he's obviously not totally spineless but we just mean he's not stubborn with policy in the way that someone like bernie is. he's flip flopped his whole career (a major flaw of a public figure tho don't get me wrong). not that he has no drive but that he won't fight for progressive policy and risk his career which is what it might take sometimes. he's shown from what we've seen he doesn't care enough to do that
Lmao bro he flip flops to get his way. Like bro the mans a snake. He’s a f***ing chest player my dude
War on d**** > crime bill > mass incarceration > seizing 35 bill > suppling weapons to police with that money > police brutality on black people
Bro I cannot trust a man that orchestrates plans like that. And Biden was going HARD each step of the way
I do. And in conversations when speaking about overall policy I 100% understand why any lifelong liberal would vote for Biden over Trump. Makes complete sense. Especially after the year Trump has had.
But when it comes exclusively to who’s administration will Black people (specifically imprisoned Black people) benefit from the most, I don’t think either side has a very big hill to really die on. Trump purposely fuels white supremacy throughout the country with his irresponsible rhetoric and Biden is directly responsible for the imprisonment and involuntary labor of millions of Black men for 3 decades now.
They both suck lmao. But which one sucks more?
yeah it's very depressing. i think what i'm trying to say is you might get some good work done by someone in biden's cabinet.. it also depends what value you place on public conversation. that's not as much a big deal for me if i think another politician will effect people's lives positively i'll put up with some questionable s*** (i don't think trump will tho), but for some people, including many in minorities or black people the way trump has effected public discourse has emotionally effected them. i can't belittle their concerns for that, so i get why biden saying things like return to normalcy, is appealing to them
i just think it's sad people think they can't aim higher than 2008-2016
Lowkey more and more every day I wonder if s*** like parliament is a better idea.
Idk if this is how parliament really works but if we could have the Democrats do all the climate change s*** meanwhile Republicans do the business s***, both could work on prison reform.
Idk man maybe s*** would work out smoother here. Or is this not even close to how it works? Lmfaoo
it's different in some countries often depending on how votes are represented. but in the UK most times (weirdly not as much for a lot of this decade), it just makes the government and the party of government way more dominant.
In the US the most direct translation would mean whoever had the house would have the presidency. and the house was way more powerful than the senate, the senate could only overturn the house for limited amounts of time and could only reject a bill a certain number of times, and all the bills would start in the house. the president would probably appear in the house a lot as they'd have to be a member of the house which would be interesting (would have blocked trump from running for example).
it's different in different places but that would be the closest translation i think

oh yeah you can't trust him at all, and he's a snake but i never denied that
but i still get why people will vote for him to block trump
Lmaoooooo feel me?? “But but Trump is xenophobic” man if these niggas don’t get the f*** outta here with they highlighted word dictionaries
Both these niggas is some f*** ups. Stop tryna make one look morally better.
How can niggas read the article you posted and not see the slick ass set up bruh orchestrated.
Played a big role in the war on d**** which raised the crime rate (let’s not forget how they planted d**** and weapons in the hood), then rolled out the crime bill to control the crime rate they started and then enforced the law to where they could take property from “suspected criminals even if not convicted” which lead them to snatching up 35 bill which they turned around and supplied more weapons to police who turn around and kill more black people
Like bruh can you niggas not f***ing see the chest moves?!! See bro I ain’t sheltered so I’m f***ing street smart and see how slick these niggas is
Let’s keep it a buck, in the grand scheme of things watching Trump completely interrupt the 36 year reign of Reagan-Obama D.C corrupt f***s is actually ironically gonna be the window of time we had to take off the drunk goggles and see what the f*** is really going on. Regardless of if they like Trump or not, a lot of people have been seeing the true fabric of D.C politics. These niggas ain’t Republican vs Democrats. They’re government vs civilian.
And I’m not saying Trump isn’t corrupt of course he is. In his prior business practices and in his administration. But bruh, at least he’s the reason f***ing Bill Clinton, THE PRESIDENT OF THE CRIME BILL, isn’t the first lady right now.
Biden is the only way they can ensure the interruption doesn’t last a second longer than 4 years.
Man I can’t dumb it down anymore for niggas, I’m literally mapping out the chest moves Biden has done to f*** with niggas
“Oh crime bill was cus the crime rate was high”
Nigga what you think raised it?! Y’all quick to blame Reagan for that (which you should) but always fail to mention Biden
Funny how Biden wrote the solution to the problem he helped create
And funny how after that he was able to seize up to 35 bill from non-convicted “criminals”
And funny how he flipped that to weapons to give to police
Oh we still confused on why they killing blacks?
oh yeah you can't trust him at all, and he's a snake but i never denied that
but i still get why people will vote for him to block trump
I mean it can go either way. Cus as hard as I’m going on Biden I can go hard on Trump, I just wont find s*** that’s worse.
I just hate when people fully think “Biden is bad but he’s the answer”

a lot of the people in his white house are the same people, a lot of the policy outcomes are what republicans have always done tho.
idk how much of an interruption he is of Reagan/thatcher approach really. and that's coming from someone who wants that for politics so much. some trump supporters i've spoken to are disappointed in him. they weren't with a lot of what he did in his campaign but were hoping his pitch as a break with the consensus of the last 4 decades was a real one. domestically/economically they now feel like it hasn't been. idk if they'll support him regardless at the election or not tho

biden isn't the answer, he can barely answer any question at this rate
people would just rather have a democratic white house and somebody less corrosive on public debate (i think a lot of that's window dressing but it emotionally effects a lot of people), there's a lot of reasons for that some good some bad. ultimately i think you've got a better chance with a dem white house than a republican one. but you're right to call out biden. i think it's important people do that after the election if he wins, but man they're more than just a list of scandals. consider what that white house will look like, the cabinet, the likely policy outcomes, who might get a platform/say etc. don't just focus on them as men

The truth people don’t wanna see. You know it’s bad when you challenge people to point out ONE policy that’s worse than the crime bill, just ONE that Trump has enforced and nobody can.
It’s always “bRO cRiME biLL wAS 94 iTs 2020”
Or “bUT tRumP iS a xEnopHoBiC aNd hAtes iMmiGraNTs”
It’s like bro nobodies denying that Trump is a piece of s***. But based off actions and the affects on people, who has done worse?
It ain’t no coon s*** for pointing out the truth. I seen that slick ass comment that lame Nigga said to you

100%...I just want the conversation to be equal with everyone. I can understand why people may think “this trump s*** ain’t working let’s roll the dice with Biden and see if he’s changed” but niggas gotta also understand “that Biden s*** never worked I’d much rather deal with Trump cus he hasn’t done anything worse than Biden”
Man I can’t dumb it down anymore for niggas, I’m literally mapping out the chest moves Biden has done to f*** with niggas

This is the literal story of slavery lmao
We really expected the same exact government that oversaw our enslavement to oversee our “freedom” lmao yea ok.
This is what they did to Virginia freed slaves ONE MONTH after the 13th amendment passed.
encyclopediavirginia.org/Vagrancy_Act_of_1866#start_entry
We never been free. Freedom is an illusion. I am privileged to be an immigrant with determined parents who fought hard to not fall into the temptations that corruptness in Colombia has.
Corruptness is nothing but a trap door for people (that happen to be mostly Black men) to become slaves to the state. That is it.
I’m a coon for saying that whichever candidate will enact the better prison reform should win👍🏽
yeh both trump and biden need to go so does kanye
society doesn’t need leaders that only listen to their friends that’s how establishment keeps to f*** everyone. you think trump did that favour out of good will?
as i’ve said, it’s good he did it but it shows the kinda pay for play corruption at hand. the group that were already working on alice johnson did the legwork anyway lad

As someone who had high hopes for Trump in 2018 (what I think is his best year) he has severely let me down. So no your coming from an accurate place.
And while that is true, Trump the actual president is still a pretty rogue character. Not saying he’s not allowing the f***ery to keep going, but I think he’s doing it only if he personally benefits from it. Obviously there’s business interests he’s meeting but I think most of those probably impact his personal businesses as well. Whereas if Hillary won we’d be using tax dollars to appease to the interests of who knows how many people😳

It’s absolute pay and play corruption and I despise it. We don’t disagree on this.
Either way Trump and Biden are on the ballot, so you gotta choose someone.
And if you say you don’t have to vote, of course not, but then the rest of the country decides for you

And yes I never mean to discredit Cut50 or any other incredible organization doing the actual work.
President Trump still signed that pardon tho.

of course but if you put a self serving billionaire at the top of government, he's gonna serve interests aligned with those that a big money-backed dem would have done
and yeah he is that rogue character (that's what i think ye's praised in him), but i also feel that if those same systems are in place that doesn't make all that difference :( obama being black was a big break from past presidents people are still stuck with the same systems. plus the emotional cost of having someone spouting hatred and using white supremacist dog whistles, has been hurtful to a lot of people. and that's the cost of him being that rogue character. i think it's tiring and frustrating, i'd rather stop the semantics and see real systemic change rather than communication or presentational differences.

people around trump also spoke about those pardons being a chance to reach out to potential voters (anything in politics is but if he gets to chip away a little in key areas on dem black support that could actually flip a close swing state).
those pardons matter a lot as they impact real people's lives but it's important to remember that president's can also use them as a way to distract from all the other s*** they're rolling out or let happen. it's like as a token of acknowledgement we'll do this one thing as long as we don't have to actually really change something for the long term

This right here is the problem with Trump, unfortunately.

This is facts.
I wanna put it on record very clearly that I do not think Trump is the “great White hope” Jessee Lee Peterson calls him😂
But I do give him credit where credit is due with prison reform. That is it. I really do not like him as a president at all.
I think he has the right idea in terms of foreign policy, but COVID has been a f***ing botch and that’s somewhat foreign policy related.
This right here is the problem with Trump, unfortunately.
that's the same as any politician dealing with those considerations, i just think if it flipped a state for him then it's low cost, as much as it's a good thing it happened
hillary crushed among the black voters who voted, but lots of Obama's black voters stayed at home. there's some figures that have shown that helped trump in specific swing states, where that staying at home contingent helped get trump win. if trump and his people can chip away at that anymore they will definitely try

I think Biden is doing a pretty good job at chipping away Black voters himself too lol.
Obviously Biden will receive more Black votes overall, but quote me on this, more Black Americans will vote for Trump this year than they did in 2016.

yeah you still have to give credit for a good action despite questioning it's motives otherwise you just shilling for the other side.
foreign policy is always tough for me. so often i feel like a genuinely moral foreign policy would be so hard to get mainstream public support for. trump said some surprisingly good things on foreign policy during his time among all the bullshit but he has been pretty all over the place throughout his presidency on a lot of issues

lmfao fr, biden thought it had the pass from being obama's guy. white candidates, use your common sense and never tell black people they ain't black enough
yeah that's probably true, and in a state decided in the thousands that can make a difference. doesn't help having such an uninspiring candidate. trump inspires his base, where's the energy around biden?
biden reminds me of a candidate we had, theresa may. 'shes so popular, she's the most popular pm in a decade or more etc.' Then when it came to the campaign she turned something like a 24 point lead into a few points to the extent nobody secured a majority also in the UK our campaigns can sometimes last a few weeks, Biden got months to destory himself. just like him she was so out of touch, full of s***, gaff-prone and her own worst enemy
