A warning from Biden

I thought this was interesting.
Sounds like the previous such failed speech attempt he made on the subject--but without the ominous background.
Biden should just accept his poll numbers, and move on, and move out.

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.

Sounds as if Biden in his maddening mental decline, will probably call a drone strike on Trump or something after declaring him a terrorist.

Oh vey!

Not Biden himself, of course, but some unknown handler that we'd never discover the identity of because it would be hidden for the "safety and privacy" of the individual.

Many former Republicans of note have sounded the warning as to what could happen if Trump is elected, thus voters should take head as our constitutional democracy is at stake.

I never take seriously any comment from anyone who refers to our constitutional republic as a constitutional "democracy".
Facts and accuracy play a large role in truth.

Poll numbers are irrelevant 11 months out. The last thing anyone should do is make decisions off their emotions

America is a constitional republic with democratic elections. "We the people" decide our elected representatives

What warning?

Isn't the OP about him warning America about how Trump threatens democracy again?

The guy has spent his entire political career blubbering on about threats to society and the country. Typically he punches down at people who aren't actually threats and paints a picture of a society that is a lot more dangerous than it actually is all for political gain. The guy is a twat.

Trump and MAGA people are a pretty easy target now that they've been rounded up and had the judicial system beat up on them.

He did his job in 2020 by getting Trump out of office - most likely permanently. Now Biden really needs to go away. He's from a long lost era. Whoever succeeds him hopefully is younger and more in touch with what society is today.

You're talking about Biden right?

Yes. Obviously. Why the rhetorical question?

Arguable and inaccurate

Why inaccurate?

Oh ya.

Not really.

MAGA people aren't being rounded up. The judicial system is at use because of people breaking the law. It's not a political thing. (talking point)

People did the right thing and voted to keep Trump out of office.

Biden is no different today than in 2020. Maybe a little slower, but still able to perform the job if elected.
This election isn't about Biden anyways, within the first year he'll relinquish power to Kamala Harris. Harris is more progressive as well.

Do you take issue with that?

Do you know that for sure? (Him relinquishing his power to Harris?) Where has it been stated that he'll actually do that?

And why would I take issue with that? It's exactly what I just said I wanted him to do if he's reelected. I want him gone. I don't care how, just gone.

I'd probably be hoping for a Dem victory due to the way in which the Reps messed with abortion rights alone.

I agree that people did the right thing to get Trump out but that doesn't mean Biden is good, he's awful.

The big part of him being awful is just that - that he's no different - he's the same self righteous, virtue signaling ******* with a hero complex that he's always been except for maybe when he was carrying water for the Clinton administration and ferociously trying to terrify the American public and congress into actually believing that mass incarceration was a good thing and should be doubled down on because American society is so lethally dangerous.

It’s an election year… you have to say something to build your platform.

You should have watched old videos of him as a senator. He was much more articulate but you could tell he was a corrupt greed filled scumbag.

I saw a few of those disgusting videos.

The amount of lives he destroyed with the **** he pulled in his earlier years is unfathomable.

The Truth in Sentencing trash from the 90s was unforgivable.

People will be suffering for decades to come because of the unmitigated damage he did to society back then.

It's funny because a lot of those videos have actually magically disappeared from YouTube and other sources since he was elected.

The fact that he postures as this knight in shining armor these days really annoys me. Trump is a dangerous lunatic and a piece of **** but at least he's honest about it - some days I actually wonder whether that actually makes him better than Biden as far as character goes - the two headed monster that the US political system is and all that. The exact reason why Trump (a Washington outsider) was elected in the first place is a direct consequence of Americans being totally fed up with politicians like Biden - some to the point where they were actually willing to sacrifice their own lives and freedom just to fight against it. It's a big deal - and it says a lot about where people are as far as US politics go.

That's why I really like AOC - young and doesn't seem too corrupted yet. She might be a little full of herself but that's par for the course in federal politics. There's a few like her - seems like an up and coming breed of politician. As much as I hate identity politics, I think a young female POTUS would be really good for the USA. Other western allies seemed to have benefitted from it over the last decade.

Obviously, you and @Kenny are unaware of the fact that a "republic" is one form of "democracy":
re·pub·lic
[rəˈpəblik]

NOUN

  1. a state in which supreme power is held by the people and their elected representatives, and which has an elected or nominated president rather than a monarch.

I understand completely… but there is a big difference and wording is very important.

Key Takeaways: Republic vs. Democracy​

  • Republics and democracies both provide a political system in which citizens are represented by elected officials who are sworn to protect their interests.
  • In a pure democracy, laws are made directly by the voting majority leaving the rights of the minority largely unprotected.
  • In a republic, laws are made by representatives chosen by the people and must comply with a constitution that specifically protects the rights of the minority from the will of the majority.
  • The United States, while basically a republic, is best described as a “representative democracy.”
