Like a real president should, Biden does a lot of things I agree with and some I don’t. I thought Obama was one of the greatest presidents in my lifetime but even he did things I didn’t completely agree with. Would I’d rather have someone like Bernie or AOC in the Oval Office? Absolutely (well except he’s to old and she’s to young). Could we do better than Biden? Also absolutely. What I’d love to see is national ranked choice voting and more like 5-6 candidates. I think this would be better for everyone. But Trump is an existential crisis waiting to happen. I’m not sure this country can withstand another Trump presidency. Frankly I’m not sure my health can either. I literally noticed a significant drop in my BP when Trump left.
So yeah, you can be critical of Biden and not a Trump supporter. Frankly if you’re not a little critical of any president regardless of party, you’re not in a party, you’re in a cult.
Speaking of a different BP, I don’t think that humanity could survive another Trump presidency. That BP being British Petroleum.
Shitty segway I know.
But part of Project 2025 is to roll back climate regulations, invest solely into fossil fuels, and hamstring the EPA. So, you know, as much as we complain that not enough is being done…that’s the alternative.
I think Biden has a really tough job at this campaign.
He’s not going to sway any Trump voters. He’s going to have to get people in key states to actually show up at the polls and vote for him.
Several of those key states care a lot about
fossil fuels. States whose biggest industry is coal, or oil, or cars, or steel.
So harking a lot on climate policy won’t sway them much, and directly attacking Trump’s policy will just enrage Trump’s base and potentially cost him really important states.
He has to break apathy while also not fanning Trump’s flames too much. I think that’s an incredibly delicate balance for this one issue, let alone everything else. It’s like trying to tell Bruce Banner you ran over his dog. It’s the right thing to do, but you’re still going to regret it.

Biden should maybe, talk about that.

It doesn’t help that each day he gets older.
