A strong majority of Americans think Trump should drop out of the 2024 presidential race because of his second indictment involving his alleged "willful" possession of classified documents, according to a poll by the Marist institute of Public Opinion.

Some Dems want Biden to drop out because he's old and caught a cold. But Trump staying in the race after he stole (and sold?) national secrets, tried to overthrow the election results, had a mod storm Congress in a coup attempt, and has been convicted of 34 felonies, that's A-OK.
I feel like the Dems are doing a premature, knee-jerk "Al Franken" on Biden, as if the last three years don't count. But I think they'll come around. Biden is willing to fight Trump to his last breath, and he beat Trump before. That should count for something.
I feel like Jeff Zeintz has been concealing how badly Biden has deteriorated in the past 6 months & is puppet mastering him the same way Feinstien's staff did w/ her. Pretending Biden is fine is not a winning strategy. I will vote for whichever Dem is against trump but Biden can't campaign.
I agree Biden is more frail than they admit. Presidency does it to everybody but Trump. It didn't wear on him because he never did it; his progressing dementia is his downfall. Biden's health is definitely a concern. But to admit it and pull out now hands the WH to Trump. We can't.
I think if Harris is handed the batton & comes out with an aggressive press schedule & a debate where she constantly talks about women's rights & this extreme right activist court she will win in a landslide. I say this as someone who doesn't really like her.
Super engaged voters would vote for Biden's corpse to stop trump, but low propensity, low information voters are just seeing deceptively edited tiktoks of Biden at the debate & they won't vote for that.
I 100% believe that if Harris ran, the usual suspects who are currently yelling about Biden's performance would wait a whole day before pivoting back to the complaints about Harris they yammered about in 2020 and 2021.
Look, I can't stand Harris, but if she got on the debate stage & ripped trump apart & called him a criminal, rapist - people would be very excited to vote for her.
The talking heads are in the bucket for trump already, so who cares about them.
It could work if Biden says he's ready to step aside. Otherwise, Harris will be accused of sabotaging him out of ambition yada, yada. She's got the balls of steel to win it, definitely. I'd like to see a voice coach rid her of the nasally whine that makes her sound weak.
It's all predicated by Biden making the decision to hand off the her, no one should appear to force him. She's actually been doing much better public speaking since Dobbs,she has the legal background to effectively communicate how radical this court is.
