For example, he's against open borders (calling them a "dystopian nightmare"), he is against transgender men competing in women's sports, he is against "woke capitalism," particularly in response to comments made by Target's CEO, he has said that he is in favor of charter schools, and he is (he says) very supportive of small and medium-sized business and wants to break-up large corporations and banks.
The first 2024 presidential debate between President Biden and former President Trump was held on Thursday night. It marked the first time a sitting president debated a former one.
The 90-minute discussion hosted by CNN was more of an incoherent debacle than any substantive debate. Biden was halting and disjointed. He was hard to hear, muffled his lines and often appeared to lose his train of thought. Meanwhile, Trump... “Joe Biden really failed to rise to this moment,” says Chris Lehmann, D.C. bureau chief for The Nation. “I expected nothing great, but it was so much worse.”
We also speak with Norman Solomon, executive director of the Institute for Public Accuracy and the co-founder of RootsAction.org, which sponsors the “Step Aside Joe!” campaign. He says Biden’s performance in the debate showed “he is clearly impaired” and unable to defeat Trump, which is “a gift to the extreme right wing.”

Robert Kennedy Jr tries to have it both ways on immigration. He says he wants to stop illegal immigration, but he wants to do so by labelling all illegal immigration as “legal immigration,” and he opposes any deportations for any purpose whatsoever. And I’ve heard him deliver a speech in person that not only praised the wisdom of communism, but hail how wonderful Fidel Castro was. He’s a nutjob who figured out he has to sound different from the other cloned NPCs of the Democrats if he wants to run against them, but he makes Bernie Sanders sound like a calm, reasonable Republican.
