I think it's a fucking asshole for not throwing citizen Trump in a deep dark prison cell the second he stepped out of the White House.

If Biden had any balls At.All. Trump would have been in prison Jan 7th

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago

If Biden had balls he'd have drone striked Trump and his Supreme Court appointments the day after the court gave the president immunity for executive actions.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

How was Biden to do that when he wasn't president until the 20th.

The democrats must be so giddy. They don't need to move to the left one iota as long as Trump and MAGA is fucking up this bad.

No hope. No change. Corporatist#67 for 2028!

As a foreigner I think all American presidents on my lifetime have been pieces of shit and America is a hopeless hell hole. Fucking 10 corporations in a trench coat pretending to be a government.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

Exactly this. The problems with America predate Trump and his administration. The difference is that Trump and Co. are what used to be satirical caricatures of the idea of American exceptionalism, as if taking Team America The World Police seriously.

This is the sanest comment.

Biden's economy was shit too, which is what made it possible for Trump to broaden his coalition so significantly.

Yeah I really wish there was some kind of patent reform so a company can only hold a patent long enough for the work to create the innovation to be worth the pursuit of it.

Instead they will use patents to stifle innovation and stop people from being able to compete with new ideas based on an original innovation. The patent system was supposed to foster innovation, not stifle it.

Ive never seen any politician on any side do anything about the aggressive use of patents. Companies will buy out companies just for the patents. Its obviously a big issue that reworked would make it harder for a corporation to thrive without continuing to innovate and provide what the people really want or need.

Yeah it was decided initially so that the creator could still benefit from it and recoup r&d costs before a third party could copy their design without the r&d and be able to sell the product cheaper.

But now companies just patent any idea without using them just so other companies can't.

If a company doesn't use their patent within a certain time frame it should be completely revoked.

It's still Bidens economy for the next four years unless it's doing good then it becomes Trump's

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, and it was Trump's economy for the past four years because everyone knew he was going to win and everyone would be constantly winning too. Now it's Biden's economy, but wait until Trump's economy kicks into gear. You'll get so many jobs you won't know what to do with them. Unless the economy crashes again after that, then it's Biden's economy again until it recovers then it's Trump's. What's so hard to understand?

Oceania was at war with Eurasia; therefore Oceania had always been at war with Eurasia. -Orwell, 1984

LOL. As if MAGA weren't allergic to rationality.

[–] [email protected] 41 points 4 days ago

Anyone who bothers paying attention knew Republicans were going to fuck our economy up. They always do. But even I am shocked at how fast it's happening.

Doesn't matter. This country is too stupid to learn from mistakes. And down the ship goes.

Trump making the capitalist hellhole worse, does not make the capitalist hellhole acceptable. No matter if the presidents name was Trump, Biden, Obama, Bush, Clinton, Bush or Reagan.

An economy that cannot provide access to basic healthcare and education for its citzens is a failed economy, no matter how high the price tags of stocks traded by coked up psychopaths are.

If Biden or Harris were president now live would be better for millions, perhaps even billions, of people on this planet.

Both sidesing this it lazy and ineffective.

Can we have Clinton's economy again?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

A tech bubble that will pop in 2 years and a real estate bubble that will pop in 8? I think we already do.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

The true death of American manufacturing, an overvalued tech bubble that will bring down the global economy, and massive deregulation of financial rules that will end in the worst financial crisis since the Great depression?

That's the economy you want?

Less shitty != not shitty

Greatest president during Joe's presidency. We'll sorely miss anyone who is not Trump.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

The best part about Biden's presidency was not having to read the news because the president was gonna make a huge mess the next day.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I think he should be in the Hague, personally.

Bad still bad. Ignoring real poverty, homelessness and struggle because "line go up" was not good. No reason to rehabilitate an imperialist billionaire loving war criminal because his successor is arguably worse in many ways.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

He wasn't great but he wasn't batshit crazy like Trump. Sure he should have pushed for universal healthcare, a universal income, taxing the rich more, etc.

The only advantage of Trump being this fucking nuts is America should swing left harder than ever in 2028. Maybe we can get some billionaires to pay their share and some awesome social services to catch with the planet. But that all depends if we even have an election.

Continued the tradition of hollowing out the middle class for wealthy donors like any other politician. The man represented Delaware for God's sake. Economy got "better" while people continued to get gradually poorer, materially.

I guess that's better than having every index in the world crater because chatgpt said tariffs on everyone though, so.
