Obama only coming out of retirement to rat fuck people is so funny

I'm still mad he stopped wakeboarding with billionaires just long enough to tell NBA players to quit striking

[-] marxisthayaca@hexbear.net 19 points 4 months ago

All of them screaming that the media is turning on Joe, or that it's some conspiracy...

We are all gonna lose regardless, but at least it's kind of funny

[-] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 61 points 4 months ago

Then why did you ask for it? honk

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 36 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Maybe somebody pointed out his vp pick killing the democratic party ny losing 45 states was not going to reflect very well on his judgement.

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 58 points 4 months ago

Why the fuck does Obama have aides at this point? What do they do, repack his parasail?

[-] eldavi@lemmy.ml 38 points 4 months ago

most rich people have aides.

[-] elpaso@hexbear.net 27 points 4 months ago

He is trying to get the Obama foundation off the ground and build his presidential library.

Like George W Bush's, they are running into commercial real estate shit shows.

[-] Frogmanfromlake@hexbear.net 18 points 4 months ago

That and make sure he remembers to eat his food three times a day

[-] marxisthayaca@hexbear.net 12 points 4 months ago

Hide the bodies and book appointments to create more dead bodies

"If you like your presidency, you can keep it!"

Also those images forced my brain to make that critical damage sound from Elden Ring. Like when you break an enemy's stance or whatever they call it.

Or like in Pokemon, when you hit with an attack strong against the type, it makes that extra hard hitting noise. Pelosi and Schumer being against Biden was 2x effective. But Obama coming out against him is like when my Charizard gets hits with a rock attack... you just gotta lean back, slowly force an exhale, turn off the GameBoy and go to bed. 4x effective. Whew. It's Joever.

[-] eldavi@lemmy.ml 35 points 4 months ago

when progressives call for it, they're just tankies or russian/chinese bot/shills.

when obama calls for it it, it's respected.

whoever says it; it's a good thing.

[-] Black_Mald_Futures@hexbear.net 34 points 4 months ago

Hate to break it to you but progressive isn't a thing, you're either a tankie (cool and good) or a liberal (cringe and facilitating fascism)

[-] eldavi@lemmy.ml 9 points 4 months ago

tomato, tom-ah-to

[-] P1d40n3@hexbear.net 32 points 4 months ago
[-] marxisthayaca@hexbear.net 9 points 4 months ago

Like his brain

[-] Black_Mald_Futures@hexbear.net 27 points 4 months ago

Wow turns out Obama is a Trump supporter??

[-] Barx@hexbear.net 22 points 4 months ago

Okay now it's actually Joever

[-] ThomasMuentzner@hexbear.net 21 points 4 months ago

been a while since some wrecker tried to convince us to vote Biden... i wonder why that is...

[-] carpoftruth@hexbear.net 16 points 4 months ago

Didn't he say he thought Joe should stay in like a week ago?

[-] OperationOgre@hexbear.net 20 points 4 months ago

Excuse me sweaty, we should never judge anyone in the past by today's standards

[-] DerRedMax@hexbear.net 9 points 4 months ago

After all, a wise woman once said, “What can be, unburdened by what has been.”

[-] Egon@hexbear.net 6 points 4 months ago

Yeah he made a whole tweet about it and everything

[-] Cummunism@hexbear.net 11 points 4 months ago

Dems fucked either way. I think at this point they are way past too late and having someone else run will make them definitely lose, as opposed to now where Joe has like a 10% chance of winning at best.

[-] marxisthayaca@hexbear.net 15 points 4 months ago

Dems replacing Joe will now let us accuse them of being undemocratic from top to bottom and point out how incompetent they are. We win either way.

[-] kleeon@hexbear.net 11 points 4 months ago

nah, it should be biden. The primary voters have spoken

[-] Justice@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 4 months ago
[-] kleeon@hexbear.net 7 points 4 months ago

possibly as many as a hundred

[-] FungiDebord@hexbear.net 11 points 4 months ago

I've manifested this inshallah

[-] GeorgeZBush@hexbear.net 8 points 4 months ago

Holy fucking shit the Dems are donezo

[-] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 6 points 4 months ago
