Parody Joe Biden site getting more traffic than official campaign site

Ouch that is not a good look.

Who fucked up on missing joebiden.info
 
Web site looks to be put on not by a conservative either based upon the issues that are being brought up as negatives. Somebody is playing dirty pool in the democratic primary. :eek::eek::eek::bowrofl::bowrofl:
 
Wrangor, who would you vote for between Trump and Biden?
 
Biden, as long as he didn't run on tanking the economy with medicare for all or something like that. If he runs a balanced moderate campaign, I vote Biden. If any of the other candidates run I vote 3rd party or in the case of Bernie, I vote Trump. Trump is actually less dangerous to me than a Bernie, Warren, or Harris. There are very few Democrats running I could vote for, Biden is one of them. I kind of like Schulz platform as a fiscal conservative, social liberal / libertarian but he is way out of step with the current Democratic Party. He would be more third party abstain vote if I needed one. Andrew Yang has some original thoughts, but don't know enough about him (and he doesn't have a prayer). Buttigieg is just too young. a 37 year old small town mayer, no matter how smart, doesn't need to be leader of the free world. I do think Pete is a smart dude, and I like that he is in politics, but I would rather him run as a 50 year old than as a 37 year old. I think he and Beto are vying for the VP pick.

Dangerous to you? I see you still firmly latch onto the fear like a good conservative
 
Better to stick with the incompetence, corruption and debasement of the office and country that you know I guess.

Indeed. So, basically, one of our board non-Trump supporting conservatives will still vote for Trump unless Biden is the Dem candidate, and only if Biden, by his criteria, runs a "moderate balanced campaign", which sounds an awfully lot like Republican Lite. Nearly all other Democrats are unsuitable for various reasons, and "far left" consists of supporting universal healthcare and other "budget busting" positions, even though Trump has ballooned the deficit with tax cuts and the GOP's claim to be the party of fiscal responsibility has been repeatedly proven to be a joke since the days of Ronnie Reagan. Trump is "less dangerous" than 75%-plus of the current Democrats running. Oh, and he might vote third party again. But these are the voters that the news media is saying that Dems need to win over. Right.

Could be, but hating the metoo movement wouldn't stop Republicans from using it against Biden.

Surprise. I’m a conservative voter. Trump isn’t all that conservative but policy wise he certainly has governed more conservatively than the ever moving left wing of the Democratic Party. If a republican wins in 2020 you are also looking more than likely at another Supreme Court nominee if the republicans hold the senate. That wouldn’t hurt my feelings a bit.

I think that democrats have gotten so used to demonizing the right that it is almost impossible to believe that some people really don’t like socialists. The heartbeat of the Democratic Party beats socialist. AOC and Bernie are the thought leaders and they are legitimately dangerous to our democracy. And I am not using socialist like a curse word. I just abhor the ideology. I will vote against it every time because it destroys the core nature of our America. Productivity and success.

I have no false notions that we have socialist parts of our society and I am not an Ann Rand disciple but Capitalism wins, every time. It is far easier to rein in overreaching capitalism than socialism. Once people start getting free stuff they never give it back.

A guy like Biden is a moderate leader even though left of my personal preference. But he could make a fine president and despite his downright creepiness I think he is a stand up dude who wants to make the US a better place.

Agree. I think the democratic race comes down to Bernie or Biden and I can guarantee you that trump supporters are dying for a matchup vs. Bernie. Trump will win that election. He loses to Biden.
 
How far towards fascism are you willing to let the country slide to prevent Medicare being available to people under 65?
 
Fascinating.




And utterly tragic what has become of Republicans and “conservatism”.
 
I know some people say Wrangor’s politics have always been garbage but I don’t remember him parroting conservative media like this.

How is Medicare for All more socialist than just plain ol Medicare? I wish Republicans would just be honest and say they want to get rid of Medicare instead of lying because they know core conservatism is unpopular.
 
Wrangor, as a Christian, how would you justify a vote for trump over sanders? Are you strictly policy over person at this point?

And, how are warren or Harris more dangerous than trump to you personally? Shed some light on that one for me.

Have you personally benefitted from a trump presidency, as a farm owner? Curious to your thoughts on this, and how you’d justify a vote for him over Bernie or warren or Harris.

I appreciate your point of view on this thread. Seriously. You’re a smart guy and a Deac.

I would argue with you that unregulated, laissez-faire capitalism has done at least as much damage to the US since the Gilded Age as "socialism", which is why we have had reform periods in American history where socialist-type reforms were implemented that have vastly benefited large numbers of people, including, ironically, most Trump supporters. Social Security is one, so is the FDA, so is Medicare and Medicaid, so are public schools (free for everyone), so is unemployment insurance, graduated income taxes, and so on. Regulated capitalism works fine, the problem with the GOP is that they don't want regulated capitalism, they are hell-bent on dragging us backward to the laissez-faire capitalism of the Gilded Age, which did not benefit most Americans, and will cause great harm to most Americans now. And I find it hard to believe that any Democrat now running is a greater threat to democracy than Donald Trump. Trump is the antithesis of what a POTUS should be, and he most certainly does not represent large numbers of Americans, nor does he have their best interests in mind. His administration is a cesspool of corruption and incompetence, and he has definite authoritarian tendencies, among other massive faults.

100% this.

As a former conservative Republican, I am much more concerned with our country sliding into irreversible authoritarianism than a few progressive policies. Hell we are are already farther down that slide than anyone wants to admit.
