"When a man unprincipled in private life, desperate in his fortune, bold in his temper, (possessed of considerable talents, having the advantage of military habits), despotic in his ordinary demeanor, known to have scoffed in private at the principles of liberty, when such a man is seen to mount the hobby horse of popularity, to join in the cry of danger to liberty, to take every opportunity of embarrassing the General Government & bringing it under suspicion, to flatter and fall in with all the nonsense of the zealots of the day, It may justly be suspected that his object is to throw things into confusion that he may ‘ride the storm and direct the whirlwind"  - Alexander Hamilton (in a letter to George Washington in 1792)

So did H L Mencken.

"As democracy is perfected, the office of the President represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day, the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be occupied by a downright fool and a complete narcissistic moron."

It really is amazing how, despite how much we know throughout history about how authoritarianism and fascism works, that so many still do not recognize it in it's most naked and obvious form.

Corrupt the people,  corrupt the government. 

You Americans should really read "The Little Red Book" by Mao.

Lol, this thread isn't helping Biden's poll numbers. You guys definitely need some better material. Most modern Democrats think the founding fathers were racist slaveowners, so I wouldn't use one to support your current Democrat president considering the types of people who are his current supporters. Just a suggestion if you don't want to make an already bad situation even worse (hard to imagine, but never underestimate Biden's ability to mess things up more)

I just hope Biden stops supporting Israel.

Then he will win 2024 easily.

Fat chance, most of Biden's supporters are already pissed off he is supporting the mass murder of millions of brown people. Expect it to get much worse heading into the primaries.

Bush also killed millions of brown people but still won elections again.

I am pretty sure we can make some excuse for Biden so he can win 2024.

Right, you also predicted a recession for the last 3 years and DeeSantis would be the nominee.

Not really.

Given that the only other option is Trump, I believe Biden can still win.

Plus, cant Biden simply steal the elections? Like, I believe in democracy and everything, but if Trump wins we are all fucked.

American politics cannot conceive of principal ideas period. Hamilton and Jefferson had two completely different visions of the future of America that showed through every single disagreement they had. Now its all negotiation and interest groups and the parties have minimal differences.

Didn't Hamilton say,  “I’m automatically attracted to beautiful — I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. When you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab ’em by the pu##y. You can do anything.”

At least Trump is not a hypocrite, he shows up as he truly is which is not common among politicians. And I guess this is the reason why people hate him, because he doesn't behave like a real politician who always try to get along with everyone using the hypocrisy.

Great.

The voter's standards are trully non-existent.

They vote for whatever seems cool at the time, no matter how stupid it is.

At least the other politicians are decent enough to hide their dark side and pretend that they are not evil.

Trump is a total hypocrite. He said Hillary should be in jail for mishandling classified material and then he did much worse with classified material and tried to obstruct their return. He also destroyed numerous Presidential documents that didn’t belong to him.

Orangemanbad isn't going to work again during Bidenflation.
That and most of Democrats can't stand Biden for the same reason they can't stand founders like Alexander Hamilton.

Old racist white guys lying while killing off millions of brown people.

I think you should check out what hypocrite means in the dictionary.

And I don't like Trump either but this is what the US and hence the world need right now.

By the way, I've never seen someone so bootlicker like you. Man, it's really desperate.
