Definitely kicked the hornets nest with this one OP lol

There's entirely too many people who let perfect be the enemy of better in this thread

Was Biden really better? He did all the same shit, he was just quiet about it instead of holding a press conference every time they bombed children.

He was.

Obviously he wasn't good enough to dismantle the trump power network, imprison him, kill him with the secret murder police we definitely don't have, or prevent him from running for office (section 3 of the 14th amendment).

But doing and standing for nothing was better than what's going on right now.

In the same way walking into the torture chamber with pliers is better than pulling your fingernails out.

If he did nothing then he'd be better.

Actively committing genocide is still actively committing genocide. Using all of Trump's built concentration camps is still just as bad as being the one building them.

He was more secretive and more discreet than Trump. That is how he was better. But Trump has done not a single thing the last 3 presidents have not also done.

Yeah, 100%! Although, if you don't mind, could you remind me:

  • How many times was Biden mentioned in the Epstein files?
  • How many crimes or felonies has Biden been convicted for?
  • How many people, including children, reported Biden for raping them?
  • How much money has Biden and Biden's family take under the table?
  • Which fundamental rules of democracy has Biden broken?
  • How many countries has Biden invaded?
  • How many times has Biden rolled out the red carpet for Putin?
  • What were the levels of Biden's tariffs and how much did they destabilise the global economy?
  • How many globally strategic trade routes have been blocked due to Biden's egomania?
  • How many US citizens have been killed for no reason at all by Biden's Sturmabteilung?
