Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

ok, I gotta admit, I did miss jibberish like this.
Biden's gibberish was weird and sad. Trump's is weird and childish/magical.
Amazing how both the SU's and the USA's terminal gerontocracies mimic their collapse.
The SU had people in their 60s and early 70s, worn down early from decades of constant struggle and siege, falling apart from exhaustion.
The USA has increasingly senile racist misogynynistic members of the ruling class. Pushing out sentences increasingly disconnected with reality as their ideology slips away from material conditions. Lashing out internationally randomly to maintain control. And increasingly domestically as the sphere of action shrinks.
The SU had successive heart attacks. The USA is sundowning.
Here's how Bernie can still win
And by her I mean AOC

Obama was Gorbachev (at least superficially, not implying Obama actually did anything but people sure do think he did).
Honestly, I think that's Trump. With the caveat that he's been brought in to crack the whole thing open in a way that will certainly fail. And the attempts at unjamming the situation will crack it open in a far more serious way.
The other answer is Bill Clinton.
I think "Ooh Earth Rider" has some magic to it
