    At least there’s always the possibility of a sex scandal taking Newsom down. Seems exceedingly likely to me. Fingers crossed.

        I hadn’t heard of this, I looked it up, and Jesus Christ. The wikipedia article on the topic was clearly written by the most misogynistic liberal they could find. I know it makes no sense, they don’t see us in the global south as people so of course I understand they’re monsters, but imagine still supporting Biden after shit like this is public.

          Even on the fediverse, speaking up about tara reade during the last election cycle, would get you banned from the liberal / correct the record fediverse servers.

          #MeToo gets dropped immediately as soon as it exposes US democrats as being part of the same epstein class.

            Biden admired and gave an eulogy for Strom Thurmond who defended racial segregation.

            He also lied to Anita Hill and told her he’d allow her to speak at Clarence Thomas’s confirmation hearing, and then shafted her. Citizens United passed by one supreme court vote, and thomas is the quintessential “originalist” on the court who has led this country down a dark path for decades. Biden also was the father of civil asset forfeiture, a cheerleader to go into Iraq, and he drafted the 1994 crime bill, which packed our prisons with 6x the people it used to have, many for silly nonsense. He couldnt even win his home state all the times he ran for president, and once had to drop out of a presidential campaign for plagerizing a speech. He’s a colossal idiot of epic proportions, even before you get to his taking AIPAC bribes through his whole career to aid and abet a genocide of innocents. He belongs in chains, and then sent on to Nuremberg where he should spend the rest of his days in a cell… at best.

              sorrryyy he’s the most progressive president since fdr and history began on october 7th 2022 anything before that didnt happen

              since we’re doing fun facts, did you know Nuremberg was a farce and there was more nazis in the west german government than the actual nazi government?

          And the same Libs who’ll blandly say they believe women when discussing Christine Blasey-Ford will call Tara Reade a lying Russian Asset™ and dismiss her entire story. A story which has exactly as much evidence in its favor as Dr Blasey-Ford’s.

            Even more so. And when she went through ‘the proper channels’ to report the incident they ruined her fucking life. And then they pointed to the wreckage and attacked her character over it.

      What century do you think you’re in? Unless Gavin Newsome fucked kids on camera in public with multiple witnesses he’s not getting taken down by a sex scandal.

      Biden groped kids on live TV and raped Tara Reade, he was allowed to run in 2020 and fuck up 2024.

        I think Dem candidates will be wall-to-wall in 2028, so it may not take all that much to knock his campaign off course compared to his rivals. Unfortunately, I highly doubt that means the Dems will instead put forward a reasonable candidate.
