NEW: Austin Democrat Lloyd Doggett becomes the first sitting member of Congress to call for Biden to drop out of the presidential race (via Matthew Choi, Texas Tribune)
I know you know but it gave us fucking Nixon, Ford and subsequent stagflation and global turmoil only for Jimmy Carter to take the blame for that entire period of shit so we could get to Reagan who has famously fucked our lives up longer than anyone could fucking imagine.
It’s self serving. If Biden loses, he’s the guy that said it first. If Biden doesn’t lose, he’ll suffer no love lost in his state for playing in to the trope. If they were to change candidates and win, he lead the new generation. If they change candidates and lose, “they did it too late to matter!”🤮
It’ll make for a few good tv ads in whatever election campaigns he has left and sadly that’s probably all he gives a shit about.
& you’re correct that he’s just a fucking moron.
