Bro wasn’t even “sleepy”, just quietly working. Imagine a president who doesn’t need to be seen or heard from all the damn time.

He didn't have to boast about the most minor shit. A good government is one that just functions, not one that is constantly grabbing your attention.

That's not to say we shouldn't pay attention but there shouldn't be some bombshell announcement daily.

And then a bunch of dip chewing yokel hicks with more toothpicks in their mouth than teeth went in an accent entirely undecipherable to anyone with an IQ out of the negatives:

"What has Biden done for me?"

I know the worst part about the first 4 years of trump was having to hear about every ridiculous thing he said and I really enjoyed the peace my nervous system experienced the last 4 years

It's just absurd to have a president whose #1 goal is being the topic of conversation all day, every day. This isn't how a functioning country runs. Just how a cult does.

Its exhausting and i cant believe a third of the voting population voted for this and a third didn’t care

Part of the problem is that he was TOO quiet. We legit got some of the most important and most progressive legislation of the 21st century passed under Biden. And 99% of people don't even know what bills got passed. I'm not blaming him for Trump winning, but they absolutely failed to capitalize on what should have been a slam dunk election.

That’s precisely why he was able to pass those legislations. He kept his mouth shut and made sure to convince few republicans to vote for his agenda. If he was boasting and ridiculing the other guys like the Cheeto Mussolini does, those few that voted for his legislations would stop cooperating. He got shit that made a positive difference for this country done.

It’s honestly so sad that most people will never know his accomplishments. He had his issues, sure, but he did a handful of great things that were passed bipartisan. That’s what effective leadership is. Improve the country and let me generally ignore the politics of it😂

That honestly kind of hurt him and subsequently Harris. Their administration did an enormous amount of work to improve the country, but they were terrible at publicizing it properly. A lot of people simply had no idea. The Dems have been really bad at pushing their own propaganda.

uh…i mean look i don’t hate joe or anything but towards the end there it was extemely clear that he was not all there all the time. I don’t think he was just “quietly working.” He was definitely being handled, and hidden a bit.

And still everyone could sleep easy at night.

u/sentinel_of_ether 8d ago

Well yeah, thats fair. But you don’t really want to be stuck without clear leadership for too long. History has shown it doesn’t work well. I was pretty worried at that time. There was really nobody to answer to the american people asking “who’s running the country right now?” Not that im saying the current leadership is “good”

u/keyboardnomouse 8d ago

That's why he resigned from running for a second term.

To be replaced by a narcissist who is at least as cognitively damaged as Biden but just shouts his malignity and idiocy loud and proud. If you print any of Trump's "speeches", none of them make sense. At all. But he does deliver his idiocy loudly and proudly, I suppose. That's not a sign that the ole synapses are clicking: "Buy a Tesler!"
