Crazy he didn’t notice the USA has been an oligarchy the whole time lmao.
This warning would not have happened if Harris had won but the oligarchy would still exist. Bit too late to notice it now.
Crazy he is laundering billions of dollars for military contractors by funneling them into a genocide
Shoveling money to defense contractors is as American as Apple pie.
I no longer have any charity for these outgoing presidential remarks. What he is saying makes sense, but given that he didn’t bring this up or do anything about it when he had power, these sentiments are hollow pandering at best. Fuck you Joe Biden, your legacy is that you presided over the dissolution of American democracy and did genocide. No hollow words on your way out will change that.
Joe biden lost a winnable election due to his own vanity and lack of human decency. Fuck him. He governed better than any democrat since what Lindon Johnson? But its far too little too late to pay for a lifetime of fucking people over
Biden was an og Congressional neoliberal. A prominent one. He helped Reagan convert Republican’s former opposition party into the corpo bribe taking, social inclusion!.. Economic die in the streets… party it is today, locking arms with Republicans to defend our murderous economy from us as they stoke social division between us so we don’t look up at our sociopath owners.
Voted for him out of harm reduction compared to Trump, a vote for quiet not peace, but fuck Joe Biden.
I agree fuck him he wasn’t bad but boy did he lack a spine
It really impressed me how he pardoned that corrupt judge on the way out. Just to prevent anyone from having positive memories of him.
Not even any corrupt judge. He pardoned the Cash4Kids judge.
Yeah, thanks dude, for not actually doing anything about it. Enjoy your millions in retirement.
Thanks for the comments to read through. I can now confidently say that America is a failed experiment based on these conversations alone.
I see only hate for Joe, but you’ll miss him. You have 4 looong years ahead of you to think about that… Or more.
This just in: Oligarch warns about other oligarchs
"Today, an oligarchy is taking shape in America of extreme wealth, power and influence that literally threatens our entire democracy
Taking shape? Like it’s new? Like it’s only now just emerging? Jesus Christ, Biden…
Fucking neoliberal trash.
Sleepy Joe is a good nickname because apparently he’s been asleep for the last 50 years.
Guess you shoulda done something about that Joe. Like say, when you were president?
He did. He helped build it.
Properly prosecute Trump, for example.
Pretty fucking rich to warn everyone of the tech industial complex that he himself had a direct hand in creating with the Patriot Act. This kickstarted the idea of the US three leters creating PRISM and basically created an impermeable blanket of protection for big tech to spy on Americans and then turn around and sell that data back to the goverment.

Thanks for the warning Joe. Too bad you didn’t do everything you could have done to prevent it.
“Today, an oligarchy is taking shape in America of extreme wealth, power and influence that threatens our entire democracy, our basic rights, the freedoms and the fair shot for everyone to get ahead,” Biden said.
You could have spoken up about this and done something about it over the last 4 years buddy.
He said democracy was at stake more times than I can count. But he was met with laughter, old man jokes, humiliation, claims of hyperbole and fear mongering, and takes like this from media:

But eggs went up 25¢ so Hitler.
I mean he should’ve put his money where his mouth was in Trump’s prosecution. The fact that Trump is walking free right now is unequivocally the fault of Biden and Garland.
Maybe if he could speak with more gusto than a dying electronic greeting card, we’d actually believe that he meant it.
He said democracy was at stake more times than I can count

These are not related. He was met with that treatment after saying 1 thing (democracy is in danger) while being a pathetic choice for saving it yet continuing on anyway. The actual response to him claiming danger was “cool, whatcha gonna do about it?”
“Democracy is in danger! That’s why I, Me. We Beat Medicare, should stay in the race until the last minute!”
“Democracy is in danger, so I’m going to run a campaign which specifically and exclusively caters to the Nazis that put us in danger rather than spend an ounce of time appealing to the base”
“Democracy is in danger, so when my internal polls show I’m going to get creamed this election, I’m going to stay in and tell the world I’m sundowning”
“Democracy is in danger, so I’m going to spend the next year sending billions to a fascist nation committing genocide despite 70% of Americans opposition and 90% of my base hating that move”
Fuck Biden and the DNC for putting us in this position. When a fascist rose, y’all spent your time jacking each other off about the importance of legacy. Your legacy is ashes and a public that despises you.
It’s only an oligarchy bc he lost
Before that, too. He’s very much contributed to it himself, what with the bankruptcy bill, that awful crime bill that was so beneficial to the oligarchs who profit from carceral slavery, his tireless advocacy for MBNA, and much, much more.
His political NASCAR jacket would be so full that you wouldn’t be able to read the individual names, but it would have an enormous Israeli flag on it.
What is it that you propose he had done in the last 4 years?
The 2016 Maga tax plan doesn’t expire until 2026, so that’s out the window.
Executive orders can’t really do much about economy or individuals.
Congress was deadlocked senate 50:50 and house majority was lost in 2022.
The FTC and other federal offices were already investigating monopolies and giving out massive record breaking billions in fines.
He cancelled billions if not trillion or more in debts for students, veterans, medical debts, etc.
The treasury and the fed controlling rates reversed the inflation that peaked in his first year as president despite it not serving the interests of hedge funds.
Seems like Biden was a good president who followed the rules and did everything that he could.
Rank choice voting.
I don’t think a president can decide how elections are done, for obvious reasons. Thats definitely for Congress and individual states to decide, moreso the latter as each state decides how to alott their EC votes themselves.
Did he try? Was it even part of his agenda?
No, because he doesn’t want it to change. Because he’s a plutocrat.
He shouldn’t try, thats what despots do. Trump can try changing how elections are done and maybe the good people fight him off or maybe this country gets what it deserves and sets an example for future generations.
Lol, no. No despot ever made elections more democratic
No, they don’t, because any individual in power who changes elections is always the person you don’t want changing elections.
You have to realize that any singular person cannot comprehend the relative good or bad of their actions and therefor all good moral principles come from selflessly putting that power in the hands of voters.
If people want to change how voting works, they have that option. The USA are just dumbasses who keep voting against it.
It is not and was never Biden’s job to fix everything at every level of government.
Should retire, right now, so Kamila is president for a few days. Just so technically she’s a president. Just to annoy trump
Just to make all those Trump 47 bumper stickers look silly.
I’m not a fan of any of them but this would be hilarious.
I am personally for small fuckery to Trump fans, just to make them squirm and piss their pants.
let me be frank, they’d feverishly fork over a few more fistfuls of fiat for some fashionable forty-eight fittings
Ah yes, the healthy Democracy of a developed nation…
wanton baby murder wasn’t enough to get him to change his position, so, i wouldn’t hold my breath about this one
Are you trolling or in it for the long game? Cause, there might not be any Palestinians left next time the US gets to vote.
i don’t know why you’re bitching at me when i agree with you lol
Cause you’re selling when there is nothing to sell. And you are doing in an ineffective way. You don’t wake the normies up by screeching at them.
She’s already been Sitting President, if you count that.
Thank God Joe promised to address this issue before taking office:
“Nothing will fundamentally change.”
Ah. Die of gonorrhea and burn in hell, then.
President Biden warns of ‘oligarchy’ as he bids farewell to five decades in
politicsservice to the oligarch-beholden establishmentFixed it for them.
If we allowed Biden and the DNC to write the tax plans it would have made billionaires eat shit. Instead the country reelected the guys who made the last awful tax plan just as it expires next year.
He did try many times to get rid of student loans, only for Trump’s judicial picks to say it’s illegal to forgive loans of poor people
Fun fact: if he hadn’t deliberately means tested student loan forgiveness to death, the GOP lawyers wouldn’t have been able to argue discrimination and he knew that.
He wanted the credit for trying, but his owner donors didn’t want his “attempt” to actually succeed.
and he knew that.
Or
He’s a fucking liberal that believes means-testing actually works.
Except for all the times that it doesn’t. This is one of those times.
People who are rich enough to not need student loan forgiveness don’t have student loans in the first place. Either they come from a rich family that paid for their college or they did so themselves after becoming rich.
With that in mind, means testing student loan forgiveness to death was a hell of a lot of downside including the argument that the fascists used to kill it, in exchange for absolutely no upside.
Regardless of his personal beliefs, half a century worth of experience should be WAY more than necessary to find out how things work regardless of how you think they SHOULD work.
He either knew that means testing would doom it to failure and did it anyway, means tested it BECAUSE he knew it would cause it to fail, or he was WAY too incompetent and naive for someone who’d been in the game for longer than most people have been ALIVE.
Either way, he fucked it up.
Except for all the times that it doesn’t. This is one of those times.
Whether it actually works has nothing to do with whether he believes it works.
Whether or not he believes in something working after FIFTY YEARS of trying and mostly failing it says a lot about how stubborn and/or bad at his job he is.
If we allowed Biden and the DNC to write the tax plans
We did. As usual, they didn’t do what they and people like yourself who’s drunk the kool-aid keep pretending they’re going to do.
“They”? I think you mean Sinema and “Mansion”.
I mean them, Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, Jeffries, and the rest of the DNC leadership.
We literally didn’t, lol, the Trump era tax plans expire next year.
He was president and the Dems had congressional majorities for some of the time. If they really wanted to significantly overhaul the tax code, they could have.
They want to PRETEND that they’re on the side of the people against the billionaires to fool the gullible into thinking that they’re the good guys rather than the least bad ones, but they know who pays them and it ain’t you…
The senate was a 50:50 deadlock unable to pass anything without Republicans agreeing or they faced filibuster, and even then they needed all 48/47 DNC and independents to vote in unison if none of the Republicans crossed the isle, then utilize VP tiebreaker.
The house was a DNC majority for only his first two years.
And as I explained to you multiple times, the tax plan did not expire under Biden’s presidency.
