Funny since the other guy is running on an updated Nazi platform.

[–] ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca 47 points 11 months ago (4 children)

Seems like it should be really easy to find a democrate candidate who is both better than Biden and not a Nazi.

[–] ours@lemmy.world 30 points 11 months ago (1 children)

And not having a foot in the grave would be nice.

Why? Get him to pick an awesome VP and then kick the bucket. Sounds awesome.

[–] IndiBrony@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

To be fair, this is partly how I've been looking at it. In the event that power gets delegated to the VP, you want to know the right hand man isn't an absolute crock of shit as well.

But surely even an old man suffering dementia is a better candidate than Trump.

They're laying around all over the place. The thing is none of them want to run right now.

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The sitting president is the leader of the party. He's not going anywhere.

[–] AntiOutsideAktion@lemmy.ml -4 points 11 months ago

One way or another he's out of that office on Jan 20

[–] ssm@lemmy.sdf.org 0 points 11 months ago

This should make the democrat's intentions very clear.

[–] Aurenkin@sh.itjust.works 26 points 11 months ago (1 children)

But he's a whole 3 years younger!

[–] foggy@lemmy.world 34 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

To the point I personally love to make..

Trump. Biden. George W. Bill Clinton.

Were all, at one point, simultaneously high school students. All born within 4 years of one another.

1992 - 2028. With the exception of Obama, all under the rule of one very, very narrow demographic.

[–] sentient_loom@sh.itjust.works 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That generation refuses to let go. It will be amazing if they swap Biden for Hillary.

[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 31 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Nobody wants Hillary to run. Not even Hillary.

[–] mannycalavera@feddit.uk 8 points 11 months ago

But it's her turn!

And clearly takes better care of himself with all those hamberders and covfefe.

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Seriously, the whole too old argument is a bulldog with rubber teeth. Trump's a buffoon with or without cognitive decline.

On what grounds? Hating Biden for being a liberal right winger propping up genocide does not make them a supporter of someone even more right wing.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world -2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Only if they refuse to vote for him to keep the even more right wing one out of office.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Biden isn't catering to Leftist voters. That doesn't mean pointing out Biden and the DNC as right wingers is support for Trump.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I didn't say it was. I said refusing to vote for him is, albeit passively. Hate Biden all you want, but keep the objectively far worse guy out of power at all costs.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The original point was that pointing out that Biden is a right wing monster makes you a Trump Supporter, which is goofy.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world -1 points 11 months ago

Yes, that is goofy. I don't hate Biden as much as some, but I don't particularly like him, either. Still voting for him or whoever else the Democrats dredge up to keep fascism at bay.

[–] AntiOutsideAktion@lemmy.ml -4 points 11 months ago

He's not objectively far worse. He's arguably slightly worse.

[–] imnotfromkaliningrad@lemmy.ml -3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

im literally a russian communist you liberast piece of biological waste

[–] YeetPics@mander.xyz 0 points 11 months ago

Shhhh, we like nazi platforms here. Don't let the liberals find out the truth.
