    Is that why you got your buddies to drop out and endorse you so Bernie would lose, Biden?

    And then you proceed to stop every policy that would have helped stop this greed problem, Biden?

    Is that why you broke every promise you made to help the poor and instead doubled down on tax cuts for the super rich, Biden?

    Is that why you wasted billions of people’s taxes to fund war, Biden?

    Is that why you failed to provide any real opposition to Trump, Biden?

    Real “Eisenhower warns about the industrial military complex” moment. clown

      I can at least kind of see Eisenhower being sincere. Not out of any concern for the wealthy making profit off of mass death, but because it’s pretty obvious that if all your guns are coming from profit seekers then that’s inevitably going to screw over your military’s ability to actually fight, which he has a personal vested interest in.

      This is just Biden doing a victory lap while giving ammo to the DNC to claim that they give a fuck about anyone other than their donors.

    he went on to say “and be aware of presidents who run on promises they don’t intend to keep, ones about student debt relief, raising the minimum wage, and stimulus checks. don’t vote for guys like that for president. those are bad guys”

      Look on the bright side. Now that he’s no longer useful to the bourgeois, the expensive medical treatments that have been keeping him alive will stop. I bet he doesn’t live to see 2026.
