Comments by "Orwellian Horseman of the Apocalypse" (@DennisMoore664) on "What's Next for Populist Dems After Trump \u0026 Biden? (with Josh Green) | TNL Sunday" video.
The satirical song from 2020 "Biden sucks, vote Biden" which is still on YouTube was spot on about Joe Biden's history. I expected nothing good from Biden as president except he wasn't Trump, but he's happily surprised me and proven me wrong time and again during his first term. Where as I was holding my nose and voting for him in 2020 I'll proudly vote for him in 2024. None the less, we should still be able to be honest about Biden's problems, both from before his time as President and currently being his age, as well as all the amazing things his administration has gotten done over the past few years. Just like in 2020, I'll vote for anyone in 2024 that isn't a Republican, especially in the Presidential race. But that doesn't mean everything about any of the candidates are perfect and awesome, just that the other side is so much worse.

10:32 - Not quite. I don't know about Bob Dole, but Byron York of the National Review referred to Joe Biden as "the senator from MBNA", referencing the close relationship between Biden and MBNA America Bank, N.A and was one of the problem areas I always had with him. Not sure how many people would get that reference today, but back then MBNA was a fairly large bank and credit card company headquartered in Wilmington, Delaware where in 1998, Hunter Biden had risen to the rank of executive vice president. If Joe Biden should be investigated for something it would be his relationship with them and other banks and credit card companies back in the day. But any statute of limitations for any shady quid pro quo activity from back then probably ran out a long time ago.

Politics going back to the founding of the country was always mostly a beard for the landed gentry and other plutocrats and oligarchs. We the people were never really supposed to have much say in what was happening. Remember, Article I, section 3 of the U.S. Constitution, as written by the framers, provided for election of senators by state legislatures - not the voters of the states. The first popular Senate elections weren't held in 1914.
