    But it isn't even remotely true. It is simply made up by people who can't accept that Biden is a far superior POTUS than Trump could ever hope to be.

    For a man that is 'barely coherent' he is managing to get an awful lot down in very quick time.

    Stubbling over a few words is not being barely coherent. Everone knows what his plans for the vaccines are, the rollout, his position on masks, what he thinks about governors repealing the requirement for mask wearing, what he wanted in terms of bailout relief, where he stands on climate change and much more.

    People behind him are getting it done, he is someone they roll out every so often to bumble a "speech" and take no questions interestingly enough ... must be that stutter (that he never had back when he was VP) ...

    That "barely coherent" guy obliterated Trump in the debates, the first one was so bad for Trumo that he ran away from.the second one and only came out for the third because he knew he was losing.

    Obliterated Trump !! :D:D

    Deluded !!

    Not doing his approval ratings much harm.

    So Joe isn't virtue signalling. Thought that.

    Nope - he doesn't play games, that's why he chose Kamela as a running mate. The same woman who said she believed people who accused Biden of inappropriate behaviour.

    Nothing at all to do with capitalising on the BLM and metoo movements for votes.

    He probably hates her guts but gaining power is more important.

    It's hilarious that the same people who imagine Trump to be the worst leader of all time somehow think Biden is Jesus reincarnate.

    Everything I've read about Biden, and everything I've heard and everything I've seen, let's me know that he is an infinitely better human being than Trump.

    Well, since his son Beau was great friends with her and she said as much in her memoir, I would suspect Biden doesn't hate her in the slightest. In fact, there's every indication that they're on good terms. Biden and her were first introduced via his son.

    I've seen nobody referring to him in such worshipping tones tbh. He's just viewed as a stable leader in contrast to what came before. Plus he's a hard worker. So that's obviously gonna be viewed as much better.

    Trump is rude and brash and I certainly wouldn't want to be on his bad side.

    That said, is a bomb dropped by Biden friendlier than a Trump bomb?

    Biden is better at being polite and presidential. Does that mean he is a better person? Don't confuse cynical agreeableness for good character.

    Let's see the body count after 4 years.

    What evidence have you on this?

    But you do know that the POTUS doesn't actually just sit in his office on his own all day making up laws and policy, don't you?

    You do understand that they have teams around them, a cabinet even.

    POTUS is the head of the organisation, like a CEO. They don't actually stock the shelves. But they lead, they inspire, they create policy and culture. They set goals and targets and drive people to achieve.

    I get you don't like him, but try to be a bit unbiased and look at the facts, rather than your, or I imagine, others opinions.

    When did her memoir come out I wonder? Before or after the was running mate.

    I do not trust them one bit. She was convinced Biden was a sex pest at one point. I'd say he personally doesn't like her at all.

    If Biden and Trump did exactly the same action do you really think the media or chattering masses would spin it the same way?

    You seem to be suggesting that less bombs/deaths = better person.

    So do you believe that Obama is a better person than Trump?

    And compare it to what?

    You can't compare to Trumps because when he realised that his administration had dropped more bombs in one year than the previous had dropped in four years they stopped reporting on bombs dropped/deaths.

    No, I am just critical of people who judge a person by their tone or manner rather than their actions.

    Democrats are all tone and all manners and all smoke and mirrors.

    What did Biden do in 40 years of politics? What are all these dreadful things that Trump did in 4 years that Biden is now going to fix?

    You're in a pub and see a man, he is loud, obnoxious towards the staff, pushes people.out of the way and is in general being a dick.

    Do you think to yourself "He's a right dickhead"?

    Or do you think to yourself "He seems like a lovely chap"?

    I think it matters where the bombs land and who they kill.

    Trump was anti globalisation and an anti-interventionist. Biden is very much the opposite. The potential for the US getting into a new war increased substantially when Biden came to power. Let's see how this plays out.

    The lovely chap knifes someone outside and the loud obnoxious person runs to the victims aid.

    Don't kid yourself, the nice guy act is just that. I've seen Biden angry. He's brutal.

    It came out in January 2019 and their friendship and the work they did is well documented. In 2015 when Beau died, there was a list of 60 people who should first know about his death, she was on the list. She made an instagram post about the funeral at the time and described him as a "dear friend"... So I would imagine her being friends with Beau means Biden has a lot of respect for her.

    She said she believed accusers in relation to him being bad with boundaries. Which he publicly apologised for.

    Trump armed Saudi Arabia... He actively contributed to war crimes by doing so.

    Nope, because the bombs Trump dropped in a war that Obama started still makes most of those bombs Obama's responsibility as well, they wouldn't have been dropped without him after all.


    Now Biden wants back into America's forever wars as the seals clap and cheer.

    Why do you believe Trump a better person than Obama?

    You previously incorrectly labelled Obama as the king of the drone strikes when a quick Google would have told you you were wrong.

    Now you're telling us to wait for Biden's body count after 4 years before deciding if he is a good person or not.

    Yet you now know that Trump's body count after 2 years was higher than Obama's body count after 8 years and yet you still just said that you don't think Obama is a better person than Trump.

    So why do we need to wait 4 years to see Biden's body count since that body count number doesn't even determine for you let alone us if someone is a good person or not?

    another example of ncie guy Biden.

    Can you imagine working for such a bully?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,893 ✭✭✭✭Timberrrrrrrr




    Just one example of Biden the nice guy. He's a pig.

    What's so bad about that? What does he say that makes him a "pig" in your opinion?

    He should just stand there and nod/smile while someone makes false accusations? At least we know Biden has balls to stand up to people.

    That is some of the worst logic I have ever heard on my Boards in my 16 years here. Amazing.

    Do you know what Biden was doing in his first few weeks in office? Un****ing things with Executive Orders.

    If Trump wanted to reduce or stop the drone strikes, he could have. Instead, there were more drone strikes in Trump's first two years than in Obama's entire eight years. Would you like to explain why such a large increase was necessary?

    What policies of Joe Biden do you not support? What is your political alignment, and what changes would you make to the USA if you were running it?

    Biden has the "balls" to intimidate potential voters. He's a bully. He's also been accused of assault.

    I wish people could cut through all the obvious propaganda and see the man for what he is.

    Yes. Accusations make someone a bad person. That's how that works.

    Trump also made accusations of election fraud. Guess that means there was election fraud. Case closed.

    Pretty pathetic attempt at dragging a good man down to your level, you should be ashamed of yourself, except it's obvious that you have no shame.
