[CrippleThreat]

They called me a madman.

Hopefully AOC doesn't beat him the primaries when HER time cones.

 

[Feline Supremacist]

Pence is gonna smite a ho.

What's up with that hairline? is she going bald from all the chemical hair straighteners to make her look less black?

 

[Humble Shitpost Merchant]

I don't think tonight was a win for Biden, simply because nobody out there is actually praising anything that Joe said. This definitely wasn't like the 2012 Debates with Paul Ryan, where everyone kept gushing about how he made Ryan look like a clown. At most, from the left you get proclamations that the debates were a shitshow, or else condemnation of statements Trump made instead of praise for anything Biden said. They didn't want a civil, moderate, Joe Biden. They wanted a Joe Biden that could humiliate Trump and make him look weak and stupid.

Biden walking back from his police reform rhetoric and the Green New Deal was a mistake, and it will cost him more enthusiasm from the progressive wing that he is supposed to court.

 

[JambledUpWords]

Bootyjudge / Milky Mommy is looking like it would have been the optimal ticket.

Sadly, the DNC has been in a battle with progressives, who believe Tulsi and Bootyjudge are secret Republicans. Additionally, the DNC doesn’t seem to allow for new blood to ascend to presidential candidates. Had the DNC been more willing to take a chance on them, they’d probably be swaying independents and some Republicans.

 

[Doctor of Autism]

In hindsight, I think Bootyjudge would have been the easy pick of the shitty bunch. Boring Generic D robot who would be unflappable vs. Trump, his responsibility shtick would have been optimal with the riot hatred now, lack of experience wouldn't be relevant, gay is down the list of Social Justice shit currently so it wouldn't be as damaging, would have done slightly better in the Midwest which has become the battleground. I'd honestly think he'd beat Trump now.

I am convinced now that the only candidates who could've defeated Trump from the Democrat party were Mayor Pete, Tulsi, and Yang since Bernie probably would've had a worse chance compared to Biden since Bernie is unhinged and his supporters are visibly more violent.

Out of all the candidates, Gabbard and Buttgey were probably the best options to go against Trump. Pete however has a problem like Marco/ Hillary where he is too robotic and comes off as focus grouped.

Gabbard would have carried the simp vote by 90 points. Probably men by 10+ points. Her having good policies also helps.

Not a single one of those US politicians are heads of state you delusional commie. Also I don't remember Trump using those during a Presidential debate but Shillary is indeed a cunt so had he called her one my point still stands because the bitch was never President of anything in her grifting life.

Tell me, since when did being the President of the United States ever mean that you are entitled to respect, ever? People have shat all over every president in history. Obama got shat on, Bush got shat on HARD, Clinton got shat on, Regan, Carter, Ford, all of them got guff, but suddenly Trump is someone who can never be insulted or called the forbidden c***n word?

The technicality you're trying to get on makes no sense. A good amount of those people held high positions of political power, are they not entitled to respect either? Only SPECIFICALLY the President is entitled to respect?

The only people who ever say "you need to respect the President of the United States" are partisans who would be singing a different tune if it were a President from the opposing party. Would you demand Obama or Bill Clinton be respected and clutch your pearls when they were insulted? No one has to respect shit, this is America, it's not illegal to not like the president or talk ill of them.

I hated Hillary with a passion back in 2016 and even before, and despite her holding more power in the world than any of us on the forum do, I'm allowed to insult her as much as I want. Even if she won the presidency I'd still mock her stupid ass, and you would too. No president is entitled to respect or free of scrutiny.

Edit: Hell, Trump insulted the fuck out of Obama too before even running for president, gonna pearl clutch about that too?

 

[Tomboy Respecter]

lol okay so suddenly insults matter now?
If you think that's harrowing, you better latch on to those pearls HARD, they may fall off when you hear

Though, Trump never used the forbidden C word ever. Y'know, C***n. Based Trump would never say such a naughty unforgivable slur.

Insults matter when a core part of your canpaign is to bring decency, unity and sanity back to America yet when you are flustered, you do the exact opposite. Even Hillary Clinton was smart enough not to fall for Trump’s aggressive style in 2016.

 

[Bland Crumbs]

I wouldn't say it's that personal since Hunter is a weirdo who has closed shady business deals because of a famous vice president dad and they based an impeachment off of that. Probably could say the same about the Trumpkins but I think they would've ran some headlines by now. The cokehead thing was pretty low, though, even if it's true.

Hunter is definitely an addict. Most recently(like a year and I believe it is still on going) he is the defendant in a paternity suit filed by a stripper who he smoked crack with...

I think the details of Hunter's departure from the military cannot be released to the public but it is entirely possible that Trump got his hands on the info.

It was a low blow though the lowest would have been asking Joe why his son has ties to human traffickers.

Spoiler: Hunter is a fucking scumbag who dated his brother's widow

Hunter Biden allegedly sent “thousands of dollars” to people who appear to be involved in the sex industry, according to Wednesday’s report released by Senate Republicans.

The report claims unspecified records show that Biden “has sent funds to non-resident alien women in the United States who are citizens of Russia and Ukraine and who have subsequently wired funds they have received from Hunter Biden to individuals located in Russia and Ukraine.”

“The records also note that some of these transactions are linked to what ‘appears to be an Eastern European prostitution or human trafficking ring.’ ”

The allegations are contained in a footnote to a section of the report that details potential “criminal concerns and extortion threats” involving Hunter Biden and other members of the Biden family.

The report also cites “extensive public reporting concerning Hunter Biden’s alleged involvement with prostitution services.”

“Records on file with the Committees do not directly confirm or refute these individual reports,” the report says.

“However, they do confirm that Hunter Biden sent thousands of dollars to individuals who have either: 1) been involved in transactions consistent with possible human trafficking; 2) an association with the adult entertainment industry; or 3) potential association with prostitution.”

Last year, The Post exclusively revealed that a woman who was suing Biden for paternity in Arkansas was a former stripper at a Washington, DC, club that he frequented around the time he was dating the widow of his late brother, former Delaware Attorney General Beau Biden.

In January, Arkansas Circuit Judge Holly Meyer ruled Biden was the “biological and legal father” of the baby born to Lunden Alexis Roberts in August 2018.

DNA test results showed “with near scientific certainty” that Biden sired the kid, Meyer noted.

Roberts filed her suit in May 2019, the same month that Biden married his second wife, Melissa Cohen Biden, just six days after they started dating.

Melissa gave birth to their son in March, Page Six was the first to reveal.

Biden also has three daughters, who are in their late teens and 20s, from his first marriage.

Neither Hunter Biden’s lawyer nor his dad’s campaign responded to requests for comment, although a campaign spokesman earlier accused Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Chairman Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), whose staffers helped prepare the report, of “diverting” attention from President Trump’s “catastrophically botched” handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.

That said I really do not think Trump won anything by bringing Hunter up in this debate. He forced it in and that made it look sleazy which ya know...Trump.

That aside I think Hunter is in deep deep trouble and Joe is probably connected. I have wondered quite a bit about why he is running when he is so clearly unwell. I think he either thinks the office will protect him or the DNC would protect him if he let them shove their hand up his ass and use him as a ventriloquist dummy.

 

[Bunny Tracks]

I honestly don't care if Biden's kids do and/or did drugs. It's not like Trump's don't either. That doesn't matter. What matters is the candidates' policies, and shit. Not what their fucking kids do.

youre missing the point entirely.

The point is that hunter biden is getting quid pro quo from his corrupt daddy.

Politics is a reality TV show, you're asking too much if you want the focus to be back on policies rather than personalities. Especially in this climate.

 

[GuntPunt]

Also, sorry for the doublepost, but Babylon Bee is the greatest satire site and the fact that it is run by hardcore Christians with an incredible sense of humor is truly an "act of God" in itself.

Double standards, if you remember 2016 Trump was getting shit on for everything (“Drumph”, Cheeto, etc) but the second you insulted Hillary or called her names they’d reprimand you. Hell, I had blood relatives do this.

I only think Trump brought up Hunter being a druggie and general shady person because it is directly tied into the impeachment sham. If Hunter Biden were above board, then he wouldn’t be embezzling funds from Ukranian energy companies and using them as a bargaining chip for sanctions via his VP father

It fucking matters if your dumbass politicians try to set up an impeachment on the basis of the kid.
It matters if it was ongoing for 3 years.
It matters a fuckton since we had to fucking pay for that shit, in time, money, and attention.

I'm not paying for Biden being a shitty enabler of a parent, much less paying because he's a shitty enabler of a President.

 

[Astro Galactic Megalul]

Damn, it was hilarious when Trump pointed how Biden always wears a mask, even when it doesn't make any sense to do so
"He could be speaking 200 ft away from everyone, he shows up with biggest mask I've ever seen"

 

[Tomboy Respecter]

And Trump's kids aren't?

No. If they did, it would be international fucking news for one and it would be blatantly illegal. This is the same media that shits on Trump’s kids for indirectly benefitting from Trump’s presidency. Only God knows what would happen if they had an actual conflict of interest take place (which would be rightfully reported on truthfully.)
