[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems like the consensus is the Biden is the one who can defeat Trump. But does anyone else feel like Dems need a back up plan?

Folks, if Trump drops dead or somehow winds up in jail, Republicans can nominate Haley. And I think she would soundly defeat Biden. I think Dems are screwed if Haley is the nominee.

I feel like they should at least have someone waiting in the wings for that scenario. It's not entirely implausible.[/quote]

As a democrat, I don’t fear Haley as president. I fear a second Trump term. If Trump drops dead and Haley is the nominee, the race would be closer, and if Haley won, it wouldn’t be catastrophic.

That said I don’t think Haley would win a general election. Voters continue to reject republicans for overturning Roe v wade and for the damage Trump has done to the party.

I do think Dems need a better back up plan for Biden than Kamala Harris though.[/quote]

In the latest polls, Haley beats Biden by 19 points. It would be a landslide.

But Haley is not going to be the nominee. It will be Trump vs Biden.

And if you include third parties - Kennedy etc - Trump wins very easily. Presently, roughly 15-20 percent of Americans are intending to vote third party. And that hurts Biden a lot more.

It's his age. That's the main thing. Really stupid idea for Democrats to roll with a rapidly declining man who will be 86 (!) in a second term. And no one has any faith in Kamala Harris.  [/quote]
Why don’t you fault the GOP for choosing Trump again? Why do the Democrats have to clean up everything for you?[/quote]

Exactly.  Get rid of trump already.  [/quote]

Trump AND Biden both need to go.  If you can't admit that, I don't know what to tell you.

Had the GOP convicted Trump after he fomented an insurrection we would be here. Biden is only running because he beat Trump once and doesn’t want to have Dem infighting when we all need to pull together to squash the MAGA authoritarian movement. I don’t think people realize how serious this election is to keeping a democracy. This isn’t about policy, it’s about halting us slipping into authoritarianism.

Read the book “How Democracies Die.” We’re darned close [/quote]
