Here’s a Hollywood ending that President Joe Biden wants to bring to life: an incumbent facing tough polling numbers and questions about his advanced age overcomes a brash opponent to win a second term at the White House.
With strikes by writers and actors now over, Biden is beginning to make that pitch to the Southern California set in person. He and first lady Jill Biden plan to attend six fundraising events and meetings between them this weekend in the Los Angeles area, asking some of the glitziest names in town to open their checkbooks for his reelection campaign.
Some of the events will be public and others private over roughly 36 hours in California. But organizers say Biden should raise more this weekend than in any similar time frame since announcing his campaign in April. He may also potentially take in more than any presidential candidate has in greater Los Angeles this far out from Election Day.
“The pent-up excitement, enthusiasm is really unprecedented,” said Jeffrey Katzenberg, a co-founder of DreamWorks Pictures and longtime Democratic presidential fundraiser in Los Angeles, who is one of the Biden campaign’s national co-chairs. “People are excited. They’re mobilized. And they’ve been waiting months to show their support for him.”
So…
His poll numbers are terrible against the legitimately worst president in American history.
And rather than even attempt to hold some of the campaign promises that got him elected, he’s going to beg for donations from incredibly rich people who are completely out of touch with what real Americans lives are like…
I just want a single option that cares about the American people instead of just chasing donations so they can get elected and not accomplish anything.
If the only positive to Biden is he’s not trump, well, that’s 99.999999999999999% of the worlds population.
So why the fuck is that the bare minimum?
Because lying and gaslighting the public is cheaper than actually doing any of the things he promised. He’s currently allowing the slaughter of Palestinians and the fucking VBNMW shitlibs are still saying ‘most progressive since FDR’
Would you rather we have a president who’s problem is that the genocide isn’t coming here too?
Because that’s what the Palestinians who live here right now hear when you privs try to waffle about why you shouldn’t be judged for letting the fascists win. Honestly even more so with that particular comparison to the president that enacted population displacement on Japanese Americans.
Would it be more progressive if us Palestinian sacrifices on the altar of “but Dems bad” all got a mandatory vacation to heart ridge instead?
I doubt many of them are concerned what someone like Trump might do when the incumbent is letting their families get slaughtered.
Since you dont know, blue is fascist too
Who would do better, and what would they do to make it better?
So you know, whining online about someone not doing what you want them to do, and not offering at least a reasonable solution for conversations sake- takes all the wind out of your pointless rhetoric.
The only solution is not supporting the one thats caused and has escalated the deaths of thousands of other humans
ROFL. How about you come back here later when you understand how this shit works.
Biden has not caused or escalated shit over there.

The only 2 purposes of the ceasefire was to change the Thanksgiving conversations away from Biden’s support of genocide and to replenish Israel with additional arms to slaughter Palestinians,
ROFL! That’s not at all what your link said. My for kid, get your head out of your ass and stop forcing tings to match your agenda.
calling other people children while you type “ROFL” is peak reddit-tier behavior
And accusing someone of “peak Reddit behavior” while offering nothing to the discussion is peak wannabe elitist Lemmy behavior.
He said despite ethnic cleansing going on in Gaza, there’s nothing that Israel could do that they would not have support. He is condoning their ethnic cleansing. He is accelerating it because he will do nothing to stop it
This is YOUR opinion of what he’s doing. He said nothing of the sort. You’re making shit up that aligns with your agenda.
Grow up.
