"Like I told Barack, if I reach something where there's a fundamental disagreement we have based on a moral principle, I'll develop some disease and say I have to resign." So if the President of the United States has a disagreement with his VP, he is going to tell us he has a disease and resign? The pres is going to resign because his subordinate disagrees with him? These next four years are going to be many things, and entertaining is certainly going to be one of them.
When did he say that?
Two days ago. https://www.foxnews.com/media/joe-bi...fIelOsvyLoVjv4
Yeah I found all the right wing spin on Biden's comments.
Biden jokes ‘he’ll RESIGN and develop mystery disease’ if he ever argues with VP Kamala Harris (thesun.co.uk)
Yeah it will be interesting and I expect you wingers will jump on everything. It is your turn though to be fair and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.Quote:
Biden, 78, said: "Our philosophy of government is sympatico on how we want to approach these issues that we're facing.
"And when we disagree, we just – so far it's been just like when Barack [Obama] and I did - it's in private. She'll say 'I think we should do A,B,C, or D.' And I'll say 'I like A, I don't like B and C' - and just go 'okay.'
And Biden concluded with "And we [he and Harris, the same as he and Obama] don’t have that…and we’ve discussed at length our views on foreign policy, on domestic policy, on intelligence.”
I see that conservative websites are turning a short humorous comment (a JOKE, guys!!!) into something it wasn't meant to be. Like Mom telling you, "You can have three of those freshly baked chocolate chip cookies after you've gone over the Horseshoe Falls in a barrel."
In other words, "No, we're NOT going to disagree!" and "No, you're NOT getting any cookies!"
He said, just seconds before that comment, "All kidding aside." So no, I don't think we can say it was a humorous statement. But even at that, why would he think that HE would be the one to go? And if he really thinks the two of them will not disagree, then his cognition really needs to be checked. That's Alice in Wonderland thinking.
But even worse, if he really agrees with all of KH's thinking, then we are in worse trouble than I thought.
JL, relax!!! You're turning this into something much bigger than it was. Jokers will say, "all kidding aside." That's how you know for sure they're kidding.
And no, Biden doesn't agree with Harris on everything. Remember the debates???
Why should he do interviews ? This hiding in the basement worked great during the campaign .He is the Tiberius of America. The leader who goes into a self imposed exile .
Hiding in the basement ... or ... DISASTER! having superspreader rallies and events rife with packed-together crowds, hand shaking, hugging and kissing...no masks, no social distancing....
Talk shows ... the host is "in his basement" interviewing the guests who are "in their basements." Watch The View, Dr. Phil, Rachael Ray, Kelly Clarkson, and even the new season of sitcoms that have been filmed very carefully and strategically.
Yeah. That makes a lot of sense.Quote:

Well, you said they did. "And we [he and Harris, the same as he and Obama] don’t have that"Quote:
And no, Biden doesn't agree with Harris on everything.
So if they disagree, he's stepping down? My. How reassuring.
Reading comprehension is not your forte, JL.
Bad when a teacher can't READ or comprehend. He must be a right wing loony in disguise.
Admitting when you are plainly and obviously wrong is your weakness. And when you can't do that, would that make you a dufus left winger in disguise?
WG, I think it's always the argument of the weak or uninformed when they appeal to nothing more than someone else's reading comprehension. In other words, "I can't find the information to persuade you, so that is somehow your fault." Very strange approach.
Tal, I still can't get over that comment of yours. "Homey ain't gonna like that one." In what unused corner of your mind did that one come from?
...he said about himself, remembering all those times in the past when he was yelled at.Quote:

How do you manage to be so frequently wrong? It's a gift, isn't it??Quote:

You said that last time. Sigh. You were flat wrong, so we don't believe that wild tale anymore. Too close to a lie for comfort.Quote:

Look at the post 112 right above it as well. You flatly told a falsehood, or you were grossly mistaken. Either way, I don't pay attention to your sighs anymore.
I fail to see what that has to do with the question about why Quid doesn't do interviews . I follow him on Twitter and all he does is word salad platitudes .Quote:

(1) Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) / Twitter
When he does interviews it is almost with pop pom waving pseudo journalists /entertainers like Jimmy Fallon . The toughest one he has had is with Jake Tapper where he described how he ran naked down the hallway trying to pull his dog's tail . That is allegedly how he broke his foot. You and I know that was a lie.
During the campaign he fielded nothing but softball questions like the one he did with '60 Minutes ' right before the election .
By contrast Trump routinely went into the lion's den at CNN et al knowing he would field one 'gotcha question ' after another .
Quid's great plan for covid ...... wear masks .
Thankfully, I did not see that interview.Quote:

Exactly correct. The biased news media is a big reason Trump lost this thing. That and his own stubborn stupidity.Quote:

The dufus words antics and behavior got the dem vote out, and even long time repubs were motivated against him. No matter the right wing spin and criticism Joe did enough to win or not to lose even while the dufus increased his support base.
Outcome Joe! Conservatives have been crying about the lamestream media so long it's no wonder they get a raw deal. That and just being raging lunatics most times with a callous disregard for the rest of us with their openly biased shenanigans that turn off the the poor and have nots which they're finding out have some huge numbers when they turn out to exercise their franchise.
A robust turn out worked against the dufus and collectively, hopefully the emotional political volume was turned down considerably. Ultimately the fear of sickness, death, and financial ruin was too much for the dufus usual BS to overcome against a highly well known experienced favorable politician!
Right wing hollering points just didn't stick, yet that's all you guys had. 3 years of BS lies didn't help conservatives either as far as the dufus was concerned.
1. Record low unemployment figures. 2. Substantial economic growth. 3. Substantial growth in manufacturing jobs, far, far more than Obama ever had. 4. Appointment of fed judges who actually value the Constitution and rule of law. 5. Got rid of the useless Paris Climate Accords. 6. Got rid of a useless treaty with Iran. 7. At least made a start on a southern wall in order to control illegal immigration. 8. Moved the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem. 9. Fast tracked COVID vaccine. 10. Drew down overseas troop deployments. 11. Substantially increased U.S. exports. 12. Growth in the stock market. 13. Kept N. Korea under control. 14. Achieved American energy independence. 15. Held the American economy together during COVID epidemic and surpassed predictions in lowering unemployment BY FAR.
I think you're the one with the BS.
Might want to also remember that we gained seats in the House and in state legislatures, and have a good shot at holding the Senate. The fact that the left could not use the COVID tragedy to make more progress is telling. I'll predict right now that the dems will have massive losses in the House and Senate after two years of Harris/Pelosi/AOC.
We booted the dufus from office to put an end to red meat racists delusions of grandeur by you wingers. All those so called accomplishments are talking points of the past. Half of them are puffed up talking points and the other half are meaning less lies. Right wing loony BS.
Nice spin to keep your heads from exploding. Go ahead finish off the rest of the repub party or what's left of those scoundrels.
Yet another well-reasoned, logical, coherent response about heads exploding, racist delusions, "meaning less lies", and scoundrels.
Thank you! Bout time you figured it out.
You can certainly be assured that I have it figured out.
Care to share?
Sure. I tallied fifteen or so accomplishments of the Trump admin. You could not contradict any of them, so you just went off on an incoherent rant.
In my neighborhood we don't pat ourselves on the back, and you only get credit for a job well done after the job has been well done. I'm on record on this forum for that regarding past presidents. To your list specifically
1. Record low unemployment figures. Did US Unemployment Reach Record Low Due to Trump? (snopes.com)
2. Substantial economic growth. Trump’s Economic Scorecard: 3 Years In Office (forbes.com)Quote:
The president rightly takes credit for having low unemployment during his presidency. In December of 2019, the unemployment rate was a scant 3.5 percent, the lowest it had been in 50 years.
However, as good as that number was, when Trump took office the rate was already at 4.7 percent. That figure is quite low by historical standards (lower than all of the 1980s as well as most of the 1990s and 2000s). In December of 2017, it was the lowest the number had been since the Great Recession. In fact, Obama saw a much steeper drop in unemployment in his second term, a 3.3 drop in the rate, than Trump did in his first three years, a decline of 1.2 points.
3. Substantial growth in manufacturing jobs, far, far more than Obama ever had.
Fact-check: Did Trump overstate manufacturing job gains during debate? (statesman.com)
4. Appointment of fed judges who actually value the Constitution and rule of law.
TBD
5. Got rid of the useless Paris Climate Accords.
To be rectified
6. Got rid of a useless treaty with Iran.
To be renegotiated
7. At least made a start on a southern wall in order to control illegal immigration.
YUP!
8. Moved the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem.
PFFFT
9. Fast tracked COVID vaccine.
Under discussion
10. Drew down overseas troop deployments.
One I can give you...good or bad.
11. Substantially increased U.S. exports.
Trump's War on US Exports | PIIE
12. Growth in the stock market.
OKAY? Even with the trillions of dollars of infusion by Fed....
13. Kept N. Korea under control. Threat from nuclear weapons has grown under Trump administration | The Independent
14. Achieved American energy independence. The REAL story
15. Held the American economy together during COVID epidemic and surpassed predictions in lowering unemployment BY FAR.
Sure with trillions in bailouts which ain't a bad thing, but are expiring in the next few weeks unless the congress acts again.
sounds like you are a Trump fan Tal if a little reluctant. No list like that could be produced for Obumma
It's jlisenbe's list with TAL's comments for each.Quote:

As to the second point, that we had substantial economic growth in his first three years was not even disputed, so what was the point? And right in middle of the article was this: "Unemployment rate is about as low as it can go." Did you see that?
As to the third point, you have somewhat of an issue there. There is no question but that manufacturing has grown substantially under Trump. In fact, 2019 was the best year in the past 30 years. "U.S. enjoys best manufacturing jobs growth of the last 30 years."

...despite Trump.
LOL, Obama brought the rate to 4.7 after the recession highs, but the dufus dropping it down a point gives him credit for record lows. You wingers are LOONY!Quote:

Why post an old link, acknowledged there were positives during Trump's term, and now we will see what positives Biden will round up, reducing covid deaths would be a big plus
I'm throwing rocks at JL, maybe you should duck! Hard to give a selfish lying, cheating dufus any credit while he carries on with this shameless attempt to subvert the will of the people. State repubs aren't doing what he dictates and neither is his new fixer Barr, or his handpicked SCOTUS.Quote:

He couldn't have done what he done without Obama doing what he did could he? Like the repub dufus before him, this repub dufus leaves with a mess the new guy has to clean up.
Will you give this dufus credit for that?
No one has suggested otherwise, but that does not mean that the economy did not set records for low unemployment under his four years.Quote:
He couldn't have done what he done without Obama doing what he did could he?
As to leaving a mess, that is really a crazy statement. Have you heard of the COVID virus that has messed up the entire world's economy? And aren't you the guy who has been loudly claiming that we have been paying TOO MUCH attention to the economy???
TDS. The symptoms are very clear.
If I started on 3rd base I could score too! If HC had been elected, she would have set records too!Quote:

Is that as bad as SSDUDA? I doubt it. My symptoms have cleared and I hope yours do to.Quote:

Obama had eight years and didn't get it done. HC would have done it? Sure she would have.Quote:

Nah. One is a recognized malady that actually has a Wikipedia page, and you have an abundance of symptoms. The other is just an dumb comment.Quote:
