George Walker Bush, William Jefferson Clinton, and Donald John Trump were all born in 1946. When Trump was elected in 2016, it marked the first time in history that a single birth year produced three different Presidents.

chomo joe is older than all three of them, having been born on November 20, 1942, when Stalingrad was being heavily contested between the Krauts and Russkies. If he wasn't frauded in, there would have almost certainly never been a Silent Generation 'President'

chomo joe is also older than both Al Gore (1947) and John Kerry (1943). He is old enough to have had a phone call with Richard Milhous Nixon in late 1972 (when Nixon won Delaware and all other states aside from Massachusetts) after chomo joe's wife Neilia Hunter died in a car crash along with their daughter, which injured both little Hunter Biden and Beau Biden in the car. Nixon consoled chomo joe in that phone call. chomo joe went on to be re-elected every six years since then, including in Reagan landslide 1984 (Reagan won Delaware and all other states aside from Minnesota) which was for his third term after he already served 12 years in the Senate.

When the USSR fell in 1991, chomo joe had already been in the Senate for over 18 years and had run for President in 1988 only to disgracefully suspend his campaign after plagiarizing British politician Neil Kinnock, another old figure who recently appeared on the news during the recent UK election and made many Brits say "that bloke's still alive??"

note: chomo joe was only 29 years old when he was first elected to the United States Senate in 1972, old enough to qualify because he would turn 30 on November 20, before being sworn in on January. He was facing someone named Caleb Boggs, an old man according to 29 year old chomo joe who was in his 60s.

>But Biden, who repeatedly called Boggs a "helluva nice guy," continued to covertly hint at his opponent's supposed fragility. Biden told the press he noticed Boggs "has lost that twinkle in his eyes" because he "doesn't really want to run again." He also floated a rumor that Boggs would retire after two years if he were reelected.

>Beyond differences of opinion, Biden's campaign played on the physical differences between the 29-year-old challenger and the 62-year-old senator.

note: chomo joe turned 62 in November 20 2004; he ran for President in 2008, at American retirement age of 65; Obama thought he was too old to run in 2016 and said he would lose the primaries badly to Hilldawg if he tried, and he probably would've lost the primaries to Hilldawg, maybe coming in third behind Bernie

battlebox is the coolest thing Biden has said in his entire life. It’s beyond me why they don’t lean into it

To put it rather plainly; they hate America. It sounds like tripe hyperbole, but they do. Liberals hate the idea and history of America outside of faggot hollywood nonsense. Liberals who have never been to Europe, even before it was flooded with niggers and hajis, have a wildly skewed image of the continent and it's countries but that's what they want. They're precisely the bland white people they say we are, eschewing the various sub-cultures, accents, vernacular, etc.

Battlebox™ is our word now.

His school has said that they have no record of him ever trying out for the varsity shooting team. This comment came from a kid who went to school with him and said he was bullied. Maybe that kid didn't like him or is misremembering, but there are no records of it as far as we know.

He did join a range and was practicing regularly for a year prior to this, so there's that. He was also planning to attend school in the fall, so this wasn't something big-brained ahead of time he'd been working on long term.

In his car, they found explosives, and from all accounts, it looks like he came to attack the crowd, not Trump directly. I don't think he ever thought he'd have a chance to take the shot he did. He just got lucky; history turns on a dime. Always has, always will. Our pattern-seeking brains always want to find things, always want to believe something is in control, instead of a bunch of uncoordinated assholes and one lucky psychopath climbing a ladder that was left out like a red carpet of death waiting for him.

I will say it's still sus because it's extremely convenient to lock up all the avenues of attack except one, and on that one time they purposefully left it open a random gunman with no record and no way to predict he'd show up happened to not only show up but notice and take advantage of the security vulnerability, but 'he was planning to bring terror to the crowd and just took a chance he saw' is also a reasonable conclusion. Like I said, I'm not 100% sold on the conspiracy angle, I'm just very suspicious of it because of what we know so far.

It goes without saying that I simply don't believe this was pure, otherwise innocent incompetence from the USSS. Even if Thomas was a random dude, the security gap and lax behavior was definitely intentional somewhere up the chain of command. For me, it is beyond belief of simple incompetence,

I find I am incredibly apathetic here. Yes on the principles I should oppose it... I am just finding it hard to -care-. They have done this so long to the right that I think the schadenfreude of it is about equal tot he moral indignation. So its just.... nothing.

I very explicitly warned the people around me, very liberal progressive people, that doing this kind of out of legal censorship will come to bite them in the ass if (and when) a conservative government comes to power.

Now exactly what I have said would happen has happened, and I only feel amusement.

On some level, that's probably why they fear a "threat to democracy" like trump. A democracy should be able to handle one bad president, but they have been busy poking so many holes into the constitution of america, that they fear getting rawdogged by their own leaky condom. Trump needs to do nothing but use the rules on them for a change.

I’m sick of political entanglement everywhere.

I don’t give a fuck about Ben & Jerry’s opinion on the Middle East. I don’t care about Tractor’s supply view on climate change. I couldn’t care less if Chic-Fil-A has a stance on gay marriage.

Likewise, i don’t care if the cashier at Walmart posts neo-nazi memes or calls for forced vaccinations online.

I just don’t give a shit. Are they doing something illegal? No? Then are they doing their job. That’s all I care about. I wish we got to a place where corporations stopped giving a shit about everything but their product and didn’t feel the need to have DEI or socjus shit in the first place. I HAVE A DREAM where individuals don’t have to care about the shitposts of the person selling them ice cream or chicken sandwiches.

I’d love to see these toxic policies and HR/DEI departments defanged and dismantled. And maybe this will help. I just assumed it’d be like a snake. You’d have to cut off the head - the toxic leadership and cultural makers that make this shit possible. Otherwise, they’ll just get a quieter but just as toxic tyrant leading the HR department. which in some ways is even worse.

Could I be wrong? Yeah. Would it feel good to watch some of these petty tyrants fall from grace and lose everything? Definitely.

But either way, I’ll just sit and watch it play out with the rest.

I agree, but these people are the reason we have to constantly walk on eggshells in the first place. I’m not going to feel any sympathy when the people who have spent the last decade trying to sabotage others’ livelihoods for having the wrong political opinions suddenly say “well golly gee, maybe this cancel culture thing ISN’T so good after all” once it’s happening to them. If anything, I welcome the possibility that they’ll get even a taste of what they’ve put everyone else through.

I just noticed that Trump looks different

He first appearance at the convention was clear as day that something is different and it wasn't his suit. The way he walked and carried himself was different than any entrance I've seen Trump make. His responses are also different.

He seems a little softer but not in a bad way.

You're right, it's a two way street. I only hold this view for people who don't know when to punch out of work. Those who advertise that they're a Google employee in bio or make TikToks while at work. If you're doing that, you've made it your identity and bought into the 24/7 waggie lifestyle. On the other hand, I do feel sympathy if people go after your job when you haven't associated with your employer on social media. Most people forget they have that public DoxxedIn they've never used untill it's two late.

The point isn't that it's a two way street. The point is that they made having a job shittier for everyone, naively thinking they could skirt around it by just holding the right opinions.

I will never forgive those faggots for effectively ending being able to punch out from work and be your own person.

Didn't Pelosi force a bunch of nastygirls to sit in an abandoned car park in freezing temperatures eating expired and rotting MREs around the "insurrection" of Jan 6th? I vaugely remember that.

The idea that the Secret Service division protecting the President would fucking go "nah fam if it's hot go take a break inside we got this" is absurd on it's face.

Yup, them nasty girls had to sit in a parking garage and the illegals had all the hotels.

Here's a story. Power Level time.
I worked in a place called camp bucca Iraq when I went in 2008. It was a military prison. The government shutdown and we weren't allowed to go get food from the chow hall but still we're required to work.
We didn't get paid, didn't get our food rations.
3 weeks it was like this.

And some of you people have the audacity to think that because someone is hot they will let them go inside?


Imagine guarding a prison, outside no shade, in the desert in 120f dry heat, that's hot enough to burn your hands immediately if you accidentally touch a rock around noon and you're told at the end of 12-18 hour day you're not getting paid, getting your food rations, or allowed to quit.

Fuck every single one of you who believe they give 2 shits about your health.
