Did he do it for the memes?

    This is all vibes with no actual analysis, lol. Dems and their voters want them to drop.

      And they will want him to stay in two weeks, if he doesn’t do a silly in one news cycle.

        He’s always doing “a silly,” 100 Palestinians were murdered yesterday. His mental capacity is night and day different from 2020, which was already night and day from 2008/2012.

        Even if the majority want him to stay (which is wrong for now), there are still a huge number of people disengaged by him. Do you think swapping him out would hurt the DNCs chances?

          Yes, I do think that. There will be chaos, infighting and accusations of anti-democratic behavior.

          Which might be moot, given the events yesterday.

            Why would it be “anti-democratic behavior” if the majority want him to step down?

            It’s even worse now that Trump pulled the best PR of his life yesterday.

              Because the primaries are over. The rest is polling which is a private exercise, not even a semblance of oversight. The democrats had a chance to speak and they spoke 90% in favor of Biden. There is no do-overs in the process.

              Take a look at the UK and post-brexit remorse. Sucks, but once you vote you accept the consequences.

                Gotcha, so the will of the people doesn’t matter to you, optics does. Can’t think of a more worthless way to view politics, to he honest.

                  The will of the people has been heard in the democratic process. The people chose Biden when it was time to choose. If the will of the people doesn’t matter to you (or whatever CNN says about the last poll is more important than election results) I can’t think of a more worthless way to view politics…

                    The people didn’t have anyone else to choose in many instances, and not every state had a primary. The DNC basically skipped the process. The will of the people is important, that’s why I want the genocide to stop and Biden to be swapped out.

                    If you again care more about making sure the genocide continues and harp on people for not being as willing as you to support genocide, then you may be a monster.
