So Biden told the Press... What was it, a week ago? That he'd be running for President in 2024. Yet most indications from the administration have been that this would be a single term.

My question, specifically to the Biden supporters of PaRD, do you think it was just a gaff, or was he legitimately serious, and if serious, would you vote for him for a second term?

If Biden publicly admitted at this point that he was not gonna run for reelection, he'd be a lame duck right away. No matter if he intends to run for reelection or not, tactical considerations force him to pretend like he will. Hence, we cannot get meaningful info on his true intentions from his public statements on this issue.

Black is right. Although, I do think it's highly likely Biden runs in 2024.

As of now I'd be happy to vote for Biden again. He's on track to beat COVID, restore the economy, and pass a big infrastructure bill. That's the kind of stuff I voted for.

No offense, but Biden is only marginally contributing to beating covid. The vaccines are doing the heavy lifting in this regard, and the country can thank the Trump admin for having secured enough doses early enough. Looking at the utter failure of the EU, this step was absolutely crucial and not trivial.

indeed at the bolded. remember last year when the “experts” claimed that Trump’s prediction of vaccines being available before year end was ‘impossible’ and would need ‘a miracle’? https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/fact-check-coronavirus-vaccine-could-come-year-trump-says-experts-n1207411

Biden recently claimed there was “no covid-19 vaccine” until his administration started, yet there is video of him getting the first dose of the covid-19 vaccine last year. so wtf was he injecting? guy has no clue on the subject lmao

apparently he is going to “fix” the economy by doing $4T+ in pork barrel spending, paid for by working and middle-class effective tax increases

Am I allowed to crash the party and point out that the Trump Administration bullied the CDC and FDA into approving the vaccines as "experimental" medications without bothering to make that fact clear and plain to the public?

Not saying Biden is any better on that score, merely saying, before we all get on our knees for Trump, perhaps slow down and understand that nobody anywhere knows any potential long term consequences of this vaccine type. It has never been market tested, never had long term tests, nothing. Let's not go overboard here.

if they waited 2 years or w/e to approve one the same whackos crying about this vaccine would complain it took so long and claim it was so they had time to engineer a vaccine that is activated by 5g towers to cause cancer and that its got a microchip in it to track us. there is no appeasing fools.

Apart from school reopenings, I don't really have any complaints about Biden's response to COVID, whereas I had a million when it came to Trump. He's clearly more engaged and responsible than the former guy, and presidents get credit when good things happen on their watch.
