After Supreme Court immunity ruling, Biden draws sharp contrast with Trump on obeying rule of law
After Supreme Court immunity ruling, Biden draws sharp contrast with Trump on obeying rule of law
President Joe Biden is seeking to put the focus squarely onto Donald Trump following his uneven debate performance last week.
President Joe Biden warned Monday that a Supreme Court ruling granting presidents broad immunity from prosecutionwould make an unchecked Republican Donald Trump “more emboldened to do whatever he wants” if he regains the White House in November’s election.
Biden, under intense pressure after his disastrous debate performance against Trump last week, urged Americans to think carefully about their election decision and signaled he had no intention of dropping out of the race.
Criticizing the decision by the court’s conservative majority — which all but guarantees Trump will not face trial in Washington ahead of the November election over his actions during the violent riot on Jan. 6, 2021 — Biden said it now fell to the American people “to do what the courts should have been willing to do but will not.
“The American people have to render judgment about Donald Trump’s behavior.”
Fuck that. Biden should make them regret this decision. If his candidacy is as DOA as everyone is pretending it is, then there's no incentive to play by the rules. Move fast and break stuff and get some shit done for a change.

They just had to get it in there. Not a mention of Trump making shit up the whole time, or the raving lunatic shit he's saying on the campaign trail. 90 minutes of Biden being low energy and it's all over. "The other guy is too old, maybe we can do a little fascism. That will be OK, right?"
Every time Biden had that "confused" look on his face during the debate, he was reacting to some absolute bullshit tRump had just said and the media turned it into "Biden confused". Biden WAS low energy, what was trump on? It is also easier to spew bullshit, when there is ABSOLUTELY NO PUSH BACK, then it is to remember ACTUAL facts. Watching the follow up I felt like I was being gaslit on what I actually watched
You have high hopes. Remember, you never know how far you can walk until you try to fly.
Sorry, are you suggesting that the media is against Biden? Cause they’ve been for him for months. Any apprehension about his future prospects have nothing to do with Trump being a lying sack of shit. I won’t apologize for Biden sucking. I do like the idea of him turning the scotus ruling on them.
What media have you been looking at? The only thing I've seen about Biden for months has been about how he's too old. And occasionally a bit about him supporting Israel, whether that's presented in a positive or negative light.
“I know I will respect the limits of presidential power as I have for the three-and-a-half years, but any president, including Donald Trump, will now be free to ignore the law,”
"Yes we may be in a steel cage wrestling match. But I'm still going to follow gentlemens rules. Those tables, chairs and ladders are off-limits to me; My moral superiority will win the day."
Tom Howard voiceover: "It didn't"
He needs to take the gloves off. The traitors are literally acting out their plan for a civil war and democrats are waiting there bent over to take it.
This speech was a capitulation by Biden. He basically said 'no, executive isn't going to check the judiciary.' His response is 'people need to vote's? What? Where's the vision or game plan to overturning this?
It's so fucking simple to grasp the shortfalls here.I'm hoping he's just giving us a chance to correct this. That will do good in the long run if we manage it. Should we fail it is also my hope that he uses his remaining time in the chair to abuse those executive powers to all hell.
In reality, yes, he could do more right now.
Why would he do that though?
Biden is the status quo president, why would he be a martyr?
President Joe Biden warned Monday that a Supreme Court ruling granting presidents broad immunity from prosecutionwould make an unchecked Republican Donald Trump “more emboldened to do whatever he wants” if he regains the White House in November’s election.
And the justices kind of looked around quizzically and said "Yeah...no shit, that's the whole idea. Did you just get that?"
He's spelling it out for voters to get them off their asses. People said "yeah right" in 2016 when the ones who were paying attention said that the scotus was on the ballot, and it turns out we were right. It's probably good to hear the calm warnings straight from him rather than just from "alarmist" friends, relatives, and coworkers this time.
It makes him look even more out of touch with the moment though and incompetent.
If he's still unwilling to back a campaign to court pack and still unwilling to remove the biggest obstacle to a possible Democratic win in November (himself), his words mean very little. It's just more too little too late by Biden.
A gesture that has no meaning and even less significance
"To the violent, non-violence means nothing"
Drop. The. Fuck. Out. You are going to fucking lose you geriatric fuck and SCOTUS just ensured that Trump will use his power to be a dictator when he's elected.
If people will let a fascist win just because Biden is “too old” then they deserve their fate!
I didn't care what the fuck other people deserve. I can't control how other people act, but I'll have to live with the same outcome as them.
Quit trying to justify the unjustifiable.
America is absolutely cooked. Biden won’t do shit.
FUCKING DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT THEN JOE.
Get off your geriatric ass and do something..
Spineless fucking pseudo-conservative.
Pseudo?
Relative to what America considers conservative.
He needs to pledge to over turn this, and citizens united, put the us on a trail path
show, don't tell.
but you're a pussy so you won't. and we're gonna have to see what TFG actually does with it.
About a month ago I made this comment about Biden jailing trump:
https://sh.itjust.works/comment/11668328
People downvoted at the time but I knew the writing was on the wall. We were always gonna arrive here in 4 years.
Trump wouldn't be the first candidate to campaign from jail.
Not even the second.
Every move like this gets them closer and closer to full on fascism, and gives them more and more power to destroy us and all we can do is hope the idiot democrats put a stop to it, even though all they're doing is sTrOnGlY cOnDeMnInG their actions...
That is what they are counting on!
Biden was a sharp contrast to trump regarding the law before the SCOTUS ruling, too.
Ok... sooooo... has anyone ELSE seen the photo of the most blood thirsty terrorist group in history? Had uh, the Clintons, the Bush Family, the Obamas, etc in a nice snug family portrait. Was missing a certain orange baboon & his ilk however :| they're clowns not terrorists though
This is a totally sane person
This is your brain on breitbart*
Uhhh... Are you alright? Do we need to call your mom?
what are you talking about?
To quote his own guy, "I don't know what he said and I don't think he does either."
Having a touch of the !aneurysmposting I see
Whose debate coach were you?
Do you even have the ability to think in a straight line? What is this even supposed to mean? You write like someone with dementia
It looks like nobody involved in this story understands the concept of consequences. Trump can be now disappeared without repercussions. The judges that voted this could be arrested with their families and everybody they know. And Biden may be facing the same situation in a few months if he doesn't do something drastic immediately. Is somebody putting LSD in the water supplies? I don't understand how anybody on either side can think this is a good idea.
Edit: what i mean is the clock is ticking now, Trump already said what he's going to do if he goes back to office. Unfortunately now it's you or them.
Hey biden you are the fucking president right now why don't you use your new freedom to do something
Except for this law.
IANAL, he is probably breaking other laws too.
Except you didn't even read the law. It absolutely is not broken at all.
