Who says I'm dropping out. That's malarkey pal.

Thursday night’s debate was, and I don’t say this lightly, a disaster without any conceivable parallel in modern American political history for President Joe Biden, the Democratic Party, and anyone who cares about the future of our flawed but vital democracy. The president’s performance on CNN was nightmarishly confused and worrisome. And unless he wants to be buried right next to Ruth Bader Ginsburg in a tiny cemetery full of people who invited widespread calamity because they did not know when to quit, he needs to drop out of this race immediately.

If Biden were to resign, making Vice President Kamala Harris the president, it would instantly resolve any looming debate about what would happen at the Chicago convention in August. A President Harris would have six weeks to build momentum, shore up the party’s coalition, and lean into the inherent gravitas of the presidency. Freed from the constraints of the vice presidency, she might just prove a lot of doubters wrong about her political skills. If Harris were even a teeny-tiny bit more popular, there wouldn’t be any question about anointing her whatsoever, and it is worth noting that her net disapproval is now lower than either Trump’s or Biden’s, according to FiveThirtyEight.
Making Harris the president wouldn’t turn her into the nominee by acclamation, but it would be very hard for anyone else to compete with her. Biden’s delegates would be released, and given that they are loyalists, most of them would likely do whatever he says. If he said, “Kamala Harris is now the president and the presumptive nominee; let’s unite around her,” that’s what would happen, without question. It is truly difficult to see how she could do any worse than Biden at this point.

Brandon needs to hang in there!
Run Joe Run!
You know, the thing!
Oh yes, please. 4 months of Kamala going cross country at events everywhere would really shore up her support and show everybody exactly what kind of woman she is!!!!!
/s
I only care about getting Trump in there. I’m sure they haven’t let Joe make decisions for quite a long time.
I’d rather keep Biden’s rotting corpse on the ballot.
But democrats are a nasty bunch. If they get the chance, they would euthenize Joe.
It was such a disaster the media didn’t wait for their talking points this morning.
LOL! Whoreizontal Heels up Harris in the White House. How low can we go?
The idea!
You almost have to wonder if the Democrats set up Biden to fail, all the drugs they’ve given him in the past to wake him up either didn’t work or were not used this time.
With so much time to go until election day, you have to wonder if the Democrats who wanted to move on from Biden who is refusing to leave gracefully, put him out there knowing it would be a disaster, force him out and get a newer younger Democrat to run, they would then draw all the remaining media coverage and energy.
We MUST get behind our president and support him any way we can. Let’s go Brandon!
Another moron who cares nothing about the country. only holding on to power. Harris is just as unfit to run the country, just in different ways. Biden is an idiot and senile, Harris is an idiot.
The left are delusional and their thirst for power led us here and nothing they can say or do will change my mind that they dont give a rats ass about the country - they only want power and they’re willing to destroy the country to get it, keep it and make that power permanent. Democrats are the enemy.
Biden needs to resign today.
Who says I'm dropping out. That's malarkey pal.
The heir apparent is obviously Kamala, so they better not try to end run her.
Here’s a few problems.
1) This is only new to a small subsection of the populace because of the debate. The press has known this for 2-3 years and covered for him. If anyone is guilty of malfeasance, it is them. The time for them to contact the Democrat leaders was 2-3 years ago.
2) Biden’s ego will not let him drop out.
Imagine your disappointment, Trump winning and all. After all the corrupt court cases and flat out election interference you never-Trump freaks cheered on, Trump is still standing.
You know that panic reigns when the Dims are advocating for Cackles.
now confirmed.. Slate is a MEGA MAGA DEEP FAKE!
They are in the tank for Trump!
We have been told FOR MONTHS for people closest that know, Joe is Top of his game.
ONLY he can save our democracy and beat DJT!
Dems MUST support Joe!
On every occasion she had to demonstrate her ‘ability’, she failed and failed miserably. She put nothing into her VP spot and has nothing to go on into the future. Kamala doesn't have (never HAD) anything to recommend her to the vice Presidency ... and certainly has nothing at all to recommend her to the Presidency!
It's crazy how, given the many truly capable minority politicians in the US, Liberals routinely select the least capable and the MOST corrupt!
Of course, the problem with Newsom is that he has destroyed California. But since he did so with the full backing and support of the left, Democrats nation-wide would still vote for him.
