The timing maybe? I’ve been saying Biden is the worst example of a democrat since the Obama days, and got downvoted about pointing out his bullshit. His contribution to the drug war alone is atrocious. But I kept getting down voted for saying it. Suddenly now it’s election time, second go round, and here comes everyone jumping on Biden. Seems sus.
Huh? That’s what I’m saying, Biden is a saint compared to Trump. It’s just sus that right now, at election time 2024 is when it’s suddenly a big deal. It only benefits Trump
Your wording was probably a little confusing, I read “jumping on Biden” initially as in “voting / rooting for him”, but you likely meant it in the context of them “questioning everything he does”. Depending which one is used changes your phrasing from criticizing Biden to supporting him.
Thing is, the absolutely worst things that he’s done throughout his career have been pretty mainstream at the time. Like that omnibus crime bill? That was overwhelmingly supported, with only very, very limited Democratic opposition in very limited areas. (And a lot of black communities still support ‘tough on crime’ approaches because they look at the short term rather than the long.)
Even the support of Israel is pretty middle-of-the-road. Most Dems still support Israel, even while being appalled at the indiscriminate nature of Israel’s violence in Gaza

We have lived under presidencies of both Biden and Trump.
