[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In retrospect who could have talked/forced Biden into not running for re-election?   It seems like a complete failure of the DNC leadership that they didn’t succeed (or try) to get him off the ticket.  It’s a real “Weimar Republic” moment for the US.[/quote]

When was the last time an incumbent was talked into not running?[/quote]

LBJ talked himself out of running when he saw the writing on the wall (although some suspect he was secretly hoping for a draft movement at the Chicago Convention).   But why worry about what's happened in the past?  This situation is unprecedented - an incumbent president from a party with a very good shot at winning in 2024, who is so personally unpopular and mentally compromised that he puts the election out of reach.  That's exactly when the DNC should step in.[/quote]

Yes, it is unprecedented. It has never happened.

And, look at all the DCUM threads about who should replace Biden. The answer is, no one else can beat Trump. No one else has the polling, backing or experience to do it. Yes, Biden is old. It is what it is. I would rather have old joe than old and corrupt Trump.[/quote]

Completely disagree.  At this point, Biden is scarier than Trump.  Put in another sensible democrat and that calculation changes completely. [/quote]
