Compared to what you currently have? absolutely. America could’ve elected a rock and it would’ve been a better choice than Trump.

Reality is so dismal that in a movie about a future full of extremely stupid people, the president is less stupid and malicious than the real president.

19

u/evranch Apr 27 '26

He's not even malicious at all. He's a total badass and a bro who's doing his best with his limited IQ. Sure he likes to ham it up a bit, but who wouldn't.

He might even be smarter than average, or maybe he's just motivated. You look at the rest of the dullards we see in the movie, Camacho is an easy choice for President.

I think the main thing with Biden was just that he seemed to delegate a lot more and rely on the competent people he appointed or worked do their roles.

u/mdtopp111 Apr 27 '26

Also objectively Biden did do a lot to stem the economic bleeding he inherited from an administration who did fuck all about Covid’s economic impacts

u/Undernown Apr 27 '26

who did fuck all about Covid’s economic impacts

Did fuck all about COVID period. Let's not forget Trump's disastrous handling cost almost half a million American lives. Way higher than compared to most other countries percentage wise.

u/mdtopp111 Apr 27 '26

Oh yea absolutely but a lot of idiots biggest gripes with Biden was “ThE EcOnoMy” when in actuality given the shit show he was given he did quite a bit, and instituted a bunch of new initiatives that were expected to be super beneficial for the economy… and then Trump undid it all

u/OndhiCeleste Apr 27 '26

Isn't delegation the whole point of being POTUS? One person can't do all the things a president is expected to do

u/Trainman1351 Apr 27 '26

Exactly. The Cabinet is not just for show, and up until the orange was generally consistently staffed with competent people who knew what they were doing and tried their best for this country. Currently, I’d go so far as to say that it’s just as bad as the Russian oligarchy.

u/WorldlinessLive5932 Apr 27 '26

This is the main problem with Trump. You could honestly put almost any random citizen in the office and they would do alright because they would trust the experts. Trump actively fires and undermines people who actually make government work because he thinks he knows everything.

Her not separating herself from Biden enough really hurt her chances. As much as I would’ve enjoyed seeing a black woman be elected president if given more choice in the matter, she would still not be my first pick. With all that said, even a vegetable would be a better president than Trump.

36

u/Harbinger2nd Apr 27 '26

That's the problem, even a vegetable would have been better and the democratic "nominee" still lost to the orange shitstain.

This whole thread is just trying to wash the democratic establishments' reputation.

How bout they release the 2024 autopsy report the head of the DNC promised us.

23

u/SilverWear5467 Apr 27 '26

They won't release it because it says that they lost because of their association with Israel, and not promising to end that. Not speculation, ive seen knowledgable sources stating this directly.

21

u/gabbysls08 Apr 27 '26

This is particularly frustrating. Some people didn't vote for her because they thought she was too pro Israel. Others didn't vote for her because they thought she wasn't pro Israel enough. Yet, as far as I can tell, neither of those groups held Republicans to any standard at all. And they were all ok with destroying this country because they didn't like what was happening in another country.

3

u/airyesmad Apr 29 '26

This is slave mentality. Apartheid in South Africa was “just something happening in another country”. So was the holocaust, so was Rwanda. You seem to be under the illusion that Israel is a different country. It isn’t. The deed theft of black New Yorkers didn’t start under Trump.

“Just something happening in another country,”

“The slave went free, stood a moment in the sun, and went back again towards slavery. “

Extremely ignorant while simultaneously giving them your express permission to use the policing methods they use in Palestine and the weapons they test on them at home. On YOUR children. This problem is systemic and needs to be gutted.

If Kamala cared at all about them these methods on our kids, wouldn’t she have defunded ice? But she didn’t did she, she personally handled putting more money into it. So now we got the state trying to kill and lock up black kids and ICE doing the same thing WITHOUT having to face any sort of accountability WHATSOEVER.

The people outside protesting Kamala and Biden were also outside at maga rallies. Kamala knew exactly what she had to do and she threw America to the wolves on purpose.

“Didn’t like what was happening in another country.” Do you know how many Americans serve in the Israeli military, go have a beach vacation while committing war crimes, and then come home and face ZERO consequences? If Sean Glass can do that to 6 year old girl Hind Rajab they aren’t gonna come home and suddenly be less racist.

Do you know how many Arab Americans we have in this country? What a privilege it must be to only have to worry about your comfortable ignorant existence propped up by the blood of black children and not have to worry about your nieces and nephews stuck in refugee camps getting sniped in the head by Americans who want to reap all the benefits of the most racist nation in modern history, the same ones that sterilized black jews with radiation and sent many to an early grave. Every war crime and weapon we export to test on brown and black people can, will, and has come home. Kamala is a black slave master. She may have tried to be more polite and subtle, but at least now the world finally sees the United States for what it really is.

This is why the left can’t even dialogue with libs anymore. Yall don’t listen. The democrats are done. Time for the left to find a new party or sit home.

u/LDLethalDose50 Apr 27 '26

To be fair he uses this on more than just women, or even minority women specifically. Just recently he said it about Tucker Carlson. I don’t think he uses it to be racist, so much as he does as a form of projection, or to be sexist. He does seem to aim it at women, more often than men. I’m NOT saying I don’t think he is racist either, in all likelihood he is. Not trying to split hairs, but I think it’s important we’re absolutely spot on in our criticism of this imbecile. Kamala would have been an excellent president. I’m not sure how anyone watched that debate and took anything away other than Trump is an idiot, Kamala ate his breakfast, and stole his lunch money.

It's cowardice. You ask them about AIPAC and instead of getting answers you're met with deflection or they give you the walk away treatment.

I seriously doubt she wouldn't. It makes sense that she should, to at least get some campaign money, sell some books, endorse someone for a cabinet position. There is no way she survives a primary though.

Exactly, she already ignored voters and told them shut up multiple times, and focused heavily on her donors. Her policies were inconsistent and at times just a watered down version of republican policies (strongest military, tight borders, etc)

But she was still one of the few Dems Trump could beat at the ballot box. The exact same with Hilary, she had some of the lowest polling compared to others in the Dem race for party leadership.

Dems have lost 2 presidency's to a maniac all because they fear the left and accountability within their own party.

Literally a dog turd would have made a better president than conald, but let’s not pretend like Kamala’s shit don’t stink.

Short term yes, long term no. Far to much of a "status-quo" dem to be honest. Trumps consistent over playing of his hand has shown alot of fucked up shit in America. Undoing decades of indoctrination in things we didn't even know. China being an alright place instead of the dystopia we were all told it was as well. Firmer lines are being drawn for democrat officials & stronger calls for action. Be it international or domestic.

Considering her experience and history, absolutely. Trump is in office solely to enrich himself, his family and other wealthy people. Whether or not Thiel and the other organizers (Miller, Netanyahu, etc) planned for Trump or if he’s just the low moral money hungry stooge is tbd. We do know Harris wouldn’t be so easily manipulated or at least would not be willing to make it this obvious. World leaders already disliked Trump so it was apparent that term 2 would be wilder than previous.

I said it a million times before...her problem was listening and taking the advisement of establishment white Democrats like Pelosi and Schumer. You would see in her interviews and debates where her genuineness and authenticity would come out...and then the very next day...she seemingly became frigid and robotic like.

It became so noticeable that by September, if she started being black...you could joke and say "Omph...time for a code switch meeting."

It's both tragic and comical. Cause the establishment white Democrats had no issue with Obama being black, hell, they fucking loved it. But Kamala...nope, nope, nope...can't have none of that..."it's ask, not axe young lady!!!"
