I think I go with the “it happened on his watch” theory of blame because these alternatives are, well, more depressing. But I fear that at least some of it is true.
What we see here at PPP is a lot of high information voters. But the wrong information. Not all information is created equal. Some random Twitter feed’s take on a news story is not the news story. People have completely lost the ability to make that distinction.
Which is similar if not identical to low information. They lack the tools to discern information from disinformation and a basic understanding of things like government and science.. They’re prey to the slickest information manipulators who purposely spread lies and falsehoods for their own benefit. It’s no accident that MAGA has targeted these folks. They’re very good at it. It’s been done for centuries. It usually starts with attacking the press and offering up a common enemy.

Well that degenerated into EVERY OTHER THREAD pretty quickly.
Getting back to the point of THIS thread: why would anyone blame Biden for the erosion of abortion rights?
My leading theory: it’s the “it happened on his watch” effect. Think about it. The sitting president gets blamed for everything that goes wrong (from the perspective of people who think repealing Roe was wrong). That may be because the sitting president tries to seize credit for everything that goes right during his term, whether or not he had anything to do with it. We’ve conditioned people that way.
Just a bunch of ignorant people. Some of the same that believe the 2020 election was fraudulent. Or those that believe that vaccines are bad. These are low information, low capacity, easily fooled dolts. intellectual capacity is bell shaped in a population.. These are those at the bottom (somebody has to be). I suspect other than that, it's multifactorial: the timeline (as you suggest), a lack of understanding about how SCOTUS works, intellectual isolation ( they're surrounded by other dummies), a preconceived political bias, lack of curiosity, lack of tools/time to garner info etc. We need to remember the grade school level civics understanding within some groups. There are folks that can't name half the states and have never been outside their own state...These are some of them.

don't see the connection between this and a group of dummies. you mean you really think biden was responsible for overturning Roe? perhaps we need to run cartoons explaining it like MAGA does.

A thread to document the appalling ignorance of a lot of Americans.
a new survey of registered voters was released last week from Navigator Research showing that a sizable number of Americans, incredibly enough, held Biden responsible for “the overturning of Roe v. Wade and the elimination of the federal right to an abortion.” That opinion was held by 34 percent of self-identified independents, 32 percent of Black voters, and 42 percent of Hispanic voters.
This 35% number keeps cropping up. hmm, that's the number representing trump's bedrock base. "I love the uneducated".

Uh huh. I don't desire a civil war but if it happens, we'll be on opposite sides. The most likely scenario involves trump losing or jailed. That would make you a rebel. Didn't go so well for them last time.
we're already on opposite sides. we do what we can. will be attending a fundraiser for a D congressional candidate shortly. Let's hope elections remain our way of choosing leaders.

I bet 4th and micro penis is in a polyamorous "relationship". So, to 4th&Short and that bad ass Tiber something along with BillSlime, you guys are slacking on your anti-Trump rhetoric. You guys turn every non-Trump related thread into an anti-Trump thread. What are there, 4 or 5 of you wimpy losers? Can any of you even grow a beard?
The best part of this thread was TiberPuss getting his/her ass handed to them/they about the Declaration of Independence. That "person" needs to go read a history book, lol.
Cue the newspeak of a "coup" (new word salad weapon of the left), racist, loser, bigot...I've lost track of the words in their "arsenal" at this point because it's so immature and ridiculous. You people have lost. You're toast. And nobody is paying attention to you anymore. It's not working anymore. You all are just entertaining us at this point and it's f****g hilarious! When the SHTF...I hope your hair dye and velcro hold up, lol!
Hair dye - No
Grow a beard - yes but my wife doesn't like it when I do.
Coup- didn't happen but was attempted

Commie shi.t poster report: Quack, MD
Joined TBD: August 29, 2022. (Another recent shi.t posting member....shocking!)
Days since joining: 625 days
Total posts: 9976
Post rate: 15.96 posts per day
TDS score= Posts mentioning Trump or MAGA / Total posts
1523/9976
TDS score = 15.96%
Estimated real TDS score* >25%
*TDS score will underestimate TDS post rate as memes and Twitter posts are not searchable.
The analytics team doesn't prefer to cite anecdotal evidence, but with this shi.t poster in particular we decided to make an exception with its infamous "by all accounts" post.
while being ignored, I'm receiving a great deal of attention from you. Not really desired but hey, it's a forum. 16% of my posts mention trump. That's much less than the media percentage of stories pertaining to him. Good for me!

I'm concerned with the potential for individual acts of voter fraud and not some nebulous potential for "widespread" fraud.
how bout we use the descriptive "consequential fraud", consequential being defined as affecting the results of an election? As far as I know, that's recently occurred only once recently ; In NC. There are some R pols in jail for it, I believe.

To influence the conservatives the Russians created bot farms that tried to influence the election by overwhelming people with all of the small examples of dishonesty until it was apparent you should not trust them.
To influence liberals they gave clear and obvious lies to the leading candidate and let the Media go to work. Obvious interference but you seem unaware who was actively involved.
So....the Russians are really bad....agreed. They re barbaric.
So why are cons ready to let them overrun Ukraine?

As long as we all believe only citizens should vote and only vote once and there should be some form of voter identification to weed out any potential fraud and the process of mail in signature verification is legitimate and state laws and rules about late ballot disqualifications are enforced properly we should be okay. I think that covers it.
Do you have evidence that there has been widespread fraud that would make a difference in an election? Without those, your concerns are unfounded and bordering on paranoia or even pandering to the rubes.

I think we've seen evidence of nearly every one of these characterizations in posts by the far right MAGA's here. Not sure what colonist and imperialist have to do with the others tho. It seems the common thread is that they all want whatever is best for them personally and worst for the groups they despise....

Not defending Tim Scott, but just curious ...
Do you promise to accept the results of the 2024 presidential election regardless of who wins?
Yup. I believe in democracy, with all its warts. Do you?

Why is a BILLIONAIRE so concerned over the sum of $135K? I get that he needs it hidden but why was he trying to shaft Peck$r and Cohen? Because he's not that wealthy...Bill Gates donates more than that on a daily basis to the fight against polio without blinking: https://www.rotary.org/en/gates-foundation-extending-fundraising-partnership-eradicate-polio. Trump is a phony. All hat and no cattle....

other than anger, neither trump nor his spouse appear to have any genuine emotions. They're plastic people; master opportunists devoid of honor. Every time I see either of them, I think of the evil characters in "Rosemary's Baby".

If you have 3 mortgages or 10 or 100, is the next dollar you spend worth any less?
I don't think this is an apt analogy. Individual personal mortgages don't increase the money supply for the entire economy, which makes existing money worth less.

We aren’t discussing the price of gas or Trump. At least I’m not. Your claim that energy prices “overwhelmingly” drive inflation is wrong. You are free to continue believing it.
Massive deficit Covid spending by both recent presidents overwhelmingly drove inflation....and it was the right thing to do. The economy would have been much worse off without it.

the tune will be very different in that case. The demographics will explain it simply:
As was the case in the 2018 midterms, voters with and without college degrees each accounted for roughly half of the Democratic Party’s voters in 2022 (51% held college degrees while 49% did not).
By contrast, a majority of Republican voters in 2022 had no college degree (63%); a smaller share had a college degree or more (37%). This is similar to the shares of Republican voters with and without a college degree in 2018.
White voters without college degrees made up a majority (54%) of Republican voters in 2022, compared with 27% of Democratic voters. Yet the share of Republican voters who are members of this group was down 4 points compared with the 2020 presidential election.
