There are "change" elections and there are "please don't fuck my life up" elections and I think 2024 is definitely in the latter category and if Biden really isn't getting hurt by the bad debate performance, that's why.
my pitch to undecided voters: extremely old and weary Joe Brandon seeing the promised land (country where you don't have to hear about Donald Trump every day) even though he won't live long enough to get there himself:
Anyway I think the danger for swapping Harris or someone else in is that (if you are a low info voter) you can observe that Biden is currently President and your life is not getting fucked up, whereas who knows what another Dem you know nothing about would do bsky.app/profile/mtsw...

My biggest frustration with the calls for Biden to step down is the utter lack of consideration for who steps in to replace him, how that all works, and the prospect of launching a national presidential campaign with four months left.
tbf the latter 2 points aren't really for the general public to figure out how it would work, they don't have the expertise or knowledge to put together that type of plan. The 1st point though definitely, there needs to be something stronger than "idk someone else"
