Joe Biden 2024 thread - Dark Brandon Where Art Thou?

[troph 23995]

The prisoner swap was epic, sucks we have to give up real criminals for our people but that’s the game the fuckstain Putin plays. Why any American goes to Russia now is beyond me.

i love me some Kamala but i will miss Biden so much, his and his admin’s effectiveness in foreign policy and on Capitol Hill is unrivaled. 

I hope he can resolve the Gaza / Israel / Hamas hostage crisis and that war to a lasting cease fire before he leaves.

i think Kamala will be fine with Europe with respect to Ukraine and Putin, I do worry about the Mideast though. 

get it done Brandon!!

[troph 23995]

Btw there are still more in Russia including another medical marijuana prisoner / American English teacher Marc Fogel (and others).

Nah, right below you.  "Did Joe Biden fail to secure the release of enough prisoners?"

Jesus fucking Christ these people.  

"We just secured the release of several American prisoners ."

"What about that one teacher?  Is this a failure?"

My morning ritual is to open up the Wall Street Journal app and every single day. I’m reminded how he was imprisoned unfairly. I seriously hope one day somebody writes a book with an honest accounting of the conversations that took place between the WSJ and the White House.

Edit: just got a moment to actually read the article at WSJ, otherwise the audio version would be 53 minutes.

To the extent directed at me, that’s not what I was doing. I was applauding an epic win and adding this to the list of Biden’s “best president in my lifetime” accomplishments AND also acknowledging a desperate cry from a family that is still suffering. It’s just a note since we all (me included) are currently and temporarily paying attention to the issue. 
 

and my suspicion is Marc Fogel’s health condition makes him extremely valuable to Putin because he knows the Administration will want him home before he passes in a Russian prison. I also suspect that negotiation has been ongoing for years.

Thanks prolly so, I’ve gotten a lot more sensitive to the prisoners the last few years. I get worked up about it when it comes top of mind. People being arrested for leverage by a government freaks me the fuck out these days.

Posted in the “Inflation is making me eat my dog” thread, but the next two months see a full percentage point wiped off CPI. The last CPI reading before election could see Biden oversee inflation in the low 2%.
 

12 month -2.9%

Last 11 months - 2.3%

Last 10 months - 1.9%

Honestly, that's how every President should treat the media when they say stupid shit.  Why are they supposed to treat them with kid gloves?  That's how we got where we are in the first place.

Dotard treated the media like shit for asking legit, serious questions and he never answered anything, he just called them stupid.  Somehow that was ok.

“The price of bacon is up five times under President Joe Biden.”

-Turnip last week

 

At its peak under Biden, the price of bacon rose by 30%, not the 400% that it would be if Trump’s "five times" comment was correct.
 

After a subsequent decline in price, the increase during Biden’s presidency now stands at 11.5%. Today’s level is just 2% higher than its peak under Trump.

President Joey Glengarry finished his Medicare Negotiatin’ bidness and came back with you guessed it, a win for all. The only negotiations were how far his boot would go up their ass. This is truly a test case for how a President should mark the Art of a Deal.

9 out of 10 negotiations ended with a 50% cost reduction. How do you answer what is gouging?

I kinda like the idea of an outgoing president test driving all the new shit. get him in some stealth craft while we're at it.

Unless it’s one certain dipshit…he can pretend to test drive firetrucks.  Seems to really get his rocks off…

Joseph Biden, the creator of Bidenomics, aka the Dow Jones Daddy, continues to put on a show worthy of praise. The DJIA has closed at another all time high today.  Please buy an ice cream cone today to celebrate if it doesn't interfere with your $15 fast food lunch. You'll cry and hate yourself afterwards, but that's the McDonald's.
