Work is slow.
You’re so right and smart. On that note it’s weird that nobody wants the US to bomb their own schools when an active shooter is holding up there.
Level the whole school. That will prevent future shooters.
I thought it was just his normal guy vibe without the shooting glasses. Pretty sure the hand in the pocket is common and I haven’t heard anything about a hilarious back story.
Leave language alone motherfuckers not speaking in Old English. smh
Work was supposed to be slow today. D’:
Harris has already been performing better than Biden in polls vs Trump. Other alternatives have been performing similarly to Biden, but that’s without considering that they don’t all have the name recognition of being the current president and the likely nominee. If the party rallies behind any of those candidates those polls will reflect that change. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-general/2024/national/
If you remember to open your eyes when you read this please don’t fixate on the outliers and try to look at the trends.
I simply don’t understand this reply.
Biden looks like a losing candidate. Wouldn’t both the moral and strategic answer be to run somebody who can beat Trump? Stopping the Christofacists from getting even more power seems both strategically and morally good.
Stopping that is important so why should the Democratic party not run the candidate most likely to win? If you think Joe Biden is the most likely to win Democratic candidate then I’d argue your misinformed or willfully ignorant.
Its unbelievable that you think the problem is not Biden or the Democratic Party’s flaws, but talking about their flaws.
Republican voters are happy with their nominee. While the Democratic party has its die hard fans many people vote for them as damage control. Many people can not be bothered to vote because they don’t feel like either party represents them. Wheeling out somebody with a sub 40% approval rating and abysmal polling isn’t going to increase voter turnout.
My argument is not that Trump is a better option than Biden. My critique is that running Biden shows an increased likelihood of a Trump presidency when looking at polling data. Keeping Biden in is a losing play and no amount of covering your ears when polls are brought up will change that. So, eat me.
Republican voters do not give a single fuck.
There are plenty of people who will vote for the democratic nominee even if it’s Biden, but if his performance reduces voter turnout then we get Trump. You overestimate the political literacy of the average person. A lot of people are burnt out or apathetic. You should want somebody who will beat Trump. Why are people hellbent on sticking with the candidate that has a poor approval rating and is polling poorly?
Did you expect Trump to hype up his political opponent?
After reading I now appreciate David Gerard’s dedication.
The date?
The Fly is the worse rated episode!?
Sometimes I upvote/downvote posts and comments on accident while scrolling… I might be giving people too much credit though.
Yes and no. It’s the same result if Biden is elected, but if Biden’s name on the ticket is shown to depress voter turnout then he may not get elected in the first place.
Harris. She is polling better and she has access to the campaign funds. I don’t like either, but I’ll take almost anybody over Trump. I wish people took him seriously enough to run better candidates.
You can’t say that everybody polls worse and then agree that Kamala Polls better.
Kamala would be the obvious choice if the party rallies behind her. She would most easily have access to the campaign funds.
I didn’t like Biden as a candidate before becuase of all of the reasons he’s been a favorite of the donors that you’re mad at for no longer supporting him. I don’t think he has the best shot at besting Trump. The media and donors suddenly turning on Biden is because of his dismal polling and a debate performance that worsened it. They are interested in their investment above all else. Biden is a career politician and he has been a favorite of wealthy donors until he became a liability.
I’m curious why you’re so ride or die for Biden. I’d prefer candidates other than Biden or Harris, but I’ll support either over Trump. I would prefer if the one picked is most likely to beat Trump though. I don’t like Christofacism.
The uncomfortable reality is Biden’s already bad approval rating will continue to worsen as the election gets closer and his minor flubs add up.
Do you want to tap in somebody else now and get to work or wait until its too late?
Pretending that there’s no possible other candidate doesn’t make it true either. Other candidates haven’t had to lobby delegates at convention since the 60s but the mechanism is in place for that. Another option is for the party to rally behind Kamala who is polling above Biden and who would also have access to previous their tickets campaign funds.
I agree that Roe V Wade is this election’s spoiler and Biden has been doing a lackluster job at drilling into that.
I would literally even take Kamla who is also unpopular, but I’m sure has a better shot. She also has the benefit of having access to Biden’s campaign donations if he drops out.
Manybof these articles are also listing all of the other options. That’s why I said literally anybody who doesn’t have a sub 40% approval rating.
Let them have trial by combat
