President Joe Biden
Right now, we need VP Biden, we need him to step down and drop out so Bernie sanders can save this country from this glo
funny how you think this isn't big story. I can't stand Trump and think he's a career conman. That doesn't mean I can't talk about this Biden news and find it repugnant that it was hidden from the general public, likely for years.Both parties are absolutely disgusting.I'm almost never in the politics forum. But kind of strange you're the moderator of it, and don't want to talk
Weird how our credit rating gets slashed because trump administration is so incompetent yet you are here to speculate on Bidens pancreatic cancer because you are an awful person
look, lets just put all of this behind us and get back to focusing on how he can win in 2028, ok

Talking about the biggest story of the day from a political perspective IN A POLITICS FORUM makes someone an "awful person?" That's pretty out there, man.
edit: Have you considered moderating the Limit Hold'Em Forum instead of P&S?
An ex president about to die isn’t a bigger political story than active policy. Do you even know anything about the big beautiful bill?

Looking at your own posts for today, I think you've posted more in this thread than any other thread today.
I dislike much (most?) of the Big Beautiful Bill.
Coordi : 10 posts in this thread today. 1 post on the "biggest story of the day" (Budget bill) .
Can't make this stuff up, folks.
It’s not surprising that all the righty’s come out the woodwork to talk tabloids and are completely ignoring the important stuff going on. It’s what we accuse yall of all the time
In before I dunno who “yall” are I’m an ultra conservative centrist who only talks about leftist shortcomings

Do you think the credit rating reduction is Trump alones fault ? I guess Biden ran a surplus

Yes I'm an awful person for commenting on the fact our recent ex President likely had cancer for year while serving and it was hidden from us. It's amazing you not only pretend this is some how irrelevant, but that people are terrible for talking about it.
But definitely not terrible- the people engaging in blatant elder abuse who had him run in the first place, denying he was losing it for years and then forcing in their nominee when even they could parrot that like anymore- got it.
It's also prostate cancer not pancreatic cancer. Pancreatic cancer is extremely hard to detect unlike prostate cancer. If it were pancreatic cancer then it would make sense nobody knew he had it while President.
Like I said both sides are an absolute disgrace and your precious Dems who were also doing an absolutely terrible job are a big reason by President Orange Con man is in office.
In fact if they didn't force Bernie out for Hillary there's a good chance Trump would have lost in 2016 and that would have been the last we heard of him as far as politics go.
Did they learn from that mistake? Of course not. Did they learn from 2024? Nope they cry racism and sexism for Harris's loss. But yea it's totally irrelevant Biden was sick with cancer and likely had chemo brain often while serving. Cool story.
Is it ok if in a few weeks I comment on the NBA finals in the sporting events thread? I know that is as crazy as commenting on this Biden news in the politics thread so I don't want to make anymore mistakes.

Of course its his fault alone lmao. Who implemented EOs that are actively causing enough chaos to halt the economy?
They literally told us they were ****ing up the economy for this fantastical promise land at some vague point in the distant future
I don't expect you to follow all of this as a Canadian, but yeah this is all Trumps mess.

have you read the rating agency reasoning as to why the credit rating is being changed?
why do you have an opinion about it if you didn't read that?

Well let’s see I do remember Trump first term and Biden accumulated massive debts as well . Trump will add another 4 trillion
Oh Trump sucks on the economy but Biden did as well

This one-notch downgrade on our 21-notch rating scale reflects the increase over more than a decade in government debt and interest payment ratios to levels that are significantly higher than similarly rated sovereigns.
Successive US administrations and Congress have failed to agree on measures to reverse the trend of large annual fiscal deficits and growing interest costs. We do not believe that material multi-year reductions in mandatory spending and deficits will result from current fiscal proposals under consideration. Over the next decade, we expect larger deficits as entitlement spending rises while government revenue remains broadly flat. In turn, persistent, large fiscal deficits will drive the government's debt and interest burden higher. The US' fiscal performance is likely to deteriorate relative to its own past and compared to other highly-rated sovereigns.

it's every ****ing single democrat and most republicans.
everyone who isn't willing to dramatically reduce spending (which REQUIRES telling a lot of people to **** off for themselves and live a lot worse) is responsible.
only some republicans are on record willing to stop the spigot and let the poor **** off.
no democrats are, no other republicans are.
some democrats are ok with higher taxes but none of them with enough taxes to stop.the bleeding, because the amount of taxes needed to stop the bleeding would cause riots and the party proposing them to lose for 30 years in elections.
it's not Trump. it's your country being accostumed to get into debt to pay current expensese like degenerate gamblers mortgaging the house every NFL game.
one party exists to keep the spigot open for the less productive people in society, the trash, and to give them the goodies "for free".
the other could care less about them but wants to govern, so can't close the spigot that feeds the trash if it wants to win elections.

There are far too many upper 50s boomers who consume moderate amounts of conservative media who say "both sides are bad" while endlessly holding Democrats to task and voting Republican.

You almost bolded the pertinent part
They are saying that current efforts to reduce spending are fruitless and the tariff plan to increase revenue wont work. Its a direct response to changes in economic policy
if you are poor and aren't exceptionally smart you shouldn't get a ****ing dollar to go to college from the government. go to work and be thankful you can eat , nobody owes you a thing.
if you are poor you shouldn't get bloated complete healthcare for free: only very rationed low quality healthcare and emergency care at most.
the middle class should pay higher payroll taxes to get the same social security and Medicare.
the rich should get smaller deductions and a lower amount of loopholes to reduce their fiscal take.
every demographic is getting treated with velvet gloves by a country that is going bankrupt.
because you can be rich but overspend anyway and that's what the USA does, and has being doing for a while.

jfc deficit under previous policy was over 6% at close to full employment.
that's a disaster against all macroeconomics BEFORE Trump does anything

I don't care. I'm not in my 50's and I don't watch Fox news or any of that crap.
Guess what some people really do hate both sides.
But yea I'm a terrible person for talking about this lmao.

Then why aren't you posting in the "important stuff" thread?
Might be best lead by example(?)
You've literally posted in this thread about as much as I have today.
Assuming that Biden and his whole team lied about and covered up metastasizing cancer so that he could run for president knowing he would be physically and mentally unfit to campaign and dead shortly into the term so that you can feel good about trump being president does present one as of questionable character
