Ridin' with Biden

gaussian said:
To be fair I don't think any Republican has criticized Biden's ability to navigate. This is a top tier example of false equivalence, a mainstay of dogmatic rules for radicals leftists.

You can drive a car and still have horrible memory and molasses slow thinking. I can think of 3-4 accidents in the last couple years here that were caused by elderly drivers who shouldn't have had their license anyway. I'm sure they could drive in a parking lot and score top scores but the requirement to remember events even minutes before ends up putting them in a wall on real streets.

At any rate the basement criticism is absolutely fair. The guy only makes public showings when they're covered for him and only responds to pre-written questions. "Basement" is just a metaphor for someone who doesn't come out unless it's "safe". Really weak argument typical of twitter but standard issue bullshit from a blue checkmark. Why is it that blue checks are universally are full of shit?

At this point I could care less whether Joe can remember where his navel is or not. He's doing a Great Job! GO JOE! And wow, those people he's picked to run the agencies are super sharp!

Newsmax host Greg Kelly and a guest on his show on Friday went after the appearance of President Joe Biden's dog, Champ, prompting a wave of criticism and ridicule on Twitter.

Kelly said that Champ, a German Shepherd, looks like he's "from the junkyard."

"Did you see the dog? I wanted to show you something I noticed. Doesn't he look a little rough? I love dogs, but this dog needs a bath and a comb and all kinds of love and care. I've never seen a dog in the White House like this. I remember Buddy, I remember Milly, I remember lots of dogs, but not a dog who seems ... I don't know. I don't know how much love and care he is getting. This dog looks like, I'm sorry, like it's from the junkyard," Kelly said.

Kelly then turned to his guests, including presidential historian and Reagan biographer Craig Shirley, asking for their thoughts on Biden's canine.

Shirley said Champ looks "dirty and disheveled" and "unlike a presidential dog."

The segment and Shirley's comments on Champ generated quite a stir on social media, with many questioning why Newsmax brought on historians to discuss the appearance of the president's dog.



Shirley and Newsmax did not immediately respond to separate requests for comment from Insider.

Though not nearly as well-known as Fox News in terms of right-wing news outlets, Newsmax grew in prominence among many conservatives in 2020 as it amplified then-President Donald Trump's baseless claims of mass voter fraud.

In December, as Newsmax faced potential legal actions over false election claims it gave oxygen to, the outlet issued a statement that said it had "no evidence" to support outlandish fraud claims against two voting-machine companies.

Trump gave one of his first post-presidency interviews to Newsmax this week, during which he reiterated his false assertion that the 2020 election was "stolen" and "rigged." Claims like this from Trump helped catalyze a fatal insurrection at the Capitol on January 6, which led to the former president's second

Say good-bye to Biden's dogs in the White House... Guess Newsmax is right, they didn't measure up.

Biden’s dogs returned to Delaware after ‘biting incident’ and ‘aggressive behaviour’
Major, 3, and Champ, 13, have been living in White House since January
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/...biden-dogs-white-house-delaware-b1814405.html

US president Joe Biden’s two dogs have reportedly been returned to the Biden family home in Delaware after displaying “aggressive behaviour” at the White House.

The family’s two German Shepherds, 3-year-old Major and 13-year-old Champ, were moved into the White House in January following Mr Biden’s inauguration.

But a source cited by CNN said the dogs were moved back to Wilmington, Delaware, last week after a “biting incident” involving Major and a member of White House security.

The extent of any injury to the victim is not known, but the incident was deemed serious enough to send both Major and Champ back to the family home.

Major has been known to behave in a more agitated manner, including jumping, barking and “charging” at stage, according to sources. Champ is much less active physically due to his age.

In an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show last month, Jill Biden said she was “obsessed with getting our dogs settled because we have an old dog and we have a very young dog”.

She said: “They have to take the elevator, they’re not used to that, and they have to go out on the South Lawn with lots of people watching them.

“So that’s what I’ve been obsessed with, getting everybody settled and calm.”

Champ was adopted as a puppy in 2008, shortly after Mr Biden became vice-president to former US president Barack Obama. Major was adopted in 2018 and is the first White House dog to have come from a shelter.

A person “familiar with the dogs’ schedule” confirmed to CNN that Major and Champ were in Delaware, but added they had been known to stay there when Ms Biden was out of town.

A Twitter account dedicated to the dogs, called “The First Dogs of the United States”, tweeted a photo of Major and Champ as recently as Monday.

But in a tweet on Tuesday, it said: “Aggressive behaviour? Never. Good boi just loves humans and want to play. Will miss the White House. - Major.”

The Independent has contacted the White House for comment.

Yeah... whatever. look who's been evicted from the White House this week.

More likely the dog was biting the Democratic hand that was feeding him. Sort of like the ANTIFA rioters.

And you have been defending that left-wing nutcases cancelling people and things is perfectly acceptable -- because everyone who does not follow your extreme-left wing doctrine is a Nazi who deserves to be cancelled.

Goldman Sachs predicts U.S. economy will grow 8% this year

Economists at Goldman Sachs raised their GDP growth expectations for the U.S. economy to 8% for 2021 in a note to clients on Sunday night.

Why it matters: If Goldman's forecast is correct, it would mark the largest economic expansion for the U.S. in generations.

  • Not only would 8% annual growth denote a stupendous turnaround from the coronavirus pandemic, it would significantly outpace the firm's growth expectations for the U.S. from as recently as late 2020.
What they're saying: "We have raised our GDP forecast to reflect the latest fiscal policy news and now expect 8% growth in 2021 (Q4/Q4) and an unemployment rate of 4% at end-2021 — the lowest among consensus forecasts—that falls to 3.5% in 2022 and 3.2% in 2023," Goldman said in the note.

  • "But we expect inflation dynamics to mirror those last cycle, and therefore expect this forecast to translate to only 2.1% core PCE inflation in 2023."
Between the lines: Goldman has been exceptionally bullish on the prospects for U.S. growth all year, far outpacing most other Wall Street banks' expectations.

  • The average growth expectation among Wall Street analysts is 4.7%, according to FactSet, and was 3.9% as recently as November.
  • Further, economic growth of 8% with inflation reaching just 2.1% would be almost unprecedented.
By the numbers: A growth of 8% this year would put U.S. GDP at around $22.6 trillion, marking a full recovery after the economy shrank 4.1% in 2020.

  • U.S. GDP hasn't grown 8% in a year since 1951, when it totaled $356 billion.
Of note: Goldman's metric tracks fourth quarter over fourth quarter growth, rather than year over year.
