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?

Vaccinated People May Spread the Virus, Though Rarely, C.D.C. Reports - generally NO specifics, and vague language.​

From All Sides you see the slant when talking about Fauci

My conclusion? The vaccinated are ABSOLUTELY spreading the virus to the un-vaccinated.

The fed will pass the buck onto the States to handle stimmies this time around. The red states will say "lol no" while the blue states might do it.

Too bad the Blue states are broke. Remember when California tried to extract taxes out of people who moved out years ago? Or when shoplifting got so bad that it closed chain stores? Or the massive homeless industrial complex and lack of policing? Those states NEED federal funds to cover up their incompetence.

That's why I said they might do. If they have the money to spare.

In all of this, the left and MSM will find a way to blame Trump. But I don't think they can pass the buck this time.

 

[737 MAX Stan Account]

Certainly the Dems have to realize that ordering a second lockdown, federal or not, is essentially a political self-destruct button?

 

[murdered meat bag]

They aren't silent so much as waiting. Nothing recent to go off of. And the extreme antsiness of the prior lockdowns is mostly gone so people aren't feeling as pent up and in need of action.

there's also the inconvient reality that black on black crime is increasing at record rates with low arrests and convictions.

here's one from chicago: https://cwbchicago.com/2021/08/1-sh...-no-witnesses-will-talk-to-police-report.html

there are parents who're too scared their kids are going to be shot as bystanders or mistaken identities or just for the hell of it. we''re talking 90's la, chicago, hartford levels of gun violence in a tiny midwest city.

I think they are trying to nuke DeSantis with this. Might be worth losing a few house seats at worst if it works and the dems will vote blue anyway.

 

[SeniorFuckFace]

I hope DeSantis doesn't fucking cuck out...what a shame that would be.

 

[JohnDoe]

Eventually thats gonna spill over into significant violence. Either the left wins and the nations ceases to exist or the right does, but at the cost of most freedoms.

Everything seems hyper accelerated these days. The Weimar debacle managed to drag on for fifteen years of lawless chaos and poverty before order was restored, if only briefly before the Bolshevik puppets smashed the slave revolt. The American equivalent we seem to be moving into (economic crisis, an impotent/faithless government body, social upheaval and degeneracy thanks to communist influence) may run its course in a much shorter time, easily half if not sooner. The question is not, as you put it, is who will win but rather who would you prefer to win?

Which is preferred to you; a starving communist hellhole torn apart by secret thought police and constant emotional abuse or a right wing pseudo-theocracy ruled by a civil religion and traditionalist social mores? The former is doomed to collapse in balkanization in short, bloody order. The latter might succeed in unifying the entire hemisphere beneath the eagle and the cross.

 

[Gehenna]

So, what do the Dems have to do in order to get a scrap of political capital? Seeing as they wasted all of it dragging Biden across the finish line in 2020.

They've been trying and failing miserably. Remember Schumer wanting to legalize pot? That didn't seem to go anywhere. Nothing is working for them.

I'm guessing Gehanna has a better idea on the situation but generally "no, they can't build political capital."

I think neo-liberalism and neo-cons has run its course and this is just the system flailing to keep power. The Hill of all things pointed out that Kamala Harris's polling numbers are terrible. They are trapped in a corner of their own design.

They don't. I mentioned it before, political capital isn't scrapped together, or generated. You gain it in lump sums when you get elected, with kickbacks from bills, and occasionally through crisis. The infrastructure bill is their attempt to do the middle, but the problem is the red states -hate- it. What is more, kickbacks only work when the other side is at least neutral to you, not passively hostile like -every single red state-. And a crisis? HA! Right now the ghost of General Lee could personally blow up the white house, announce the hanging of every black in America, and qanon as his personal army... and it'd generate nothing.

Something those suggesting a crisis don't realize. You look to your -leaders- to lead you through a crisis. The problem? Not even -democrats- fully believe Joe Biden won legitimately. There is no bump for a crisis here because a minority of America actually views Joe Biden as the leader to lead them -through- a crisis.

I just can't see even the Democrats being this utterly out of touch. They're not approaching this from a position of strength, even the most hubristic fuck has to know it's political and economic suicide. Begging everyone to get vaccinated, labeling everyone who doesn't as murderous Qtards, and mask mandates isn't the best plan but it sure beats the insanity of trying to force more lockdowns.

Certainly the Dems have to realize that ordering a second lockdown, federal or not, is essentially a political self-destruct button?

I mentioned before the twin follies of the Democrats. A mixture of putting everything off until its a problem they cannot ignore and tunnel vision towards their believed solution.

Think of it in those terms, and realize this. The amount they will ignore and the degree the tunnel vision intensifies only get -worse- linearly to the size of the crisis.

Now, think of the size of the crisis, and think of the degree of tunnel vision and willingness to ignore future issues?

They believe that if they manage to gin up political capital through a successful resolution of the "Covid Crisis" they can go ahead and solve everything. They have completely tunnel-visioned to the idea of making the Delta variant the new Satan, 'defeating' it, and -sincerely believe- it will make them lauded as heroes.

Just how retarded is the DNC? this will kill their chances in 22 and 24. The eviction moratoriums are gone, there are still shortages from the last lockdown and the red states are in open legal rebellion over any sort of lock down or mandate.

There's no way. That's close to the dumbest possible thing that they could do. So now I'm sure it'll happen.

So they're going to lockdown the country again while there's a worker shortage and the rent moratorium has expired? Wow that's going to really put a chink into Obama's party, too. Won't they think of the celebs for once?

Certainly the Dems have to realize that ordering a second lockdown, federal or not, is essentially a political self-destruct button?

Don't interrupt your opponent when he's about to make a mistake.

 

[Gehenna]

Don't interrupt your opponent when he's about to commit a massive fuckup.

God himself could tell them it's a bad idea and they'd go through with it in their current state.

 

[SeniorFuckFace]

They have completely tunnel-visioned to the idea of making the Delta variant the new Satan, 'defeating' it, and -sincerely believe- it will make them lauded as heroes.

Do you think they could ramp this up or is this shit just mothefucking DOA?

 

[The Last Stand]

God himself could tell them it's a bad idea and they'd go through with it in their current state.

Their God is George Floyd. Or Biden? Would Floyd be considered a sacrificial lamb? I don't think they have a God, rather THEY are God.

 

[Gehenna]

Do you think they could ramp this up or is this shit just mothefucking DOA?

Its DOA. While I can't speak for the official numbers outside of Wisconsin, the hostility towards basically any covid news crossed the 50% threshold here around the same time the restrictions were initially released. With -just- over half vaccinated, this state seems a pretty good indicator of things to come though, and that indication is basically "If we have to lockdown after getting the jab, we are -done-"

 

[WhatInTheActualFuck]

Their God is George Floyd. Or Biden? Would Floyd be considered a sacrificial lamb? I don't think they have a God, rather THEY are God.

Floyd might not be their god, but they have been known to pray to him.

Pelosi Thanks George Floyd for 'Sacrificing Your Life for Justice' After Verdict

Members of the Congressional Black Caucus said the verdict in the trial of Derek Chauvin was the "first step" in justice being served, but said more needs to...

[Iceland Heavy]

Do you think they could ramp this up or is this shit just mothefucking DOA?

I think it's DOA just off of California's likely trajectory. While I would love Newsom to crater his popularity trying to shove the state back into lockdown, he won't precisely because he's up for recall in a month. He'll stop short of that and really push masks and vaccines which is what I ultimately think the WH will do too. The Covid cultists might cope and seethe about muh delta variant but I don't think the raw fear and uncertainty that led to 12 months to stop the spread is there for more lockdowns.

The noise coming out of multiple sources to Washington by now is that the WH IS pushing lockdowns. Full, complete lockdowns. Its... beyond politically suicidal. But that is the word. And I know my Governor has been trying to gear up language towards it (Wisconsin has a democrat governor).

 

[SeniorFuckFace]

"If we have to lockdown after getting the jab, we are...

...let's say we do lockdown, repercussions?

Or to put it another way, what does it matter if you push the people you have to work with from just frigid to actively fucking hostile? I thinkthey’re badly underestimating the degree to which people are on edge.

They spent the entirety of Biden's admin spreading untested and unvaccinated illegals throughout the country it must be tough to pikachu face over spikes in cases.

Whatever happened to that problem at the border? Oddly it is almost completely out of the media. It is almost like they do not want to talk about what happened to all those people who they were holding while new people continue to flood in or something.
