Biden is just not a good candidate. Swap him out. Pull some one off the back benches if you need to.
Only requirements are that they are breathing, and are eight years younger than normal retirement age, and they’ll likely be doing better than Biden is rn.
Oh you mean all of those people on the back bench that Biden beat once already?
The people that, unlike Biden, have never beaten Trump in an election?
The people who aren’t the incumbent president when history shows a very clear pattern of voters choosing to re-elect incumbents?
I mean come on, Biden didn’t win the democratic nomination. It was handed to him on super-Tuesday. Bloomberg was just vomiting money to get easy media attention and then just dropped out. Elizabeth Warren was polling well then suddenly backed out, and all the super-delegates (something that shouldn’t exist) had pledged their votes well before the actual convention. Then all that was left was Bernie who got smoked because there was no time to recover
Sure you could argue that’s savvy political maneuvering which is what you want in a president but my point is that Biden didn’t successfully campaign as much as he let other people do it and then got their support. Something he can’t repeat as an incumbent
Before anyone says anything, I’m voting for him, I’m just trying to avoid revisionist history
Oh you mean all of those people on the back bench that Biden beat once already
So? Those people he beat keep sitting on the bench because candidates like Biden can’t permanently address the Republican party. You can either hand off the reigns to a smaller faction of the Democrat party or lose their votes. Make a choice.
Gretchen Whitmer.
Jay Inslee.
Ron Wyden or Jeff Merkley
Fuck even Gavin fucking shit in my mouth Newsom.
Thats just the west coast.
Plenty of blue governors and senators from safe blue states that can do this.
Also, we can look outside of government. I’m very serious that a Jon Stewart run would EASILY beat trump, and he’d be far better on the middle east.
