Biden at peace if he loses to Trump: "As long as I gave it my all"

That's a crazy thing for him to say. The election isn't just his own little personal competition.

You didn't watch his interview?
Watch it, he's completely out of touch with reality and only cares about himself.
Not even "both sides" bullshit. trump would still cause more damage, but Biden is in no way capable of being president.

It's 20 some minutes, just American up and watch it.
There's not much time left to get the DNC to boot him, he's not leaving on his own.
- Wow an old fart falling on the spear of hubris where have I seen that before, oh yeah, RBG.
- We're so fucked. Biden is so fucking selfish and out of fucking touch that he literally going let Trump win.
  If he doesn't get his head out of his ass and Trump wins I hope he pays the consequences him and rest of his family. Because he literally will be handing America over to a fucking shit head fascist fucking all of our families.
- I refuse to watch it. I've checked out at this point. He won't drop out, and he is 100% going to lose the election. I've seen this show before. Spending an hour watching the same fucking story with a different actor is a waste of time. I knew Hillary was going to lose in 2016, and I know Biden is going to lose in 2024. My state is deep blue, so there is no reason I can find to even bring myself to care about this freakshow anymore.
- He might have just had a health emergency, so...
In reality, yeah, but it sounds like he wants to show a bit of maturity to set him apart from his opponent.
- Well, I know you definitely didn't watch the interview....
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8LoAsHz-Mc
  Nothing in there was mature, and he said he wouldnt drop out unless "lord god" told him too. Wouldn't entertain the possibility that some people may think he's too old. Refused to believe he was losing in polls, refused to believe people had called for him to drop out, refused to answer a bunch of questions, or acknowledge there was any chance of him losing....
  But then when he says he really doesn't give a fuck if trump wins after spending 4 years saying trump winning would be the end of America...
  This is an example of him showing maturity and a good thing to you?!
So I guess it's not a big deal if Trump wins? It's not an apocalypse if he wins? This is like advising to make your own coffee while the banks get bailed out. When it comes to people voting, people should vote for Biden even if he can't string a coherent sentence because Trump is the absolute biggest threat to democracy, but when it comes to Biden stepping down, it's okay if he loses to Trump as long as he gives his best.

This isn't the mentality Democrats need right now.

This fucking party lmao

Right? I don't think Biden is able to appreciate the gravitas of this election. Like physically unable.
- I doubt he is able to do much of anything. It feels like watching Weekend at Bernie's.
Eh it's just the end of democracy and well being of Americans. As long as he gave it his all. /Shrug
- Well if he said he'd do what it takes, would that make you feel better? Because you know "his all" is all he has right? And if he gave all of it, should he be ashamed?
This is absolutely a game to the wealthy. They win no matter what.

Well, as me and my family are torn apart and sent to re-education camps at least I'll have the comfort of knowing Joe "gave it his all".

No you fucking didn't.

Giving it your all would preclude doing things that decrease the number of votes you're going to get, such as ending the rent moratorium, refusing to pack the court to protect Roe (because that would make it political lmao), trying to close the border, and facilitating a genocide.

You wanna be able to say you gave it your all? Drone strike the SCOTUS and use every means at your disposal to keep the fascists out of power.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why he should not be the candidate. Not because he’s old or whatever. Because he does not understand that if he loses, we fucking lose democracy. Not a joke; not hyperbole. We get to have Russian-style “elections” for the foreseeable future.

He is so fucking wrapped up in his own ego and hubris that he is going to drive us straight into the fucking wall. He’s so far up his own ass about his ability to compromise that he can’t comprehend that fascist elements of the Republican Party (but I repeat myself) have no intention whatsoever of compromising or negotiating once they really get their hands on the reins of power again.

He is betraying his oath of office. He’s not meaningfully protecting and defending the constitution from threats foreign and domestic, and he hasn’t done so effectively for basically his entire term. As a historical parallel, it’s like a mashup of the US in 1859 and Germany in 1932. It’s baffling, infuriating, and horrifying, in equal measure. His head is demonstrably not in the game - and it seems he doesn’t even understand the game he’s playing (that’s not a “he’s old” quip - I’m talking about the fact that he continues to bring a deck of cards to the shitshow gunfight that is modern American politics and expects to get good results).

Yes. 100% this. Age is just a number. But we need Democrats that will fight for us, for god's sake. Not just shrug at losing because they, personally, gave it their all. Fuuuuuuuck that noise.

Fuck me, he doesn't even care about the real risk Trump poses, not only to the US, but to the world. I don't care if he's done a few good things in his time, Biden's literally going to hand the presidency back to this felonious fucking psychopathic liar.

I swear in 2016 I got blipped into an alternative dimension where eventually everything will be consumed by the langoliers

Edit: The US invented MRNA vaccines, and we get the piece of shit from The Apprentice to hold our nuclear codes, handed the baton by a senile old man asleep at the wheel.

He's going to give it his all, but also he's going to make sure that he gets enough sleep and avoid scheduling events past 8 pm.

Unironically I absolutely believe that pacing yourself properly is the only way to actually "give it your all". Unless you want him to load up on stimulants of questionable legality, but those might actually kill him before election night.
- Yes, the campaigning equivalent of a slow shuffle is realistically what "giving his all" means for Biden at this point. The problem is his insistence that this is also better than what anyone else could possibly do.
- No, I want him to make the biggest sacrifice he can make. Give up his ego and step down.
Also time for napsies in the after noon
Also no meetings before 11 in the morning
- Bernie Sanders is older.
I don't see a problem with this. Your definition of "giving it all" would mean him collapsing at some point. That's not giving it all, if the goal is to serve the American people.
- Dude, if he was a firefighter and said the same thing, what would you're answer be? If there is a fire after 8 pm then you are up fighting the fire. Same with a nurse on call, an air traffic controller, etc. This is a requirement of the most powerful position on earth making decisions that literally impact all of humanity and the fate of western democracy.
  If he can't do it he shouldn't be running. Go be a prof or join a corporate board or something if you want a 9-5 and a stable bed time. The president of the United States needs to be able to operate on very little sleep and past 8 pm because this is the fucking real world...

Joe Biden is on track to win. Anyone else LOSES.
- If he's in the general, I'll vote for Biden's head in a jar if it comes to that, but this is starting to have some real Hillary 2016 vibes about it. There are a whole lot of dipshits out there that think they are more or less the same because they are both old white guys, which is just Peak Stupid, but there you have it.
  I think someone else given the chance, like Gavin Newsom, would build a brand in time for the fall. They'd have to much free press as a consequence of being chosen and if we get someone that is a real GD fighter for Americans they'd do well, IMHO.

- Might be more accurate with the image of Grandpa yelling at the sky for Trump.

Rich people unable to view things outside of the narrow lens of their own self-actualisation.

That's self-interest, not self-actualization. Part of self-actualizing is realizing you aren't the center of the universe.
Joe Biden isn’t rich. upperish middle class, maybe.
- He's either REALLY bad with money or have a lot of it stashed away somewhere.
  An ambitious politician from Pennsylvania doesn't just move to tiny Delaware unless the fact that it's the most corporation-friendly of all the states has something to do with it.
  " If you go out and bundle $250K for me, all legal, and then you call me after I’m elected and say ‘Joe, I’d like to talk to you about something.’ I’m gonna say ‘Come on in.’ It’s human nature.”
  Joe Biden, failing to acknowledge that legal corruption is still corruption.

I wonder if he'll feel that way when he's put on trial on live television and sentenced to death. Or, if that doesn't happen, if he'll feel that way when millions of minorities are killed by trumps brown shirt equivalents or sent to camps to die. Course, he'll probably be dead by the time everything comes to fruition even if he doesn't get sentenced to death cause he's so old.

Yeah but we won’t be.

Goddammit. Way to really inspire confidence and the need to make the future better.

I think there is a double-message here.
It's resetting the spirit of democracy.
Because the other guy, the lunatic one, says "IF I LOSE, THE WHOLE THING WAS RIGGED!!! BLOODBATH!!!"

Remember when they said Joe Biden was too old in 2020? He has a really impressive 3 1/2 year track record compared to the absolute train wreck he followed and both Democrats AND Republicans actually prefer his policies. The orange rapist/felon sucked big time.

Joe Biden was the first us president to cross the picket line

Wonder how many upvotes are from people who don't know that crossing a picket line and joining a picket line aren't the same thing.
While I appreciate his valor at the battle of Gettysburg, I don't think it's relevant.
- It wasn't a good thing...

Maybe they'll put that on his tombstone after President-for-life Trump has him executed as an "Official Act"

Biden being executed: "back in my day a fella could get two nooses for a penny!"
- Just don't ask him what he used them for before the Civil Rights Act.

If he doesn't use his brand new immunity powers to have the military remove his opposition then he hasn't "given it his all".

And you know if Trump gets in power he's going to doing exactly that to his adversaries.

I mean he'll be dead in a few years. The shitstorm may start in 2025 but it will take a few years before it's an issue for him.

Unless Trump has him SealTeam6'ed. You know, with immunity.

We're all going to die because another Boomer won't retire.

I'm glad Biden understands the Severity of what will happen to him and his Family if he Loses!

You didn't give it your all if Fuckface 45 is still fucking alive, Joe.

Fuck you Biden. You narcissistic asshole.

He is making the greatest mistake of his career. What a shame to let pride and greed do this to the legacy he leaves behind

He is making the greatest mistake of his career.
And considering he voted for the Iraq War... oof.

Spoken like a person who will not have to live long under the consequences of that hubris, and whose family wealth will insulate their offspring.

I’m gonna vote for you, Biden, but your personal “peace” is a shitty umbrella the rest of us don’t get to live under.

Does he really think that he is the best candidate or does he intentionally ignore the possibility of someone else having better chances of winning?

To me it sounds like greed and pride affecting his judgement. What a shame to add this to ones legacy

He's mistaking qualifications with electability. To be fair, boomers grew up in a society that was much more of a meritocracy and he's probably confused about what century he's in.

The people who truly govern American will continue doing so no matter who wins the presidency.

Funny how those people run things very differently depending on which party us in power. Almost like the secret cabal you're imagining doesn't actually run everything.
- They let you fight on identity politics, while they keep raking in most of the profits. divide to conquer
  Do you know that many Big money election donors, donate to both parties at the same time ?
  Do you know that in the previous Congressional elections the Democratic party Funded many Republican campaigns ???

Well, if he had a long life ahead of him, he should worry a lot since donnie and his goons will seek to lock him up. This country will not be at peace if Biden fails.

-when Biden fails
- The small solace I have in this universe is that the same worms will eat him

Beware - tolls abound here.

It's fine. I have an EZ Pass
He went from 'Im the one who can beat him', to 'its okay if I lose'. Who's the troll again?
GoodToGo!

Omfg I hate this guy. Die already. Acting like this is some kinda fucking game. Pathetic.

So given this, imo Biden is saying the quiet part out loud.

Maybe it’s just me, but I’m getting a whole: “I’m doing this for you and if you don’t appreciate it I’m just gonna lose and enjoy my money with a trump presidency”

Americans can put Biden in the ballot or else they get the trump again

The rest of us will be thrown into a existential crises but as long a biden is at peace it's all good
