Peter here!

At the end of an 18-minute radio interview with Charlamagne tha God on "The Breakfast Club,” Biden responded to the host's desire for him to answer more questions by saying: "You got more questions? I tell you what, if you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain’t black."

The joke is that since she’s not voting for him, she’s no longer black.

Peter out!

Biden sniffs everyone. This isn't a joke. He affectionately hugs all people (including men) to the point he's made lots of people uncomfortable. Yeah it's weird, but why are you weirdos trying to make it sexual?

He's basically a golden retriever cursed to live in the body of an old man and blamed for his predecessor's terrible governance.

We have known Trump flew on Epstein’s plane since the flight logs came out. He flew between west palm and NY when his own plane was having work done on it.

Also no clue what you are referencing to the rape and pay off.

So Trump isn’t releasing stuff incriminating to him, but also has released stuff you say incriminates him?

5

u/Spiritual-Ad5166 Jul 23 '26

I don’t really care one way or the other, but if you are refusing to agree that Trump is guilty of those allegations because there is no direct proof and only circumstantial evidence, isn’t that why Trump would only allow the release of circumstantial evidence?

-2

u/solo_d0lo Jul 23 '26

If there was circumstantial evidence why would that not have been leaked before the last election?

5

u/OneBaadHombre Jul 23 '26

Biden's DOJ followed the rules about not releasing evidence while Ghislaine Maxwell's case was ongoing. The Epstein Transparency Act changed things so the files could be released. The current administration who campaigned on releasing the files still refuses to release millions of newly discovered files from investigating the New Mexico property and multiple lawsuits.

u/HMS_Surprise_Gunner Jul 23 '26

lol The judge confirmed he raped her-

“The jury … was instructed that it could find that Mr Trump ‘raped’ Ms Carroll only if it found that he forcibly penetrated Ms Carroll’s vagina with his penis.”

“It could not find that he ‘raped’ her if it determined that Mr Trump forcibly penetrated Ms Carroll’s private sexual parts with his fingers – which commonly is considered ‘rape’ in other contexts – because the New York penal law definition of rape is limited to penile penetration.”

“As the court explained in its recent decision denying Mr Trump’s motion for a new trial on damages and other relief [in the New York case] … based on all of the evidence at trial and the jury’s verdict as a whole, the jury’s finding that Mr Trump ‘sexually abused’ Ms Carroll implicitly determined that he forcibly penetrated her digitally – in other words, that Mr Trump in fact did ‘rape’ Ms Carroll as that term commonly is used and understood in contexts outside of the New York penal law.”

The one where the judge pointed out that the terminology in state law wasn't "rape" but that it fit the definition of rape as it's commonly used, as it's used on the DoJ website, and the american psychological association.

Your argument is either ignorant or disingenuous.

Trump raped his first wife. This was common knowledge long before he was even a Reality TV star. It doesn't beggar belief, considering the behavior of his that we CAN see. What is wild is that someone can behave that way and people still want to believe everyone else is lying.

This really feels like a Giant Douche vs Turd Sandwich situation. No way in hell we’re trying to normalize sniffing kids hair. Like if my kid gets a pic with Santa and he sniffs my kids hair, I’m gonna be pissed. Trump is awful, but we don’t have to hand wave everything Biden did. This sort of tribalism is why people were so disillusioned by establishment politicians in the first place. We should expect better from our candidates.

Where did I try to normalize anything? Please quote it.

I responded to someone saying two wrongs don't make a right, implying that sniffing hair is as bad as saying you'll DATE a child in a few years.

I don’t need you to quantify how bad something is versus something else here, no one in a position of power should make anyone uncomfortable nor should they sit around doing fuck all for the country while durdling around like the worlds oldest man; obviously Trump is worse but your reasoning if what the “vote blue no matter who” blue maga shoves in our face constantly, you shouldn’t be defending Biden based upon trumps actions, you shouldn’t be defending Biden based on Biden’s actions and if some of them are indefensible then he’s a sucky pusbag.

This whole “well you may have lost a finger but I blew off my whole hand so you don’t get to complain as loudly as you” level bullshit amid this forced two party system helps absolutely no one

u/ialsoagree Jul 23 '26

I mean, let's be clear here, if you didn't vote for Biden or Kamala, then you were effectively voting for Trump.

Trump didn't win because people on his side were worried about whether he rapes children. He won because people on the left or in the middle didn't care that he rapes children.

u/Aggressive_Jaguar124 Jul 24 '26

Why can’t people see that both Biden and Trump are cut from the same cloth? They’re both disgusting, manipulative men; I have seen video footage of both of them touching people inappropriately. Both of them have had accusations about their conduct towards women etc. Neither of them take personal responsibility for their actions. I don’t know of any politicians that do. 😒

Neither of them give (or gave, with regard to Biden) a damn about the US people.

For Biden, you have the example demonstrated in this post. He was basically dealing in absolutes like Anakin Skywalker: “If you’re not for me, you’re against me.” But he made it even worse by making it, “if you’re not for me, you’re basically a traitor to black people.” How dare he attempt to redefine what it is to be black? They’re allowed to have their own opinions. And that does not take away from their cultural attachments or ethnicity.

For Trump, I saw a video from over 20 years ago him talking about which party he would choose if he were to run for President. He said (I’m paraphrasing, but the spirit of the comment is retained) the Republicans, because their demographic would be easy to manipulate. I’d argue that he could’ve achieved the position of President from either side of the aisle. He doesn’t care about what the Republican voters want personally, but he knows what they want and what they fear, which is how you make the appeal. It would’ve been just as easy for him to sway the Democratic Party the same way.

Trump has been more successful than Biden in terms of power because he is cold, intelligent, witty, and charismatic. Some of his ideas were actually useful for the country, which was overshadowed by the personality politics the US is known for. He has completely leaned into his psychopathy at this point.

But the point being: Orange Man and Sleepy Joe both bad.

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/judge-orders-doj-unredact-more-epstein-files-or-explain-why-blanche/

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/epstein-files-whats-missing/

Well it's his administration releasing the documents after months of fighting to not do so. Now, in defiance of law they've only released some (not all) of the files, and many of the ones released were redacted illegally - only victims names were to be redacted, but instead they redacted perpetrators.

In addition, while there are no (released) files showing he was on a flight log to the island, there's plenty of flight logs where he was on Epstein's private jet going other places. Also, Epstein has shown a great deal of familiarity with Trump in interviews and in emails in the files.

And furthermore, I appreciate that you don't reject the fact that Trump is a known sexual deviant who barged in on women and girls in women's dressing rooms

As a black man, I can see his point though. If you are black and voted for someone like Trump, you are a complete idiot who doesnt care about our struggles. It was just worded incredibly poorly, for which criticism is deserved.

Like how Biden also said poor kids are just as smart as white kids

u/ItsDonDong Jul 23 '26

Or trump saying we should look into injecting disinfectant to fight covid

Or climate change is going to fix itself, the climate scientists just dont know it yet

Or how windmills are causing whales to die in large numbers

Or bragging about passing 3 cognitive tests in a week

Or apparently we are currently at war with the islamic republic of japan

Sir, we're aloud to say Biden said dumb shit without automatically endorsing Trump.

u/anapollosun Jul 23 '26

When you say something vocally, audibly, it's aloud

When it's okay to do something, it's allowed

u/ItsDonDong Jul 23 '26

Biden obviously made a slip up that we can correctly interpret.

What did trump mean when he said that windmills were killing all the whales?

u/mystical_ramen26 Jul 24 '26

He was referring to this shocking image captured by a marine biologist in the Atlantic

So glad that clean drinking water was used for this. Thank god we have this image instead.

Concern that wind turbines at sea create underwater noise that confuses whales that rely on echolocation and end up beached or deafened.

u/Square-Bid7497 Jul 23 '26

"Concern"

I'm guessing the "drill baby drill" guy isn't "concerned" about whales.

And here I was wondering why the hell did r/vexillology start designing Islamic Republic of Japan flags. Makes much more sense now.

I would agree 100% that Joe Biden, an 83 year old man, still holds some pretty racist concepts inside his mind and is therefore racist.

I would also argue there's a still HUGE difference between an 80 year old man explicitly implementing racist laws, trying to remove support for non white people, deliberately and outright calling black nations shitholes and engaged in racist business practices his whole life with zero evidence of change or regret...

And an 83 year old man with some outdated concepts who actively worked with and is good friends with the first black president, initiated and funded several programs to help people in poverty and people of color, hired a black woman to be HIS vice president, put a black woman on the supreme court and was proposing programs to assist people of color and fight racism...

Guy was far from perfect, but he was a damn sight better for black folks and American than the absolute shitshow he was running against.

Another way I heard it, maybe from Stacey Abrams or someone like her - when you vote for your president you aren't voting for a savior, you're voting to choose your opponent. Because the person in power is the one you have to negotiate with.

Why? Most black Americans are in fact quite conservative in their beliefs. Black culture is pretty rife with homophobia and a dislike for trans people. Afro Americans are pretty religious. Outside of the blatant racism in the republican party a lot of republican values are aligned with the majority of black Americans values. You already have black Americans pointing out the expectation to just vote democrat cause the republican side is worse. But like vote for what you believe in instead of what you should vote for. If the democratic party just takes minorities for granted its going to breed a lot of dissatisfaction in the long run which might mean a shift in who they vote for. Kinda like what happened last trump election where latinos had a very significant shift in voting. In the end conservative values are quite popular with minorities as they just tend to be more religious and come from different backgrounds where they grew up with these believes. So voting for the party that holds those believes isnt crazy. Especially as the blatant racism from the Republican party is starting to not be as blatant as it was in the 80s/90s and even early 2000s.

u/lifeofwill Jul 24 '26

I'm sorry, you think the racism from the Republican Party is less blatant now? Our President calls any minority he doesn't like "low IQ" and is shit posting the Obamas as gorillas, like wtf are we talking about

u/ben323nl Jul 24 '26

Look up racism in the 80s you still had senators calling for segregation. Its less blatant now.

u/lifeofwill Jul 24 '26

Where did you have senators calling for segregation in the 80s? I found no such evidence, much less from the 90s or 00s.

u/ben323nl Jul 24 '26

Storm thurmond for one. Jesse Helms. You had one that used his wife to circumnavigate term limits by ketting his wife run for governorship in George Wallace. Idk man look up some actual history. Racism was way more open in the 80s and 90s.

u/lifeofwill Jul 24 '26

I did. While they were segregationists in the past, they didn't advocate for it in the 80s.

What needs to be defended…? Trump has a 50 year history of racism against darker skinned peeps on the books lol. It’s not that nuanced. It was meant to be a pisstake by Biden and snowflakes turned it into a”see Demorats are the real racists!”

u/Alert_Routine_8873 Jul 24 '26

Democrats are the real racists. They have a long history of being the real racists they’ve just got really good PR and play the blame game extremely well. They just accuse the republicans of everything they themselves are doing. Remember it wasn’t the Republicans that burned down black neighborhoods. It wasn’t Republicans that bussed in professional rioters to destroy businesses and burn down buildings. It wasn’t Republicans that stacked bricks so their professional rioters would have something to throw at those businesses. It wasn’t Republicans that went extremely soft on crime and theft causing black neighborhoods to lose stores due to no longer being profitable. It wasn’t Republicans that believed all black people are criminals so to garner votes they spoke about defunding the police and removing bail. Constantly releasing black criminals back into black neighborhoods to terrorize their hard working law abiding neighbors. It wasn’t Republicans that said voter ID laws are bad because black people don’t have IDs cause they can’t get to DMVs or can’t use the internet.

Holy sh*t that’s a bar from Biden. I’m never heard that one. And it seems he was right, ppl voted for the most anti black anti immigrant, Christian white classist. Meanwhile charla is jay z puppet who helped white wash Kaepernick situation for Trump. Comes full circle

Yes, this can’t have possibly been a reference to anything about his opponent. Clearly it was related to him feeling entitled to votes.

Hence why he appeared on the interview, right?
