    Biden has the chance to do the coolest thing. He wont because hes the most tepid person in the most tepid party in the country but, I’d love to be wrong.

      Such a good word to describe Biden. Tepid. Like a beer that’s been sitting while i worked outside, or maybe the last sip of coffee. Not the best, but better than nothing.

        Supporting genocide and not stepping down when your opponent is a literal fascist and you’re unelectable, gets you compared with the last sip of coffee?

        We have very different opinions about the fundamental nature of “old, room temperature, completely flat” beer, if nothing else.

        Yeah I’m still drinking that last sip of coffee, I don’t care if it’s cold. Apt word, apt description.

        Especially when the alternative is a glass of poison. A warm, flat beer is not going to kill you, even though it might taste disgusting.

        The worst thing is that you don’t get to choose whether you’re drinking the warm, flat beer or the poison. Depending on where you live your vote might not even matter. A bunch of uninformed and misinformed idiots in a few random states will decide for you which you’re drinking.
