Of course it's the guy who represents LBJ's disctrict. How did that work out for the Democrats in 1968?

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.

So what kind of fucking idiot would suggest this course of action? Lloyd is outing himself as a dumbass of the highest order.

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!”🤮

Nobody is following Lloyd Doggett anywhere, and he knows it. He's 77 years old!

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.

Doggett was 21 at the time, he might have even been there, he got married the following year. bsky.app/profile/midn...
Lloyd Doggett is either trying to form The Suicide Squad, or maybe the 77 year old is just having a senior moment.
