Bad political take not panning out how you hoped?
No matter, just say it was a joke.

How about I am more complex than the little pigeon hole you have placed me?
I think you are projecting upon me what you don't like about your opponents (...) Put down the Marxist literature and look around.
Yeah, the problem is evidently us pigeonholing you.

I don't know about you guys but Biden is awesome. Nothing to complain about. I'm certainly enjoying the Medicare For All and having my student loans forgiven. Keep up the great work Joe! :cool:

Yes, because Medicare For All can be done by executive order, but all the past Democratic presidents just didn't do it for some reason. Thanks, Obama!

No MFA huh? I assumed the guy who got 81 million votes - most popular leader in human history - could get that done if he wanted to.
Oh well, at least we're getting war with Russia. Silly old Drumpy didn't start any new wars - pathetic!

Well, we should, except for gerrymanders, filibusters, and other random bullshit that Republicans use to outsize their popularity.

...We're not getting war with Russia. If Russia
does decide to invade Ukraine, that's on them. When did Republicans suddenly started worshipping at the altar of appeasement? They call themselves the party of Lincoln when they're clearly not even the party of Dubya.

Since it became all about performative assholery and power:

In 2013, when Barack Obama was president, a Washington Post-ABC News poll found that only 22 percent of Republicans supported the U.S. launching missile strikes against Syria in response to Bashar al-Assad using chemical weapons against civilians.
A new Post-ABC poll finds that 86 percent of Republicans support Donald Trump's decision to launch strikes on Syria for the same reason. Only 11 percent are opposed.
-- Overall, a bare 51 percent majority of U.S. adults support the president's action in our new poll. In 2013, just 30 percent supported strikes. That swing is driven primarily by GOP partisans. For context, 37 percent of Democrats back Trump's missile strikes. In 2013, 38 percent of Democrats supported Obama's plan. That is well within the margin of error.
