Current Events > Biden didn't recognize George Clooney at fundraiser event in 2024

(+) Yeah! (+)

The whole "Original Sin" book looks like it's going to be devastating for Biden.

And a noticeable number of Democrats are trying to get ahead of it and bury him even further for not being up front about his well-being.

You can but I will always mock you for it because he is an old retired man who no longer has any power. So bringing it up now is not only pointless but an obvious right wing tactic to keep attacking the left.

You're the only one helping the right-wing, though. Mocking us for the party's failures is the opposite of productive and causing an unnecessarily escalated debate. Die on this embarrassing hill to your own detriment.

It's insane how people can constantly blame the "warriors of Gaza" or whatever small group but the second you put the blame on the party that was in power who made a million missteps it's "Hey it's time to move on" lol

Seriously. Biden and Harris have no one but themselves to blame for getting Trump elected.

People saw Bidens brains leaking out his head and then Harris running a DEEPLY out of touch campaign.

so I'm going to be polite and tell you that what's happening in Palestine is a genocide, and if you think it's not, you're not being "mindful". You're being ignorant. Call it what it is.

So why did you disappear from these boards after the election, were strangely absent when news of trump giving more weapons to Israel came out, and only showed back up a month or two ago when negative stories about Biden started getting posted?

Because behavior like that calls into question how much your concern for the genocide in Palestine is made in good faith.

I can't feel bad for the democratic party that should of been a easy election to win but the party has been incompetent on all levels throughout that election and people here blindly defended them without acknowledging the issues. not having a primary for another candidate and Biden clear mental decline labeling and the poor handling of the gaza war. you were labeled a trump supporter for saying this might be a issue against trump.

I'm sorry to say CE is pretty disconnected from the reality of how we got here.

Very true.

When I see Trump screaming and raving about people coming to eat my pets, or how he will end two wars in one day, or how he will make impossible price reductions, I think, "yeah hes lying."

Most of CE agreed. Unfortunatly we where proven to be the minority. People wanted a loud mouth with easy answers to complex subjects. I don't see anything that could of won against that. Lying is easy, explaining facts is hard.

Looked it up and apparently this guy was saying in June 2024 that Biden was "mentally fit". That a position to mock other people from?

He doesn't want to hear this stuff now because it exposes his poor judgment of competence. Well, too bad.

Well this topic blew up.

This board is so wierd about Biden lmao. Can't criticize him. Cant defend him. You sometimes get flamed for even bringing him up, like his name is an invective. "Why are you bringing up Biden right now at all? He's not in office!"

President's get talked about long after they are out of office folks. Always has been that way. Sometimes it's bad faith and sometimes it isn't.

I mean yeah, all of that is happening, and it's awful.
...But have you considered "Biden bad"?

Look, So far I haven't seen you post anything transphobic towards me or been ghoulish, so I'm going to be polite and tell you that what's happening in Palestine is a genocide, and if you think it's not, you're not being "mindful". You're being ignorant. Call it what it is.

I try not to be transphobic or ghoulish to anyone.

I've been very clear and consistent on what is happening in Palestine, and how I feel about the international community's support for the Israeli government.

I might even be one of the posters that some people think of as a secret Trumper and 'champion of Gaza'. Who knows?

Okay, why bring it up now? What do you hope saying a retired man is mentally not all there is going to achieve? Do you think you are going to turn people away from voting for Biden now? Are you protecting us all from Trump by doing so?

Is it just a hate boner for Biden or something?

Oh sweetheart, you don't know who you are talking to.

I went door to door to help sign people up to vote.

I was active in every community gathering in my city to tell people the benefits of Harris and the lies of Trump.

I drove several bus loads of old and disabled people to our local voting areas.

Yet here you are insulting me because unlike you. I fought for a better America. All you want to do is scream about an old retired man.

Yeah i'd be pretty upset too if all my community outreach, consisting of one week in a 4 year period, was wasted on a shitty candidate and a shitty situation. My apologies. You might feel better if you did a little more outside of election seasons

See all this needless hostility.

"You didn;t do anything to help!"
"O-oh yeah well you didn't do enougth to help!"

Nothing I did nothing Biden did nothing Harris did would ever be enougth for you.

I did what I could and people such as you want to spit on me for it and than wonder why I don't like you.

I don't like you because you're a bad person.

When Stephen King suggested Biden should step down, people on this board declared that he had outed himself as just another billionaire Trump supporter.

And thats what they actually don't want to be reminded of.

They were effervescent in their knee jerk reactions. It was wild to witness in real time and the board don't even want you to talk about it now.

I just don't understand why we even try pretending to obsess over Biden's mental decline compared to Trump's. Biden's brain started to melt and we got cheaper drug prices and the chips act. Trump's brain melted and we got the horrendous covid response, a shitty trade war, higher prices, and empty shelves.

Like who gives a shit about Biden? He's done and no longer in office.

What do you expect? For the media to do a similar expos on trump? If only we could be so lucky. But age and mental acuity is only important for somebody out of office, not the guy currently destroying the government.

Toon ran in to defend a literal Nazi sympathizer user here, and when repeatedly called out on it, his best excuse was "I don't like when people bring up a user's old posts to use against them" and then went right back to defending them.

What I've repeatedly said is his actions leading up to the attack are questionable and he should not have been there and his gun charges should have stuck to him instead of being dropped. BUT that he was defending himself from attackers, and murder charges would never have stuck. Yes I will stand on that.

Book should be out next week and then a bunch of quotes from it will be used by pundits to confirm Biden old and his staff was protecting/shielding him. Trump using the attack 'where is our president' should have been a red flag for the Dems. Guessing at the time they also though all those court cases were going to go through. Dragging out and slow rolling issues is the Dems specialty. Not addressing Biden's age in 2023 was a mistake and DNC continues to have the older members stand in the way of progressives.

I never said someone *specifically* said you can't criticize Biden. What i was saying is that the *behavior* on this board towards people who do, sends the message that you cant criticize Biden.

Toonstrack posted...

I thought you meant for the election. I started a little before the drop out but most of my time was with Harris running.
Between 48 hour work week and starting a new family I did dedicate what free time I could to it.

We can tell.

YAY!

Ooof, yeah you're paining a very detailed picture of yourself ITT.

I think not recognizing one of the most famous/recognizable actors and political activists in the world, that you've known personally for over a decade, and who also happens to be the host for your million dollar fundraiser goes a little past "old man does old man thing" tbh
