Got it, no then. I do think that both foolish and repugnant.

That’s one opinion. Evidence in US history says otherwise. It is fair argument to make but the counterpoint is still does switching to Kamala Harris win enough additional voters to warrant dumping the ticket that already beat Trump.
For anyone who’s played blackjack- we stand on 17 not because it is a great hand. We stand because the other options are unlikely to meaningfully improve your position and highly likely to blow your shit up.
Just our Prime Minister on election day waiting for his turn to be interviewed after the "most tattooed mother in the UK"

On the other hand Macron in France got absolutely torched by Le Pen. How the hell did France and UK vote in complete polar opposite directions?

Both are the result of fascist party rising at the expense of moderates though… just in different system/context, in one Macron got merked, in the other Tories did.
The fascists only get 4 seats in UK Parliament (same as greens) but that doesn’t tell the story of ~180 seats I heard reported the Tories lost because the far right was strong enough to split the vote.
Labour didn’t win any more votes than under Corbyn’s weaker years, and lost a lot of votes compared to Corbyn’s strongest. The Tories were just that weak vs the ascending far right.
I do expect that in the 2nd round it won’t be the fascists that get to make Government, but if France wants to avoid that the far left will be getting significant power/consessions in some form.

Finally, a candidate who can get young people to the polls.
Guys don’t worry— Joe Biden assured us that he is doing the goodest he can to win again in 2020.
wait actually it’s even worse because this was in response to asking how he’d feel if he lost— what his feeling would be in January after failing democracy.
So fixing the grammar “I’ll know I did my best.” Is a terrible answer.
Based on that answer I’m glad that he’ll sleep well at night, even if he loses knowing he did his best.
I’m glad to hear he will rest easy, no thought at all for the encroaching end of civil rights, liberal democracy, no worries about the fate of healthcare or social security, the fate of Ukrainians or children in Gaza, for the fate of so much of humanity set to be devastated by climate change.
You did your best Joe
Absolutely psychotic.
Pull it together. Joe is not failing democracy. Elections are won on the ground. And Joe being the incumbent who already beat the other guy is favored. Maybe take a step back from the replace Joe agonizing because it is highly unlikely to happen at this point.
Triggered because former Warrenite. I guarantee that if Biden loses you guys will sound just like that again.
Like I said, nothing to do but wait and see if the man’s got the sauce.
But ground game? Pffffftt
Show me the army of volunteers and organizers ready to go to bat for Genocide Joe. I have doubts about the field able ground game when 75% of your own voters want a different candidate.
For all the geniuses out there who think someone else would be better,
1) explain to me who it is,
2) how they get on the ballot in all 50 states,
3) how they get the money and apparatus together to get this done in 4 months (the over 100 million Biden has on hand doesn’t transfer)
4) how we explain that a random person has been selected… subverting the votes that were casts, because of bad polls.
Shades of Donald Trump. Gotta love it.https://x.com/AssLatam/status/1809666584689979863
If biden started doing this he'd win all electoral colleges personally
BakugamesShades of Donald Trump. Gotta love it.
What I’m saying is that if the President wants to sell us his sex drive as proof of vigor, he shouldn’t leak it to the press about what aides said in some book—
Somehow, after all that has happened, Trump maintains enough support to legitimately vote him into office. I personally would vote for a mannequin found in a Sears dumpster over Trump but hey, Democracy am I right. If Trump wins he wins, and the frustrating lesson is that if America wants it, America gets it. If Trump wins I don't blame Biden (who has routinely and consistently enabled policies and laws that are, as the kids might say, based as fuck). I blame the people. But if that's what Americans want... we deserve it.
