Trump being shitty doesn't make Biden good. Neither of them should be in contention let alone the front runners.

Biden has been a pretty great president. Way exceeded my expectations.

Sure. But that isn't the discussion anymore. That was a year ago. The situation is, Trump vs Biden.

People were saying the exact same shit a year ago. They've been saying the exact same shit the whole god damn time since those two have been running.

[–] GladiusB 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Yes. You have correctly summarized the situation.

So we're just never allowed to criticize Biden?

[–] GladiusB 1 points 4 days ago

No. I'm saying that isn't the situation we are in. We can't replace him at this point. That ship has sailed. Now it's him or Trump. That is the table we are at.

We need to wake up to a more refined political system. A two party system will not sustain a future. We are in a lull due to the previous 6 years being a total shit show.

This was you one year ago.

Huh? I don't see me anywhere. I'm not saying it shouldn't change. I'm saying that isn't the way it is now and there is no point in stating that we should try. I wrote my fuckin dissertation in Poli-Sci on the subject of a diverse voting pool and how it is the demise of our political system. I agree. However that isn't what is going on today.
