The Russo-Ukrainian War Thread (FKA Political Thread)

[Bobby Barrows]

I’m gonna be honest, though I am going to side eye every single person that tries to use trump’s age against him because they would’ve all backed Biden if he didn’t step down, personally.

But yeah, Biden got it right and hit the nail on the head. Said exactly what needed to be said. It takes a lot of self reflection to realize you’re not the man for the job.

An additional thought as well, Trump's allies will try and deride Biden's term because (like Trump) it only went one term.

If Kamala does beat Trump in November, their arguments will fall flat because unlike Trump, Biden voluntarily gave up after 1 term.

The only other President who served one term and voluntarily gave it up was James Knox Polk.

Refreshing takes by Biden. I gotta give him credit here for admitting he was being selfish

Johnson served an extra year because of JFK. I'm referring to a President who served a single term of 4 years.

He still gave up his term but apples to oranges I guess
