Fuck off Biden, now's the time to use that presidential immunity you just got to attack enemies of the state before your term ends. It's legal!

Imagine being an indigenous woman and hearing this.

We aren't going to be okay. Stop saying it's going to be okay. Project 25 is not okay, turning Gaza into a crater is not okay, banning abortion is not okay, cutting Medicare is not okay. None of this shit is okay. Stop trying to sit and act like being cordial is going to make the right go, "Well, they're being so nice about it." We fucked up, and we need to face the consequences.

By we he means, them and their wealthy friends, and the celebrities they paraded during the last campaign. Struggling people can eat dirt.

3 days ago, it was going to be the last election, the ultimate election, the end times, the end of democracy. Now we'll be fine?
Pre-election Dems and post-election Dems cannot both be right. One of the two is lying.
it's just that democrats give republicans too much good faith and try to be the better people; both things can be true.
So... pre-election Democrats were not being the better people??? I really don't get this.
I am convinced that Project 2025 is coming to your country and that trumpism is the most dangerous modern day neo-fascist strain. I actually believe the pre-election Democrats. You don't appease fascism, you don't give it good faith, you resist it, you fight it, you crush it.
This about-face of the post-election Democrats is insane and it feeds directly into the "boy who cried wolf" narrative that the Right is pushing. Not to mention they are normalizing trumpism.
pre election democrats were literally warning about everything that has been planned since tuesday.....
the point is democrats always go the high road with "ok we must work together" regardless of what evil shit republicans do because they put too much (imo) trust in the jimmy stewart era

And this is exactly what's wrong with the Democrats, and why Biden never should've run. They're too comfortable in their big houses with all their money and privilege. They have no fucking idea what it's like for most Americans, and clearly they don't care because they've never had to. There is no party in the US to fight for regular people, so they didn't vote.
They are shit but they cant be alarmist reactionaries either. They need change but trying to encourage stability and console people isnt the worst
Except that they've spent the last 6 months telling everyone that it's a choice between them and fascism. Then when fascism comes they're like "oh well, we tried".
I'm just hoping that this loss will eventually make the Dems look inward, but I'm not holding my breath when he's saying shit like this.

Fascism is something to be alarmed about! It's an existential threat to democracy!
The Democrats had 4 years to do something about it and didn't. "Vote for us or else" is not a long term strategy, all it takes is losing one or two elections.

Says the neoliberal shitbag who appointed a conservative traitor to NOT prosecute Trump. The same shitbag who should NOT have run in the first fucking place. And now the DNC is going to tack even further right.
Historically, fascism is only defeated through violence, but in this case, that violence needs to happen inside our own house. The DNC needs to purge itself of neoliberals and conservatives just in case there's another shot at salvaging democracy. DNC neoliberals are the deadly threat closest to us.
he was literally in the middle of being prosecuted... blame trump appointed judges for delaying.
Garland (an actual Republican) waited two and a half years to even START investigating, and he only did that after congress publicly humiliated him by placing a mountain of evidence at his doorstep.
If we had a real AG and not a conservative, Trump would have been properly prosecuted and countless lives would have been saved.
Merrick Garland sat on his hands for 2.5 years, intentionally letting Trump off the hook. I hope he is Trump's first victim in the prison camps.
the ag doesn't prosecute cases,federal prosecutors do and it takes time to build cases
Biden needs to shut up and get back to work appointing judges.
Narrator: they would not be ok
Okay-ish
Does Biden seriously think Trrump will let him retire in peace? He needs to flee the country before Trump is sworn in or he and his family will be arrested. There's no way Trump will let go the man who beat him, the man who made him look like a fool, the man who was going to have him arrested during his presidency.
Even Taylor Swift might be facing issues.
Trump cannot commit crimes as a president. There's no such thing as murder for him anymore.
Biden is rich he'll be just fine. Donnie talks a big talk but when push comes to shove money and connections are everything and Biden still has those. Just today they're reporting he's "paving the way for a smooth transition" or some other bullshit.
The rest of us are fucked but the rich and powerful will be the least fucked.
