    It’s not exactly Biden’s fault that he’s being propped up and foisted upon us by the establishment, but they really picked a poor candidate for an election that is supposedly the most important one of our lives. Almost like the DNC doesn’t mind losing.

    Consider AZ, where a dem senate candidate is up in polling, and Biden is down by like 12 points. For that matter, polls show him losing in every swing state, which is where it matters due to electoral college bs. Or just the fact that he is now frequently confusing things he did as vice president with things he’s done as president, while publicly speaking. He even still gets confused about his son dying in war, which didn’t happen…Beau died at home from a brain aneurysm.

    For the good of the nation, we need a few more degrees of separation between “good enough,” and one foot in the grave.

      they really picked

      You mean the voters picked. By voting for him. Because they did that. They voted for Hillary too. By voting. For the candidate they genuinely wanted more or at least were least unenthusiastic about.

        What voters? There was no primary election (in good faith).

        Hillary who? Is she friends with Debbie Wasserman Schultz?

          “Stop the steal!”

          “Stop counting black low information voters!”

          “Let’s do the very very socialist thing of counting donations instead of ballots, thereby inaugurating an actual donor class oligarchy! By the way have I told you about my issues with the establishment being complicit in donor class influence over public policy?”

            Well the first two are abhorrent, but you’re onto something with that last one. At least it’d be honest.

        It’s okay to admit you don’t understand how primaries work.

        Just say it.
