It's almost like a military psychological operation is being conducted in this country. I wonder where they learned that?
@KGinKS Pop psychology will be the death of us all, lol...
@JasonCrocker616 I hadn't considered the Harris angle, but now that you bring it up that makes sense. I'm sure she could be a great President if given that chance.
@Excal2mark she would continue the progress forward, if not hasten that growth/evolution even faster, I think, even with her flaws.
@JasonCrocker616 Same. I was telling my daughter that, while Obama ran as a progressive, he actually governed as a centrist. Even the ACA was based on an old GOP plan. (Don't get me wrong, I'm very glad they at least got that through!)
Biden ran as a centrist, but he's been governing as, well, a progressive-leaning, pro-labor centrist, which is a lot more bones than progressives have gotten from the WH since at least Carter. #politics
@sanau @JasonCrocker616 Yes, I remember Biden "helping" the railroad workers a few months ago. Sort of like how Reagan "helped" the pilots and air traffic controllers.
Biden _says_ he is pro-labor. He's not that good at walking his talk to us.
@AskTheDevil @sanau My stepfather was an air traffic controller back then, and I do believe, in my opinion, that Biden treated these railroad workers 100% better than Reagan did the ATCs.
I'd probably think I was biased, but I despised my stepfather, lol...
@JasonCrocker616 @sanau He didn't fire all of them. He did unashamedly break their strike, though. It was in all the news.
The question of Pres. Biden's age has been coming up a lot lately, and I agree that a lot of it is a racist dog whistle, as the attack is based on the "other side's" fear of a Black female President in the former of VP Kamala Harris, but there was something else there as well.
A realization it forced on me.
The Republicans have lost all sense of independent thinking, they can ONLY think in terms of hive-mind thoughts.
