Has it occurred to anyone Joe is hurt? He's done a great job, and all these hyenas are demanding he step down. How would you feel?
Didya all see what Nancy Pelosi said yesterday? That's the way to persuade a President.
Another thing...If Joe had a white male VP, the subject of who should replace him wouldn't even come up. Pass over Kamala and lose women voters, Black voters, and Black women voters.
Jokes aside this is a real and important test. Specifically:
"For example, Biden is unlikely to ramble on so incoherently at breakfast that even Mike Pompeo has the good sense to look embarrassed."
You sure about that?
"Biden having a long history of working in foreign diplomacy, it seems unlikely he will skip meetings with world leaders because he couldn’t be pulled away from the day’s edition of “Fox & Friends.”
OK, maybe he won't be watching Fox, but you're sure that he'll go to every meeting?
This is a chance for the administration to prove he's up to the job.
I think he's up to it, but I wouldn't rule out another 'cold' either.
Someone suggested Biden (with his immunity for official acts) fire six of nine of the SC Justices for their obvious disrespect for the Constitution, stripping women of a
Constitutional right AND start tax investigations of Thomas and Alito.
At some point in one of these closed-door meetings, someone's going to turn to Biden and say, "So, our gravest secrets are now in the hands of Vladimir Putin, right?"
Not only is NATO younger than both candidates, but they were both old enough to have personal memories of its formation, if they were bright boys with an interest in the larger world. So, Biden, but probably not Trump, but not because Trump was too young.
The North Atlantic Treaty was signed in 1949. Theoretically, those talks also established NATO as the preferred means of implementing the treaty, but nothing was really done until the outbreak of the Korean War.
In 1951, Supreme Headquarters, Allied Powers, Europe was established.and is the actual birth of NATO as a military organization. But it could not really be a credible fighting force and would only serve as a tripwire for nuclear retaliation until West Germany joined in 1955, bringing a domestic defending army and a prepared defensive battleground to the alliance, so that event can be considered the true "start" of NATO rather than what would otherwise be considered a piece of historical trivia. Joe Biden was 12, Donald Trump was 9.
Should The Convicted Felon be elected and should he threaten to leave NATO, I am sure many weapon manufacturers will remind him that NATO buys a lot of American weapons.
U.S. voting people may not understand that even though we still have at least some checks & balances under the current system, UNLESS Orange Donald is put back in power by Democrats doing internecine fighting and being spineless in the face of Republican cheating, on *domestic* policy -- FOREIGN policy is the place where the POTUS can act almost unilaterally ... and Donald has been meeting with the Putins of the world trying to destroy democracy in the rest of the world and institute autocracy globally. People need to understand that as much of a clown as Donald is, they are not kidding about this.
So WaPo had some great drivel by Theissen in their opinion section about how ACKTUALLY Trump was the greatest thing to happen to NATO and deserves the credit Biden is getting and will TOTES Make NATO Great Again if he gets back in power. The maniac writing this piece concluded:
--we should close all our German bases and move them to Poland and the Baltics because Germany is a "freeloader" (sure, Trump's really going to move our bases closer to Pooty's land)
--Trump "made" those other nations up their military contributions
--how DARE we spend less than 5% of GDP on our military! In fact it needs to be over 6.5%! Who cares what that is in budget terms, tie it to GDP foreeeever!
--super-arm Ukraine to make Putin pull out because OBVIOUSLY that is what Trump meant by being able to "end the war tomorrow" (sure, Mark, sure)
--We should let South Korea, Japan, and Australia join NATO along with other Pacific allies to acknowledge The Russia-China-Iran-NKorea axis that is forming (I feel a WW3 comin')
Doesn't NATO have a defense agreement of some sort? If so, there's a clear and present danger to the United States from a terrorist group calling itself the Grand Old Party. Someone should look into that.
Assuming there is no elevator, Melon wouldn't need locks if she'd move her bedroom to the second floor. Although, who am I kidding?- she probably wouldn't be caught dead in the same zip code as her husband these days.
(Takes deep breath).

Come on, try and remember we're here, guys.

Ta, Gary. We must keep Biden-Harris in office. The free world is depending on us. Turnout is going to be everything. We. must. VOTE.

What could they do?

Awkward conversation to follow.

"How terrified the rest of the alliance is that Americans in our noble wisdom will put that rotund angry carrot in charge of everything again."
Mary Trump's broadcast today has a segment about this

So many former NYT editors are rolling in their graves that I can feel the tremors here on the left coast.
Well, not the ones who minimized Herr Hitler...

Thanks. I remember reading about that.
Mood today;
“ Mama take this badge from me
I can't use it anymore
It's getting dark too dark to see
Feels like I'm knockin' on Heaven's door”
So tired of the “Biden must leave crap” when Demented Donnie gets zero scorn.
Jello shots?!? From the very mommyblog that has a weekly fancy cocktail feature?!?!
Why not? Its not like anyone is making Hooper make them.
Although tbh, I have few doubts Hooper could make a damn good one.
"How terrified the rest of the alliance is that Americans in our noble wisdom will put that rotund angry carrot in charge of everything again."
Is RAC the next PAB?
How 'bout we make it simple? FFF, Fuck Face Felon?
I just go with Chump.

Imagine being paid the big bucks when you’re that stupid. If I ever see this Theissen guy walking down the street, I’m going to trip him.

It's going to be good news for media as they love their FUD! But I believe in Joe here.
