Does this work better for you?

Because Trump won’t listen. He’s a narcissistic asshole and doesn’t give a shit as long he has money and power.

People are calling on Biden to step down because Biden isn’t a huge fucking asshole.

My momma raised me to have standards. I wouldn’t debase myself to getting raw dogged by only a single dick for a crunch wrap supreme. I’m worth better.

Sure, but much like Reddit, the primary use case is just reading the article title and commenting based off of that. /s

Do you have three dicks?

Do you have two buddies?

I took three strangers up the bum raw for a crunch wrap supreme. Fucking worth it.

Whitehouse is my personal pick, but both Buttigeig and Whitmer seem like likely establishment picks - both have been pushing a lot of media presence lately.

I think Biden would make a pretty passable president because he’d be surrounded by a competent cabinet… but my opinion doesn’t determine the president (otherwise, we’d be on like year 16 of a Sanders administration).

His debate performance was weak enough that I’m concerned Biden won’t beat Trump. Trump absolutely cannot win this election or any future one, he must be kept out of office. My concern isn’t about Biden’s performance once in office, it’s about Biden’s ability to gain the office.

Honestly, I’m not going to give Biden a 10/10, but his last administration was pretty solid, like 7/10 level. He reacted extremely poorly to Gaza and has been underwhelming on labor but he’s gotten a lot of good shit done.

Friday is the best day to drop bad news - since it delays the major news networks from getting live pundit reactions on it. If he stepped down on Friday they could potentially get a replacement announcement (and media circuit on late night spots) running starting on Monday next week.

Holding off until Friday makes a lot of sense though my gut says an announcement immediately after the debate would likely have been more effective. That may have possibly created optics that Trump “won” the debate though.

We’re also, unfortunately, seeing this with Sotomayor right now. Though she may also be holding out because she assumes the senate would just block her replacement.

She’s an awesome jurist but she has serious health issues.

Just FYI dude, I’m a real person and accusations of astroturfing are completely unproductive to actually having a conversation.

You added absolutely nothing of value to this thread.

I did chose a lane - you’re just engaging in bad faith conversation tactics. You consider my position to be invalid out of an apparent misled belief that I’m just trolling and therefore are just repeating dead lines to shut down the conversation.

I emigrated up to Canada so I’m fine but my mother is a retiree in the US and a staunch Biden supporter. The debate has her terrified that she’ll need to pack up and leave because, to most of us, Biden looks incapable of winning this election. I voted for Hillary even after she used the DNC to muscle out Sanders but she was a deeply flawed candidate and she lost. Biden seems to be on the same trajectory, an establishment darling that is unpopular and struggling to excite the voting base.

Whichever Dem is on the ballot in November is getting my vote but it really looks like Biden is going to fuck us all and get Trump elected again.

Yea, that’s an immensely naive view of the world. It’s got real “bootstraps” energy: “Why don’t those politicians who are trying to enact change just get ostracized from their party and the funding base while facing up against a multi-billion dollar political machine that will grind them into dust and then primary them for their disloyalty at the earliest opportunity.”

You’re right. They’re absolute cowards. They should make more principled stances that hamstring them from actually improving lives - its what Marjorie Taylor Greene would do and we love her. /s

I hope? He could also just be using the opportunity to double down.

He didn’t invite challengers or step back in advance of the primary. There is such a thing as soft power and he used it to make sure there wasn’t a real primary.

You mean which candidates publicly announced an intent to challenge a sitting president in a primary and torpedo their political career?

It is extremely disappointing that he didn’t take this opportunity to gracefully step back. People who watched the debate saw his performance and him trying to say “Nah bro, I got this” is really stupid.

Sure, there absolutely are bad faith arguers but there is also a significant slice of the population that is deathly afraid that Biden will pull a fucking Hillary. He has worked with the DNC to effectively eliminate any other candidates from entering the primaries and if his fucking hubris gets Trump elected he should bear all the blame.

No, it isn’t. Biden is letting his fucking pride erode our chances of avoiding a dictatorship.

We’ll see how future appearances are but he was incoherent at the debate and if that keeps up it makes another Trump presidency much more likely.

Also, fuck off for blindly assuming what everyone else thinks and assuming everyone who disagrees with you is arguing in bad faith.
