It just needs to not be Trump at this point. Biden isn't a touchdown, he's a punt with the hopes that we can do better next time.
The problem is that the people who agree with your statement aren't the ones who we need to convince.
In my view too much is on the line to run Biden. He needs to voluntarily step down where then any younger fresh face that isn't Kamala can win simply by peoples' excitement for something different and youthful.
I fully agree with you but can also point to all of Biden's accomplishments and say, well, he's done very well, surprisingly well, thus far. I would much rather say, it's exciting to have fresh young blood in the White House that best represents the vast diversity of this country and the hope for its future. Being able to easily defend Biden's presidency isn't enough, if I'm being honest. But also, I mean do we really have to go over everything that DT fucked?
Worst election ever.
The problem is we're not given an opportunity to vote for who we want to be president. We vote against who we don't want.
RANKED. CHOICE. VOTING.
Biden policies or a handler's policies in the shadows?
If you have something to say, go for it.
After Reagan left office, we learned he had Alzheimer's, and Nancy was governing from the shadows. It didn't come out* until years after he died. 🤷♀️ I don't think he's well, and I thought it's obvious, but I guess people believe what they want to believe. That applies to me, too.
That’s a fair comparison. I don’t think Biden is in this situation, yet. Could be worse - it could be Trump making his own unilateral decisions.
He may or not be in that situation, but if he is, I don't think anyone will tell us, anytime soon.
Yes, tfg was worse and would be worse still. The Democrats see the writing on the wall and are not getting it together rapidly or "radically" enough. I'm aware that's not a popular opinion, but it's what I see, regardless of if everyone not for the other guy gets on board or not.
