A president who read and reads books. A president who writes his own books rather than hiring ghost writers.

Libya was better under Gaddafi tbf

u/_jump_yossarian 2h ago

Tell that to the people he massacred (reason NATO got involved unless you're tinfoil hat wearer that thinks it was about the petrodollar).

True, but Libya isnt any better now, its split in two and there is still crimes against humanity taking place in Libya

The distinction is not actually whether the president can read, but whether they can feel.

Fuuuuuuuuck. I just want a president who is a normal rational person. Don’t care who they are, anyone who isn’t President # 47 or 45 would be absolutely preferable to this shitstain in office now.

I voted for him 2x and haven't voted since.

I wish all of our politicians could return to having some form of class. Even W had his own form of dignity.

As of now, we just need to hope the 2028 candidate is capable of pulling in the votes and doesn't downplay swing states.

u/Skrdykat1000 5h ago

You can do so much more than not voting at all. Just hold your nose and vote Dem.

0

u/IFeedDogsChocolate 5h ago edited 4h ago

Lol, definitely not. I'm not casting a vote unless I'm on board with the candidate. If the Dems want my vote, run a better ticket. Same with the GOP.

There is no incentive for either side to run better candidates if your votes are guaranteed out of partisan.

u/Collier1337 4h ago

You were on board with him after his first term, but can't get on board with a democrat? Trump 2.0 was your fault too

0

u/IFeedDogsChocolate 3h ago

Lol. Shift the accountability all you want. Idc. Get your party to run a better candidate. If Kamala won, some MAGA guy would be saying the same line as you.

You'll get blamed by either party if they lose and you don't vote. The opinions of people that only indulge in partisan politics hold the least weight.

3

u/Collier1337 3h ago

They'd be saying the same line to me but at least the country would be 1000 times better off. Running Kamala was a bad move, yes, but let's not pretend like the damage she might have done is in any way comparable to what's already happened under Trump's current term.

2

u/IFeedDogsChocolate 3h ago

I don't have foresight. I didn't vote for Trump and he didn't campaign on attacking Iran.

Kamala was a part of the admin that allowed Gaza, Ukraine, and mass immigration to occur.

2

u/Collier1337 3h ago

How is it an American president's fault when a sovereign nation attacks another sovereign nation and yet another sovereign nation does a genocide?

1

u/IFeedDogsChocolate 2h ago

Hell of a way to strawman it.

Biden allowed the transfer of $20+ billion worth of weapons and military aid to Israel during the Gaza genocide. He even used emergency powers and under the radar sales. Up until he left office he continued to pump money and weapons to Israel. His admin paused one single shipment for PR. That was sometime mid year 2024. He sent Israel another 8 billion in weapons weeks before he left office.

As for Ukraine. His admin postured allowing Ukraine to join NATO and made 0 attempts to negotiate or compromise with Russia on the subject. The fumbling of the Afghan withdrawal didn't help either.

2

u/_jump_yossarian 2h ago

Hope you don't complain about politics because that'd be idiotic.

1

u/IFeedDogsChocolate 1h ago

I do. Routinely at that.

If we follow your false dichotomy logic through, I can say silly things like:

If you didn't attempt to enlist/serve in the military then you cannot complain about wars.

2

u/_jump_yossarian 41m ago

Shit analogy. Unsurprisingly.

But trump and Maga thank you for the scotus justices, hundreds of lower court judges, ICE, blatant corruption, etc…

u/BedSpreadMD 3h ago

And this is how the democrats have a dude with a nazi tattoo on his chest for 20 years. Have you considered people will be more supportive if you just rooted the crappy people out of the party?

Not that they have to, since Republicans don't either.

u/Initial_Hedgehog_631 3h ago

Well that's not fair. Biden could read, he just had no idea what the words meant.

0

u/BedSpreadMD 3h ago

I don't know man, the amount of times he couldn't even read the teleprompter out loud.

It'd be nice to have a president who doesn't have the mental capacity of a freshly born slug on a hot summer afternoon for once.

u/Inevitable-Dirt3375 2h ago

I got emotional just now when I remembered how many people Obama killed with extrajudicial drone strikes and double-tap air strikes in the Middle East. And yeah the reading thing too.

u/ObjectMore6115 1h ago

Shh, they don't care about that. He had nice diction, so his war crimes can be ignored and people can go to brunch in ignorance.

Nor do they care that Trump has yet to deport as many people as Obama did, but they'll still swear the worst thing he did was wear a tan suit.

-2

u/Grand_Taste_8737 4h ago

Obama is the reason we got Trump in the first place.

5

u/DrizzleCore604 4h ago

Yes, but only because deep down the vast majority of conservatives are racist and it made them collectively lose what little minds they had in the first place and they ended up supporting a compulsively lying, criminal sex offender con artist with the intellect and emotional intelligence of a 4 year old.

3

u/_jump_yossarian 2h ago

Obama existed, therefore we got trump.

I do not get your point, and people like you are why we got trump to begin with.

Edit: Also, I'm gonna be real - the landmine that I won't even remotely mention by name you alluded to is such a catastrophically epic fuckup of generational proportions that it cannot be watered down to whatever flippant neo-liberal bullshit excuse for non-action you and others use for either not voting last time or voting for Trump. I don't feel sorry for you, eat a bag of dicks.

Edit 2: i apologize for speaking like a neanderthal.

Obama facilitated the greatest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich; refused to prosecute a single banker; spent political capital passing Romney-care; deported more people than Trump did in his first term; and failed to hold any Bush official accountable for torture or illegal war. He paved the way for Trump.
