    Insist all you like, but we’re going to be seeing clips of that debate from now until November.

      Bruh, I was like, are you into indie Biden, cus thats some shoegaze right there. There was a solid 20 minutes of him just staring at the floor. Not to mention dude took like 10 days of debate prep for that.

        I keep wondering how many people actually watched the whole debate. It was horrifying.

        Still, I’m voting straight ticket D, no matter what.

    On Monday, the president called in to left-leaning MSNBC’s Morning Joe programme, laying down the gauntlet to critics to “challenge me at the convention” next month, or rally behind him against Trump.

    I think it’s good Biden is telling them to step up or back him.

    It’s basically the only choices right now.

        Do you have that segment in a format that doesn’t give money to a man-child?

    “I’m hearing from a lot of people who think he should get out, and I’m not getting a whole lot of ‘he should stay in,’” said one donor on the call, granted anonymity to speak candidly. “I’ve also had people tell me, ‘I’m not giving anymore.’”

    The longer it takes for Biden to realize he can’t win, the less time we have to get a replacement.

      The downballot consequences are what is really motivating the, frankly shocking, break that some big ass names in the party have shown (Schiff and Pelosi being the two biggest).

      Bidens not just shifting us into a Trump White house. He’s setting us up for a red-landslide the likes of which hasn’t happened since 1984. Schiff cares because he’s trying to get elected, and Biden is doing so poorly, that even ridiculously safe positions are coming up for grabs. Bidens doing so poorly, non-swing states are suddenly coming into play, so down ballot Democrats have good reason to panic.

          Trump is going to cut taxes for ultra rich people, it’s almost like they are pulling the strings. Nah, couldn’t be the billionaires.
