How will Joe Biden GOVERN? General Biden Administration F**kery Thread

[mastermind]

What in the last 60 years makes you give these people the benefit of the doubt?

Because in the last 60 years, American lives have fallen into worse times economically.

And West Virginia was always poor but used to be a union and labor state that has gotten fukked over.

I ain’t saying these people will forget about racism and the culture wars as they become more economically comfortable, but I also haven’t seen any democrat actively addressing it.

"It's usually noticeable": GOP senator calls for senility test for aging leaders

Probably the only time I would agree with a GOP senator. If we were testing, Trump probably never runs, and if he does run he doesn't make it past year 2.

The US still has to fill key posts all over the world — in Beijing, at Nato, in Moscow. The Biden administration carries part of the blame, but the real issue lies with the Senate and with two Republican senators: Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley.

The alliance between progressives and the Dixiecrats(I’m including WV)which made FDR policies possible and strengthened unions died when the Democratic party voted for Civil rights. They abandoned progressive policies as retribution for equality. These are the same people who chose a disastrous civil war rather than end human slavery. These are the same people that chose to slow down the development of the region post reconstruction rather than share resources with negroes.

They haven’t changed all that much. They’d rather refuse a loaf of bread if the “others” get half a loaf. These are not rational people. Not economically anyway. They value whiteness too much.

It wouldn't apply to Trump. The Cabinet would need to invoke the 25th Amendment. And that's risky business. That amounts to a coup.

Yeah the scumbag would have everything tied up in courts until the end of his term just like last time



all we can do is be active and prevent him from being elected again

They mention Biden's age so it would have covered Trump, and the text of the 25th amendment give Congress the ability to invoke it

This analysis ignores stagflation in the 1970s which then started neoliberal policies that have made things worse on the poor. I feel like our elected leaders, black political elite class/fake civil rights movement members and media pundits want to say it was only a civil rights backlash, while ignoring the 70s economic collapse and 80s labor decimation. In 1980, West Virginia was one of three states that voted for Carter.

LBJ was one of them. He stated that by signing the Civil Rights Bill, he was ceding the south for generations and god damn it, he was right. I think you are getting lost in the weeds.

150+ years of evidence demonstrate that they place whiteness, which manifests itself in a wide range of culture issues, over any economic policies. The current right media landscape makes it worse by reinforcing their bigotry as a virtuous cause.

LBJ signed the voting rights bill and the only reason he didn’t run for re-election was Vietnam falling to shyt. The shift coincided with the 70s economic collapse and the Democrats turning their backs to labor and unions in the 70s.

I’m not denying racism, but my point is it’s easier to fight the culture wars and say “those people are icky” instead of enacting economic policies that help everyone. Dems have decided to go, “those people are icky” and fight the culture war
