I’m so very glad to see him stop embarrassing himself. It was just so cringe and, far more importantly, he was likely to completely destroy the Democratic Party - possibly forever, given the stakes in this year’s election.
This precisely. He was hurting the Democrats. The time to reflect about Biden is after beating Trump in November. The more time Democrats spend praising Biden now, the more they are going to hurt their chances of victory.
Hillary 2024!!! Who’s with me???
tumbleweed
I don’t even think Hillary will be with you there, bud.
Link to Haaretz??
This is breaking news. I would have preferred a different site.
Things just got reeeeeeaaaallllly interesting. Who will the candidate be? Harris? And who will their running mate be? So close to the election… when will this rollercoaster end?
Don’t know yet. Still trying to read what was said. I hope they leave it open to the delegates to decide at the convention.
Mother fucker should’ve ran. The Democrats couldn’t held a primary and we would have had a chance. This last minute drop out just fucks us. Biden doesn’t care he will be dead soon. What a fucking mess. While the GOP have time to campaign and are ready for November the Democrats will need to even figure out who to run and what if they can’t get on the ballot in key states. Isn’t there deadlines that have passed?
No, no deadlines have passed. Ohio extended the deadline already. An open convention will energize the party. Biden not stepping aside was the last thing holding Democrats back from crushing Trump in November.
Odd question, if it’s only been posted on x, who’s to say it wasn’t hacked?
Edit: by now it’s been corroborated bunches of ways, I just wanted to stop and think. X is owned by a manbaby that isn’t beyond messing with the database for their own gain, and they did donate a bunch to the opposition.
X is just a dumb.
I can almost guarantee with it being the top story on all major news sites that they’ve received some confirmation. If not when majority of Democrats wanted him to drop out, if he insists he was hacked & is staying in… He’ll lose even more voters.
That’s it, we’re done. I’m still voting, but we are fucked. Dems just gave the white house to Trump. Free.
Biden was giving Trump the White House for free. Joe should have dropped out two weeks ago when it was obvious he was going to lose to Trump.
I’m inclined to agree; if he was going to do it, he should have done it as soon as possible.
There are scant few campaigning days left until the general election; every one is precious.
I’m still really grateful that he did it and listened. This is a big and positive shift.
He should get some major props, too. It’s a selfless act for the good of the country, and he didn’t have to do it.
he didn’t have to do it?
Really? Is democracy on the line or isn’t it? He had to do it cause he was going to lose to Trump and throw the House & Senate to MAGA. Biden doesn’t have to not push the nuclear launch buttons before he leaves office. Yay Joe, you are so selfless for not pushing the nuclear launch buttons. You could have, but major props for being so selfless for not doing it.
Personally if it were my magic wand, we would nominate the 🥾 (Buttigieg)
He would STOMP that orange.
He may very well. I hope that he challenges Harris and that they have a couple debates or make their arguments on a livestream. That would be good for America to hear their platforms and share their opinions about who they think the stronger candidate is.
