  1. I’m sure the right wing is going to hold this against him.

    They’ll find a way.

  2. I remember a day when Republicans would not stand for anti-service remarks like the ones Trump has made.

    Whoops, let me backtrack: I remember a time when they *said* they wouldn’t stand for that.

    Now they don’t bother even lying about it.

  3. I hope President Biden tells that story often about Trump refusing to go to the WW1 cemetery in Paris. Maybe some of his cultists will hear it and understand how horrible he is at last.

    As I recall, it was cold and rainy that day. Trump was probably worried about his makeup and hair.

  4. It’s shameful. Trump supports can no longer call themselves patriots if they can’t support our troops no matter their political fathers.

  6. Biden is a good man. Trump is a vile, corrupt scumbag.

  7. Joe Biden sent his own son and the sons of many others to the war that would claim their lives when he voted in favour of the war in Iraq. All to steal oil out from under the feet of the people in the region.

    To this day he keeps signing off on weapons which are exterminating children in Gaza. Thousands have been killed deliberately by the IDF. Thousands more have been maimed. Some have had their limbs amputated without anesthetic since all the hospitals in the region have been bombed. Children were literally dying of fear as they were having heart attacks out of shock during the bombing runs. Unimaginable trauma and devastation wrought on innocents and all with the full knowledge and complicity of this man.

    Joe Biden is a monstrous war criminal. His crocodile tears should mean nothing to anyone with any trace of common sense or humanity left in them.

  8. Can’t understand why anyone in the military doesn’t understand Trump’s abject disdain for them except as disposable peons to die for his wanton cowardly ass. My military family cannot stand him.

  9. It was 2009. About 3am in Shannon Ireland. Biden was the VP then. He took time to shake every soldier’s hand, speak with us, and take photos with us if we wanted them. He thanked us for what we were headed out to do. 14 month tour to Afghanistan. It’s one of my most prized photos from my time in. He didn’t have to greet 150 of us like that individually. But he did.

  10. That’s my President. Proud to vote for this guy again in November.

  11. Dude, I caught this blurb on fix news, Biden is a creepy pedo and kids just love trump. It was gross. Where tf did this shit about biden come from?

  12. Biden’s compassion & concern for his country are blatantly evident. This is a man who has been committed to public service his whole life. I don’t believe he’s gotten everything right, but I do believe he has the experience & temperament to lead this country. People who mindlessly believe that Trump gives two shits for them are both embarrassing & maddening!

  13. As a member of a foreign military, it blows my mind that any US service member would vote for him.

  14. If I have to trust a man to do the right thing for the nation, I would 100% back Biden. Trump, 0%.

  15. I feel really bad for him, no one should have to bury their child, but if trump lost his kid then Reddit would not sympathize with him and probably barrage him with insults

  17. Trump will be deep ugly scar on American history that will only get worse with time as more is likely revealed after his death.

  19. At this point I wouldn’t be surprised he he took a medication to make him more likely to cry. An for the record I hate Trump.

  21. During the 2012 Vice Presidential Debate, Paul Ryan makes a comment thanking Bo for his service and Biden thanks him in turn…in the middle of the debate. Watched it last night in 2024 and that exchange had me thinking about how the political discourse has gotten so ugly since 2012.

    Also made me realize that Biden is still the same person. The GOP are the ones that have gotten nastier.

  22. If former President Trump is one choice on the presidential ballot, I will always choose the other option, regardless of who it is.

    But I have to admit that I often see real humanity in President Biden, which makes that vote for him just a little easier.
