Jackson 🥥🌴🏳️‍🌈: and the "magic" is: biden releases his delegates and endorses her. she wins with no drama on the first ballot at the convention. not hard.

Blocked.

Why? Because you want someone else to run? What about the actual voters (nor donors, journalists, and pundits, but the millions who voted FOR Biden)? Why do you believe they no longer matter? Have you joined MAGA in believing only "certain" people should have a say in who runs things??

That’s a bad take. There are also millions of us voters who voted against Trump, not for Biden and what we fear is Trump returning to power and the best way to prevent that is someone else in the top of the ticket. Biden will loose, someone else will at least have a chance.

Who voted "against Trump" in the Dem primary?

me. my vote for Biden in the 2024 primary was a vote for "a candidate who is up to the job of defeating Trump and then being president for 4 more years." I believed that at the time. I no longer do and want him to step down.

Well, you're in the minority, 66% of Dem voters don't want Biden to step down. So why should we override the Popular Will?

according to one poll from 6 days ago, I am in the minority of Dems, though the majority of independents already agreed with me in that poll. a majority of Dems in that poll also agreed with me that Biden is too old. minds may continue to change about this as people evaluate btw now and convention.

Poll from July 5th.

86% of Democrats say they would vote for Biden, WSJ poll findswww.reuters.com Eighty-six percent of Democrats said they would vote for U.S. President Joe Biden in a match up against former President Donald Trump in November, a Wall Street Journal poll found.

And here's one from July 2020.

Democrats are professional pants pissers. Every. Fucking. Cycle. It's the same old fear and loathing.

I'm sure calling us bedwetters and pants pissers will convince us we're not seeing what we're seeing. great strategy. 👍

No. It won't. But history and evidence also doesn't seem to work. And your "strategy" seems to involve a TBD candidate who will unite the party. It's called magical thinking.

her name is kamala harris. she is the vice president. it is her job to be ready to replace joe biden.

and the "magic" is: biden releases his delegates and endorses her. she wins with no drama on the first ballot at the convention. not hard.

Oh, you mean the Biden who has said repeatedly he's not stepping down?? That Biden?

yes, the Biden who is defiantly putting his ego above his country. that Biden. I'm pushing hard for him to drop out until either he does or he leaves the convention as the nominee. So are a bunch of other people. You can tell us to sit down and shut up all you want. But we saw what we saw.

Magical thinking. You wanting him to drop out does not mean he's putting his ego above the country if he doesn't bend to your will. Think you'd better take a look at your own ego at this point.

Listen, I'm not saying it WILL NOT happen, but I am saying there isn't any evidence (currently or historically) that this WILL happen. The delegate math alone is complex to throw it to a 2nd round (all electors that Biden won are pledged to him - and they are chosen for loyalty after 2016).

But ... if it goes a 2nd round, the delegate math gets much, much harder.

And I don't think the "Harris will step in" folks have fully taken the disgusting tour of misogyny and racism (misogynoir). Just look at 2016: Clinton (not my primary choice!), had experience, well thought out policy, all the donors, etc. and lost to a racist POS who didn't know he had to hire staff
