He never explicitly said he would be a one term president or necessarily saw himself as one. I looked back to double check again, and he only made cagey statements about seeing himself as the transition between generations. A two term president could still qualify for that. The more explicit one term stuff was from his aides saying he was considering that
Should he have just been more direct, yes, but what he said was nothing as explicit as directly stating we need marijuana it to be legalized
Thats fair. This is more than a “signal”. What people attributed to Biden (you can dig through the articles of the day; it was very clearly taken as a signal he would remain a 1 term president) was a “signal” though, in the pure sense of it. Its a kind of political maneuver that could be a head fake, could be real, you can figure it out later.
The Associated Press reported that Biden said in October that he wouldn’t promise to serve just one term but that he wasn’t necessarily committed to running for another four years.
“I feel good and all I can say is, watch me, you’ll see,” he told the AP at the time. “It doesn’t mean I would run a second term. I’m not going to make that judgment at this moment.”
Holy shit you should be fucking so embarrassed. That link literally says, right in the first line, that it is just “reportedly” it’s not him being quoted. It literally confirms what the other poster said and absolutely contradicts what you said.
It’s okay to be wrong, but fuck man, you shouldn’t of read at least the first line of your sources to make sure they support your claims when you submit them. That’s just mind numbingly dumb.
No. It was his words. His words he said. With his mouth.

What the fuck else do you think it means to “signal” something in politics?
However, unlike that Harris isn’t making a cagey statement here. She’s directly stating that marijuana should be federally legalized
Really the title of this article shouldn’t be signals

You should really read your sources.

Nowhere in this article Biden says he will Serve only one term. He basically said that it’s an option - nothing more.
It’s like some one is paying you not to get it.
Liar.
Nope. Just reality.
There’s no quote from Biden (aka ‘his words’) in the article you linked saying he’ll be a 1 term president. That’s reality.
