The 81-year-old president said he’s bowing out after remaining defiant for weeks in the face of calls to withdraw from the 2024 race.
After weeks of republican pressure… Who the fuck is running now? Only fucking trump.
No, it was the elite democrats who put the pressure. They heard Biden saying “I’ll tax the billionaires” and that was it.
Edit: Downvoted either by Trump sympathizers or people brainwashed by said elites. The media campaign was relentless.
No, it was a whole host of people who are pragmatic and understood that he will not win. Trump is way ahead in the polls.
The polls mean nothing. There are better ways to know how Trump was going to lose AGAIN against Biden. But it doesn’t matter now anyway.
Why do they mean nothing? What other ways?
In my experience, the polls have been inaccurate in the last three elections. They always claim that one candidate is above another by a large margin, and then the actual numbers are quite different.
Hell, the polls gave Clinton the victory in 2016 lol! And Biden’s “blue wave” never happened.

They don’t seem very inaccurate to me. The polls showed Clinton would get more votes, which she did, but didn’t see Trump’s gains where it mattered.
They talk about Gallup, though. Were you referring to Gallup polls earlier too? (Genuine question…)
Good man.
Now let’s get this done.
What a stupid comment. Biden was getting stuff done. Everyone was cool with it until he said “I’ll tax the billionaires.”
If Trump wins, and god I hope he doesn’t win, we’ll totally deserve it, for being the party of ADHD.
Biden was shaky at best. I doubt there was a real chance he would have survived four more years of the most stressful job in the world (for an honest person, trump of course doesn’t work like that).
I think he did the right thing, and his administration was very successful and more progressive than I think most of us expected. I’d vote for him again, but I don’t think it was best for everyone.
I can’t comment on him enduring four more years of leading the nation, but he would have won the votes. He was never my top option in the past. But at this point, the democratic party is playing with fire. Let’s just hope it pays off.
I thought leaving him in was playing with fire.
Nope. Because now the party is in real disarray. Mark my words: if Trump wins, it will be because of what happened today. And the democrats are to blame. Yes, yes, Russia, China, Iran, all doing an excellent disinformation campaign, yes, yes, the GOP is compromised, etc. But ultimately, the democrats opened the floodgates of opportunity for Trump to win “because the gates looked too rusty and we need to replace them.”
Biden was fine. And I didn’t even like Biden. I would have preferred Sanders over him or Clinton. But we know what the elite dems did to him.
They were going to lose if he stayed in.
No, they weren’t. But anyway, it doesn’t matter at this point. We will never know.
