The Transition of Joe Biden: what's everyone Yellen about?

Haha it’s just like when Biden told an immigration activist to go vote for trump

In a way it kind of seems like a win for the Mayo Pete haters. Transportation Secretary doesn’t seem like it’s a springboard to a POTUS run. This is where you go if you want to engage in comfortable Elaine Chao-style gritting.

I liked Julian but I guess he’s too short to ever be president. Oh well, them’s the rules.

Literally in this very thread a poster referred to him as the “Secretary of Trans Portation”

Yeah, I saw that. Shitty “joke.” But that has basically nothing to do with what I said, which was that I didn’t notice anyone in the thread “trotting out the whole YOU JUST DON’T LIKE HIM CUZ HE’S GAY nonsense”.

Anyway, Wichita clarified to me why he still found the older accusations valid, so we’re all good.

Tell me again about how nobody in this thread is making gay jokes about Pete?

Ok, then I misunderstood the point you were trying to make I guess.

I don’t really read tweet as a “gay joke about pete” as much as a “performative wokeness joke about shitlibs”

More young people. Yes. Like him. Debatable.

I don’t see how the elections results prove your thesis. I could just as easily say that the relative closeness of the election show that nominating Biden was risky and might have squandered a shot at a senate majority.

Explain to me how that joke is functionally different then if the transsec had been Jewish and the joke was the same but instead of a rainbow they put a Star of David on the sign?

The Pete joke is a riff on this

i thought it was more of a riff on the one where basically libs are same as conservatives but embrace BLM/LGBTQ

like they won’t actually help but they’ll do things like change the signs.

Those are a better example, “the next ones will be sent by a woman” was just the first thing I associated the Pete thing with.

That would only make sense if it was done for a dem who wasn’t himself LGBTQ.

i feel like it hits the mark pretty well
