Real shit, I listened to Biden’s relatively recent speech in Kenosha, and it was okay. Lots of stuff about mental health reform, drug rehabilitation, and similar criminal justice related stuff I genuinely didn’t expect to hear from him. If his past didn’t make it obvious that he’s lying out his ass, a significant amount of his platform is actually good. I don’t doubt that there are a decent chunk of people taking his word at face value that didn’t care for those “antifa rioters” in the first place.

If trump came out and gave the same speech would everyone just accept it?

He’s had a lot of success saying things people want and then taking credit whether he follows through or not.

I feel like if there were to be a malleable president, it’d be someone like Biden whose brain is essentially clay. Possibly the administration he will be the figurehead of will be swayable.

Obviously they’re still enemies. I’m thinking that it may be more possible to bend a Biden administration toward some sort of reforms via mass organized protests than an explicitly hostile Trump admin. Democrats have to symbolically align themselves with progressive values whereas Republicans have no such baggage. I think it’s potentially exploitable. Maybe not.

I’m thinking more along the lines of what a mass organized protest movement could accomplish. Trump admin would be openly hostile. At least the Dems will have to symbolically align themselves with “progressive” ideals. I’m thinking it’s more possible to bend a Dem administration than a Republican
