    Listen. I don’t like Biden. I didn’t get a choice of who should run for the Democratic party in my state.

    But at the end of the day, I would pick a literal pile of dog shit that’s turned white from being cooked in the sun, over Donald Trump.

    The debate isn’t changing anyones mind. It sure is generating a lot of panic news though because to the news, appearing tired is just as damaging as appearing unhinged and lying nonstop.

      If the reason to vote for Biden is that he isn’t Trump, why shouldn’t the dems run a candidate that both isn’t Trump and is most likely going to hold onto their mental competence into next year? Either way, they’re going to get the “not Trump” vote which by your reasoning should still cover the vast majority of would-be Biden voters.

      If the media can get a presidential candidate to drop out just by repeatedly asking him to then why the fuck aren’t they calling for Trump to step down?

      Because they’re full of shit. That’s why.
