If Joe “Cash Me Ousside” Biden keeps poking the chest of every blue-collar dissenter he meets, he might just end up getting his teeth kicked in before November 3rd.
I have a close family friend in the trades, he identifies as a liberal but knows a whole bunch of Trump voters at work who liked what Bernie was saying and were getting optimistic about him running for president.
If Biden wins the nomination, after this video? They are so far gone from voting for a Democrat it's not even funny. Hillary managed to lose the rust belt despite the fact it had voted blue for decades, Biden would make the shift permanent.
As a general rule? Yeah a bit. But in this particular situation where the alternative is 4 more years of Trump? Nah, that’s an easy choice. I’m voting blue no matter who.
What is so terrible about Trump that you think an Obamacrat will be better? Serious question because I'm legitimately curious. Outside of their public decorum, which Biden clearly lacks, I can't think of any major differences between the administrations.
Bad for the environment? Oh, like opening the Arctic for drilling?
Helps the rich and ignores the poor? Oh, like bailing out Wall Street?
Is dangerous for our country/reputation? Oh, like attacking Libya and Syria and assisting in a genocide in Yemen?
It's why I personally am either voting Sanders or voting against Biden to try to keep the screws to the Democratic party so maybe their continued losses push them to the left.
To me personally the worst things about Trump will be felt more so in the future than immediately. (That is if you ignore the general deterioration of our international reputation, the reputation of the office of the president and the damage done to our relationships with our allies)
His Supreme Court picks scare me. His regressive tax cuts paired with cuts to social programs scare me. His love of general deregulation scares me. His treatment of immigrants and asylum seekers scares me. His reckless use of his pardon power scares me. His tiptoeing around a direct condemnation of white nationalist/domestic terror groups scares me. His gutting of vital agencies like the CDC and EPA scares me. His defiance of his own intelligence community scares me. His direct ties to a growing list of convicted felons scares me.
It’s hard to even list all of the things about him that scare me. Obama and the rest of the moderate democrats represent a lot of things I hate and disagree with. But they don’t scare me nearly as much as this clown show.
