    That is why we throw them out every couple of years and choose someone different.

    I do the same with my underpants.

      Right… you do understand that most politicians in western countries are career politicians that have been there for decades, right?

      A good example is Biden himself. He’s been there in politics for like 50 years. It’s a geriatric club at this point it’s become a common joke.

      Same delusion as the poster of the meme. People believe in the same ideals that created the problem without looking at what it has become. Not everything that sounds good is good. Life is more complex than the simple model that simple people keep believing in. People will always find a way to abuse a system for their own benefit. That’s the result of “power corrupts”.
