absolute horseshit to call for a nominating process speedrun instead of saying he should resign and Harris should run. this is just “don’t blame me if we lose”, fundamentally unserious
NEW: Austin Democrat Lloyd Doggett becomes the first sitting member of Congress to call for Biden to drop out of the presidential race (via Matthew Choi, Texas Tribune)
I don't think he should drop out OR resign, but if it really has to come to that, resignation is absolutely the way to go. Don't play it as quitting, play it as a noble inspiring Passing of the Torch in a big public ceremony with Obama and Pelosi and like Taylor Swift or whatever. Go big.
Give Kamala a huge push as a Archetypal American Story, the struggle of women and of Black folks and etc etc. And also be like "hell yeah she was a fucking cop too" just to irritate the usual suspects lol.
Then you wait a week until the good headlines start to trail off and you do a ANOTHER big splashy event for the VP pick. Somebody else inspiring! Maybe Taylor Swift!
...shit, I'm talking myself into this. No, Biden should not resign unless he really IS that out of it. Which I doubt.
