@alamarr5@LouiseMensch@MELANIATRUMP@FLOTUS It seems like an odd thing for him to lie about. Why would he come up with a lie that his wife is trying to influence his opinions on Putin? And if she did say that, maybe it's more altruistic that she's still with him, trying to influence him?
@alamarr5@LouiseMensch@MELANIATRUMP@FLOTUS I still think the jacket it was shockingly bad judgment, but it’s a relief to me if she actually isn’t evil. I don’t really care if she personally wrote this latest message. If she has help from a writer to put out message, there’s nothing wrong with that.
I’m tired. And my patience is gone.
Some of y’all spent years shit-talking a President who delivered transformative change for poor, working-class, and underrepresented Americans.
Because of Joe and Kamala: Insulin is $35/month; thousands freed from crushing student debt; lead pipes removed from poor neighborhoods; new factories and jobs across the country; and judges that actually look like America.
But I shut down credible challengers? Who? Marianne? RFK? Dean? Be serious.
What’s truly delusional is how a bunch of privileged guys convinced themselves they “get” the Democratic Party when they can’t even relate to the base of it.
We see how you operate. Who you uplift. Who you ignore. And Who you attack over and over again with zero accountability.
And let’s be real: You didn’t just come for Joe. You weakened the whole damn party.
You think those critiques just hurt him? They hit the Senate, the House, the governors, the down-ballot races. All of us.
Tell me—when was the last time you stepped into a southern Black church? An urban rec center? A rural town hall? A senior living facility? A military base?
I have. For the last four years, I’ve shown up in rural red states and urban blue ones. I’ve sat with folks who are flourishing and those who are barely holding on.
If I’m guilty of anything, it’s this: reflecting the values of everyday Democrats who built this party—people who believe in honesty, decency, and loyalty.
Was Joe Biden old? Yes. But he was also decent. Honest. Honorable. And he gave this nation every damn thing he had.
You want to debate whether he should’ve stepped aside? Fine.
But once he secured the nomination, that was his call to make & not yours. Not mine. Not anyone else’s.
A lot of folks, especially Black voters, the backbone of this party, looked around and wondered:
Why didn’t we stand by the man who always stood by us?
But what do I do now with all this ‘cognitive dissonance’? I’m sure, with all your privileged experience and supposed brilliance, you’ve got the answer.
@LouiseMensch@SymoneDSanders@JoeBiden@BarackObama@BlackKnight10k Louise do you think Biden would have had a better chance this time? I felt like he was the safer bet, but was thrown by his debate performance, and changed my mind when polls improved so much when they switched to Harris.
