    As someone not from the US… hell yes Old Joe is reliable as fuck. It’s the Congress that’s willing to sabotage US interests to sabotage Biden that’s the problem. And a lot of that stems from Trump.

    A Trump presidency means having a captain steering the ship directly at an iceberg. A Biden Presidency means having a guy that’s almost as old as the sea itself trying to keep the ship going while Trump and his lackeys are drilling holes into the hull.

      Old Joe literally got a court to say that he can’t be charged because he’s a dementing old man.

      3 days ago:

      The special counsel’s report said that it would be difficult to convict the president of improper handling of files because “at trial, Mr Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory”.

      “It would be difficult to convince a jury that they should convict him - by then a former president well into his 80s of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness.”

      Mr Hur’s report also said Mr Biden’s memory seemed to have “significant limitations” during interviews. He could not recall when he was vice-president (from 2009-2017), or “even within several years, when his son Beau died” (2015), the investigation said.
