I saw a wave of red hats
That’s because you’re in a cult, Tim. I know exactly zero people that are hard-core Biden supporters. Those of us that voted for him picked the “not Trump” option. And, unfortunately, it looks like I’ll have to pick that option again.
I voted for Sanders in the primary (twice). But nobody should compare Biden with Sanders, we should compare Biden with other presidents who were able to get elected and achieve progress. Biden was the best president of the past 50 years. If you disagree, name a president who was better. If you are looking for a hard-core Biden supporter, I am raising my hand as an extremely proud one.
Sanders was not able to get elected due to the Democratic party preferring to lose rather than put forward an honest to god progressive.
Except that they won. So it had nothing to do with “preferring to lose”. Primary voters probably thought Sanders would lose, but I do not agree.
Bootlicker says what?
I just love that these fuckin clowns thought they were going to be embraced by the libertarian party, the party of vermin supreme, the party who famously booed their presidential candidate (Gary Johnson) for saying he felt that driver’s licenses were a reasonable regulation. There’s not a single political party in the US that’s more contentious, purity-tested, and just downright difficult on purpose than the LP. Most people who know a libertarian really know an embarrassed republican, not a true believer like these folks. Folks, people at the event that Trump and Kennedy showed up to were handing out rubber chickens to harass and heckle the candidates as they spoke, and forced the secret service to go around confiscating rubber chickens. Biden was honestly smart to leave the LP on read when they invited him, nothing good could have possibly come from it, but these two fuckin dorks, especially Trump, thought it would be great because they didn’t do twenty seconds of homework. “Hmm, let me look at the Libertarian Presidential debates on YouTube” should have been enough to make them go “nah, dawg, I’m out, here’s a canned letter, please vote for me, bye”.
So, Trump got (rightfully) heckled by the people at that event, because the true believers hate authority and aren’t about that Christian Fascism shit. Trump’s used to hecklers, but he’s also used to the crowd shouting them down for him, not the whole ass crowd clowning on him with rubber chickens. IIRC, he ended up just walking off stage once it was clear that the libertarians were just there to dunk on him. It’s not a good look for dear leader that he couldn’t put the most contentious people in American politics under his spell, and anyone who points out that the emperor is naked in Trump land gets the window, so they’re just going to lie their asses off about it.
Technically, Johnson was not yet their candidate. That claim was made during a primary debate. He would go on to be the nominee though
This is true; I chose brevity over total accuracy in this case.
Poor Tim Scott sees this quote as his only shot at relevancy. “SAD!”
Yeah, you know what, he’s probably right. And I admit this is scary. This vote determines the amount of damage he is capable of. He tried overthrowing the government once, he will try to do it again. Either covertly or overtly.
So what about the boos? So many people who are republican said no to Trump and fell in line anyway. Who do the “never Trump” folks vote for? I’m not sure if it is possible to poll voters about this or gage interest before the election actually happens.
When reality doesn’t match their expectations these people just reinvent reality. a) Is he completely insane, b) is he in total denial, or c) is he a desperate gaslighter? That’s the million dollar question. But those are the three types of republicans.
Why not all three?
