Biden is just another arrogant, out of touch, privileged elite with no understanding of what the majority of Americans experience day to day.
His hubris was on full display in Friday’s interview, the stakes are clearly not the same for him. He has enough wealth and power to weather this fascist storm, unfortunately most of us do not.
Worst case scenario Biden has the resources/connections to evacuate to somewhere safe and luxurious. The rest of us are stuck dealing with christofascist militias. The wealthy will continue living in opulence.
Bro, a 25 year old who happened to get a job in tech 5 years ago is a millionaire. Baseline retirement savings is a couple million. Pretty much any upper-middle-class professional career (doctor, lawyer, finance) is going to net you a few million within several years.
It’s not the thing you think it is. The truly wealthy are pulling in 1,000x to 100,000x that number.
He really isn’t wealthy, did grow up in a working-class environment, and certainly is not a trust-fund baby, billionaire, or media celebrity. Kind of hilarious assertion considering the competition.
What candidate would you like to see replace Biden?
(weird how 15-20 upvotes is the baseline for these kind of comments.)
I don’t think you understand how money works. You literally just described a trust fund baby because nobody is making a couple million dollars just because they got an advanced degree. Doctors that make the big bucks have to go through 12 years of schooling. And then they’re paying that back for a decade before they get to enjoy their income. So yeah at the age of 40, assuming they were successful in their residency, assuming they got a good hospital job, then they get to spend another 5-10 years saving for retirement.
You can’t just look at the high end of a career and assume you walk into that kind of money. That’s not how it works unless you have the high level connections a trust fund baby would have.

If Trump gets elected, I’m pretty sure Biden’s going to get a kangaroo court trial on some garbage charge and be sent to prison.

Why don’t you just evacuate somewhere safe too, then?
“have you tried not being poor?”
Exactly.
It’s not hard.
I honestly don’t think Trump gives a shit about Biden. The Obamas on the other hand…
