    “Democrats in disarray” is really the only story American political journalists know how to write. If Biden wins in November, within a week there will be an article saying it’s bad for Democrats.

      No there are plenty of others writing other things. But ozma does not post those. In fact they almost never post anything positive about Biden or negative about anyone other than biden especially when it comes to politics. What they post it seems especially agenda driven which is why if i remember correctly they were previously banned for a while from politics here.

        This is a fair post though.

        Biden and his admin basically decieved the mainstream press about the severity of his aging. As one outlet put it, “hell hath no fury like a press corps decieved”

          Not really. It’s especially overblown. While I do have some small concern. The presidency is really about the people surrounding the president. And in that respect I am well satisfied. I’m not crazy about harris. But I think she can handle everything as well as Biden has been. And everyone else at all of the levels around them while not ideal are not outright corrupt and incompetent in the extreme.

          As soon as we finish 2024 people better start preparing for 2028 and everything in between. We actually have a chance to see some new blood running for the presidency finally. As all the Boomers find themselves aging out. Leaving just a few gen xers and millennials and maybe even a few z to take over

            Biden isn’t a boomer, he’s the generation before, silent IIRC. There’s a good chance you will have to choose between two boomers next election.

              That’s correct. I was speaking about elected office in general. Biden is late silent, borderline boomer. Regardless. The youngest of them is entering their 70s. It’s very unlikely it will be two boomers in 28. That’s another 4 years.
