Literally the first thing that popped into my mind!

I love sending this to my friends that use iPhones after Apple announcements.

[–] TommySoda@lemmy.world 77 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

He's not even the fucking president yet. But at the same time, I know people will believe this which is unfortunate.

[–] SkybreakerEngineer@lemmy.world 60 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The US has a long history of Republican future presidents pulling shit like this. Iran hostage crisis, Vietnam peace negotiations, etc.

[–] Pavidus@lemmy.world 35 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

As a matter of fact, yesterday I heard someone at work say, "Look at how much he's done and he's not even president yet."

[–] AbidanYre@lemmy.world 65 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

He did manage to get a sex trafficker to resign from Congress.

[–] hddsx@lemmy.ca 15 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

How many republicans house members does he need to nominate for a democratic majority

[–] wjrii@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

I feel reasonably confident there was a list that had to be scrapped at the very last moment, once someone actually did that math.

[–] randompasta 46 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Start naming it the Biden ceasefire agreement. Don't let them take ownership.

[–] jonne@infosec.pub 15 points 3 weeks ago

Nah, let Trump own it, because Israel is definitely going to break it anyway.

[–] clutchtwopointzero@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Biden is so soft on this that he will let this slide

[–] makyo@lemmy.world 39 points 3 weeks ago

I’ve got some rage reserved for the Biden team right now. They do actually do some good things but are heinously miserable at communicating it so of course the MAGA thugs fill that vacuum with their own ‘info’.

[–] Xanis@lemmy.world 28 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

It's on us to fight this shit. Get angry and stay that way. Go on Twitter and other platforms to directly challenge this assertion. Give them not a single inch without having to fight for it.

[–] pixxelkick@lemmy.world 41 points 3 weeks ago

Don't go on Twitter... that actively funds musk.

Go everywhere but Twitter.

Do keep calling it Twitter though.

[–] Clinicallydepressedpoochie@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Isnt there better things to go fight about? Biden getting cred for a deal in the middle east is really the last thing on my mind.

We should be breaking ties with the democrats entirely. They have sold us to the wolves and for 8 years now shown they cannot deliver a decisive win against the rise of authoritarianism.

[–] Xanis@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

We must not give them an inch wherever and whenever we can. Fight back with clear communication and facts. Challenge constantly. Party doesn't matter. Remember that many people who voted for Trump did so legitimately not understanding what it would mean. Time to educate because people will start wanting to listen

We should strike, trump going to want to claim credit for the economy biden built. We should strike and tear it all down immediately so he actually has to build a working one rather than slowly dismantling it.

[–] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Amazing! Every word ~~that you just said~~ in your last two sentances was wrong!

They did so because they want to hurt people. People will get hurt.

Educate them? If they could be educated, they wouldnt be republican.

What do you think the democrats were doing over the last 8 years? Twiddling their thumbs? They have been trying to educate people. Nonstop. But it doesnt help because these people do not want to be educated. They want to be shepherded around by a strong man who can make the "right" decisions for them. They want Trump to take control. There is no deeper thought, no platform, no ideology. They arent seeking to gain anything from his presidency. His presidency is not going to convert any trumpers because hes doing exactly what they wanted him to do: hurt people.

[–] Xanis@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Not all who voted for him voted FOR Trump. I agree that MAGA is likely never going to be convinced. The rest of them can be and they should be the ones we're willing to talk to.

[–] card797@champserver.net 1 points 3 weeks ago

No Twitter. Go on Facebook! Old people hate sane opinions.

[–] Atelopus-zeteki@fedia.io 19 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Trump team can say anything they want, but with their historical record, quite clearly, it doesn't need to contain facts OR truth.

[–] randompasta 6 points 3 weeks ago

There's a saying that history is written by the victors. Be careful with thinking too far in the future.

[–] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 15 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The expanded war and genocide with extra spice was Netanyahu's way of ensuring Trump win. This was widely announced in Israel as the "inauguration gift" for Trump. Stop thinking the DNC lost the election. The most genocidal Israel supporter won. They fulfilled their mission purpose, and get to fundraise over project 2025 now.

[–] jonne@infosec.pub 9 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Nobody forced Biden to go along with it, or Harris to promise to continue the exact same policies. This is the DNC's making. The DNC failed their voters, not the other way around. Maybe next time try promising to do popular things, and follow through on the things you promised last time.

[–] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 0 points 3 weeks ago

The organizational mission of the DNC is to fundraise. Since Obama especially, and earlier, zionist sources of fundraising have dominated. Winning is secondary to both fundraising and Israel first rule over America. The hopey/changey stuff wins. The fear of Trump is good at scamming fundraising, and helping make sure he was GOP candidate made sense before Oct 7th, but after it was purely Netanyahu's decision of who would win. Media and fundraising followed Netanyahu, and being as genocidal, and disrespectful to peace/ceasefires as possible, ensured disgust with human Americans that tend to support DNC. DNC, can choose to lose even as they fundraise pretending otherwise. Politics is always a giant slushfund of middle people happy to get paid.

The opposition party in America needs to oppose Israel first rule over America. It is a mistake to trust the DNC to assume that role.

[–] mctoasterson@reddthat.com 14 points 3 weeks ago

Its not really a "win" for anybody. It has a 60 day timeframe, which not-at-all-coincidentally aligns to expire right as Biden leaves office. Then Israel will have the greenlight to pursue whichever strategy they wish.

[–] frezik@midwest.social 11 points 3 weeks ago

Which could be true in the same way Reagan freed the Iranian hostages.

[–] julysfire@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

Knew this would happen to moment it was announced

[–] raspberriesareyummy@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

Does it matter anymore before Nazi-America starts rewriting history books anyways?

[–] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 8 points 3 weeks ago

The Orange Turd doing what he does best.

[–] mhague@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

I read about the ceasefire being broken before I read about Trump taking credit... heh
