Joe Biden, Senator from Citibank (oops, DELAWARE), to Run for President

Assassinate Joe Biden.

Have candidates that excite people to vote for them.

Bored now. Leaving now. You "win."

Ok get right on that milo

But again, this isn’t the poz vibez thread. Joe Biden is garbage, Joe Biden will always be garbage and the fact that he’s a pretty shit candidate is on the heads of your party machinery if he loses.

Noted. What a refreshing piece of information you have given this thread, which was previously devoid of that perspective. Truly you have spoken truth and now our eyes are opened due to these new and surprising facts that you have dropped upon our naive and uneducated minds

boe jiden

if posting the same thing over and over again were a crime we'd all be in the slammer

Ok fair point silby, lol

dental plan
lisa needs braces

leg-shoot plan
lisa needs bidens

ok lol

Milo a confirmed CIA agitator

Ugh this thread is like wandering over to a conversation at a social gathering, hearing the convo and regretting the approach, and quietly backing away

otm

ah, but you didn't do that LL, DID YOU?

I try to read it quickly and kind of through splayed fingers

I came back to see what was up and it was worse! Happy to back away again to wait for better conditions.

ie Biden drops dead soon to make way for __________

amazed how people on ilx hope for/count on death. can understand the wish, but people don't die because you want them to

unless you're HILLARY CLINTON

lmao

Hoping for and counting on are very different things!!

I hope I won’t get laid off this year but I’m not counting on it. I hope Joe Biden dies soon but very little depends on it.

Doesn’t mean I think Kamala Harris is better, either.

The funniest timeline would be Biden dying and Hilldawg being tapped as his replacement.

The absolute funniest timeline - but also worst, of course - would be Biden dying, Hilldawg getting the nod... and eating shit again.

xp you're right silby

just don't even see the point of hoping for, since it's so unlikely to happen, and it often almost reads as expecting it to happen

looool esby

??? If I expected something to happen I wouldn’t be hoping for it.

I hope I never die but I don’t expect that at all!

What do words even mean

just don't think fantasies about political enemies dying are worth it

Can we maybe not do "Hilldawg" please?

You may not mean it this way but it feels uncomfortably reminiscent of the Limbaugh Chelsea slur.

well then I know one door-to-door salesman that is going to be getting an extremely strongly worded letter

i guess we've moved on, but imo biden is not exhibiting signs of cognitive decline. i've listened to him do long interviews and he sounds like a person who's still dealing with the effects of a lifelong stutter, not a person who's developing dementia. as with trump, i think diagnosing someone from a distance is not a great idea.

That's a fair point

assigning diagnoses to Trump from the DSM-5 is a parlor game which tends to irritate most genuine psychiatrists. diagnosing Trump as a wretched specimen of humanity does not require any medical training, medical degree, or familiarity with the DSM-5.

someone reanimated him, and that person owes us an explanation

4, 8 12 years ago Biden didn't make it to the midpoint of a sentence and then mumble to the finish

ah, the super-articulate version of Joe Biden, who never stumbled mid-sentence, no matter how intricate the thought or its expression; I remember it well!!

I also am susceptible to implanted memories.

there was an entire column in slate dedicated to "bidenisms"

Plagiarizing British politicians is not quite the same thing as mumbling incoherently.

"Shoot 'em in the leg" isn't a sign of cognitive decline - that's just a sign that Biden's a piece of shit.

Being asked pretty much any question off the cuff and being unable to answer coherently, OTOH.

That's why I never found the stuttering explanation convincing; maybe I've forgotten, but it seemed to appear all of a sudden. The gaffes he's famous for were for what he said, not how he said it.

But as I said earlier--I know middle ground is not made for this thread--he's been better the last two or three times I've seen him.

milo, you seem happiest when posting the broadest possible negative characterizations and generalizations about Joe Biden, so far be it from me to suggest you should ever deprive yourself of this source of happiness. but wouldn't it be nice if, from time to time, you posted something to this thread that showed some depth or discernment, or even just a trace of novelty, as opposed to "Biden is a POS" over and over? it would inject a bit of variety into your contributions, differentiate you from those vile 'bots' that seem to be such a problem, and perhaps make you look like less of an ass.

FARTS

there, that's my levity for the day. it's 1:13 am so see u in 24 hours

wouldn't it be nice if, from time to time, you posted something to this thread that showed some depth or discernment

This is a thread about Joe Biden, not someone of actual value to the world.

re: biden's stutter, i think this article does a good job of explaining how the disorder affects a person in different situations, which i think is the reason biden comes across well in some settings (usually one-on-one interviews) and seems to struggle in others (like debates):

Went right back to your happy place, I see.
