I agree with all that bots. |

Early indications are that his support base is fractured anyway; there are still the fanatics who believe in him to somehow come back and fix everything, but there are many (even the hardcore) who feel let down/lied to (they really believed there was a plan to stop the transition) and they are already looking for the next guy to throw their support behind. |

You only had to look at the handful of people that turned up to see him off yesterday. Most of the 'crowd' was family :laugh: |

Because of course they can only serve 2 terms. I do agree his support in the Party is drifting away pretty fast. Which is why I think finding the means to stop him standing again, will more likely be what's worked to. I also agree with your reply to bots too.which is really another strong reason for the Republican Party, to shall I say, at least not block ways to prevent him being a candidate again. |

It was really good this morning putting the news channels on.
Then hearing the words President Biden. Then the things he's already started to change. After the harder, colder and in my view often bonkers statements and actions of the last one term President. This was like a breath of fresh air. |

On the back of a right wing suicide bombing, attempted kidnappings, murder, and an insurrectionist plot, I'm not entirely sure a few people smashing up a few buildings is much of a story these days, but yes, it's the wrong way to protest. |
And also, there were way more police and military actually involved in the coup attempt, than protested last night.

anyhoo it looks like just another role reversal on TiBB 4 years of oh he is great, shot down by Trump supporters, good luck :laugh: |

I mean, this is the first full day of his presidency, and he's already put an executive order in place to ensure masks and social distancing are worn/adhered on federal land/buildings, which is already more than we have, I think it's a bit premature to call it a role reversal, when I was critical of Obama, and no one on here has been more critical of Starmer than me. There no doubt will be things happening over bidens term that he will be defended for, that trump would have been criticised for, but it's a bit of a reach to say we're there already. What I think will be different, is that folks won't pretend to be biden supporters because grown adults think it's a good way to try and troll and wind people up on a forum. |
biden can only do so much with executive orders and such. It could be he has the best of intentions, but he will fair no better than Trump dealing with the covid crisis. Brick walls are everywhere. Time will tell
Extremists of any form don't disappear with a new government, so I don't get why its even being suggested that it it would all change on the day of inauguration :laugh: |
Biden wasn't my first choice (or my second, or third, or fourth for that matter) for the nomination, but he'll do enough to right the boat.
I do think the US will see an improvement in the Covid situation though since Biden will be likely to push for federal involvement in mandating measures to keep infections down. Too many states and their senators and governers see Covid as a political battleground, Biden will hopefully force some unified measures across the US into place. |
...he’s the calm voice that America needs atm, I feel...words carry great weight and they carry power to heal or to divide...and his words yesterday were the right words at the right time...there’s no reason not to feel that his actions won’t continue in the same vein of unifying his country...

He can try and streamline production of vaccine and distribution to states, but thats all, and the states themselves are all handling things completely differently |
Yeah, I'm willing to be suckered by that speech for now. I need something on the world stage to feel good about. You can't say it was the usual case of a newly elected official saying all the right things either, because roughly half the country will take it as an attack regardless.
I'm convinced the MAGA mindset is to just roleplay America Hero at all costs, and that requires conflict. Be it real or simulated. It was - frankly - brilliant hearing the American president openly denounce white supremacy and false facts. The olive branch to those who voted against him is at once sincere and also brilliant potential trolling should those it's directed to take it that way. I hope it continues for however long he stays in office. It's almost like America's version of "I want the old Stone Cold!" You know they're going to continue to be a complete bastard, but it's the devil you know. |
