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?

personally, I really hope that the cries of ORANGE MAN BAD keep ringing after every failed proposal from this administration. seriously, the smartest thing they could've done after getting into office is just pretend Trump never existed and never reference him again. but now, by constantly referring to him while every proposal of theirs goes down the drain, all they'll manage to do is convince everyone he's some kind of mastermind whose mere mention is a curse and should deffo win 2024 as opposed to the Biden admin just being insanely incompetent. then again, the latter is to be expected of a gaggle of idiots that genuinely believe in CRT.

Now, imagine having to report on every bank account in the entire freaking country with a balance of a meager $600.

Pretty sure I have never had less than that in an account in my life. Even as a baby, I had more savings in an account than that.

I also don't quite understand how this wouldn't just justify people withdrawing their money and putting it in a hole in the ground, thus creating a bigger problem for banks. I mean, you don't have to worry about "seasoning" your cash if your community exclusively deals in cash, which would become more common as people try to get around IRS rules.

Hell, this would probably bring bartering back.

Yes. They'll track every purchase:

* Kevin Gibes
* Momokun
* Wedgedick
* Neck
* Riley
* Colt Seidman
* Fire
* Kjell and Pajeet
* BRADLEY Manning
* Luna Slater
* The Duggars
* And every got damn muchausen case

Makes.

Hang on. If we can red pill the IRS after they are forced to catalog each individual plastic toy Kevin buys ... we might just be able to turn this whole ship around.

"Will there be more mitigations?"
"It depends if you are vaccinated or not."

It's totally happening tomorrow.

Another ploy to prop up COVID approval ratings to save his overall approval from imitating a turd getting flushed down. Screams desperation. It also begs the question whether Biden is nearing the low to mid 30's since being "the competent decent savior from Coof and Trump" narrative is deader than his grey matter.

With how much the DNC has been pushing pro-abortion talking points this week, exactly how would they even stay on message on any kind of new mandates? It's too much, too contradictory.

I am vaxxed but am stringently opposed to doing anything differently from this point forward, somewhat on behalf of people I know and love who are not. I will not be "proving" that I've been vaxxed to anyone. I'd burn my card in front of them. You're going to have to treat me the same as anyone who is unvaccinated because how can you tell. I will make it very difficult for you to be able to tell.

Never going to happen. The Feds have been pushing to lower the reporting limit for Form 8300 from $10k down to $5k for literally years now. The banks have staunchly opposed it because of the cost burden associated in complying with it. Not just the banks, but business in general, like car dealerships, manufacturing and others where cash transfers or transactions can easily exceed $5k a day. Now, imagine having to report on every bank account in the entire freaking country with a balance of a meager $600. The infrastructure and manpower to do this isn't there and would have to be absolutely tremendous in order to do so. And you don't think for a second the Feds are going to fund this, do you? It will cost banking and business trillions to comply with an edict like this. As absolutely inept as the IRS currently is, this would require a huge influx of systems, people, budget for them to even begin to manage this amount of data.

Biden is a boomer, boomers give no consideration to logistics when coming up with dumb dystopian ideas, especially when it comes to computers, something they think of as magic boxes with no limit for capacity or ability. Boomers are the people who think laptops are this:

iPhone Zoomers are like this too, but it's less "why is the magic box not working?" and "Why would you want an old boomer box that needs a desk when the modern one fits in my pocket?"

I have no way of knowing if this is Biden's personal pet project, but I'm betting it is.

Every time they mention Trump I'm reminded how much better off I was when he was President and just how fucked I am under this drooling, senile crook.

 

[Gehenna]

@MarvinTheParanoidAndroid It's not his pet project. I floated it earlier but feel reinforced in the idea. This is political theater, meant to shore up a contingent that is wavering by proposing something DOA but which will make clear where loyalties lie.


The interesting part is that the only real contingent that'd be would be the faction within the Cabal who represent Big Tech. The faction most loyal and with the fewest other options. Implies that they are wavering, if they require symbolic gestures like this.

 

[pwnest injun]

D+10 poll has him under 40 now.

This is a D slanted Push Poll from a sympathetic outlet. Read: Internal polling must be closer to low 30s if not upper to mid 20s.

Something to remember is that around half of the Dems are pissed at Biden for not giving them free money and destroying the federal government through court packing and eliminating the Filibuster.

The Death of Gibs is the Death of Dems.

Are we talking "Can do with current existing resources" or "Can theoretically do if resources aren't a consideration"?

 

[pwnest injun]

Literal fires or figurative? Because there are literal fires that they could stop but haven't because of stupid policy.

 

[northstar747]

With current resources

and both types of fires.

 

[Gehenna]

With current resources

Absolutely nothing.

No, seriously.

There is no action that does not require the expenditure of political capital, and they are actually in a negative balance for that. The only method they have of potentially generating some at all, and leaving the question of whether that'd wipe their debt or not, would be the infrastructure bill which,,, well, isn't doing so well right now.

They should try killing themselves, it'd be the most popular action they could take. I hear it'd test well in focus groups.

Nah, you're thinking too ethnically.

A nice terrorist attack would give him all the capital he needs. Especially if he has the media on his side for it. Mass shooting, terrorist attack, some possibly bullshit GOP scandal he can tie his problems to... Maybe that's the plan with the supposed Vax Mandate for tomorrow -- the right will oppose it so he can point to it and go "look, they're killing grandma."

Wonder if the DotMil or Glowies can stop infighting with him long enough for him to rig up a nice false flag.

 

[MarvinTheParanoidAndroid]

Every time they mention Trump I'm reminded how much better off I was when he was President and just how fucked I am under this drooling, senile crook.

I'm reminded of a quote from Cinema Snob, "don't put a better movie into your terrible movie, it just reminds me I could be watching that movie instead."

Every time they try to blame Trump for the Afghan pull, or anything for that matter, I'm reminded of the fact that he wouldn't have bungled the Afghan evac, I'm reminded of the fact the economy was doing well & we were energy self-sufficient when Trump was in office, I'm reminded that Trump didn't beg OPEC for more oil like a hobo asking for change, I'm reminded that despite having no experience in politics that he somehow managed to improve the United States in spite of all the uniparty road blocks through sheer boomer businessman tenacity.

Trump showed me that, unlike what other presidents conveyed before him, the presidency is not some impotent empty title for cheap front men to kick back & watch paint dry on the ceiling while the political machine works autonomously without them until the stars align & the committee decide on some new mediocre to terrible policy to push through to no one's benefit & perpetual disappointment.

And now we're back to square one where the seat of power is being occupied by not only the impotent but the feeble. Biden has proven the opposite of what Trump has proven, that not only is the presidency not an empty title but the rest of the political machine direly needs the leadership of it to function on even the most elementary level. I know this because Biden thought that the system was fully autonomous & could run itself without his influence or intervention, yet lo' and behold what happens when you leave it to its own devices.

The presidency truly is the heart of all political & military power in the machine & there is no secret centralized cabal puppeteering it from the shadows in a top-down manner but multiple interests on the perimeter pulling on Biden's limbs like children fighting over a doll. People really do consult with & answer to Biden himself as an autonomous agent of authority & not the people who claim him as personal property. It is such that even the Pentagon leaked private conversations between Biden & Ghani just to spite Biden for bungling the evac the way he did, for ignoring the Afghan army's plight when they were holding back the Taliban without support from the United States.

And now they're trying to pass impossible legislation to do something that is not only massively impractical & already illegal but ultimately pointless too.

Pulling off a false flag requires political capital. -Everything- costs political capital, ethical or not.


Also, no it wouldn't work. A major crisis from a foreign entity unites the people behind strong leadership. Good or bad, what matters is that they are strong. Biden is viewed as fundamentally weak, he'd not generate anywhere near the unity you think he would from this.

Want your proof? Afghanistan. That is -exactly- the kind of crisis that a terrorist strike on domestic soil would emulate.

Good point.

Well, they can't just keep flailing about for the next 3 years. I don't see where this goes outside of just the rudderless mess that it's been so far. You'd think they'd be prepping and propping Kamala up for pinning everything on Pedo Joe and 25thing him. Guessing something behind the scenes is preventing that.

Why can't they keep flailing about for the next three years? If anything that seems like their best option. Kamala is cancer and putting her in power would not only thrawt their own plans because she won't be a puppet. But also drive sane voters right ward and crazies left.

Imagine if Ross Perot had been President, he had less charisma than Trump but was a real determined bastard who got things done. No wonder they went after him.

 

[verissimus]

No breaks on the Joepedo lads! May he strike true on his own goal!

Tch. You actually believe he actually has his own goals still?

@Iceland Heavy
That pic of the Smiler you posted is very apt for how dems operate in my view. Always smiling and putting on a good face to show that they're the "good guys" when they seem to just despise the populace. It really makes no sense to me, is there really some kind of truth in the idea that power just attracts the most sociopathic pieces of shit imaginable? It's a pretty big flaw in the system if that were true.

I have noticed that when Republicans talk to people, they will at least be open about being shitty. Dems will smile and shake your hand as they slide the knife into your back.
