They don't know what they fuck they're doing. They're just reacting. Most of these people demonstrably don't know shit and I don't think they're fit to run a corner store.

I think I am modestly pro Biden dropping out in favor of Harris but if this is the shit they have planned then Biden needs to stay put because this will be a disaster.
