This is where I will make constant updates about "Political Tweets That REALLY Didn't Age Well"
I will update this thread VERY FREQUENTLY. It should open up some interesting political discussion on a wide range of topics.
"Speak when you are angry - and you'll make the best speech you'll ever regret." - Laurence J. Peter
“I am all for everyone having a voice; I just don’t think everyone has earned the microphone. And that’s what the Internet has done.” - Aaron Sorkin

America and much of the world are facing complex and massive issues with food insecurity. Certainly those in America have it much better than in many parts of the Non-Western world as of today, but the problem still looms as inflation spikes, fuel costs skyrocket and the threat of possible World War and/or nuclear war loom. Why does Joe Biden try to dismiss and blame food insecurity issues away?
There is open hypocrisy from BOTH SIDES of the political aisle regarding vaccine mandates and abortion rights. When does "My Body/My Choice" become relevant in the eyes of your political opposition?
And the current controversy of "busing" illegal immigrants to Big Blue strongholds. Even AOC doesn't want them in her district. What happens when one's virtue signaling while in public office actually gets tested?
These are some political topics with real range to them. I'll leave this here for others to discuss.

Adams Blames Migrants for Shelter Woes. Critics Say That’s Too Simple.
There’s anecdotal evidence of an uptick in asylum seekers in New York City’s homeless shelter system, but advocates say it’s convenient to blame them.
