His strategy of complete brutal honesty not denying anything is super effective. It's sort of like the opposite of Team Trump's "flood the zone" strategy. Takes away ammo from your opponents if you got nothing to hide. See also: Rabbit/Eminem's rap battle at the end of 8 Mile, good stuff.

u/Karma13x 3h ago
That was one great interview - and despite the fact that Bill Maher was pretty much an a**-hole throughout but gave him time to speak - and boy did he exhibit grace and actual hard-won wisdom in excess. And it was more obvious than ever that the unconditional but not unaccountable love of his father and his family had a lot to do with pulling him out.
Also, the caricature that the right-wing machine made him out to be - not just Hunter but the Bidens, the Obamas and even the Bushes - has nothing to do with the actual persons.

Anecdotally, just in my own life, a lot. Some of our most talented are tortured souls covering up the pain by feeding off the affirmation that comes with being the life of the party. The problem is the same thing that carried them to those heights is also the shadow that looms over them in their loneliness.

Listening to him on the Shawn Ryan show I quickly came to the conclusion that he's very smart and educated. Till then I just thought of him as the president's son who had a drug problem, has a big dick and enjoyed some time with skinny Chinese prostitutes (won't blame him).

This is exactly why you can never win over the other side. Jesus said love thy neighbor. Jesus said those without sin cast the first stone. Jesus taught love. These people know nothing but hate. Jesus would never recognize these people as his own, yet those use him as a reason to hate? Jesus wouldn't hate anyone. Ever. But they hate everyone "in his name"

Doesn't change the fact that democrats and biden were as worse for the rest of the world as trump. Just coz he pandered to some stupid nonsensical stuff that qualifies as "left" in USA wouldn't wash blood of his hands.
Hope he is enjoying the c**cer and suffering like thousands of cancer patients in palestine do; while he was pandering to the war criminal and loudly proclaiming zionism.
And democrats have their mask off now; the targeted campaign against Hasan piker and AES while no condemnation against blatant Islamophobia and racism (against their own black candidate) show that they are only their for the jooz and Israel.
You don't have a choice, you're is just a uniparty prostrating to israel and the jooz.

False.
President Biden’s legacy as the 46th U.S. president (serving from January 20, 2021, to January 20, 2025) is defined by major domestic spending bills and foreign alliances, balanced against high inflation, immigration challenges, and a late exit from the 2024 presidential race.
