Official LRC President Joseph R Biden Thread

The irony of this is just savage. For decades--starting well before DJT's candidacy and presidency--FEAR has been the GOP voters' prime motivator. They see that the world changes, and that it's changing ever faster, and fear of that change and what (they *think*) it might mean for them and theirs is what's motivating their choices in primaries and generals.

And Fox News has made itself into a media power precisely by stoking and trading on that fear. Evidently Carlson is a graduate of the Trump Projection School.

Fencing, razor wire, and thousands of National Guard is over the top. No justification.

Weirdsville.

Is politics so hard, m/gas? You help the people, the people like you.

But if you spend your time lying, insulting and giving their money to rich people, they don't like you and vote you out after one term.

That is outstanding. The Biden administration is doing great with this. Little wonder 7 out of 10 Americans approve of his handling of the pandemic.

Kudos to all involved.

As for Seuss...that has nothing to do with Biden or Dems...that was the decision of the owners of the Seuss books. Private sector decision.

As for the capitol defense...m/gas overran the capitol two months ago and are threatening to do it again. The police doesn't think it can stop mobs of thousands of people without violence. So they built a wall. It's disappointing, but this country suffers from right wing political violence - stopping it is very hard.

Tell that to the families of the officers killed during the last right wing insurrection a mere month ago. Blue lives matter.

We could take your word for it, or Tucker Carlson’s word for it, or the FBI’s?

Tough choice.

I think when you say "The American people" what you really mean are the white, land-owning American men who were the only ones allowed to vote. Pretty sure black people weren't in favor of slavery and women weren't in favor of not being allowed to vote.

I would actually be interested in a (brief) historical analysis on that. I think there was a non-insignificant percentage of women that opposed the 19th Amendment at least.

Regarding the 19th Amendment:

Biden asked for a $1.9 trillion covid bill

the american people got behind the $1.9 trillion covid bill. It was, is and remains very popular.

the house and senate passed the $1.9 trillion covid bill

but the elected Rs decided they know better than the American people and voted against it to the person.

Why are the elected Rs so against what the American people want? Arrogance.

Elected Rs will have to realize at some point that they should vote for the things the American people want.

Dumb people want their free money, but do not realize that someone will eventually have to pay this back and the majority of the "covid" bill has NOTHING to do with Covid. Tell Americans the truth and FEW would support that sh1tty bill!

Serious question.

What did he say that wasn't factual?

Looks like I should get my $1400 by the end of the month. Promise made, promise kept, check that one off the list. Next up 10k in student debt relief.

I thought it was going to be a $2000 check? I don't ever recall Biden bragging about $1400 checks.

Republicans always say "deficits don't matter"...... until Democrats are in the majority.

Yeah, that's why the majority of the money in this bill DOES NOT help people in need, it is just a pay off to Dem Donors. Please follow along.

Good point! I'm sure you feel the same about of the violence, injuries, and deaths that occurred during the summer at those mostly peaceful protests over a couple of career criminals that didn't listen to your Blue Lives that you say matter.

You do realize that many "black people" were, and still are, involved in slave trading?

1. The US border with Mexico was completely open for most of the country's existence.

2. Joe has in no way made the border 'completely open.' That's absurd and just another stupid right wing lie.

3. The reporting on illegal aliens with covid is not clear - there isn't a reliable source on that. Most likely it's a big mix of regional acts, not controlled by a central fed authority. There is a lot of gray area in immigration and human biology.

Yea, some crazy people, who really did next to nothing compared to all your beloved summer BLM protests. Now you have the Biden government protected behind fences, razor wire, and thousands of National Guard.

Like I said, Weirdsville. Gets stranger by the day. I suppose its what we deserve.
