And as a major in the army, none of your speeches are as complicated. |
The Dems do not get a pass for failing to provide a competent alternative to Trump. You can know Trump sucks but also find Biden to be an unacceptable alternative. |
Denial? It's a reality that I don't see any solid D alternatives stepping up. It's a reality that if the people who are upset about Biden having a bad debate decide to just dither and screw around without a plan, that they are guaranteeing Trump a win. It's also a reality that Trump is also in serious cognitive decline, IN ADDITION to being nasty and authoritarian. So where's the denial on my part? Meanwhile, every damn Republican supporting Trump is in deep deep denial about Trump. Every Democrat saying "step down" without having an alternative lined up is in denial. It's also denial to think that Biden's funding warchest can easily and legally just be directly handed off to whatever Dems do pop up - instead Biden could only transfer it to Party committee or PACs or refund it to donors. It's also denial to not understand just how far behind any new candidate will be in terms of logistics. |
Should have thought about that a year ago. |
I guess you don't realize (or care) that you are very much in the minority. Best of luck. DP |
| Yup |
Should have already been obvious that I don't care about your takes on much of anything. And if I'm the minority (and we don't care) and you're the majority and everyone already agrees with you then you're obviously wasting your time and should just move on. But if you keep showing up here yapping then obviously there's a problem with your worldview and you aren't here in good faith. |

The crucial question is that do you think he can beat Trump?
I think the debate (and his lack of live non scripted events since) have made it appear that he can’t. It’s time for him to go. He’s just ruining his reputation by staying. He’s also dragging everyone else down with him. For example, Harris will be accused of “covering up” for him. |
This is a normal reaction. |
It is if you are an angry, old man. |
Right now the title of angriest senile old man in American politics is solidly held by Donald Trump but keep trying :lol: |
He is the alternative we have, so choose accordingly. If you honestly believe Trump as an autocrat for the rest of his life is better than another year of Biden and then 3 years of Harris, I don't know what to tell you. |
Where did you get this from? |
|
Biden claims he raised $38M in donations after the debate, mostly individual donations. That blows Trump's $14M out of the water.
I think Biden may be correct that people don't really care if he is able to do the job, since they hate Trump with every fiber of their being. Many posters here write that they would vote for the reanimated corpse of Stalin, a man responsible for the murder and mass starvation of tens of millions of people, vs Trump. Accordingly, I tend to agree with Biden that he is in the clear with the democratic base and it's really just swing voters, who are less opposed to Trump but by no means like him, that will make the decision for everyone. |
Did you just come crawling out from under a rock and are completely unaware of the numerous analyses that point to Trump's authoritarian tendencies, comments and behavior that have been written over the last several years? |
