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?

Mentally he's still in the era where places like this don't exist and recordings of shit he's said will only ever reach people if the MSM allows it.

I wouldn’t be surprised if in the future forums, and not just this one, will be targeted for this reason. If Joe Biden loses many will think it’s because they didn’t go far enough, just like what happened with Hillary in 2016.

I didn't say anything because I don't want to be labeled a doomer, but it's one of the things that worries me about this election. Can't have (mostly) rational people freely sharing information and having (mostly) unmoderated discourse, goes against the programming and The Narrative™.

 

[Malodorous Merkin]

Obama's Biden support has been pathetic. You can tell he does not believe anything he is saying in the least and does not really care. He got paid. He just wants to be done. Hillary was supposed to win and he could go ride off into the sunset and collect his pension. Maybe make a few appearances here or there but largely be done and have decades to try to wash the filth off.

It could not be any clearer that Obama hates the fuck out of Joe's guts.

He could hardly be bothered to lift a finger for Joe until it was obvious that Joe's campaign was crashing, and "Muh legacy!" needed to be protected from four more years of the bad Orange Man dismantling it.

He's probably mad about Joe throwing him under the bus at least twice in the last debate.

It's hilarious because the cult of Obama loved portraying the two of them as super BFF's 4 life for the longest time.

/pol/ was pretty good in 2016 but it definitely went to shit afterwards. If KF became known for unmitigated political discourse and hosting important leaks, it would be a target for infiltration and astroturfing in exactly the same way. We're not there yet, but it's looming.

Politically speaking it's been going full steam ahead since 2014 for the progressive agenda.

Ah yes, 2014. GAAAAAAAAMERGAAAAAAAAATE!!!!!!

That one picture of Obama hugging Hillary is one of the most cursed pictures in existence, knowing how much those two fucking loathe each other.

Joe Biden says he's Kamala's running mate.

Obama comes off more like the kid who resents having to play with the sped kid because his parents are friends with the sped's parents.

 

[The Littlest Shitlord]

Trump fills a stadium everywhere he goes and there's clearly less than 100 people there for Biden.

And don't give me that crap that it's just Democrats wanting to not spread Covid. If this pandemic happened during the Obama years then Obama would have filled Baseball stadiums with each guest sitting 6 feet apart, assuming that they wouldn't just break the COVID rules because "It's just a flu bro."

The social distancing is just a cope to pretend that Biden apathy isn't sky high.

If they had actual voters Joe might risk being exposed to a question they don't know how he'll answer. Doing it this way lets them pretend that Joe isn't too sick to president: "See? He is too campaigning!" In other words, it's just a continuation of their media-centric strategy; the actual events and the handful of people they reach are unimportant, only the media reports that they are taking place matter.

As a kitchen table he learned? Next he's going to tell us that as a young boy he dreamed of being a baseball.

 

[Orange Man Costume]

Is...is it weird that I felt enraged when he kept making such childish references? Was I sperging? Has the man degraded this much?

Might be them trying to target the youth vote who are staying home atm.

1. Hillary was despised. Biden is not.
2. Trump has 4 years of slander under his belt
3. Huge early voting turnout

Among other things. Trump can still win, but it's a longshot

But on the other hand, people were actually excited to vote for Hillary. As despised as she was by many, Hillary had real enthusiasm behind her campaign and people were really banking on the "First Whamyn in the White House" thing. There were marches to show support for her. With Biden there seems to be no real enthusiasm for the guy. The online rallying cry for the Dem candidate this time wasn't "Hope and Change" or "Stronger Together" or even "Build Back Better", it was "Vote Blue no Matter Who".

And Trump now has 4 years of work to show under his belt as well. People who didn't vote for him or voted for Hillary before because "Better the devil you know." now know how Trump rolls and might vote for him. Being the incumbent usually helps with the chances of being reelected, unless you fuck up massively. It also helps the Democratic party has gone off the deep end in the four last years and done it's best to embrace the fringe elements of it while pushing others away from them.

I don't know enough about the early voting to offer an opinion on it, but it could go either way.

Not saying Trump has it in the bag by any means. The opposition has become fiercer, but Trump has more advantages now than he had in 2016 too.

Most Presidents largely hated their Veeps. FDR kept Harry Truman stonewalled and out of the loop on WW2 until he died suddenly. They didn’t tell Harry for 2 or 3 days. Eisenhower despised Nixon. Kennedy hated and feared Johnson. Reagan largely ignored Bush I as an idiot. Bush understandably viewed Dan Quayle as a retard. Obama pretty clearly views Biden the same way.

I cannot imagine Clinton enjoyed Gore at all. That wet stick in the mud and his censorious wife probably made Clinton's skin crawl.

People keep making a mistake. You can not compare this year to 2016, because of the power of incumbency. It’s a very different election cycle and dynamics. Yet the polls aren’t reflecting that. They are polling as if this is an open seat in the Oval Office. This is one of the reasons the polling feels fake this year. It seems to be ignoring long standing political dynamics. Ones that would not change, even in the age of Orange Man Bad.

One of my favorites is probably Andrew Jackson and John C. Calhoun, Jackson hated Calhoun with every fiber of his being. When Calhoun sided with South Carolina during the Nullification Crisis, Jackson reportedly told Calhoun "John C. Calhoun if you secede from my nation I shall secede your head from the rest of your body" and after his time in office ended Jackson was asked if he had any regrets and he said "I have but two, that I didn't shoot Henry Clay and that I didn't hang John C. Calhoun".
