Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) went after former President Trump for his legal woes in an interview on MSNBC Saturday.
“I’ll take the individual who’s 81 over the guy who has 91 felony counts,” Swalwell said, making a reference to President Biden’s age in an interview on MSNBC’s “The Katie Phang Show” on Saturday.
“It’s not about two individuals,” Swalwell continued, speaking about the 2024 election. “It’s about the idea of competence versus chaos, or even greater, freedom versus fascism. If we make it about those ideas, and what they mean in our daily lives, we’re gonna win.”
Swalwell’s comments come after Trump was ordered to pay almost $355 million in penalties in a civil fraud case and amid increased scrutiny faced by the president on his age and memory in the wake of a special counsel report on Biden’s handling of classified documents. The report noted that Biden had problems with memory and recall.
When do you think people will learn that “Our candidate is the second worst choice!” is not a good campaign strategy?
They’ve tried telling people all the accomplishments and good things he’s done, but the media and whiners on the internet only focus on the negative.
Biden’s like a hunk of old, hard cheese with a little mold on it: you can still stomach it if you cut off (ignore) the bad part. Trump is horse shit in the shape of cheese with lots of orange food coloring.
When the baby bombers eventually die off.
I hate to tell you that us Gen-Xers as well as Millennials and Gen-Zers have more than our fair share of assholes in it. I don’t think the Baby Boomers dying off will do as much as you hope they will.
Gen X here. People that were assholes in high school are mostly assholes now.
A few people that I even thought were good in high school became more assholish as they aged.
I’ve watched people drift away from empathy. It’s sad.
how would they learn this? what circumstances could befall them that could overcome “the other side had russian interference”?
They should have learned many, many lessons when Clinton lost.
“The other guy is worse” campaigns don’t mobilize voters, they are vulnerable to divisions within parties, and they are vulnerable to similar third party candidates siphoning off votes.
