    The amount that media is pushing the Biden out angle after 1 bad debate when anyone paying attention already knew he was soon destined for palliative is extremely suspicious. Even up here in Canada media jumped in with the rest on cue.

    Interested to see what DNC does, cause their strategy confuses me unless it really just is they want to lose/doesn’t matter.

      is extremely suspicious

      The only explanation I have is that there's been bad blood between the Biden administration and the media for a long time. About a year? About two years? And at the debate the media felt deceived and wondered "How did we not know he was this level of fucked up! How could they have lied to us for so long!" Above all else - the American media wants access. Trump understood that on a fundamental level. He'd say "the failing New York Times" but the Times and the rest of the media got oodles of access and they loved his reality tv presidency.

      It was a deal made in hell. He got to present himself as he wanted and they got access. If you make the media feel "in the loop" - you can own them. It's been totally forgotten but Trump made an emergency trip to Walter Reed Medical Center and then he literally said something crazy like "I was not treated for mini-strokes." What the ever-loving fuck. And the media kept repeating his lies as facts and did not investigate that at all. I don't even remember what the "official" reason was. Maybe there wasn't one?

      their strategy confuses me

      Every time we tell gramps he has to go into an old folks home he gets mad and yells - and we get scared. So we don't know what to do.

      In all seriousness - I don't understand the dem machine at all. Not even a little bit. His supporters want him to drop out. The media smells blood in the water and they are really working hard to force him out. Members of his own party are saying loudly in private they want him to drop out. Some representatives are starting to say publicly say they want him to drop out. Many powerful people in the donor class want him to drop out. Even celebs like Ashley Judd want him to drop out.

      This sort of situation is simple. You support your guy or you refuse to speak to the media or you say you want him to drop out. I think Michael Bennet's position is typical dem idiocy. Saying he "cannot win" non-anonymously but not saying he should drop out is monstrously stupid.

      "We are stuck with a loser!"

      "So does that mean you're asking him to drop out?"

      "Heavens no! That's his choice!"

      BREAKING: Democratic Senator Michael Bennet tells @kaitlancollins that President Biden cannot win the 2024 election.

        i feel like it's far more choreographed than this.. they got him elected in the first place. they're all on the same team.

        they want to pull a surprise against Trump and give him the least amount of time possible to denigrate whatever other weak Democrat they're going to nominate, and at this point it's so easy to pour the hate on Joe, which will get the dipshit libs desperate to vote for anyone else blindly

    I'd settle for him dropping dead.

    Um acktually sweaty, don't you know that if they want him to drop out, they are by definition, not his supporters? Therefore their opinion shouldn't count and they're actually Trump supporters if they don't blindly devote their lives to Biden? :smuglord:
