What are the nature of your conversations with the Israelis right now? Have you spoken with Bibi?

Biden: I have not spoken with Bibi since—I have not spoken with Bibi since the attack on Sunday. Was it Sunday?

Ben LaBolt: Yep. Sunday.

Biden: I have not. My team has.

But has he crossed your red line?

Biden: I’m not going to respond to that because I’m about to make a…anyway.

Absolutely normal for the transcription of an interview with the President conducted inside the Oval Office to have the word “unintelligible” in it three times

Hamas was calling for a ceasefire in October. In November, the Brandon Regime invented the term “humanitarian pause” because they would not even says the word ceasefire.

It is so absurd that Biden says that Hamas doesn’t want a ceasefire when he wouldn’t even say that word ceasefire for several months after Israel began bombing Gaza.

brain status: cooked

Biden: It would depend on the circumstances. You know, by the way, I’ve made clear to Xi Jinping that we agree with—we signed on to previous presidents going way back—to the policy of, that, it is we are not seeking independence for Taiwan nor will we in fact, not defend Taiwan if they if, if China unilaterally tries to change the status. And so we’re continuing to supply capacity. And, and we’ve been in consultation with our allies in the region.

The funniest part is Biden threatening the interviewer:

Could you really do this job as an 85-year old man?

Biden: I can do it better than anybody you know. You’re looking at me, I can take you too.

so in searching this interview i didnt see any mention of the fact that a lot of it is pretty incoherent. I see a lot of editorializing to get the general thrust of what he was saying but nobody commenting on the content at face value.

I have that exact quote here. And they no longer lead the world and the transatlantic alliance has to be reexamined. And the interesting piece of that is you now have his former adviser John Bolton saying, he’s certain that the first thing Trump would do if he got reelected is get out of NATO completely.

Please. Oh please. Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

I have never wanted anything more than for this to happen. I don’t believe it will happen but oh my fucking god it would be so fucking good for us and the entire world.

LOOOOOOOOOOL look at this fact check bullshit:

https://time.com/6985020/joe-biden-fact-check-2024-interview/

What Biden Said: “The Russian military has been decimated. You don’t write about that. It’s been freaking decimated.”

The Facts: This is a fair assessment, according to a Reuters report on a declassified U.S. intelligence assessment provided to Congress. The intelligence determined that Russia had 360,000 active military personnel when it invaded Ukraine in February of 2022. By December of last year, 315,000 Russian troops had been either killed or injured in the war—a reduction in troop strength by 87%.

Absolute fucking bollocks, they are out of their fucking minds. The Russian army does not only have 55,000 troops remaining. You are fucking idiots Time.

But on that last point, is there a danger that NATO is on a slippery slope to war with Ukraine—with Russia, as things stand?

Biden: No, we’re on a slippery slope for war if we don’t do something about Ukraine. It’s just not gonna…anyway…

This is Biden stopping himself from letting slip that Ukraine is not gonna end well. He thinks the US is gonna be dragged into it. He’s all but saying that the situation is not gonna be won without that happening.

And whose fault is it that the that deal, the ceasefire for hostages has not been consummated? Is it Hamas or Israel or both?

Biden: Hamas. Hamas could end this tomorrow. Hamas could say (unintelligible) and done period.

This whole thing is just… I don’t even know lmao

deleted by creator

Biden: No, it’s not. And by the way, I don’t know why you skip over all that’s happened in the meantime. The Russian military has been decimated. You don’t write about that. It’s been freaking decimated. Number one.

Folks, they’re calling him Joseph Redditor Biden

Fun idea: Create a webpage that has a copy of a reddit thread and sprinkle in a bunch of quotes from American politicians and see if people can spot the difference.

Biden: To finish what I started in the first term. To continue to make sure that the European continent—I’ll tell you, I got a call from Kissinger about 10 days before he died. And he used the following comment. He said that not since Napoleon has Europe not looked over their shoulder at dread with what Europe—what Russia may do, until now. Until now, you can’t let that change.

ok

There are going to be a billion people in Africa in the next several years. We have to, we have to be a catalyst for change for the benefit, for the, for the better, we have to help them build back better, we have to help them.

how strong China is and how powerful they are. Name me—Would you trade places with Xi Jinping and any other country? Not a joke? I’m being deadly earnest, a rhetorical question. But would you? You’ve got a population that’s considerably older than the vast majority of the youth in Europe, that is too old to work. And they are xenophobic. Where is it coming from? Where is it going to grow? You’ve got an economy that’s on the brink there. The idea that their economy is booming? Give me a break.

:cope: (especially “too old to work” lmao, I think any Chinese gramp could be your ass, Joe)

I do have one last on China, which is are they meddling in the election? Have you seen evidence that they’re meddling with AI or in other ways in the US election?

Biden: There, there, there, there is evidence that meddling is going on

and yet the Xi-Bux are arriving in my bank account late, as usual…

The Belt and Road initiative? It’s become a nuisance graveyard initiative. I’m serious. Think about it. I’ve been saying this for three years, and you guys write, “No, China’s on the right—China’s gonna break through.” Where are they, where are they breaking through? And look what’s happening in Africa.

double China :cope:

This shit has so many trump like quotes that I honest to God believe he was told to speak like him to get the “he just tells it like it is!!!” Crowd lmao

[Putin] has just laid out, straight out. He said, he said, ‘I would like to emphasize again, Ukraine is not a neighboring country of us. It is an inalienable part of our own history, culture and spiritual space…Since time immemorial, the people living in the south-west of what has historically been Russia, Russian land have called themselves Russians and Orthodox Christians.’ And he goes on. He makes this whole speech about why it is part of reestablishing the Soviet Union.

honestly torn on whether the lump of pudding in his skull actually believes this bullshit or just thinks the cable-news-watching dessicated boomers that vote in this country will believe it

He repeats both “Chinese economy is on the brink of collapse” and that they’re meddling in the election. Neoliberal really is a good reflection of what the upper echelons of Washington think, save for a few level-headed people like Millie.
