Oh man here’s another great piece by this genius. He says if Obama had declared he wouldn’t run for a second term it would force Mitch McConnell to compromise with him for some reason. LOL.

From AP News:
The Hamas militant group says it has accepted an Egyptian-Qatari cease-fire proposal to halt the seven-month war with Israel. It issued a statement Monday saying its supreme leader, Ismail Haniyeh, had delivered the news in a phone call with Qatar’s prime minister and Egypt’s intelligence minister.
There was no immediate comment from Israel.
I'd love for this conflict to be in the rear view mirror come November..

MAGA_Nuts are ramping up in Clearwater, FL. I saw this display of idiocy in front of the Clearwater courthouse the other day. You can’t tell it from the pic but there’s a confederate flag in that bucket of flags. Can’t wait for the MAGA boat parade.

Especially an opinion piece from some smuck that has worked for fox news and newsmax tv since 2009.
You've never tripped or misstepped before? Oh wait, mabye you just never had people their to help you back up.. Hell, I had such things happen since my early teens, as my ankle would just buckle out of the blue. funny thing is, I broke it in my 20's and it never happened again. Point is, a picture of someone falling, is no indication of anything but a person falling..
It's funny how that guy's sober minded analyses always land on 'Democrats should do what Republicans want'.

I had clicked the article and started reading. It was about this time that I got suspicious...It’s an opinion piece written by a Fox News/Newsmax contributor. Who said Obama shouldn’t run for a second term because he was too divisive, that Trump shouldn’t have been impeached for the coup attempt, etc.
Man, that sure seems like a credible source to me!

"And, as inflation proves stubborn, wars in Europe and the Middle East show no sign of slowing down, American college campuses are swarmed with protests against Israel and the southern border remains open, Biden has done little to change people’s perceptions."

I would not feel so bad having to vote for Biden so long as he becomes a DINO.

I'm good with that. On the economic front, he's slowly rolling back Clinton era conservative policies. If that puts him at odds with the Democratic Leadership Council Democrats, that's fine.
It's so open we keep catching and removing record numbers of people.
Is Axelrod's opinion liberal enough for you all?

Zero wind you say?
Biden makes a Wisconsin stop to tout AI — and troll Trump's Foxconn flop
President Biden made a trip to the swing state of Wisconsin on Wednesday with two goals: tout an AI investment from Microsoft and highlight a past failure from Donald Trump.
Biden can actually point to large, active infrastructure projects and say "I did that".
In case you didn’t read the article Axelrod makes no statements as to how likely Biden is to win. Just another excuse to overflow your diaper.
Pretty funny though how once you realized the sage advice in the op Ed came from a far right guy with a history of making similar (and ultimately wrong) predictions and recommendations you didn’t rethink your position, you just pretended it didn’t happen.
Yes oh MAGAT lover. Your deep love Trump will win in landslide of shit in your diaper and your every desire will be fulfilled. Make sure to get the good orange cheese with your wine. Why even post? You want Trump so bad and it is obvious,
No, as I mentioned if you read your own article Axelrod makes no such prediction.
Although I generally don't agree with @gothuevos on many things, I don't think he's all that wrong on this one.Zero wind you say?

Multiple Polls Say Biden Is Least Popular US President in 70 Years?
At the end of the first quarter of 2024, Gallup and other pollsters asked Americans what they thought of the president's job performance.

You're right that the Biden administration actually has a lot of wins under its belt, but the problem is that the electorate doesn't see it that way. Even the ever so slight post SOTU bump seems to have faded away. We're 6 months from the election, so there's still time. Still I would ask you when does the electorate come around and give Joe Biden some credit where it's due? Biden loses if his job approval rating stays pegged at 40% come November.

The one thing some people don't realize is that reality doesn't matter so much in politics as much as perception.Although I generally don't agree with @gothuevos on many things, I don't think he's all that wrong on this one.

Damn, there are so many reasons why I wish I could just hibernate for the next 6 months.
Can't bear this constant uncertainty about the US election (I'm not saying there's a high chance that Biden will lose, but it's quite bad enough that it's even a significant possibility that Trump could be back), plus have to wait for Sunak to deign to grant us an election here (the Tories will almost certainly lose, don't know if any party has ever been so far behind in the polls for such a sustained period of time, but goddam, what fresh damage will they inflect before then? And furthermore it's not at all clear what a Starmer government can and will do, given both the deep hole the country is in - currently lowest growth rates in the G7 while Brexit and its effects is still an insoluble conundrum - and Starmer's refusal to say what he actually believes in or plans to do).
There's also the independent question of whether Trump will end up in prison. Really want to know how that's going to turn out (and it seems like a separate issue of whether he'll be elected, as any combination of the different outcomes seems possible)
Plus there's waiting for the Ukraine war to end (while hoping it doesn't escalate into something much worse) plus waiting to see what fresh disasters climate-change unleashes (granted, that one's a longer timescale, but every year seems to bring fresh bad news on that front).
I can't remember any time in my life when time has felt like it's passing so slowly (there's also a long list of personal things going on that I wish I could just get over with).
This certainly feels like the longest parliamentary term I've ever known.

But is he really that unpopular? Like partisan politics but generally you still get 15-20% support from the other side. This band of marry MAGAtards is single digit support for Biden. It’s horribly skewing his approval rating.Although I generally don't agree with @gothuevos on many things, I don't think he's all that wrong on this one.

My Indian neighbor says he likes Biden but his family will be voting Trump because they hate inflation.
I said sure Trump will just wave a wand and it'll be gone.. he said nope but he is never voting democrat as they are racist and Trump at least loves Modi.
I asked how does that make our life better.. he said it doesn't but it makes him feel better.
Rolled my eyes but what can I do? At least it's New York.
P.S. Apparently Kamala being the daughter of a black guy is a bridge too far for some/ most Indian first gen people. I've heard a few snide comments about her.. you'd think they'd love her but nope.
