First Wordle Problems: Oh, of course. Those are just political fanfiction. It happens every four years because political writers want it to someday happen SO BADLY. But in a case like this year's, how would that even happen? Like, there would have to be a floor vote to release the Biden delegates or something?

All of this is to say that if it’s Biden I’m 1000% on board. Harris, same, my dog, same. Don’t care. Not letting perfect be the enemy of stopping our democracy from turn into a monarchy.

Ok what I really need right now is a no-bullshit, non-hysterical breakdown of our options for Dem president candidate this November. No sense in bed wetting or pointing fingers. What is the precedent. I’m sure somebody smarter than me has written the definitive guide so please link me to it, thx 🙏🏻

I think if it's anyone other than Biden, and "anyone" pretty much 99.999999% has to be Harris, it *has* to be Biden that initiates it. He'd have to affirmatively step down and pass the torch as opposed to being forcibly removed

Well, sure. I'm not sure there IS a mechanism to "forcibly remove" him. This is up to him and always has been.

I'm mainly addressing the "contested convention" fantasies that would only result in Democrats eating each other alive

Like, I haven't even read anything explaining how this would somehow be made to happen, because it's so ridiculous on its face.
