      It should be news when someone calls himself progressive for years and as soon as he gets to congress he starts ranting about how much it pisses him off everyone thinks he’s progressive.

      Asshole pulled a Sinema and the most annoying part is everyone defending him because he wears a hoodie.

        I hope it’s more due to the fact that he had a stroke rather than he’s doing it intentionally. Either way he has had a complete shift in personality and its disappointing to no end that he’s not who he was when elected.

        I’m not worried about Biden’s age mostly because I think this comes from the racist fear that Kamala Harris isn’t capable of running this country.

          I think we’re worried about biden’s age less because we’re worried he’ll die in office and more because we’re worried he won’t and will keep running the country as his mind deteriorates beyond the point he should be running a bingo game.

            Honestly, I would not at all be shocked if Biden resigns the day after inauguration and Harris takes over. I’ve seen several recent articles that seem to indicate she’s WAY more in tune with the concerns of the (sane portion of the) electorate, and is actively trying to step up in many areas where Biden and his campaign are dropping the ball. We’ll see what happens, I guess.

          Yeah, I’ve known a couple family members who had a stroke and became better people.

          Sometimes it works the other way.

          Personality changes arent a rare after effect, it’s pretty common.

    Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) panned Democrats who are upping their criticisms of President Biden ahead of the November election, saying they might as well don a “MAGA hat.”

    Fetterman noted during an interview an uptick in Democrats who have become more critical of Biden lately, and said it’s only helping former President Trump.

    Democracy! No longer allowed to question or criticize our politicians.

      That’s a dishonest way to look at what he said. An honest one would be that he has just as much right to criticize Democrats offering aid to Trump as the Democrats offering aid to Trump have a right to criticize Biden.

      Biden: [Does things]
      Anti-Biden Democrats: [He shouldn’t be doing that.]
      Fetterman: [They shouldn’t be doing that.]
      You: [Fetterman is anti-democracy and pro-censorship.]

      This is just pure clownishness.
