President Joe Biden, fighting to save his endangered reelection effort, said his disastrous debate performance last week was a “bad episode” and there were “no indications of any serious condition” in a highly anticipated interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos.
It does matter, because we have two old people running for the office, and one of them is a convicted felon that should also be in prison.
We won’t be much better if we force Biden out. There isn’t anyone that would be a clear and obvious choice.
Your argument is based on the wishful thinking that the citizenry is rational, informed, and not apathetic. This belief is within the context of there NOT being a massive right-wing propaganda machine that clearly controls the vast majority of the narrative in this country.
Like no shit we all know Trump is bad. Hello? He’s been saying this shit and doing TERRIBLE things for over 8 years now.
The problem is that for whatever reason, none of this shit is sticking, even when the media covers things like January 6th hearings, his criminal indictments, his impeachments, etc…
So while Biden’s numbers continue to decline and Trump widens his lead, are you REALLY going to sit there and say, “hey guys don’t worry, just one more scandal and this time we got him!”?
So naturally since the cult isn’t changing, we must change ourselves to improve our odds.
But we will be better.
The party doesn’t nurture new talent because they’re scared of moving to the left. Guess we gotta stick with the guy who party leadership wants no matter what!
They already did the primaries. Whoever they choose after Biden, it won’t be a democratic choice. That’s going to lose points no matter who they nominate. Just about the only person who could do better in the general election than Biden right now is Bernie, and he’s already said he’s too old for this and endorsed Biden.
The ones where the only candidate to appear on all the ballots was Biden? Yeah, great “primaries”. You got the candidate you want and everyone else can go to hell. Well, when he loses to Trump, you’ll be right there with me.
