Biden was emerging from his Delaware campaign headquarters when the car ploughed into an SUV guarding his motorcade
President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden were rushed to safety by the Secret Service after a car suddenly ploughed into a parked SUV that was guarding the presidential motorcade.
Mr Biden was walking out of his campaign headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware, on Sunday night to his waiting armoured SUV when a silver copper sedan hit a US Secret Service vehicle that was closing off intersections for the president’s departure.
The sedan, which carried a Delaware licence plate, then tried to continue into a closed-off intersection, before Secret Service personnel surrounded the vehicle with their weapons drawn and instructed the driver to put his hands up.
Mr Biden was captured looking stunned and froze when he heard the loud bang close by.
That’s another fallacy: they might vote Democrat, or they might vote Green or Libertarian as a protest, or they might not vote at all. And it’s those latter two possibilities that matter, because (even Democrats admit that) elections are won on turnout, not flipping mythical swing voters.
Appealing to leftists and/or anti-authoritarians is what increasing turnout looks like, but neoliberals would rather lose than admit that.
Most won’t, because that’s a surefire way to get a Republican elected.
There are far more “centrists” in the US who need to be swayed to a party than there are leftists who will usually just vote democrat anyway to avoid a Republican in office.
If you can win without the left, you can lose without blaming them.
