    Hmm, Jon Stewart has a lot of influence, like it or not. If he can get behind a movement to get Joe Biden to…

    Stewart also noted he was not calling on Biden to step out of the race, but asked if Democrats could “open up” a larger conversation about their candidate.

    Well, shit. We’re stuck with Joe, aren’t we?

      He’s saying the bare minimum is an honest discussion and evaluation of Biden.

      We’re not even getting that, were getting “buckle up buckaroos”

      And being gaslight about valid doubts about an 81 year who just set the record for oldest US president ever is fit to go back to back…

          No they didn’t. There were no primaries and no Democrat dared challenge Biden lest they face the party’s wrath.

      We were stuck with him a year ago. Unless you can turn back time and install ranked choice voting before primaries.

      Thinking otherwise is delulu.
