They had people out here supporting a mask ban and acting COVID doesn’t exist because corporate America said so.
Biden phoned Trump to make sure he was okay after the assassination attempt.
Does anyone here think Trump will call Biden to say he hopes Biden will get better soon?
Incoming ‘health concern’? 🤔
And then…
Biden Says He’d Consider Dropping Out if a ‘Medical Condition’ Emerged
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/17/us/politics/biden-health-election-drop-out.html
Wow, did the stars align? Next you’re gonna tell me a charismatic potential candidate has been waiting in the shadows.
BAH GAWD THAT’S BERNIE’S MUSIC!!!
I fucking love Bernie, I donated, canvassed, made calls, drove hundreds of miles to go to rallies, have Bernie sticker on my vehicles in a violently republican town, but Bernies window has closed. He is too old now and he would say that himself.
I wouldn’t argue too hard because he still seems to have his witts about him, and even a half sentient Bernie would be the best thing that ever happened to this country. But this age trend needs to go the other way.
How about AOC…
AOC voted to protect the rail corporations safe from union strikes. Hard pass.
Your right, we should stick with all the corporate shitbags. They are somehow better…
AOC, but how do we court the mythical moderate republican that’s just waiting in the wings to elect a neo-lib once the opportunity arrives?
Gavin newsome: yeeeeeeeees?
Gavin newsome: NOOOOOOOO!!!
He said years ago that the homeless issue was his number one problem, and its gotten worse and worse in CA. It’s up like 70% in Sacramento, which is his backyard. We can do better than that, I know we can.
We do have a candidate waiting in the shadows in case Biden croaks. She’s capable, but hardly charismatic.
Would also count as a sign from God?
hey look…a medical condition!
Yeah, that timeline is a little sus…
But even if this is some kind of excuse, it would help his replacement more if he said he was stepping aside for a candidate with the best shot of beating trump.
But that includes putting country over ego.
God that’d be amazing.
Wow. Is it possible he may really be giving us an out?
Fingers crossed.
That or the Lord Almighty is expressing his opinion.
Fox news is going to run with this so hard if it happens. God curved a bullet (straight into a retired firefighter) to save trump and killed Biden with a cough (because COVID doesn’t exist for them). I can’t wait for the rhetoric.
Well to be fair, if this were a movie then a character who said
If the Lord Almighty came down and said, “Joe, get out of the race,” I’d get out of the race. The Lord Almighty’s not coming down.
would definitely die. The Lord Almighty doesn’t come down to you, you come up to him.
The Lord Almighty has entered the chat
It’s okay, Maga says Covid isn’t really a problem.
I’m watching NBC News live right now and they asked people on the floor of the RNC for their reaction about Biden having COVID. They all said they are praying for him and hope for a speedy recovery. I was waiting for just one “COVID ain’t real! Fauci is a liar!” crazy person but there were none. Damn.
They know the media is on them and they have to behave and say “politically correct” things.
Make no mistake, the RNC and DNC are carefully managed events. RNC tries to show as racially diverse a crowd as possible for the cameras and DNC tries to be a welcoming big tent, both to encourage undecided voters to come join the bandwagon.
and DNC tries to be a welcoming big tent,
As long as you agree 100% with the DNC…
They have a poor record with people protesting how rightwing the DNC has been moving for decades…
They are incorrigible
Mans is getting ready to fuck off into the sunset.
No he’s not…the D’s will run his fucking corpse at this point rather than picking a viable candidate.
At least his corpse can’t fuck up softball questions.
lolwhat. Joe is the only person who wants Joe to run.
My money, seeing how badly the dnc wants Trump to win, would be on them running a similarly unviable candidate like Harris.
Think of the laughs though! “Weekend at bidens” has already been done right? Someone has to have done that joke already
Or go toward some sort of light.
Ok, buddy, I think it’s time
I hope he’s not planning to one-up Trump’s “brush with death” and steal back sympathy by actually dying.
Oh man me too. Sure hope.
That might work…have him try it.
Biden just said it would take a medical emergency to get him to drop. If this isn’t a sign from <deity of your choice> that he needs to get out of the race, I don’t know what is.
maybe it’s an act of god or maybe they got someone sick to cough on his glass, but the thing from god is also possible
I hope for a swift recovery.
Theory time:
Comes back and claims brain fog issues or neurological damage. He will use that to bow out gracefully.

Get well soon, Mr. President
Waiting for all the Maga folks to fall over each other in their rush to wish Biden well…
You should hold your breath, it probably won’t be too long.
Just had dinner with in-laws who were laughing and hoping he dies.
They can wish that I guess, but a state funeral “trumps” a failed assassination like 9 times out of 10. Kicking it in office of natural causes is some FDR shit.
Trumps in what way…?
I bet they would’ve been furious if you made a joke about Trumps mosquito bite
Yup. I saw a magabrain shortly after the shooting, and he was deathly serious like he just heard about the death of a relative: “did you hear about the shooting?”
Meanwhile, this same guy thought the hammering of Pelosi’s husband was HILARIOUS.
Dude, just…sigh
