I know a lot of young people and POC that were strong Dem election staff. So many are ashamed of their prior support for Biden. Older Dems don't see that young Dems won't stand for our tax dollars going to genocide while we can't afford to feed, house, heal, and educate our own people in America.
He has no handle on Israel. Asking for a "pause" while handing over the company credit card to continue killing thousands of innocent civilians. Old Dems might not care but the new generation isn't blind.

Three pages and this seems to be the only comment on Biden's diminished mental capacity. Anyone with the misfortune of having a parent in this situation knows this only gets worse. While he is sometimes mentally sharp, he is just as likely to be incoherent and shuffling about like an old man. Why are Democrats afraid to state the obvious. No chance he can serve another full term? Bring on Newsome or someone else.

I would counter by asking why Republicans are afraid to acknowledge that Trump has in the past and is currently also showing signs of cognitive decline. There are tons of recent examples of him talking on camera and being incoherent or confused about where he is. Perhaps you haven't seen them if you only follow Fox or Newsmax, but I can assure you that they are real. Granted, Trump doesn't look as frail as Biden (probably because fatter old people just don't look as frail as thinner old people), but given that both are bound to have some defects due to age, most sane people are going to go with the guy who has more experience (Biden is probably the most experienced president we've ever had)--and who isn't actively undermining the constitution.
Blah blah blah. You should read the polls and what voters say in the NYT articles. The simple reality is that Biden's cognitive decline is a very different place than Turnip's. Turnip is wacky at times, but Biden is genuinely in cognitive decline. The vast majority of Americans agree - 71% say he is too old which is significantly higher than polling on Turnip's age.

He is not, in fact, "senile." Stop parroting that line. It's an especially stupid point since Biden's rival also has a track record of saying "dumb shit" and appearing at times to exhibit cognitive decline. I'd like to see how coherent YOU would be if you ran the world's most powerful country and shouldered the immense responsibility and stress of that job. My DH has been to several small meetings (40 people and under) where Biden has spoken at length without notes or a teleprompter and spoke clearly and with knowledgeably about the policy issue at hand. So I'm going to go with DH's assessment over yours.

I agree. Biden has really messed up with his response to Israel and there is no way to come back from it. That situation will only get worst. Ideally the republicans impeach, remove him from office and bar him from running/serving again. That would rally the democrats but remove Biden from the ticket.
Biden has not messed up the response to israel. The far left of the Democratic Party has lost its mind.
You mean one representative?
