“Just the other day a defeated-looking man came up to me and said, ‘Mr. President, I have crushing debt, and I’m completely wiped out,’” Biden said at a fundraiser. “And I had to look at him and say, ‘Donald, I’m sorry. I can’t help you.’”
I’ll assume you understand metaphor/wordplay despite the jab.
You place Trump in remotely the same category as the “poors” which is comical. Obviously Biden doesn’t make this joke about moms on WIC, etc., ie the real poors. You use more charged language like “millionaire president”, but when was the last president who wasnt wealthy? What is your point? You can’t place the Bidens’ wealth remotely near the true robber barons, but thats what you attempt to evoke.
You have not presented facts, but rather used manipulative language endearing to Trump
Idk Biden making jibes and jokes makes him appear mentally with it which contrasts the fox news narrative. It’s not as mean spirited as Trump has been and even comes off as tongue in cheek IMO. I can see more positives than negatives, but I can also see it being spun by hacks, sure.
This particular joke was aimed at none other than Trump, so you saying this is Biden dunking on the poors does place you in a precarious position of calling Dolan a “poor” and defending him
Biden has been paid over 5 million dollars since 1990 by pro Israel groups. That’s what you’re celebrating here. The rich politician who’s aiding a genocide making fun of being poor…
that’s $150K a year over 30 years, and that’s aggregated from numerous groups. He’s raised something like 70 million in the last year alone. Is your point that the influence from “pro Israel” groups is statistical noise?
But the numbers don’t add up. He’s probably being paid more money from people that want him to stop. I’m saying the money doesn’t seem to have any influence one way or the other.
Dear leader scored 18 straight holes-in-one, and furthermore accomplished this feat whilst riding a patriotic unicorn and leading its vulnerable offspring to a new, highly advanced North Korean Unicorn Habitat, simultaneously fighting off multiple waves of Capitalist Bear and Tiger covert assault forces!
It’s awkward phrasing and needs a hyphen between golfing and talented, but I think it’s generally cromulent. The way I read it is that it was a challenge because there’s a large number of members who are talented at golfing.
That said, when it’s your club, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab them by the trophy. You can do anything.
I also like this one:
Not my style of campaigning but that’s a solid zinger there ngl
Millionaire president tells poors to get fucked. American as Apple pie.
Is your back okay? Those mental gymnastics look hard for even someone half your age
When you grow up you’ll realize mental gymnastics aren’t a physical action.
Which part of my comment would you say is disingenuine?

I’m saying it’s poor messaging by the dems. This is ammo for Fox News and the like.
Not all criticism of the president is support for Trump.

Just that particular poor.

Just that a neoliberal will excuse literal genocide if it’s their guy being paid to do it.

Well I brought receipts and you brought assumptions. Looks a lot like bribery from here.
Also who the fuck are you? only $150,000 a year for 30 years??
what receipts? You posted a number and no proof. I literally just did math on your comment.
and 150K is one fifth of one percent (0.02%) of what the DNC raised the last quarter of 2023.
If you’re trying to prove money==influence, you’ve successfully argued that no one is buying much of any influence with DNC for $150K a year.
I’m not even arguing for or against your point, I’m just trying to point out that you’re providing evidence against the point you’re trying to make.
My bad. I got some threads mixed up.
Didn’t this exact scenario happen with Kim Jong Un playing golf in North Korea? (I mean, I know that’s their general shtick anyway, but still)
