sure he's a terrible candidate that is utterly unsuited to the task at hand, risking everything for his ego, and completely convinced only he can run the world, but at least he didn't forget where he was in the middle of the interview
i get why this pisses people off--this pisses me off too!--but it's not a sign of cognitive decline? idgi. are people really just now grasping that joe biden has failed to appreciate the threat of trump/the right/the supreme court?

hey man this is what I said in 2019 but we lost that argument. idk what to tell you, the primaries are over and he cruised. the opportunity to replace him passed unless he’s legitimately medically incapable or decides he doesn’t want to 🤷‍♂️

the latter is what happens when the entire party apparatus abandons him, and honestly that will go most of the way towards bringing about the former

i mean this conversation started with a reflection that the drop out crew didn't get any fodder from the interview, when instead a whole new dropout crew formed just from getting pissed at his answers

maybe! i might be wrong. and if i am, i hope to god i'm wrong about how risky and dangerous swapping nominees will be

oh its a godawful risk but its less risky that this bullshit for the next 4 months straight. and after tonight we now know it would only be to assuage one elderly man's incredible ego under the best case circumstances

anyway tryign to do a primary at this stage would be a cluster fuck for a lot of reasons including the FEC but slotting Harris in would be considerably less so, however this depends on Biden actually being willing to listen to anybody about anything unfortunately

good news! the democratic party can run anyone they like whether they hold a primary or not

however: if they do it without biden's blessing, the chaos will turn off middle America
