    Why? Because he won before? There’s not a single other person that could run? If this is the case we already have no democracy, let whoever win, it’s all fucked.

        Then we’re basically fucked.

        Biden barely won in 2020, and he’s less popular (even more unpopular?) than ever.

        He pissed off the dem-immigrantion voters, pissed off the Muslim voters.

        Then there’s the whole bullshit with Trump. I mean it took them 2.5+ years just to get some of the most classified/secret documents the us gov has, back. And they’re still missing some. He’s done nothing to stop the rise of fascism in this country and he’s running on doing just that.

        I’d say FDR would knock it out of the damned park if we actually wanna start digging up graves to say Biden is better than everyone else.

        I respect the guy, I’m gonna vote for him if he’s top of the ticket, but this is bordering on sycophanty.

    • in the time remaining before the election.

    There were plenty of better choices if he had stepped down last year.

    Biden himself said there were about 50 other democrats who could beat Trump, he just thinks he’s the best man for the job right now.

        No question? All evidence points to him losing currently. I have no idea where you are getting this idea.

        That’s the real hard pill to swallow.

          If all the evidence were truly pointing to Biden losing in November, Democratic voters would be calling for a new nominee en masse in order to protect human rights, and that simply isn’t happening.

            Very few people are informed and engaged enough to see the writing here. The fact that many in the pro-Biden media and even in the Democratic Party have called for him to step aside is pretty telling. That’s definitely not normal.

              Well if that’s the case I’d wish there was a way to inform people of that fairly straightforward fact.

    “If someone does something once, that means they will always have that ability, even if evidence indicates that they have lost that ability.” I think we can bring a little more critical thinking to bear on this question.

        You did though. And you already know that you did. If you didn’t, you would have clarified. If this were about anything other than stirring up rage over a “hot take” that you don’t even believe in, you’d actually defend or expand on your position.

    You are just stating that, what is your reasoning?

    Also, how do you think this is a meme, if you honestly think this?

    I don’t know if I agree since he’s lost the open confidence of his party, but I’m definitely certain that, if he stays in, he’s literally the best person to vote for in the race and I will cross hell and high fucking water to vote for him and convince all my friends and family to do likewise, regardless of how they feel about Biden as an individual.
