I go to bed at like 8:30, but I should not be president

Also, whew, lemme tell you, one way to get blocked on here is to flood my mentions with "OH SO YOU HATE BIDEN/WANT TRUMP/YOU'RE TRYING TO DESTROY THE REPUBLIC" and so on because I posted a link to an article.

Look, idk what the right path forward is for that campaign and neither does anyone else. Screaming at strangers about it on the internet probably doesn't help.

But it's extra wild when the likely pivot would just be to swap in Harris, who would continue to have the exact same policies as Biden but without the burden of being a million years old.

Go make phone calls for the Biden campaign instead of yelling at internet strangers. It's more productive.

But here's the thing, and I'll say it as someone who monitors and analyzes media: the bad media coverage isn't going to let up. It's going to drive his poll numbers down and it's going to be relentless. There's blood in the water, and maybe it's not fair, but that's the reality right now.

The bad media coverage was NEVER going to let up, because the presumptive GOP nominee is demonstrably unable to do the job, is actively pro-fascism, and is showing more dementia every day. That means they can’t have their horserace, and mentioning Trump’s negatives isn’t “balanced.”

🤔However: Would you continue to stick with Biden even if the polls continue to show him losing to Trump in the #BattlegroundStates, by a margin outside of the standard error of measure, by the end of July? I will vote '🔵 No Matter Who' as I did in 2020 to try again to defeat 🔴💀🔴Herr Trumpfenfuhrer.

I will vote for whomever the Dems put up against the GOP. I think the “low information voters” might have a little trouble if the nominee is changed at this relatively late date, though.

Biden has little to no upside unless he uses his new #officialact powers - which he clearly states he won't. Change is risky, but so is "staying the course", 1 term loser GHW Bush's strategy.
