President Joe Biden, speaking to the nation from the Oval Office Wednesday evening, framed his decision to step aside from the 2024 presidential race as a matter of saving democracy and passing “the torch to a new generation.”
Gaslighting is a colloquialism, defined as manipulating someone into questioning their own perception of reality. - Wikipedia
You cannot blame us for not liking Biden when he does not cater to us. We are not the problem, even if you manage to phrase the issue to make it seem we are at fault.
You’re never going to get the perfect candidate until we reform elections (ranked choice, more parties, get rid of citizens united).
Absolutely keep voting the most liberal Congress people you can. But let’s not kid ourselves: you have to vote for the people who want reform election to get reform election - and Biden isn’t one of those people.
Edit: extended last sentence to make it make more sense
Trump is a distraction. He’s a tool to compromise values and pretend we have a common goal. Yelling at Biden accomplished more already than fearing Trump.
Absolutely not. I don’t want him to win. The original person I replied to stated that those who hate Biden secretly want Trump to win. Which is false. It’s an outright lie. I’m over this game of OMG McCain, Romney, Trump, etc. may win so compromise your values and slowly let this country rot or risk everything collapsing.
Nothing happens overnight in government. It’s a huge ship to turn. If you want progress, vote for the party that aligns closest with your goals. Otherwise you’re simply whining.

Is Trump?

I’m asking you directly: is Trump a better vehicle to achieve these goals?
Absolutely not. I don’t want him to win. The original person I replied to stated that those who hate Biden secretly want Trump to win. Which is false. It’s an outright lie.

Whining made Biden go away. Guess, it’s only okay to complain about Biden if you’re as famous as John Stewart.
The only thing these parties eat is votes. It’s time they work harder for them. Fearing their opposition makes them lazy.
