    Biden is being a gentleman doing what is expected of him and accepting that the public elected a sack of shit who didn’t even show up for Biden’s inauguration and tried to seize the government. The point is, the public did elect the sack of shit this time, and Biden respects that. He’s doing his job, no matter how hard he’s gonna have to wash that hand.

    Remember when Trump won the first time and all that “lock her up” bullshit evaporated. He even said nice things about Hillary after he won. Pepperidge farm remembers.

    They’re in the same class. They have no skin in the game. Their families and friends aren’t at risk of shit, except for the excruciating decision of what to do with all that privilege they’ve got knowing an ex-President. That golden parachute of the lecture tour and book deals and fundraisers is always gonna be there for any career politician. Biden “tried his best” guys and that’s good enough. Take solace in that as you’re carted off to the blacksite.

    None of these fucks are your friends.

      “It’s a big club, folks, and you ain’t in it.” - George Carlin

      But yeah, I said that months ago and was downvoted for it. None of their lives are going to be affected by any of this, any of this fascism coming through. That’ll be for us poors to bear, the wealthy don’t hurt the wealthy. It’s the only honor amongst them.

    If he did anything else it would have been undemocratic, the road to hell is paved with good intentions and all that.
