Perhaps she misspoke was misquoted.  Anyway, Biden is in for one tough ride, exactly as he should be
I think the above might be more accurate, whether you think it as accidental or a deliberate verbal is a complete other issue! ;D

I'll give Joe about 18 months to steady the ship, build some bridges then he will retire and Kamala will take over and give us Obama style management/policy for the rest of the term.
re: Trump....you dont necessarily have to win mega votes to be popular in a country where voting isnt compulsory, plenty of closet middle class Trump supporters IMHO.

No doubt @ElwoodBlues1‍ 

A lot of middle class make their money from the downtrodden, but they don't want the downtrodden to know it!

btw., Middle class has a very specific definition, most who think they are middle class are far far from it because they wrongly identify the middle class as upper class!

Well, I suppose from me on the outside I'd like to think of it that way!

I remember once Dick Pratt sent his private jet from Echuca to Essendon and back to pick up some critical supplies, he/they/someone had left the steaks at home for the barbecue he was hosting. Now that is what I call non-linear thinking, and certainly not middle class! ;D

Middle class would be driving into Echuca after hours, locating and waking the butcher and getting him to prepare and provide the best available steaks at any price he can name, then boasting to your friends about it!

Hmm. I've read that three times, and I don't see any reference to not accepting voting results. To my eyes, she is urging Biden to not concede until all votes are counted, and to take up the fight with manpower, legal processes and the way Biden comports himself, all in response to baseless claims and bully boy tactics. 

That was my interpretation as well.

So important to give credit where it is due.

On a positive for the Orange One, he achieved two notable things.

1. He achieved necessary adjustments in trade with China, the US was on the wrong end of a few important trade deals. 2. His most incredible achievement, an amazing achievement, was to make George W look like a Rhode Scholar.

“‘It’s Over’: Devastated QAnon Believers Grapple With President Joe Biden’s Inauguration “, HuffPost. Click Here.

These scumbags, the lowest of the low, really thought “the storm” was going to happen just before Biden was inaugurated: Trump and his Gestapo would descend on the assembled Democrats (and Pence!), round them up and execute them for running cannibalistic paedophilic rings, and then would inaugurate himself for another 4 years. Morons, but incredibly dangerous morons for sure. For all those who say that the US needs to understand Trump’s supporters and embrace them, that’s just not possible short of a mass lobotomy program.

Quote
Like a flipped switch, the attitude inside online QAnon communities shifted from glee to shock and misery: “NOTHING screwING HAPPENED!!!”; “So now we have proof Q was total bullcrap”; “I feel sick, disgusted and disappointed”; “Have we been duped???”; “You played us all”; “HOW COULD WE BELIEVE THIS FOR SO LONG? ARE WE ALL IDIOTS?”

Quote
Ron Watkins, the former administrator of 8kun — a platform that has long been vital to Q’s communication with believers — also pulled the plug: “We gave it our all,” he told his nearly 120,000 Telegram subscribers. “Now we need to keep our chins up and go back to our lives as best we are able.”

Quote
WE’VE BEEN SCAMMED INTO BELIEVING Q!!!” a Telegram user declared.

“WHAT NOW?!?!?!”

Maybe they’ll settle on delayed gratification: just wait until 2024 for the executions to begin!

Not sure he should be given credit for addressing the China problem. Obama’s strategy was to implement the Trans-Pacific Partnership to solidify an alliance to counter China. Trump scrapped that and made no attempt to come up with an alternative way of building an alliance. In fact, he went the other way by stressing his America First strategy. He made it clear there’d be no inducements or protection offered and understandably Pacific nations felt it was in their best interests to accept aid through China’s Belt & Road program. China was able to peel away US allies and the most visible consequence was that those nations withdrew recognition of Taiwan.

Meanwhile, Trump tried to forge a US-China deal which would freeze out other countries (including Australia) while lavishing praise on Xi. It’s only when he couldn’t get enough concessions from the Chinese that he resorted to tariffs and rhetoric. Only in the last couple of days of his administration was there any condemnation over the genocide of the Uyghurs (after Trump had earlier assured Xi that he had no problems with it). And there was never any support given to pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong.

Hope I didn’t ruin your joke too much by taking your 1st point too seriously, Baggers. It set up point 2 nicely! And yes, Trump has helped Bush rehabilitate his image.

Wonder if Bush looks at Trump and sees a far more charismatic but far less cunning version of Dick Cheney ...

Unless folks have a massive crush on Trump and are only interested in personality politics, I really don't see why they would have the grumps with Biden. The Democrats under him are very close to the Republicans, with slightly better policies and much better manners. His cabinet, at least to my eyes, comprises corporate goons and ex Obama apparatchiks. Not a single progressive of note made the final cut - no Bernie Sanders, no Lizzie Warren, no Ocasio-Cortez. I certainly wasn't expecting anything different, but it still depresses me.

I'm not saying Dems and Reps are the same, but they are too similar IMO.

Hmm, it's a global phenom....!

Polling and gerrymander ends up with them all in the same barrel!
