To quote a friend of mine, “Joe Biden is the used car salesman his daddy always wanted to be.”
Ops point is that he watches Murdoch media, and they didnt mention anything.
That’s why trump won. He consumed the news cycle with his temper tantrums whilst the adults were out working
A quick Google however has lots of lists of things he accomplished https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2024/02/02/joe-biden-30-policy-things-you-might-have-missed-00139046
What is your favorite flavor of boot, personally?
I’m quite partial to black leather, good thing that will be in fashion next year.
What’s yours?
He has nothing to lose, #YOLO.
He protected his own, and proved we weren’t a part of it.
Are people still shocked by this stuff? I just expect them to do whatever they want like they all have been for years.
May I ask, why does this get so downvoted?😅
The bad .world instance has access to this instance, and they absolutely hate when you insult their God king or their preferred side of the uniparty.
Not all of the downvotes are from .world, and quite a few of the upvotes are from .world. It’s best not to overgeneralize.
Yeah, I’d want to hear an opinion from someone who actually downvoted it, cuz I still dont exactly get what’s wrong with the meme that would give it such a bad score.😅
I’d be willing to bet a significant amount of the downvotes stem from this meme being nearly indistinguishable from something that gets posted on Parlor or Truth Social.
I don’t think truth social would equate Trump’s presidency as “leaving someone to die”
Because if Biden refused to leave that would be pretty shitty… you know, to reject the results of an election.
Biden has always been a piece of shit. That said, he’s old, his other son is dead, and his loser son got caught up in a shitstorm that had less to do with justice and everything to do with politics and optics. The country decided that it is happy to go down the a fully corrupt, inept and fascist rabbit hole, and Biden opted to save his loser son and tell everyone to go fuck themselves and go suck an mushroom shaped cock.
but
EDIT: Don’t get mad at an old man for choosing to save his son. Be mad at a system that allows a man to abuse his power to protect his friends and family from consequences. For once, a proper use of “Don’t hate the player, hate the game”.
In this case the players make the game at least a bit.
This is a great and nuanced comment.
Comments like this are the reason I keep coming back to Lemmy.
I’m not surprised or shocked he did it. Only saddened he refuses to do anything else
At least the chair is warm, I guess.
Big time
I can hate both, I’m pretty good at it
Couldn’t have said this better. Memes and all. Kudos.
Biden issued a blanket pardon starting in 2014. What was Hunter Biden doing in 2014 and how does this reflect on the idea of him simply passively getting “caught up” in something?
Because if he didn’t, Republicans would absolutely try to drum up some false charges to keep the party going
So what was Hunter doing in 2014?
Liberals: “Hunter deserved 80k a month for his expertise in natural gas”
lmao
I’m GLAD Biden understands the SEVERITY of the Upcoming Trump Presidency and is doing EVERYTHING he can to Protect the American People and NOT just His Family!
The upcoming Trump presidency and everything that comes with it is the Americans people’s fault.
Oh course. Certainly don’t mention the Democrat party that ran two uncompelling candidates against the most flawed opponent in history, spent 2.5 billion dollars in 15 weeks while having almost no presence nationally, and give the American people nothing to get excited about, exerting no effort while expecting IQs above 100 and plenty of involvement from every voting American in order to win, even though those Americans don’t really understand that inflated prices aren’t going down but that’s not the administration’s problem, they’re not going to change anything.
WHAT COULD GO WRONG?
Well, yeah. Not being Trump is basically all that was needed. Given the choice between Trump and anyone else, You should automatically pick anyone else. It’s not hard to understand. Who cares about media presence, you go to the voting booth, locate the square next to Trump, and select the other one. What can be difficult or complicated about that? Most people in the world understand that, but not Americans. They’re too stupid, so fuck them, it’s their fault, I don’t give a shit what happens to them now.
Obviously, that’s not all that was needed. And I would have like to have our party do what’s needed rather than expect things to happen without them trying.
Plus all that money. Wtf
Well, now You have a party, that will identify, what needs to be done to make people’s lives better, and then do the exact opposite. Great choice.
Are you really this entrenched? Are you a foreign asset here to troll?
It’s not wrong to point out the Democrat’s faults in the campaign. It’s how we learn to do better next time. It wasn’t inevitable that Trump got elected. The Harris campaign fucked up. They alienated people.
Your need to blame voters borders on pathological.
Have you never met anyone else from any circle that isn’t echoing back at you? My Romanian boss brags about how good Trump will be and laments it’s not good for him.
All over the world right wing parties gathered more power but somehow Americans are more special? And everyone else is super smart because they should be?
No, you don’t just get to blame everyone else with saying they should have been more educated or more smart or just done what you say harder.Those are not owed and do not work in a real world. But continue to live in fantasy and denial to make yourself happy as one of the good ones while being apathetic to suffering and giddy at the idea of punishment. If only you could personally hold the whip.
Is everything ok? Are You having a stroke? What the fuck are You talking about?
I was directly responding to your bad take.
Not trump is not all that is needed cause people wanted him as well for reasons that if ignored make the whole issue a lot easier to assign blame on. And specifically calling Americans stupid as if their right wing lean lately is unique is false when the whole world went more right.
All of your points are bad and completely unhelpful and false.If you aren’t understanding my response it’s cause you don’t want to see outside of the perspective you want. I’m talking to you. If you don’t want to hear it that’s you not me.
You already said you don’t care about other people.
Not being Trump is basically all that was needed.
Clearly. And if Harris had maybe gone just a teensy bit more to the right she would have gotten so many republican votes, right?
I cant beleive this drivel keeps popping up a full month later.
ITT: people who wouldn’t lift a finger to save their family from a corrupt incoming DoJ
Nevermind elected officials in power… let’s point out the cowardice of people in a Lemmy thread.
in the meme board, at that, lmao, of all places
Biden is sharpening the knife that will be used against every other family while saving his crackhead failson.
Biden is not sharpening the knife: he simply placed a knife sharpener on the counter and is a good sport about letting others use it .
It always was a caretaker presidency, that’s what I thought when he first got into office.
I expect thoughtful words from his speeches as he gently leaves office
The Biden admin is already going after Palestinian solidarity orgs and ramping up powers to use the military domestically.
Sources?
He is right about the Palestinian humanitarian orgs, been doing that for a year. I don’t know about the military, unless he means Biden is probably not doing all he can to prevent them from being misused domestically. Don’t know anything there
Dude its been all over the news. Use google.
https://theintercept.com/2024/11/29/biden-climate-funding-palestine/
The domestic one. 🙄
His asshole
The Biden admin + Canadian targetinh of Samidoun and the domestic forces have been increased throughout the admin via direct funding of cops and supplying with military equipment along with fighting to keep and expand Trump-era national guard deployments using the insurrection act.
Again, sources?
I gave you the specific, identifying terms for both things, you can easily look into them with a Google search. If you spend 5 minutes looking for each and come back and say you could not identify them, I will go fetch them for you.
If that was Biden’s motivation, then where is Fauci’s pardon? Or Adam “Enemy from Within” Schiff’s pardon? Or what about Liz Chenney who is supposed to face treason charges according to Trump, where is her pardon? What about Jack Smith, where is his pardon? Kash Patel has an appendix in his book which is a literal enemies and prosecution list, any pardons for anyone on that list?
If Biden was concerned about the Trump justice department going after his political enemies, and Biden wanted to protect those people, there’s probably 80+ pardons he should be handing out.
But instead he only issued one. For his son. So Biden is either actually concerned about overreach of the Trump justice department but he’s only willing to save his son, and leave everyone else hanging. Or, Biden isn’t actually that concerned with the Trump justice department and is just abusing his pardon power to protect his shithead son from the consequences of his own actions. Either way, fuck Joe Biden.
I’ll entertain that argument once he’s no longer president and can no longer give those other pardons.
If I were a career politician I would simply not raise a crackhead.
Fuck y’all who didn’t vote for Kamala. Go cry in your beer.

WHAT COULD GO WRONG?
What could go wrong is millions of childish idiots would decide to walk across broken glass barefoot because they don’t like the choices of shoes available. And then blame it on whoever brought the shoes.
I don’t disagree with you fully, both things are to be blamed here. An average person should do a proper research before voting, but a party should also give people what they want instead of forcing specific candidates. To be blunt, good amount of voters are idiots and ignorant, so it’s party’s responsibility to figure out what they want and then base their campaign on that. Thats where primaries can play a huge part.
The Democratic Party did try to campaign based on what they thought the public wanted and what the country needed, and more than 74 million people showed up and voted for her. The 10 million or so Democrats who voted in 2020 but didn’t in 2024, who could have changed the outcome but didn’t, can’t blame the party for their own fuckheadedness.
You see thats the problem, you didn’t bring shoes. you literally spread the glass. bringing shoes would have meant having policies that would actually help working americans.
I showed up and voted. The problem was y’all who didn’t. You also literally don’t understand what the word “literally” means.
Oh I showed up and voted. you’re not some special snowflake. just didnt vote for harris or trump. get better candidates next time and maybe we’ll support your shit party. You know maybe people who dont shit on a minority group being murdered by our policies their entire campaign, or immediately try to through lgbt+ groups under the bus immediately following their loss. Maybe someone who also supports policies beneficial towards the working class.
You know, basic fucking human decency. if you want safety for yourself you need to support safety for others. which dems clearly don’t. Next time you spout ‘blue no matter who’ or other such nonsense to defend your preferred parties candidate remember: you need to actually give people reasons to vote for your candidate. things you may not personally agree with.
Well said.

Without timing, it’s not comedy, it’s just a cry for attention.
How so? I honestly thought it was funny.
Edit: I read it a few times and now I get it. That wasn’t my intention. I’m sorry to those I offended.
Given the circumstances, I’d have done the same thing. Under trump’s dictatorship, I’d imagine he wouldn’t have lived long in prison- what with all those…. Open windows.
Given the circumstances, I’d have vastly restructured the entire government using some Official Acts
This is a blatant abuse of power by a totally incompetent President who represents a party of foolish woke children. But, by all means keep crying Orange Man Bad… the vast majority of the population disagree.
Small bit of relative truth mixed with hypocrisy, dog-whistle, complaint, misunderstanding of word, misunderstanding of concept of voting population.
You hit all the highlights, personally i’d have gone with more dogwhistles, maybe something to do with immigrants ?
A solid 8/10 shitpost.
Vast means large btw, as in big.
Winning the popular vote, remember that’s the thing the libs were bitching about for years, is a win. What makes it large is also winning the house, senate, and gaining ground in almost every county across the USA. You are right, that’s not just big, it’s a landslide. The American people spoke clearly, the bullshit you likely support is over. Take the loss.
Moving goalpoats, unrelated, more goalpost moving, claiming victory without any actual rebuttal, semi-truth, hope stated as fact, implication of stance not actually taken.
Hmm, a bit derivative but overall a solid entry, not as good as the last, still no immigrant references, i’ll give this a 7/10 shitpost.
Hey, if you want to reinterpret what “vast majority” in the context of a political win means, you do you.
Every single news outlet reported it as a landslide. Kamala, the DEI incompetent candidate was told she sucked by the majority of voters. Ill assume you wasted your vote on her.
Easily provable lie, hope stated as fact, victory claimed on position never stated.
Come on guy it’s like you aren’t even trying anymore.
Still no immigrants, not even an LGBT ? Really?
lacklustre 2/10 shitpost, must try harder.

in fairness that last one did use the phrase “vast majority” to describe the number of counties that shifted to red, not the actual number of votes
I know i highlighted the difference between the two statements but i’m not expecting you to understand how statistics works or acknowledge the difference so don’t strain yourself.
MA-JOR-ITY.
If this happened to Kamala you would be doing back flips at the gay rights parade. But it didn’t. It didn’t even come close. Get ready for actual common sense leadership, smaller government, and the majority of Americans being united in making America Great again.
Good things are right around the corner.
51% in an election with very low turnout is hardly a “landslide”. When you brag about something like this, it just shows people that you have to glom onto something other people did because you have no accomplishments of your own.
Low turnout meaning the 15 million liberal ‘voters’ that only ever showed up in the last election, LMFAO.
The Democrats got told by the Bigly Majority of American Citizens…We are done with your bullshit. Maybe you should go to a safe space and try to calm your emotions?
I think Trump should send all Democratic voters a participation ribbon, you know, to make them feel less like a loser.
This is really not helping with the “no personal accomplishments” observation I made earlier. How typical. How boring.
How old are you? Hurry up and die soon please. America needs your kind of old assholes to die. Fuck you and all other Trump supporting Nazis.
“vast majority” lul
Dang, telegram is working over time today flooding Lemmy with propaganda, oops I’m mean “memes”
Memes can be propaganda lmao
yeah… thanks for clarifying my point.
Yeah, but I mean that don’t be surprised if you see memes with propaganda during the US election season
We are trying to get Donald Trump to win the election from Kamala Harris. Don’t tell anyone the secret!
Nice try but a vote for anyone other than Joe Biden is a vote for Trump.
oh, no. I’m being challenged!
“Haha, I’m gonna say Rogan, telegram, Russia or Altright and fuck off because I have no opinion outside of spoonfed leftist media, haha”
The only difference between you and a Trump voter was the position of your hand on the ballot.
Drivel
I’m trying to figure out if you’re a russian troll/bot or just a useful idiot. Like what number account are you on now?
“Hypocrisy isn’t illegal, nor is it particularly unusual in politics,” Stewart said Monday about Biden’s pardon. “It’s not like he’s ever going to run again. So why not take care of your kid, even if you said you weren’t gonna? I respect it. I don’t have a problem with it.”
Suck it whiners.
Go pass your own purity tests.
Democrats can complain, although I’m not a fan of the decision, I get it.
Republicans can go suck a giant dick. You’ve lost your right to complain after electing a treasonous, orange rapist.
Drug addicts get kicked in the face in jail. I guess when your dad is famous and you’re not brown, the rules just don’t apply.
