In first speech since leaving office, ex-president spoke of ‘destruction’ current administration has wrought
Joe Biden on Tuesday accused Donald Trump and his billionaire lieutenant, Elon Musk, of taking a “hatchet” to the social security administration as part of their warp-speed effort to tear down the federal government.
…
“In fewer than 100 days, this new administration has done so much damage and so much destruction,” Biden said, addressing the national conference of Advocates, Counselors and Representatives for the Disabled in Chicago. “It’s kind of breathtaking that it could happen that soon.”
Though it is unusual for a former president to return to the national stage so soon after exiting, Biden, 82, said he felt the issue was a matter of grave importance to millions of retirees and disabled Americans fearful that the check they rely on each month might not arrive on time – or at all.
Biden wasn’t going to win in 24, and one of the bigger reasons Harris lost was that Biden held on too long and handed her a fucked up, losing, campaign she had to turn around in 107.
Against an asshole who was retconning history and campaigning for the last 4 years.
It’s a miracle it was as close as it was and that’s 100% on biden’s ego.
He was supposed to be there in order to kick Trump out and then leave, he should have left as soon as that wouldn’t have prevented Harris from trying to get elected twice (so after half a mandate + 1 day)
