    Watched some local news garbo because gf’s mom had it on and one of the indicators for Trump doing better than Biden at the debate was that he “finished his sentences”

    it’s just… so fuckin’ funny to watch America melt in on itself in real time sit-back-and-enjoy

      How did people get from Obummer in 16 to accepting Biden stammering and losing his train of thought 8 years later? I know this has happened before with Reagan and maybe Bush the Elder, but damn how the fuck? How did they go from obama’s charismatic orations to bringing the knives out when someone suggests Biden should step down? They did the same thing for Ginsberg too, though, I guess. Idfk.

        It’s like team sport to them. If you are a fan of FC Blue you support them whether there giving a good performance or a shitty one. You might yell at the coach from time to time if they don’t perform but you would never want to see another team win and you would never accept anyone but other FC Blue ultras talking shit about your team.
