Joe Biden has launched one of his most scathing attacks yet on Donald Trump’s record of racism, suggesting that the former US president would have acted differently to the January 6 2021 insurrection if was led by Black people.
The remarks, at a dinner hosted by a civil rights organisation in a critical swing state, pointed to an intensifying battle between Biden and Trump for African American voters ahead of November’s presidential election.
“Let me ask you,” Biden said during an address to an NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) dinner in Detroit. “What do you think he would have done on January 6 if Black Americans had stormed the Capitol?”
There was a collective gasp and murmur in the cavernous convention centre, where an estimated 5,000 guests had gathered. The president insisted: “No, I’m serious. What do you think? I can only imagine.”
Liar, liar. I guess you missed when Biden attempted that & was overruled by the GOP fascists in Congress?
Because Congress controls the purse? Slept thru Civics, did we?
BTW, we can all plainly see that you’re pulling out all the “emotional manipulation” stops here, but fortunately, you’re very, very bad at it.
Jesus Christ. The only one that slept through civics and didn’t read their own posts here is you.
Congress didn’t overrule Biden. The house voted for something that hasn’t, and won’t, be able to pass the Senate. Nothing has happened here yet.
Congress controls the purse strings, yes, and the executive branch is responsible for the implementation. Biden absolutely could have told the Israelis to stop at any point, with actual consequences such as removing the fleet from the red sea, promising not to support them against Iran, stop weapons shipments that due to the Lehy law we actually are legally required to stop. All could be done by the executive.
Stop being condescending about topics you apparently know nothing about.
LOL, Reduced to “I know you are, but what am I”? Seriously?
This is the fleet that just got done building the humanitarian aid pier. What a fucking brilliant idea!

By all means, keep up the lies. We are educating people here, whether you like it or not. 🤣🤣🤣
How’s that Pier doing?
