Well Biden lost to Trump this time.
Even his own AG admitted that Trump lost to Biden. Trump continues to pretend he won, but the courts and every investigation has shown that Biden beat him handily. If people were paying attention a while back. Dec. 2019...

Biden Suggests He Would Only Serve One Term if Elected President

Advisers close to the candidate say he won’t run for reelection in 2024 if elected in 2020.

He was already hinting at what he'd to to Trump and the republicans.

How about the children and adults in the Ukraine who have and will die to the cluster bombs he sold to them (a war crime)?

Putin is more clearly concerned about the Russian troops getting killed by them. But he is the one using them in civilian areas, often far from the front:
As of July 1, hundreds of attacks by Russian forces with cluster munitions have already been recorded in the settlements of the Dnipropetrovsk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, Kyiv, Luhansk, Mykolaiv, Odesa, Sumy, Kharkiv, Kherson and Chernihiv regions.[4][5][6] 215 civilians are known to have been killed in these shellings and 474 injured, many of which may go unreported.

Last time I checked, the Russians were the ones bombing schools and hospitals.

Ukraine war: Revealed - the hundreds of schools and nurseries bombed in the first year of the conflict

Investigators at the Centre for Information Resilience have verified 381 strikes that damaged educational institutions in Ukraine, including some that took place hundreds of kilometres from the front line.

Putin is a fugitive from justice precisely because of his crimes against children in Ukraine. C'mon.

How about the people raped and murdered by illegals let into the nation on fraudulent asylum claims?
Given that illegal immigrants commit fewer violent crimes than native-born Americans, your story is simply a fantasy. Illegal aliens are the reason that El Paso, with the highest percentage of illegal aliens of any American city, is one of the safest cities in America.

I'd say that's a start...
Maybe you should read western media as well, and learn something besides Russian propaganda. You're easy prey for anyone who tracks what's going on in this war.

and don't forget, even though the FBI has been covering for Biden for the past 3 years....
Ah yes... "They are lying! Law enforcement, and judges, and people are all lying!!!" The final defense. Should have saved that for last, though; it marks you.

How about the Trump shooter and Trump....
Registered republican. Never-Trumper, maybe. So now your story is that Dark Brandon hired a republican to off Trump?

since it's now coming out that the FBI had contact with the shooter before his failed attempt yet they didn't make any effort to stop him or alert the Secret Service?
Well, let's take a look...

The F.B.I. has been scouring Mr. Crooks’s possessions since the shooting on Saturday — including two phones and at least one laptop — for clues about his motive. So far, they have found no indication that Mr. Crooks, who was a registered Republican, had strong partisan political views one way or another, bureau officials told lawmakers.

Nor have they uncovered any evidence of co-conspirators or connections to foreign actors, two top bureau officials said during the tense calls in which members of the House and Senate demanded answers about a nearly catastrophic failure to safeguard Mr. Trump.
The investigation is proving to be tricky. That was illustrated when officials on one of the calls said they were investigating the possibility that an account bearing Mr. Crooks’s name on the gaming platform Steam had previewed the attack, with a post saying he would make his “premiere” on July 13, the day of the shooting. But upon further examination, that now seems to have been a fake, according to law enforcement officials.
A more substantial development concerned the shooter’s state of mind. The officials told lawmakers that there was some indication that the gunman, who led a quiet life and worked at a nursing home near his house, might have been struggling with depression.
Officials singled out some of the searches on one of his cellphones, saying that he had looked up “major depressive disorder,” according to a person on the calls and another briefed on its contents.


That doesn't seem like much "contact." What do you have?

Do you even read your stuff over to see how it sounds to everyone else?

Who were his “victims”?
I am talking about all the aborted babies in Heaven that long to be reunited with their parents.

Matthew 19 14 But He said, “Leave the children alone, and do not forbid them from coming to Me; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”

Genesis 4:10 The LORD said, “What have you done? Listen! Your brother’s blood cries out to me from the ground.

Unfortunately, liberals don't believe the aborted babies in heaven are truly babies, but fetuses with no rights.

You're right, I personally agree, Joe Biden, as an abortion activist, absolutely has blood on his hands. Those who are opposed to abortion are apparently "anti-choice" and hypocrites according to the left.

I will NOT make this thread about abortion because that's inappropriate. So that will be my only comment.

Carry on.

Ask Kevin McCarthy and Donald Trump. Two losers who underestimated Biden.

After all, Biden never dozed off while he was being tried as a criminal.

Come to think of it, Biden was never even indicted as a criminal.
I bet Tara Reade would think differently.

Obama planned this out very carefully because his wife wants a female president.
We all know Harris is the one running the show. Let's be honest here.

In Psalm 139 16 God writes the book of our life AT conception. He gives us all of our gifts, talents and abilities. I had a dream about my daughter in Heaven and an angel was reading her book so he would help her to become the person God created her to be. There is nothing they want more than for their parents to repent so they can go to Heaven to be with them. That does not happen very often. My daughter is there because of an IUD and I did not know that could cause an abortion. So we need to be very careful with birth control.

You are absolutely correct. In fact, the more that is learned about Joe Biden and Kamala Harris as well as the rest of the leaders of the Democratic Party, the more reasons that I have to consider them to be the very worst leaders and politicians that America has ever had in my lifetime.

I can't say Joe is the worst president in my lifetime....because I genuinely don't believe that he was running anything.

I'm being 100% honest about that.

To take his border policies as an example....he systematically stripped back who was to be prosecuted and who was to be sent back to their homelands from January 2021 all the way to earlier this year. That's intentional....not accidental. It got to the point where entire Venezuelan prison gangs were crossing 1 person at a time. Men on terrorist watch lists were being released into the US and then rounded up later. This isn't the actions of a center-left Democrat....it's some far left nutjob in his inner circle that doesn't believe in "borders" and he's just rubber stamping these executive orders and policy changes.

This changed rather quickly in early June this year when he just passed an executive order denying asylum, categorically, for a vast number of nations. This immediately resulted in a significant decrease in entries and apprehensions....and while it is currently being challenged in the courts, it's obvious to even the dimmest of voters that he could have done this at quite literally any time.

These are economic migrants making fraudulent asylum claims. The Democratic Party knows this....that's why they don't deport them after their asylum is denied and they push for them to get work permits. Why give work to a fraudulent asylum seeker who is going to be deported? Simple....because they aren't actually seeking asylum and are trying to find work.

These actions aren't some mystery. They're clearly the actions of people around Biden who know they don't have to seek election, and won't be held accountable for these wildly bad decisions.

The complete mismanagement of the border isn't accidental. It could be the idea of Harris....or she could just be the one unfortunately named as responsible....but I don't think Joe actually runs anything. All of our enemies internationally have clearly understood just how bad things are in this administration and have taken advantage. There's never been a better time for Russia to invade the Ukraine, Hamas to attack Israel, and associated terrorist groups like Hezbollah and ISIS to join the assault on our allies or sneak their agents across the southern border.

There's never been a worse time to allow 10 million people into the US with record levels of inflation and massive price gouging that is both directly and indirectly a result of this administration's mismanagement of fiscal policy. As a whole, it appears as if no one who is making these decisions had any concerns about being held accountable for the consequences.

Joe still had some mental capacity in 2021...and even I was fooled into thinking his decline was being exaggerated. By 2022 though, it was clear that he was severely impaired and that's why he wad largely hidden from the public.

Is Joe responsible for this administration's failures? Obviously...he's in the driver's seat. Is Harris responsible for the border crisis? Yup...she was announced as in charge of the problem....despite what seems to be a total absence of any leadership on the issue. Is this administration the worst in my lifetime? No doubt...they had to change the way they defined recessions, had to change the way the counted crime, and have to compare the poor state of the economy currently to how badly they destroyed it in 2021 to claim they've made progress.

Saying that the economy is better than it was immediately after they screwed it up with lock-downs and rampant money printing. Trump had a bad year economically in 2020 because of a global pandemic that hurt every nation economically....but this administration has done a poor job the entire 4 years.

Harris shouldn't be running on "I'm not Trump"....she should be running on "I'm not Biden, and I'm going to fire all the incompetent people who have been making his decisions for him for the past 3 years." She shouldn't be running on the idea that Trump is a threat to democracy....but instead, admit that out of the last 2 presidential elections and the current one, the Democratic Party has only had 1 primary and she's got a plan to fix that so that the Democratic Party is no longer a threat to democracy.

I know that officially....Biden is responsible for the state of the union....but realistically, the man couldn't plan a picnic and it's obvious others have been recklessly running the administration with no real accountability.

It's part of the left's current problem of not having any real values as a party.
Remember when the republicans were the "values party?"

Trump betrayed three wives in a row in adultery, lost millions for slandering a woman he sexually assaulted, had to pay out millions in damages for his fake "Trump University" scam, and is a convincted criminal. That's republican values these days.

Obama and Biden remained faithful to their spouses, and didn't commit crimes. That's democrat values now.

Your choice.

Maduro and Trump call them "criminals" because they were agitating for free and honest elections. As you know, Trump agrees with Maduro that free and honest elections are a bad idea.

This is why illegal immigrants are less likely to commit violent crimes than native-born Americans. Would you like me to show you that, again? Write it down this time, um?
These are economic migrants making fraudulent asylum claims. The Democratic Party knows this....that's why they don't deport them after their asylum is denied and they push for them to get work permits.
Mostly because Biden's bill increasing the number of immigration courts to more quickly determine who should be deported, was not passed by the republican House, because Trump told them that it would make things politically difficult for him, if Biden was able to speed up the process.

Didn't they report that in Pravda?

Joe still had some mental capacity in 2021...and even I was fooled into thinking his decline was being exaggerated. By 2022 though, it was clear that he was severely impaired and that's why he wad largely hidden from the public.
Last year, one-on-one with Kevin McCarthy, Biden completely outsmarted him. Even republicans admitted it. Maybe McCarthy isn't the brightest guy in Washington, but he was the brightest guy in the republican party at the time. Don't be so gullible.

Saying that the economy is better than it was immediately
Well, wages are rising faster than prices. Which wasn't true under Trump. Inflation is declining, which wasn't true under Trump. There are more jobs in America now than when Biden came into office. On Trump's watch, the number of jobs declined.

after they screwed it up with lock-downs

On March 16, the Trump administration announced guidelines for "15 days to slow the spread." It said, "Governors of states with evidence of community transmission should close schools in affected and surrounding areas." Guidelines also called for people to work from home "whenever possible," avoid restaurants except for takeout, and avoid discretionary travel and shopping.

The administration later extended guidelines to 30 days


Did you honestly not know this?

Harris shouldn't be running on "I'm not Trump"....she should be running on "I'm not Biden, and I'm going to fire all the incompetent people who have been making his decisions for him for the past 3 years."
Even Mitch McConnell applauded Biden's infrastructure initiative. Didn't you notice? The economy is doing remarkably well, particularly compared with Trump's failures.

.but realistically, the man couldn't plan a picnic
And yet Biden outsmarted the best the republicans could come up with, and defeated the self-proclaimed "best president ever." And now he's completely blindsided Trump by merely deciding not to run again. As he suggested years ago. And the polls reflect Trump's inability to deal with it.

If so, it's surprising that it's you guys always trying to find some evil genius pulling strings. Paranoia only explains so much of that stuff.
But thanks for the consideration to tell us what you need to be telling yourself.
I'm not inventing them for you. That's pretty much a self-help project on the right.

convincted criminal.
Trump is NOT a convicted criminal. He is still innocent until they reach a decision on the appeal. That is the law of the land that you seem to show a lot of disrespect for. But be that as it may if he is so horrible why did people elect him president for four years? Do they know something about Trump that you do not seem to know?
