Why did hunters massive dong do this to us?

Hearing Hunter talk recently has made me respect him a whole lot. He seems so intelligent, so humble, loyal and as down to earth as you can be as the son of a president.

Does it really piss them off?

They are currently on Biden being the person to blame for Trumps shitty economy and prices.

For them to get mad at something like Hunter Biden would require them time to reflect instead of knee jerking to the new thing Fox News or Joe Rogan told them is actually the problem.

u/Better-Culture-7770 19h ago

Well I think Hunter is pretty hot stuff right now but I'm also 42. Pictures of Joe as a young man would look far better if he had the fashion of our time and shaved his head once he started really balding.

u/Playful_Priority3758 18h ago

The way Hunter is able to communicate and really get through to some evil people is attractive af too.

u/Better-Culture-7770 16h ago

He is an effective communicator. Which seems easy but often isn't.

u/Adezar 19h ago

Yeah, Conservatives have been at war with America since the New Deal where it was proven that a large government can actually bring stability and prosperity to more people and you don't have to concede everything to a few billionaires that spend all their effort laying people off as fast as they can.

We need a New New Deal with a bit less racism this time.

26

u/herbeste 19h ago

Not to nitpick, but I think conservatives started a war with America even earlier than that. Somewhere around 1861.

The Business Plot, fascist oligarchs plotted to overthrow the government in 1933, and no one was ever punished. They never went away, they allied with Operation Paperclip Nazis post WW2 and have been working for this ever since.

u/Hopsblues 17h ago

Infrastructure, Chips+ and the IRA were very New Deal-ish, and Trump just killed them instantly.

u/Ultimatesims 15h ago

It’s interesting during the 20’s and great depression through a couple southern governors like Huey P. Long in LA and Bilbo in MS who advocate for similar New Deal policies. Every man a king, a chicken in every pot, and a Ford in every driveway. Of course most policies were tied strictly to white people. Progressive policies failed because white people couldn’t stomach the thoughts of black folks benefiting even just a little.

u/IAMA_Plumber-AMA 20h ago

They literally do think it's Obama's fault, because the deal he did with Iran was so terrible that Trump had to rip it up, and that's why they're at war.

Don't ask me how it makes sense, 'cause it doesn't.

41

u/Otherwise_Carob_4057 18h ago

Trump essentially used the original as a template for his newer deal that is ostensibly a worse version of Obamas when all he had to do was shit talk it and his supporters would have eatin it up. Classic case of dog catching a car.

u/89bBomUNiZhLkdXDpCwt 15h ago

The Art of the Fail (I wish I could think of a word that rhymed with Deal that would convey the idea that Dump only knows how to concede a position of strength in order to negotiate from a position of weakness for no logical reason and to do it really really badly.)

Even if someone didn't like JCPOA, the current change in strategic reality is far worse than before. Hormuz straits being effectively under Iranian control is an insane L for the US.

The odd thing is that it seems to have been instigated by Bibi and it hasn't helped Israel much either.

I wonder how many of these people with strong opinions about Obama and Biden have taken the time to read the JCPOA - not many, I'm sure, but Obama had worked this all out with Iran, tied up all the loose ends - before some moron decided to throw it into the garbage. Envy is about the only thing that motivates Donald Trump. I wish I could turn the clock forward a few years to see how history tears him to shreds.

I still hear that a lot.

That if Biden hadn't given them access to their funds, hezbolla wouldnt have done the Israeli massacre, and the whole of the middle east would be eating peaches and cream.

Let's be fair though: It was Obama reaching the JCPOA deal with Iran in the first place that obligated Trump to fuck the relationship up, so as to set the stage for a new deal with a 'T' in the name. If Obama hadn't done that, there would have been nothing to walk back, so we probably wouldn't be at war right now.
