid, Covid, Covid, Covid.

Mary: Well, I mean, people are dying. By the millions.

Bekira: I lost three people. So I know. But life goes on for the rest of us still here. What’s going to happen once the Covid is settled? He needs to get back to business. My hope was the student loan situation. That’s what got me. And then now it’s like he lied about it.

Justin: I think he meant it. It just hasn’t been able to happen yet.

Laura Reston: So if there was one thing that each of you could ask the Democrats to fix for you or change for you — it can be a small thing. Something that would make your life easier day to day.

Jenny: The first thing that came to mind was, if we could have a fixed gas price. It’s a fantasy I have.

Margie Omero: Would that do it?

Jenny: I don’t know, but I like to fantasize that it would. And if I went to this gas station in this neighborhood, it’s the same price. And if I went to the next state, it’s the same price because gas costs this. Period.

Phyllis: I’m up on that cloud with you.

Justin: I’m afraid to say it. I’m afraid I’ll open up a can of worms, but having a vaccine mandate would help a lot more than it would hurt. We would see the economy getting back to normal.

Bekira: We vaccinate our babies, don’t we? They get their shot, and we cry when they cry. We don’t question what’s in it, right?

Mary: Because we trust science.

Justin: People being vaccinated would solve a lot of problems. Maybe it’s over-simplicity, but I think it’s one of those common sense things that people just aren’t getting for some reason.

Bekira: Because it’s a way to buck the government. Again, we microwave our food, we smoke weed, cigarettes, have unprotected sex, vaccinate our babies, but now we don’t want a shot.

Mary: It gets me crazy.
 
So what would be worse.

Trump is dirty as fuck, and the world wide intelligence complex is so incompetent they couldn't find it despite all the power they wield.

OR

Donald j Trump is the cleanest person on the planet and will be hounded for the entire rest of his life despite being completely innocent.
The reality:
Trump IS Dirty as Fuck, like any other politician/hollywood celeb. But the Alphabet Agencies have been so used to backroom dealings and bribing sillycolon valley and drug cartels to do any actual ops that not only couldn't they find anything about him that would fuck everyone else over - they've found things that make him look BETTER in comparison.

In short, both - at once. With an extra heaping of retard and Trump being the "cleanest" isn't a compliment to him but an insult to everyone else.
 
That still tracks?
Yes on a media level which is what everyone responded with, no on an election level where it actually counts.

"Orange Man Bad" at -best- staunches the hemorrhaging and helps slow their own exsanguination. So best case scenario isn't "We win on this" its "we at least aren't dying as fast!"


Worst case scenario, it reminds people of how it was under Trump and makes them more eager to vote against them.

Why the fuck is this bitch getting herself involved in shit she has no business being involved in? In my lifetime, I've never seen any 1st lady forcefully include herself into everything the President does in office.

Or is the country REALLY being ran by female Jeff Dunham?
Jill was promised (same as Kamala) to be the "Woman behind the man" then found out (same as Kamala....) that she was to be a polite face that did nothing. I mentioned back during the Afghanistan debacle that Jill was clearly making moves to try to assert herself as a major faction.
 
It's almost like they're doing this war solely to get rid of dirt they have in Ukraine or something.....
A dude in our family is planning a family reunion in Florida later this year. Said dude is also in service. If shit pops off in Ukraine, he says he'll most likely get deployed, meaning he won't be able to be there for the family reunion he helped plan. LET'S GO BRANDON! (:_(
Nah, they're aiming to do this war because Russia dropped the dollar as a reserve currency. EVERY country that does that ends up undoing it very quickly, usually after an accident befalls their leader or a war breaks out.
 
Biden said some stuff about the NFL


Biden calls out lack of Black head coaches in NFL in Super Bowl interview

President Joe Biden called out the lack of Black head coaches in the NFL in an interview that aired during the Super Bowl, saying having diverse leaders in the league is a requirement of "generic decency."

As NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell pointed out, Biden said in an interview with NBC News anchor Lester Holt, "they haven't lived up to what they committed to and lived up to being open about hiring more minorities to run teams."

"The whole idea that a league that is made up of so many athletes of color, as well as so diverse, that there’s not enough African American qualified coaches 'to manage these NFL teams,' it just seems to me that it’s a standard that they'd want to live up to," he said. "It’s not a requirement of law, but it’s a requirement, I think, of just some generic decency.”

Diversity in the NFL's coaching roles has long been criticized, particularly in a league made up of mostly minority players. Last year, about 71 percent of NFL players were people of color and only a quarter were white, according to the Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sport at the University of Central Florida. The races of the other 4 percent were unknown.

Only three people of color have head coaching jobs in the league, in which white men hold the majority of the roles.
Former Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores sued the NFL this month alleging racial discrimination in the league's hiring practices.

In 2020, the NFL expanded its “Rooney Rule,” aimed at getting more people of color in the coaching ranks, to require clubs to interview at least two external minority candidates for head coach vacancies.
In the lawsuit, which seeks class-action status, Flores, who is Black, told a story about how he sat through a job interview for a job he knew he wasn’t going to get simply because the team was required to interview minority candidates as part of the Rooney Rule.

Holt asked Biden whether he thinks the NFL, because of its broad influence, should be held to a higher standard when it comes to diversity issues. "I think it should be held to a reasonable standard," Biden said.

Biden made similar comments about racial equality in the league during last year's Super Bowl interview with Westwood One Sports.
Goodell acknowledged last week at a news conference on the state of the league that the NFL has to do better in its hiring of Black and minority coaches.

“We won’t tolerate racism. We won’t tolerate discrimination,” Goodell said. “I found all of the allegations, whether they were based on racism or discrimination or the integrity of our game, all of those to me were very disturbing. They are very serious matters to us on all levels, and we need to make sure we get to the bottom of all of them.”
 
MSNBC gets 20x more views if the word 'trump' is in their title for youtube videos.
The recall vote for newsom went from a sure thing to a 60/40 split due to them rolling out "anyone that votes for recall is a trump supporter."

It still tracks.
It tracks in certain places, like California and the NE which fear the Orange devil. Most others don't care anymore because the gas pump and food prices and shortages are fucking them into the dirt.

Travis Bickle really let himself go after Betsy left him.
...maybe America isnt worth the trouble after all.

So what are the odds of a false false flag? Like a group of "individuals" attacks a russian field hospital or some shit only for Biden to claim its a false flag and shit spirals down from there like its 1914 all over again?
High on either side tbh. If Germany declares Nordstream2 off if Russia invades, the US may do a false flag to trigger the Russians to advance.

The motives on each side are simple, except the US:
Russia wants no Ukrainian NATO branch because of the national security reasons (nukes hitting Moscow within 10 minutes).
Ukraine just wants to be left alone and survive at this point, which is looking worse by the day.
US is very complex. There are theories from forcing Germany to back off on the NORDSTREAM2 pipeline with Russia, making Ukraine join NATO, and posture for sinking poll numbers. All for money, of course.
France and Germany are playing tard wrangler on the situation since Biden keeps shitting himself on messaging, because he wants a war.

Its a shitshow because a dementia ward patient wants a war to save his ass in November.
 
Nah, they're aiming to do this war because Russia dropped the dollar as a reserve currency. EVERY country that does that ends up undoing it very quickly, usually after an accident befalls their leader or a war breaks out.
Russia has an economy smaller than Texas, if they drop the dollar as a reserve currency it is a fart in the wind. Countries go back because the rest of the world wants dollars so you had better have them.

The level of retardation contained in this post is stunning, Russia believes it has the God given right to dominate their neighbors for their own security and everyone else simply has to roll over and take it. Russia's neighbors surprisingly don't agree with this and seek out defensive alliances to protect themselves which Russia then responds to by gaslighting and saying that these are intended to attack them. Yes all those countries that had brutal communist regimes imposed upon them by Russia in the past, and in the case of the Baltic republics and Ukraine being subjugated by Czarist Russia as well are highly distrustful of their larger more powerful neighbor.

The US stands to gain nothing from a war between Ukraine and Russia as it destabilizes the entire region and threatens to expand into a general European war which could involve all of NATO, the US included. A NATO-Russia war has the potential to become a nuclear conflict, even a limited nuclear exchange would result in tens of millions of casualties on BOTH SIDES. Putin genuinely believes it is right to impose his will on Ukraine and have dominion over all Russian speaking peoples in eastern Europe and he isn't going to be stopped with words or sanctions.
 
So what are the odds of a false false flag? Like a group of "individuals" attacks a russian field hospital or some shit only for Biden to claim its a false flag and shit spirals down from there like its 1914 all over again?
If there is going to be a false flag, it won't be over Ukraine/Russia. They'll assassinate Justin Trudeau since Justin has fucked up so badly that he's no longer of use to "them" except as a very much dead martyr to let Biden and Trudeau's party crack down on normies and arrest EVERYONE on the right by blaming them for Trudeau's death.

Which lets Biden kneecap the GOP ahead of November's election by implicating the right in Trudeau's death and give him an excuse to start locking people up that hold office/are normies.
 
The NFL has a rule where they have to interview a Black Coach for the position every time a head coach position is open.
Which is an open joke and has always been an open joke that the NFL instituted for PR purposes. Teams will interview token black people for said jobs but ALWAYS hire white guys. To the point that there have been MULTIPLE times where the team explicitly KNOWS who they want to hire and basically tell the guy up front "we want you but have to pretend to give a shit about affirmative action and interview these _______ because of that stupid rule, so don't get nervous when those interviews make the sport section because we're not going to give those _____ your job!"

On one hand, it does genuinely suck cost of living is increasing on them, but then I get to what they recommend doing and all I see is dumb shit like "We need a woman president."

So, my reaction overall is this is the price they paid for no mean tweets.
 
The level of retardation contained in this post is stunning, Russia believes it has the God given right to dominate their neighbors for their own security and everyone else simply has to roll over and take it.

I dunno, doesn't the US have military bases everywhere? If I was Russia I'd be worried.
