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?

These people really do think the federal government is too big to fail.

 

[CarlosDanger]

I think Georgia is important but I think the key to all of this will be Pennsylvania. The way Demented Joe jumped up and ran to Philadelphia after the audit was announced says a whole lot. That entire speech wasn't someone who was secure in their power or confident they won legitimately. Also remember back to the early afternoon of election day when Biden's campaign chief said they had a way to victory if they lost Pennsylvania and Florida.

They aren't morons, they are somewhat willfully ignorant. The problem with the Laptop is that it isn't easily digestible, and the center generally doesn't care to look deeper. They also tend to not give two fucks about the media.

In the end, what catches the center's attention has to hit a few criteria.
1: It needs to be Easily Digestible.
2: It has to come from sources they like/trust.
3: It has to have a clear connection to someone or something in power.

The laptop failed all three.

Easy digestibility means they can wrap their heads around what it is and what it means on the face of it. "Hunter Biden had a laptop which had some weird business emails that don't totally confirm corruption but probably should be looked into immediately" is not an easily digestible thing. "The democrats stole the election" is, and easy digestibility is what interests them in looking to see if there is fire to the smoke. this leads to;

Sources. Nobody likes or trusts the media. Period. The numbers on that are so low that its an immovable fact. hence why the censorship has moved on to "Desperately try to make it not be seen at all". The center's primary source of info is word of mouth, what people they know are saying. The problem is that it only spreads if criteria 1 is met. So if you fail 1, you fail 2 in the current era. Same for if you succeed in 1.

Connections. This is where the laptop fails the hardest. "But Biden's son isn't Biden" is really the mindset here. And since there was so little properly connecting Biden himself to any of the alleged stuff it just pittered out with interest on the center. A proper investigation likely would have found something, but there wasn't one sooooo. But again, election fraud emphatically meets this. "Biden won because of fraud" is a -direct- connection to the center.

Proof that Biden lied about meeting with Burisma representatives by way of introduction from his son who they were paying before threatening to withhold aid unless a prosecutor prosecuting them was removed should have been easily digestible and would kill any politicians career in normal circumstances.

I was going to post how wrong you were. But I look back at how much I had to type to fully explain the story. You're right that it isn't a one sentence story.

I stand by nothing would have been good enough. He was accused of rape and I had people tell me they could watch him rape a girl with their own two eyes and vote for him the next day. People I considered and still consider moderate and intelligent leftwingers.

I hope you mean this in relation to other, more psychotic left-wingers only, because that is a moral monstrosity that is beyond the pale.

How old were they? Serious question here. Age correlates with the Orange Man Bad thing and likely won't hold -because- its a matter of experience.

That is how bad the bad orange man was even to the moderate left. At least to many of the ones I talked to.

Hum, honestly expected younger. I think you should rethink what "Center left" means.

Sam Harris is the type that came to mind by TDS Center Leftist.

Center left as in what policies they liked. Not how many lines they were willing to cross. Even then, have you considered that the center left was and is now willing to go that far?

If one is willing to accept those kinds of lines being crossed simply to spite the other side, my immediate assumption is that their "policies they liked" are trojan horses for what they actually want. An assumption backed by experience.

Maybe so. I don't think the left is alone on this though. Trump joked about being able to kill a person and people would still vote for him. I'm sure many conservative, even ones I'd consider moderate would extend that to rape as well.

Maybe that just says more about where we are as a country.

He jokes, and maybe there is some truth to that, but it'd be his hardcore supports. Not the center-right.

Bro what isn't "easily digestible" about a picture of a nigga passed out with a crack pipe? That had some IP2-tier shit on it.

And what does that have to do with Joe Biden himself? Why does it matter? "Hunter Biden is a crackhead" is digestible, sure, but why give a fuck? There is a reason there are three criteria there.

You say that but if there wasn't any merit to a politician's kid being a fuckup the media wouldn't have hammered on Trump's kids so damn much. Aside from that though, there's the Burisma shit, texts, etc that came out of that laptop leak that were also "easily digestible".

Anecdotal, sure, but I recently had a talk with someone who voted Biden, and when I brought up the CRT in schools issue they were caught completely unaware and were horrified at the concept. I'd describe them as a "centrist", and I don't begrudge them for voting D other than the fact that they're completely uninformed, which is what I'd describe "the middle voter" in america as - the uninformed voter block. "Centrists" in this country are fucking blind to politics and it's consequences, they just vote for whatever "feels" right. Talk to enough people who vote and it becomes clear.

The burisma stuff is -not- easily digestible. It's a giant clusterfuck of claims, denials, half-truths, lies, and very little in the way of easily broken down and demonstrable information that can be portrayed in a short, easily digestible manner.

And neither am I, as you put it, saying there is not, "any merit to a politician's kid being a fuckup the media wouldn't have hammered on Trump's kids so damn much.". I am saying the center doesn't care because it doesn't meet the base criteria. That was the point of listing the general criteria it takes to get the center to know something. It's about the center, not me.

I'm just disagreeing on the "easily digestible" bit, but you bring to mind the fact that I might just view it as easily digestible because I'm into political stuff. I wasn't disagreeing with the other two criteria you listed though.

You, and many on the right, already had a lot of the information already. Or had it drip-fed to you. Making it neatly digestible and understandable as you gained the info. Drop it all at once, as you'd need to do with those who avoid politics entirely, and it's a whole 'nother matter.

As a bit of an aside, it's actually something that anyone who does politics for a living has to constantly keep in mind. That we, as immersed as we are in it, may take for granted basic facts and knowledge.

That is what makes money laundering and other white collar crimes hard to prosecute. It is a lot of procedural and accounting based fuckery not "we caught person A with person B exchanging cash behind the 7/11."

So Biden Inc, where all of Biden's business deals are done through his brother and son and then funneled to him isn't something that people are going to be able to follow. At least not without a flow chart and power point presentation with bank statements and other supporting evidence.

The media disinformation campaign added extra barriers because now you have to convince people that it was not, in fact, a Russian op designed to discredit Biden but a legitimate news story.

Then again I'm dealing with people that so ingrained in that information environment that it is impossible to extricate them.

McCain was a serious roadblock to anything Trump wanted, and was probably his biggest outright opponent within the aprty. People point at McConnell sometimes, but don't realize McConnell is content being the supreme ruler of the Republicans in the Senate and doesn't actually oppose Trump beyond ensuring that Trump doesn't send the party careening off a cliff. Do keep in mind there was plenty of reason to be highly skeptical of Trump when he got into office, and hell even by the time he left.

Aaaaand with that Biden officially lost Florida. And a pretty good chunk of Texas.

Say hello to a bunch of red votes. Those translators will remember two things: The Democrat president told them to get fucked, and the former Republican President acted to get them to safety.

Georgia has solid evidence -already- Trump actually won it. Arizona is a bit more wishy-washy as the results haven't been revealed and there is still enough haze around the audit itself. Essentially, Georgia is ripe for a news cycle, Arizona isn't, and pushing Georgia now provides counter pressure in Arizona. Win-Win-Win.

The only thing I’ve seen coming out of the Arizona one was that apparently the stated total and the number of ballots the people doing audit found don’t match, which might be a red flag.
