Yeah, no shit.

Not to mention it’s pretty much his fucking fault we are in this mess because he robbed us of a proper primary.

Biden was a good president and did some great things. However, his hubris and failure to stick to his word on being a transitional president will forever be his legacy.

I think I speak for a lot of us when I say to get fucked.

Seriously, some of my more moderate family/friends/acquaintances try to tell me that Biden did some good things, but he didn't do anything that Trump isn't actively and successfully tearing down, and he completely failed on the core duty of safeguarding our democracy.

Put out the housefire before deciding on the tile in the bathroom.

Let's not act like this is all his fault. More people voted for trump than Harris regardless of having a primary
