By serving the facist tea?
What a weird coincidence that, just as AOC and Bernie begin a wildly successful tour of the country, we start hearing about the Biden’s wanting to help lead the party or Kamala being the the top choice for 2028.
Like how suddenly all the milquetoast candidates capitulated to Biden just before Super Tuesday when Bernie was winning states.
Always weird how they use dirty tactics for the left but never the fascists…
Or how they delayed announcing a winner in Iowa, rigged at least one delegate coin flip, and eventually anointed Buttigieg the winner even though Bernie received more votes.
May as well get ready for president Ivanka Trump in 2028. The DNC is its own worst enemy.
it’s not Biden.
It’s the party.
it needs a culling. absolute decimation. vote nearly all of them out. you know the very few that should stay. erase the rest from history.
dude if a republican unwittingly says something that doesn’t call for death of trans people they’ll be immediately ousted. democrats out here capitulating to nazis. be a little republican. get them out.
If voting worked they would abolish voting. Both parties have the same masters.
Keep setting Tesla dealerships on fire, the only things capitalists respond to are forced devaluation events
They are trying to abolish voting, see voter suppression laws and pretty much every voting rights case the Supreme Court has seen during Roberts’s tenure.
Oh, that’ll really help.
Somewhere in DC, there’s a speedbump that they should name after Biden.
Why has the left been floundering for the past dozen years? It doesn’t feel like the common man has anyone to represent us.
Take your pick/all:
$$$/ lobbyists/ citizen united/ Dems deepthroating Corpo influence/ dinosaur leaders pruning any progressive candidates
The guy that appointed Republican Merrick Garland to AG can fuck right off forever
Fark off. We’re not giving you guys a goddamn thing. You are WAY too comfortable with doing nothing and compromising with 100% concentrated evil. I’ll be voting for candidates who were born AFTER the Battle of the Bulge.
I suppose he had to offer, it was his support of Israel murdering Palestinian women and children that lost Harris the election, but I think it’s best for Joe to have a quiet retirement.
Maybe, in time, we’ll remember him fondly as Obama’s VP.
I really want to get into this opinion. You really believe the 2024 election broke to republicans favor over Palestine? If you are one of the voters that advocated for not voting, are you happy with the result? Is palestine now better off due to trump?
I’m not American. Palestine wasn’t the only reason, but it certainly lost Harris the Arab vote and Trump only just scraped through.
A bold gambit. Let’s see if they can survive 4 years of extra judicial ICE deportations. I don’t envy anyone of middle eastern decent if we start a war with iran. Scapegoats just like 2001 but with way less civil rights. Should be fun!
Just retire already. I still regret my vote for him.
You’re getting downvoted but your comment prompts a thought. Would trump 2020 be as dangerous as 2024 trump? The time spent planning and organizing on their part has led to an extremely quick response in destroying this country compared to what happened in his 1st term
I’ve been saying this and it’s an unpopular opinion… it honestly would have been better if Trump had just won in 2020.
Yes, COVID would have continued to be a disaster but we wouldn’t have the J6 experience, he would still have a few of the old guard people keeping him in check, and he wouldn’t have Elon Musk on board with him.
Most importantly: he would be blamed for the post-COVID shit that was his fault, rather than Biden taking the heat for not fixing the disaster Trump left him. The selective amnesia that settled over half the population from 2021-2024 would not have happened.
And we would be fucking done with Trump by now. My god, imagine that. He flies away on Jan 20, 2025 and we never have to hear from him ever again. Wouldn’t that be heaven?
If Democrats were the opposition party during the genocide you wouldn’t get online liberals justifying it and ridiculing anyone opposed to it. The Democrats would have probably won in 2024 too.
Yea thank allah we got trump in there now. He will find a place for the palestinians. Somewhere near Trump hotel. They will be the foundation of his Christian Empire in the middle east. Inshallah.
At least you’re honest about what you stand for.
Fuck around and fuck off geezer
two weeks ago i tried searching to figure out where the fuck Biden had gone. couldn’t find a thing besides the talent agency he’d signed with
He’s like 80yo. Let him be
Fuck off and get back to bed, Joe
These comments smell tankie af
Biden is giving free money to the progressive party far in advance of the midterms, I say we lock in and join the parade.
Which progressive party would that be? Is there a viable progressive party? Is it in the room with us now?
DNC wants to tax the rich, fund everyone’s healthcare, ban lobbying, draw fair election maps, protect the rights of minorities, stop climate change, and protect the right to worship whatever you want.
If they had the authority to pass everything on their platform, if they had a trifecta and 60 senators for the first time since 1979 and a bunch of conservative SCOTUS judges croaked so we could replace them, then the USA would be further left than more than half of the EU.
DNC wants to
DNC says it wants to…
That’s something entirely different. When the Dems have had the votes, they didn’t deliver. Just like Trump, ignore the words, look at the actions.
They’ve literally done more than half of these things and Republicans make a career out of tearing it down at every opportunity.
Ah yes. Give money to the “progressive party” so it can do progressive things like funding ads for far right republicans in primaries:
Or backing “centrist” primary candidates against progressive candidates.
Very progressive. This amalgamation of rich people’s money and consultants is a great political ally.
Fuck yeah fund the opposition’s primary. Your article even explains why that strategy works so well.
If you don’t like how campaigns get financed, then I have some wonderful news! Democrats have in the past written many campaign finance laws including capping contributions per person effectively outlawing lobbying from 2003 to 2010 which was the basis of the Citizens United SCOTUS decision, which was also a 5:4 partisan decision.
Yeah look how well it’s worked. Far right nutjobs have totally not been normalized. Nope.
No matter how much you think far-right primarying conservatives in congressional districts normalizes the nutjobs, nothing holds a candle to electing the racist felon to POTUS two whole times.
If there were more competitive conservative primaries in 2024 like there were for democrats then we’d be in a different timeline rn.
Yeah you’re right, it’s nothing compared to helping Trump get elected.

Let’s see,
- ABC News article talking about how unprepared they were to face Trump (because they were expecting to face Rubio) and how much they underestimated his appeal
Clinton and the Democratic Party establishment repeatedly stressed Trump’s lack of political experience as a knock against him during the general election campaign, but nationwide, the electorate valued the ability to bring about change.
- Politico article about how shocking it was to the Clinton campaign that Trump won the RNC primaries
“I asked a Clinton staffer about this,” said Sullivan, who around that time briefly went online to research Irish double-citizenship out of her revulsion with the Republican nominee-to-be. “He said, ‘Well, you know, now we have to save the republic.’"
- A Salon article which cites a “wikileaks whistleblower” with a secret email addressed to no actual persons but the DNC just in general. Not even going to quote this one.
Did you have some kind of point to make here? It might help if two of your articles didn’t directly contradict the third.
Did you not read about the part where their plan was to boost the more extreme candidates in the primary to try to get the rest of them to move further right in hopes that it would make an easier opponent for them?
That they realized they screwed up after the fact doesn’t change that.
Because locking in to biden worked so well last time… This is such a stupid idea it has to come from a republican.
We didn’t lock into Biden and that’s why we now have Trump.
How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man?
We didn’t lock into Biden and that’s why we now have Trump.
Are you implying Biden would have won?
WTF are you talking about? Biden wasn’t running in 2024.
🤦
Oh my fuck.
get out
get the fuck out, Biden
You lost the whole show, you simple fuck. You handed the republic to the fascists. You did NOTHING to stop them. You shook his fucking hand and gave him tea. You couldn’t campaign to save your own fucking life, and your meddling played a major role in your successor failing (though Harris does not get a pass here either). If I never see your name - or the Clinton name, for that matter - ever again in my life, it’ll be too soon.
No, no. It’s worse. They did more than nothing. They specifically held back from prosecuting him because they wanted to run against trump. So Biden could attempt to stay in power by saying “oh it has to be me I’m the only one who’s beaten him.”
The hubris is just absolutely infuriating
Agreed.
It’s wild that Biden’s arrogance and conceit was a more important concern than winning the election. Everyone around him knew his brain was fucked.
He’s probably more like a young child emotionally right now from mental decline, shouldnt have been allowed to be president.
It’s not hubris though. They know what they are doing and they don’t care because they won’t be the ones hurt by it. They would legitimately rather Trump be president than win by having to adopt any kind of actually progressive policy. This is what all of their actions have shown us. Don’t give them a pass for incompetence, they are just as culpable for the situation we find ourselves in today.
Do we have proof or is this conjecture that fits what we can observe?
It’s been a while and searching for old news including the words Biden and trump is basically impossible, but I do remember seeing a like DOJ memo or something to hold off on persecuting. While it did not say the reason I listed above, I can’t imagine much other reason to do so and it’s not like they’ll come out and admit it was for that reason.
Edit: and post I remember commenting on about it two months ago was deleted from politics…. so… can’t find it that way.
Thanks for the added context. If they did intentionally delay prosecution (plausible considering how much time they had to do it but didn’t) then that’s pretty hard to excuse regardless of the reason.
Bernie and AOC are the new direction. Biden wants back in to stop them. Fuck Biden!
Make no mistake:
This is not “help.” This is the neoliberal fascist collaborator backlash against help.
