Yep, still here
Considering that being "Presidential" hasn't worked for the Republican primary since at least 2012....

2000. Shrub was Mister Folksy. The most dignified thing he ever did was throw out the first ball.

I'll be honest. His admin kind of sucked for domestic issues, especially economic. The austerity his admin imposed after the Great Recession was a disaster and let to an entire decade of lost productivity, lack of housing, etc.
He was a necessary leader internationally having to rebuild our image after the previous admin.
I think Biden has been the far superior president.

Starting in 1980, we have been running right at the cliff edge. Clinton and Obama changed our direction to running sideways, parallel to the cliff, but did not reverse the direction and start us back towards safety. I'm not sure how that can happen, given that legalized bribery has compromised everybody in DC to do the bidding of the Plutes. Even if and when we crush the Nazis, we will still have the Cordyceps all throughout both parties. The moment either party makes a move to challenge the Plutes, they will funnel money into the other party to stop them.
Longterm, the only way we can get our democracy back -- again, assuming we defeat the Nazis first -- is if both parties forever forswear the money and influence of the vampire squid, and both put a bullet in Wall Street's brain together.
That might bring back Main Street and the middle class and social stability. But it is going to be painful because the Plutes don't play when it comes to defending and expanding their thefts. And because 95% of the voters have been brainwashed that an attack on Capitalism is an attack on the free market.

Vivek is the living embodiment of that "You know dude, I started paying attention to the world a few months ago. Man, I don't know what the deal is but the problems are so simple. Just listen to me, I can fix it!" nonsense that we expect from tech bros and other un-self-aware idiots.
I'd have to agree. My point was more toward ______'s inane post.

Wait, it's the fall of the year before the election and some Republicans are saying they might for someone other than a white male? That means they'll totally get actual votes and the nomination come the start of the election year. Just ask former Presidents Bobby Jindal, Michelle Bachmann, Herman Cain, Carly Fiorina, and Ben Carson.

Tech Bros don't understand nuance because that makes issues not black and white. Vivek is just Andrew Yang with even worse ideas.
Don’t forget Herman Cain, a true American patriot.

It is too bad that the Deep State had to eliminate such a forward thinking American patriot.

The GOP declared war on reason in 1980 and on truth in 1992. They have been this for nearly a half century.
