He spent most of his life in government.

He tried to vote in a constitutional amendment to make sure states could overturn Roe v Wade. He was pro capital punishment until like five years ago. He did so much horrible shit over the years it's hard to keep up. But now it's trust me bro, just vote for me one more time and I'll undo all the horrible shit I did permalink fedilink source parent [–] iheartneopets@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago (1 child) Not so much "came to terms" with it as much as "this dumb motherfucker is the only way we escape Trump. I hate him and his policies but I'll vote for him I fucking guess." Just like where we are now, but now many are even more pissed because it was already supposed to be just one term of a lesser evil before we'd have new options. Now goal posts are being moved and we all have to do it AGAIN for an asshole like Joe Biden who does not deserve it.
