    That’s a crazy thing for him to say. The election isn’t just his own little personal competition.

      You didn’t watch his interview?

      Watch it, he’s completely out of touch with reality and only cares about himself.

      Not even “both sides” bullshit. trump would still cause more damage, but Biden is in no way capable of being president.

      It’s 20 some minutes, just American up and watch it.

      There’s not much time left to get the DNC to boot him, he’s not leaving on his own.

            Why did Nancy Pelosi run again (she’s currently 84)? Why did Chuck Grassley run for a term ending in 2028 (he’s currently 90)?

            I’m 30 years old, and can’t wait to retire. Why won’t these dinosaurs take their millions and fuck off? They’re literally from the generation before the boomers, wtf

              Their “work” and your work are not equivalent.

              Their work is more similar to being on a home owner association and attending a few meetings here and there.

        We’re so fucked. Biden is so fucking selfish and out of fucking touch that he literally going let Trump win.

        If he doesn’t get his head out of his ass and Trump wins I hope he pays the consequences him and rest of his family. Because he literally will be handing America over to a fucking shit head fascist fucking all of our families.

          I’ve been saying this for months now that they need to replace Biden. People here just called me a Trumper for criticizing Biden. And now…

        I refuse to watch it. I’ve checked out at this point. He won’t drop out, and he is 100% going to lose the election. I’ve seen this show before. Spending an hour watching the same fucking story with a different actor is a waste of time. I knew Hillary was going to lose in 2016, and I know Biden is going to lose in 2024. My state is deep blue, so there is no reason I can find to even bring myself to care about this freakshow anymore.

      In reality, yeah, but it sounds like he wants to show a bit of maturity to set him apart from his opponent.

        Well, I know you definitely didn’t watch the interview…

        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8LoAsHz-Mc

        Nothing in there was mature, and he said he wouldnt drop out unless “lord god” told him too. Wouldn’t entertain the possibility that some people may think he’s too old. Refused to believe he was losing in polls, refused to believe people had called for him to drop out, refused to answer a bunch of questions, or acknowledge there was any chance of him losing…

        But then when he says he really doesn’t give a fuck if trump wins after spending 4 years saying trump winning would be the end of America…

        This is an example of him showing maturity and a good thing to you?!

          he said he wouldnt drop out unless “lord god” told him too.

          I don’t think that’s exactly a fair characterization. He was being given a list of one person after another with “what if X asked you to drop out?”. It would be complete idiocy for him to say yes to any of that. So, he used the “lord God” expression to make it clear that his answer wasn’t going to change. Whether or not he is open to dropping out, he’s not going to nod in that direction publicly unless he’s already decided to do it. Frankly, it was a dumb line of questioning.

          End of America for plebs, he basically said the quiet part out loud here that he is rich enough that his life won’t change even a bit for the worse, if anything it might get better.

          There is a whole: “I’m doing this for you and if you don’t appreciate it I’m just gonna lose and enjoy my money with a trump presidency” attitude imo.

          With his current mental state I’m pretty sure anyone could hide behind a bush and tell him they’re God and that he should drop out. I think it would work.

      So I guess it’s not a big deal if Trump wins? It’s not an apocalypse if he wins? This is like advising to make your own coffee while the banks get bailed out. When it comes to people voting, people should vote for Biden even if he can’t string a coherent sentence because Trump is the absolute biggest threat to democracy, but when it comes to Biden stepping down, it’s okay if he loses to Trump as long as he gives his best.
