John Oliver FINALLY gets it: “I am mad for trans people who’ve been threatened. I’m disgusted at the prospect of mass deportation. I’m furious at Biden for not dropping out earlier and that the egos and inaction of two men older than credit cards themselves have led us to this point,”
Still arguing both sides are the same, eh John?
This is why Trump is President-Elect. You should have picked a side. Instead you decided to go with blaming Democrats.
Own it.

When was John Oliver a both sides guy? Sounds more like Jon Stewart.
@Helical_Code @feloneouscat He isn't. Neither is Jon Stewart. This is a mischaracterization.
He isn't remotely saying they are equivalent. He IS SAYING Biden let his own ego get in front of what was best for the country.
Pelosi was right. He started implying he was a transition president, making way for someone else. Then he reneged and it took too damned long to accept reality and step down.
Biden did a lot of good. But he also contributed to this massive failure being stubborn.
@S_r_stone
Not to negate any of this, but I think you have to wind back to at least 2008 to get at all of the dynamics in play.
@Helical_Code @feloneouscat. Hell, I count most evil back to 1980 with Reagan and Newt.
But just because some elder person in Congress had a good career doesn't mean they deserve to hurt their side by holding on waaay too long. Diane Feinstein is personally responsible for holding up judge appointments.
I used to oppose term limits, but if we can't otherwise remove the incumbent advantage then I reconsider, particularly the Senate.
SCOTUS terms should be 20 years rather than lifetime, too.
