    G7: Joe Biden is breath of fresh air, says Boris Johnson

    Boris Johnson has described the US President Joe Biden as a "breath of fresh air" after they met on the eve of the G7 summit in Cornwall.

    "There's so much that they want to do together with us, from security, NATO, to climate change," the PM said.

    There is also "complete harmony" with Mr Biden over Northern Ireland, Mr Johnson added.

    Mr Johnson said the US, UK and EU all wanted to protect the Good Friday Agreement.

    Everybody is in complete agreement with Biden. Biden doesn't have a clue what he believes unless Obama's whispering it in his ear.

    This is nothing surprising, Boris Johnson condemned Trump's rhetoric before he was elected, and then again condemned his actions after the Jan 6th riots occurred when Trump was on his way out. It seems the only time any foreign leader liked him was when it was time to be diplomatic.. of course there's a possible exception for Rodrigo Duterte and Narendra Modi, I think those leaders had genuine reasons to like Trump

    In regards to Joe Biden, I'm not so sure he's all that popular internationally, but it's easy to imagine why our allies would be relieved to be working with him instead

    Boris is a clown who can't comb his hair. Figures he'd like another clown that sniffs hair.

    Yeah, He gives Boris and the other five something to laugh at. Watch for a “Kick me” sign on Joe’s back sometime during the proceedings.

    This is like the guy getting cucked and his wife introducing him to her bull and the bull saying how great of a guy the cuck is for letting him bang his wife.

    “Never could have gotten away with banging her with her last husband but man you sure are a great guy!”

    AGREE !!!!! Have been watching this visit coverage on BBC.........and even at the onset.......it is a totally different atmosphere...... and for the positive. Even though there are challenges........ one gets an impression that they want to work things out. There is no childish antics that distract from the serious business of the meet up. Nice shots of Jill Biden. and Johnson's wife walking on the beach and chatting. Even if staged........it helps to create and foster conducive atmosphere for cooperation. We will see what they achieve........but if they reinstate a healthier relationship with each other on the international stage... ...... that will be a plus. BJ seems more mature at this event.

    No, it’s called sincerity, experience, compassion and personality. Biden has been in government for 50 years and anybody who knows or has worked with him likes and respects him. He actually has a positive vision for America and the world at large. He actually likes and cares about people. He is getting a little old but make no mistake, he knows exactly what he is doing and has hired intelligent, honest and hardworking young people to help him execute his plan. I look forward to see how he handles Putin next week. He and his team are a huge step up from the clown show that proceeded him.

    Come on.....Don't knock BJ's hair style. It takes hours to get it just right ;-)

    Messy is in ;-).. and it suits him.

    Anyhow.... wishing them all a successful and productive meeting. It has not been easy for any nation during the past year plus. A renewal of relationships would be a good thing.

    Wow, you certainly have been gaslit. Biden has been the butt of jokes by comedians for years. He accomplished little in Congress, is known for how poorly he treats people around him, and doesn’t have a clue about much of anything. He has already given away the farm to Russia.

    I swear some were born just yesterday.

    Nothing to embarrass me about. I’m just not a fan of the turning white guys into feminine, emasculated cucks movement. Literally licking the boots of black guys.

    No thanks that’s not my style.

    Like shooting fish in a barrel. Nah, I'll stick (get it, stick, lol) to my promise.

    We can get together for a drink later. Talk about stolen elections. Is the Bamboo Palace good for you? Great place - no cucks - but you gotta watch 'em. The bartenders will shortshot you, and when nobody is looking, they wheel in these containers containing fake booze. Yep, fake. FRAUDULANT BOOZE! Once the booze is removed from it's original envelo...bottle, it's impossible to know what's being poured...without a label verification. AUDIT THE BAMBOO PALACE BAR!

    I mean, does this...

    ...look like this?

    Lol he got jokes. That’s cool if I was in your position I’d be doing the same thing you are in attempting to shame the other side into not looking anymore. Given how unlikely it is that the vote was legitimate, I would attempt to stop the other side from finding out the truth as well.

    You think I'm trying to stop something by poking fun at you? Lol. Lighten up.

    Something more cerebral (okay, okay, something more to read, lol)

    Why Angry White Men Love Calling People "Cucks" | GQ

    An insult is, by nature, telling of its source: you never insult with something that you don’t think is insulting. A woman would never sneer that another woman is fat if she herself would be comfortable with her body at any size, if “fatness” weren’t something she feared. A man mocking the size of another man’s genitals broadcasts his own belief that the length of one’s penis is something to be either proud or embarrassed about.

    Hey I was laughing I thought it was funny. Doesn’t change the shadiness of the election but funny.

    And of course I think it’s insulting lol Being such a submissive loser that you let another guy pound your wife is, IMO, more insulting than being gay but less insulting than being a pedophile.

    I will however disagree with the ACTUAL point they’re making in that article which is this part:

    “ “Cuck” is a concept borne out of insecurity: a fear that one is inadequate, sexually or otherwise, and that inadequacy will lead to the loss of the things that are important to him.”

    Not only do they provide no evidence to support this claim but it’s highly illogical. If you call someone stupid or retarded are you doing it because you worried about the fact you’re stupid or retarded? If you call someone a redneck or a racist are you worried about turning into one? Of course not, it’s an observation about the actions/words of the other individual. It’s not reflective of yourself, it’s reflective of your opinion of the other person. Just like if you were to call someone queer or a pedophile doesn’t mean you’re worried about turning gay or that you might want to have sex with children.

    Furthermore, it’s irrelevant if *I* think the concept is insulting anyway. Meaning if the person I’m attempting to insult doesn’t think the term is insulting then it’s not an effective insult. For instance if someone says “You act so white” or “You’re such a redneck” to me, they may mean it as being insulting but I consider it to be something which is a source of pride. Therefore the insult is not effective. (BTW that doesn’t mean they’re worried they might be a redneck does it?)

    This story is doing nothing more than recycling what the homosexuals did with the term gay. They’re suggesting anyone who says it in an insulting manner is actually concerned they may be that thing itself in an attempt to make the word as an insult fall out of disuse.

    Do you often have these sexual fantasies about famous people? Or is it just politicians that you have sexual fantasies about?
