Pretty clear neither of these imperialists give a fuck about the people, and only care about its effects on the election. Reps make a big deal out of nothing to use against dems, and dems concede to them.

Just the usual ratchet effect

Go back and look at the '90s. Conservative Democrats are practically progressives by comparison.

[-] TengoDosVacas@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

90s Democrats gave us the Telecommunications Act of 1996, and they had previously agreed that yes, conservatives need a bigger voice in media and government. They literally laid the groundwork for fascism, like handing Hitler his PA system

Didn't Biden call the dude and enemy of the state on a few occasions?

Impeachment... Colluding with enemies of the state...

I'm being facetious of course, I'd rather they break the tradition of trying to impeach every president on their way out the door, but still, how you gonna have a meeting with someone you yourself called an enemy of the state?

Because he knows Trump is going to Trump and refuse to work with him. Biden's perspective= win win and shows the orange broke dumb shit is all smoke and mirrors.

Trump's supporters don't care, so all it shows that Biden is a fascist collaborator.

The GOP as a whole is actively antagonistic with America. But you have to work with them if you want to get anything done.

Hindenburg reaches across the aisle for bipartisan legislation 2024 edition

[-] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 18 points 3 months ago

I love it. Make Trump and the GOP look like the obstructionists that they are.

Both red and blue governors want some sort of way to handle the record number of people crossing right now. That bipartisan bill would’ve easily passed if it was brought to the floor. But if the border started to chill out, Trump wouldn’t be able to complain about the border at the podium.

"record number"

Propaganda works, I see. Every election year.

There is no border crisis and never has been.

Trump: There's no "me" in "work together."

Biden might as well try to convince a rock that it can jump if it tries really hard.

Our politicians may not always get along, but at least they agree about hating brown people.

None of the quotes from Biden mention Trump?

This is the best summary I could come up with:


In his remarks, Trump said the death of Riley, 22, a graduate nursing student who was killed this month while on a jog near the University of Georgia, was “barbaric” and referred to her as “a beautiful young woman.”

The Democratic National Committee said Thursday that it would display a mobile billboard in Eagle Pass during Trump’s visit criticizing him over his efforts to kill the bipartisan border bill and his immigration agenda.

“If given the chance, Trump would double down on his cruel, chaotic, and inhumane immigration agenda of ripping away children from their parents, rounding up people into detention camps, and using the military to carry out mass deportations,” DNC spokesperson Alex Floyd said in a statement.

“When voters head to the ballot box this November, they’ll remember how Trump put himself and his political ambitions ahead of securing the border and delivering for the American people.”

The Biden administration argued the migration was due to other factors, including seasonal fluctuations, recent hurricanes in Central America and misinformation promoted by human smugglers.

Border cities in Texas, such as El Paso and Eagle Pass, have been overwhelmed at times with an unprecedented influx that has stretched local resources thin and prompted frantic calls for federal help.
