Shut your mouth!

We will spare no measure to protect Joe.

This. What I hate in addition to this is that WTOP traffic kept calling it “police activity” and didn’t say “Presidential motorcade.” That pissed me off, too. I’m done with WTOP.

Yes, it's a normal safety protocol. I mean, regardless of party, do any of us want to see Kamala Harris as POTUS EVER?


That would be a big ole NO!!! NEVER!!

It’s none of your business why the road is closed for the president. You don’t NEED to know. It’s a security measure, dummy.

It’s a fantastic opportunity to sit quietly in your car and meditate and reflect about how lucky we are to have Joe Biden as our president, lord and savior.

Well I just got home. 1.5 hours for a 25 minute usual rush hour trip.


123 McLean is bumper to bumper from GW to Tyson’s and Geortown Pike is bumper to bumper from CIA to 123 and ain’t moving.


People are late to get how to their kids, babysitters. People are late for dinner plans, sports for their kids, doctor appointment, and so forth.

For what? Biden wanting to go to a fundraiser!!!!!!!!!!!!! During rush hour and an afternoon with thunderstorms. What an ass.

I’m sure he thinks we should suffer in traffic so he can collect his million from his fundraiser.

I’ll remember this when I vote. He should have rescheduled.

If it was related to official duties, I might forgive him. But a fundraiser? Hell no.

Yeah.
I’m used to traffic from motorcades and it comes with bing here in DC.

But this is indeed pure Stupidity.

Rush Hour road closure on GW parkway and The Entire 495 IL!!!!!!!!!!! Wtf? Also to add it is a stormy day. But to shut down 495 for a fundraiser during rush hour is the height of stupidity.


And most of all, he probably doesn’t give a crap.

I don’t remember rush hour road closures for a fundraiser but I would never vote for Trump, traffic jam or not.

I’m LMAO at all the trumpers and GQP’ers here whining about being stuck in traffic, hahaha.

I love it. I love that Joe is rubbing your noses in it. I’m delighting in this.

I will vote for Biden even if they have to weekend at Bernie him. But it was asinine to shut down the Beltway at that time.

I’m just tying to get home to my kids and it’s been 2 hours so far and I will have 1 hr to go.

Usual trip is 45 min in rush hour. And yeah. I’m not moving so I’m typing this.


I don’t give a crap about politics or Republican or Democrat, just pissed at stupidity of Biden and his team to do this to basically NoVA and Montgomery county.
