Why would Biden want to be POTUS anyway??

[TitoFan]

Think about it. He's no spring chicken. He's paid his dues in life and can certainly do without the aggravation.

He would be inheriting a splintered country, more divided than ever before (but Trump is still nominated for a [cough, gag] Nobel Peace Prize).

He would be inheriting a country where Trump took all the credit for some of the groundwork by the Obama administration to get the economy headed in the right direction (economy lag time... economic indicators... and all that... if anyone cares to look).

And NOW... probably poised for some inevitable consequences of some Trump bonehead moves that may have THEIR effect on the economy sometime during the coming year.

Trump would NOT ride quietly off into the sunset. He'd remain on the sidelines, now as a disgruntled former President.... criticizing Biden the minute the guy put his feet on the bedroom floor every morning in the White House. Undermining every single decision made by Biden, and egging on his angry supporters to do the same. He would make life miserable for Biden, but now not just as a blowhard pest of a man who just won't go away... but as a former President, with all the power that unfortunately comes with it.

Trump would openly gloat over Biden's (and by extension the country's) misfortunes... and anyone who cares to dispute that statement seriously needs a reality check.

So all things considered..... why in HELL would anyone, especially a soon-to-be 78 year old man, want to be POTUS??

I asked myself the same question in 2016 about Donald Trump. This guy is a multi-billionaire with his own hotels and casinos and resorts and golf courses all over the world so why the hell would he want to run for president? So yes I can ask the same thing about Joe Biden who's eight years older than Trump was in 2016. Doesn't make any sense to me

I'm 56 right now and all I want to do once this pandemic is over is work part-time and take care of my health and travel. I would not be wanting to go back to Manhattan right now or Brooklyn and take a job in a financial company and work my ass off at 56 years old even if they paid me $2,000 a week

So I can't imagine what it must feel like at the age of 78 if it already feels like this at 56

Who would want to see their 78-year-old face smeared by the media everyday with articles about skin cancer and strokes and dementia and all the other stuff you know they have ready coming for Biden

Or maybe these people are all laughing in their sleeves and the joke is on the people who are watching this charade

For Trump it was one more trophy on the mantle. Shit named after me... check. My own reality TV show... check. Former model wife... check. Becoming President... check.

So true.........AND........

he can really market his ass off as ex-Prez with all kinds of appearances and business deals and connexions he's making now around the world (Saudi, etc.) I bet the whole fucking thing about Trump running was to just boost his income and his kids' incomes.

If he gave a fuck about Americans, he wouldve declared a mask mandate in March, like EVERY OTHER FUCKING COUNTRY ON EARTH. But oh no, Americans have to be different, defiant, muh freedom, etc.... and Trump just egged that on, he just encouraged that bullshit, never to this day saying people MUST wear a mask.

What a piece of shit. Thats why America now has 7, 500,000 cases and 211,000 deaths. No country on Earth even comes close.

Must be tired of being a two time 2nd place POTUS . I'd honestly throw my enthusiasm and full commitment behind a bowl of apple cinnamon oatmeal before I completely lined up for Biden. But Trump no longer even makes the table so. Tis is the system we're in

With syrup? Tons of breakfast references lately, you must really have an appetite. I couldnt ever vote for Biden. Its not possible. He's like a Weetabix thats been in warm milk for 40 minutes. (ha! another breakfast ref)

Obama dropped more bombs than Bush and go the Peace Prize.
He dropped more than 26000 in ONE year alone!!!
When he took power the US was in 2 wars. While in power he got involved in 5 more.
He caused a Genocide in Yemen and completely destroyed the most prosperous country in Africa - Libya.
He's a war criminal.

Now, what's Trump done that's made him less deserving?

[TitoFan]

Ok..... here we go again.

The ol' "Well, Obama was worse" line of defense.

I seriously need to pre-program the following response, so I don't have to type it out all the time... just press a button and done.


Anything Obama may or may not have done doesn't change the facts about Trump. Obama is no longer President. Trump is. If it were Obama under discussion, we'd discuss Obama. But it's not.

I guess it was for good reason that "It's Obama's fault" memes came out shortly after Trump took office. It quickly became the main "go-to" for Trump... and has been the slogan of Trumpers ever since.


So the logic here being... if I may presume... that even though Trump has encouraged and fueled the most divisive U.S. in recent history, including all the violence that has come with it... even though Trump's racist and exclusionist rhetoric has driven nut jobs to commit mass murders... Trump still deserves the Nobel Peace Prize because (cough) they gave it to Obama??



I just want to make sure I understand that logic because to me... it's just perpetuating the trashing of the award to the point that it's as worthless as Canelo's Franchise Champion belt.

You might as well pay $50 at a trophy shop and have a Nobel Peace Prize made out to your name.

But hey..... whatever floats your boat.

I definitely did not see in any way shape or form how Obama should have received that prize. THAT was perhaps the biggest joke I have seen in many many years regarding that well respected award that used to mean something.

But as far as Trump getting awarded the prize that is just about as big of a joke to me and I don't see how Obama's undeserved Nobel Peace prize in any way makes an argument for going ahead and awarding Trump that same prize

Donald Trump is friends with Saudi Arabia and turkey.... Just based off that alone how can he get the Nobel Peace prize?

[Beanz]

I think Spicoli nailed it with the always the bridesmaid never the bride thing. You do not have to be for Biden to see the massive hypocrisy of Trump. Just like you would not have had to have made excuses for Dronebama to criticize Trump.

At this point though if you still defending Trump in the US or Johnson in the UK, you are supporting the most blatantly corrupt, dishonest and traitorous leaders ever to lead each country.

Obama's award was widely criticized, and justly so. But the tired old argument of "well if so-and-so did it so can I" is childish at best. You don't continue to tarnish what to begin with is a fuzzy award with less than clear criteria and subject to political influences.

And of the two it's actually Trump looking to bypass a 33 year old missile technology control agreement between 34 Nations in order to propel Northrop Grumman Corp arms into new and previously suspect markets. The guy tears up arms control agreements like they were unwanted bills. The Military industrial Complex has a new bestest buddy in Trump. Sure he thought the Colonies took the British airports in 1776 and that we still had M4 Shermans 'rolling off the line' but you get the point. A drone for you, a drone for me, everyone gets a drone .

[NoSavingByTheBell]

His hatred of Iran is a tell-tale sign that Iran isnt with the program. Iran is no different, no more evil, than Saudi or Turkey or Syria. All the political bullshit about "state sponsors of terrorism" is just that: bullshit. Saudi and Turkey both have sponsored terrorism yet they are not on the black list. Saudi nor Turkey have paid any price for anything they have done wrong. Trump loves them, he thinks Erdogan is just great. Erdogan, who has arrested more journalists than ANYBODY, is just fine by Trump. Never mind Turkey was buying ISIS oil on the black market, never mind Turkey was killing Kurds who were American allies.

Never fucking mind you see, it's IRAN who is the evil one. Yes, it must be IRAN. Gee, any hard feelings there ya think from 1979? America is pissed off IRAN still exists, the Military-Industrial Complex and Rumsfeld and Bush and Cheney gave Saddam Hussein every fucking weapon he wanted in order to take out the Ayatollahs in Iran. But it was a stalemate and Iran and Iraq called a truce of sorts in 1988. Then the US decided it was wise to take out Saddam as he knew too much and he possessed too much. So now take a look at Iraq, what the cunts did to that country and their ancient ZIGGURATS, etc.

But Iran is still there like a thorn in America's side. America always has a thorn in its fucking side. So much so that they have military bases in 179 countries around the world.

YOu tell me who is the evil empire.

Just demonstrating that the award obviously has fuck all to do with peace.
And that Obama (as well as Trump) was a terrible president.
