It's great that this will be how he is remembered. He deserves worse but it's something.
Thinkin about the Le Guin line about how every ruling class, every ruling ideology, has been destined to completely and utterly humiliate itself before it dies
I just don't understand the pro-Democrat party crowd's strategy. Why do they insist on keeping Biden as the Democrat candidate when that clown keeps nuking it's own odds of winning more and more everyday with his stupid shenanigans? If the peoples who keep berating everyone to vote for Biden see Trump as some sort of ultimate threat, why do they insist on using a candidate that even they admit is hated by most of his own voter base against Trump? That sound like a terrible strategy to me. Shouldn't they be mad at the Democrat party for taking such risk by insisting on a candidate so widely despised? Why don't they call for a candidate that is actually likely to beat Trump? Why do they keep berating the folks who have made it clear that they won't be voting for Biden under any circumstances when the over 60% of the Americans who don't participate in politics are right there?
Because Biden is the consensus candidate of party bosses: he's pro-genocide, militarist to the core and will not upset the bipartisan consensus. If he drops out, someone actually decent might get nominated. You can't have that.
Don't disagree that he's embarrassingly old, but the gaffes were always part of the deal with Biden, going back to the 1990s.
Yeah but he's managed to make the conversation about his fitness to govern rather than Trumps. That's quite a feat.
Confusing your own VP for the opposition party’s candidate is not a gaffe.
To call Zelenskyy “President Putin” at that critical moment was offensive and totally unacceptable.
Calling Kamala “Vice President Trump” is kind of hilarious though.
Both of these together paint a troubling picture. Why is Biden confusing people who are supposed to be his closest allies with those who are considered to be his bitter rivals? This was supposed to be his big press conference where he proves he’s still mentally fit to be president, and he totally blew it. Somebody get him outta there, Biden isn’t fit to be president and the sooner we can admit that and move on the better it will be for this country. The gaslighting in full denial of this is incredibly dangerous, and likely driven by whoever it is that’s actually in charge and wants to stay that way (all signs point to Jill Biden, who last I checked was not elected president.)
Apparently Biden has not had a full cabinet meeting since last year. These are the people who can invoke 25th amendment on him, and it’s looking extremely suspicious all of a sudden that he’s been avoiding them, and for such an insanely long period of time too!
For those of us who have had to support an elder family member through times of mental decline, the condition is extremely apparent now, and the administration can no longer hide it. Elders often resist or get angry when confronted about necessary changes, but it’s for their own good. In this case, it’s also so we can ward off a fascist takeover of the US. Come on dem leadership, it’s time to actually be the adults in the room and handle this.

I think it was funnier
Run Harris. Run Newsom. Run Obama. Run Kennedy. Hell, run Gore.
There's so many options here. This is the DNC's election to lose.
I assume that's who they mean, since Barack has already had two terms and his kids aren't old enough.
Technically they could run Barack Obama as the VP and Biden as President with Biden openly saying he will resign when elected.
Do you have a pulse and aren't a fascist? Probably. The bar is exceptionally low here.
crap. ever since i was a little kid i dreamed of being a fascist. dream = shattered :(
It's ok, be a pedophile and lie endlessly and you can still get into office apparently.
dream = restored!!!!
have any advice for getting started in those options?
Every single one of them will lose to Trump. The DNC has sstematically failed
If I was trying to throw the election, I really can't think of what I'd be doing differently right now.
There's probably more one can do but Biden is clearly struggling to think clearly. It's kinda standard now but ancient Dems clinging to power instead of retiring.
