[SteveSBrickNJ]

Biden has lost support from many people who voted for him in the past.
He is getting up there in age.
Here are a couple of sites I'd like to share...

Biden 2024? Most Democrats say no thank you: AP-NORC poll

A majority of Democrats now think one term is plenty for President Joe Biden, despite his insistence that he plans to seek reelection in 2024. While Biden has trumpeted his legislative victories and ability to govern, the poll suggests relatively few U.S. adults give him high marks on either...

WHAT DO ANY OF YOU THINK?
IS THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY BEST SERVED BY HAVING PRESIDENT BIDEN RUN FOR ANOTHER TERM OR WOULD A DIFFERENT CANDIDATE BE BETTER?

It's common sense that if Biden isn't well enough mentally to run for re-election he has no business being President.

Common sense say a brain damaged narcissist like Trump shouldn’t run for president. Yet you worship him.

 

[Incumbent]

It looks like you are using the Harris strategy of addressing why you acted like you didn't know Biden was in cognitive decline for 3.5 years...ignoring the question.

Of course you see it that way because you’ve ignored Trump’s major character flaws and cognitive deficiencies for far longer.

Biden has been a competent and capable president through difficult times. Trump is a crass, mentally impaired jack*** who surrounds himself with dangerous people and appeals to the worst of human impulses.

Common sense is not highly rated.

I didn't see in his step down from the campaign letter him saying anything about him not being well enough mentally.

So maybe you ought to take that idea back to the drawing board..

 

[Incumbent]

It's common sense that if Biden isn't well enough mentally to run for re-election he has no business being President.

Or he accepted that another candidate may have a better chance to win. Or he has developed his own concerns whether he has the will and stamina to serve another four years. Or he doesn’t think he can forge ahead at odds with major donors. It’s another in a never ending stream of Republican BS narratives that Biden must now step down from office. Especially when these same dolts support the big sack of rambling dip**** that is Donald Trump.

Or he just can’t handle running the country and running g for reelection at the same time.

Dude, it's common sense. Everyone knows what his mental state his is after the debate.

You trying to deflect and blame Republicans is classic.

These early Republican talking points are weak imo and probably not very effective outside of the circle jerk.

The one that has me going... Scott Jennings on CNN...

"How do we know Biden signed that letter? How do we know he wrote it? Where is he?"

And his first try at a demeaning nickname last night was also extremely weak. ‘Laughing Kamala’ where he mispronounces Kamala. This is going to be tough for him, IMO.

Yeah I saw that. He just sounded stupid for most of that.

Dude, did you listen to Trump ramble about Afghanistan, some man and his home, and wives in the RNC? Classic Trump when he goes off teleprompter and nobody has a clue what the **** he’s talking about.

Biden is out now. Trump is still in.

Blame Republicans about Biden? Nah.

Republicans have mountains of blame for Trump. Just keep bowing to declining, demented Donnie the convicted felon.

I understand why they did it, but this shows the whole Democrats are protecting democracy schtick is a huge load of crap. The most powerful Democrats pressured Biden to drop out. They subverted the will of their voters and the elites got their way. It looks like that might have been Pelosi.

Would this be considered a coup by the current Democrat definition?

Nonsense. MAGA Republicans tried to violently stop the transition of power. They are anti-democracy. If they cared about democracy, they wouldn’t support Trump. Meanwhile the Democratic candidate was faltering and Democrats knew the threat to Democracy was too great, so they advocated for a change. Our leader made the noble decision to allow another candidate to vie for the presidency democratically.

 

[Lapaz]

I disagree. It points out that the saving democracy was the empty rhetoric and this shows that to be the case.

Biden got enough votes to be the nominee. He got pushed out by the Democrat elites.


Right, there wasn't a legitimate primary process and Democrat voters weren't given another choice besides Biden eventhough many people were questioning if he should run again because of his age.

What you just described was the elites getting to pick who Democrat voters could elect for President and there was no choice for the voters.

Any Republican that supports Trump has no credibility on the topic of the legal Democratic process of power transition. Fix your party’s authoritarian fixation, then you’ll have some cred.

You guys let the elites make sure nobody ran against Biden and now the elites are overriding the will of the Democrat voters. That's not supporting democracy. That's the elites picking the nominee.

Nobel decision? He didn't want to drop out. Pelosi seemed to be the one who convinced him to drop out.

The absolute gall it takes to support someone who refused (for the first time in US history no less) to concede power and participate in a peaceful transfer of power after losing an election, and then turn around and criticize the Democratic Party for an internal candidate dropping out before the convention is completely mind-boggling. Just a complete lack of any self-awareness at all.

Yo dawg, we’re the Democrat voters and we’re telling you it’s what we wanted, lol.

 

[LA - L.A.]

So the members of the Congressional Black and Hispanic caucuses calling on him to step aside are sellouts too? Just want to be sure.

This is what I said that you responded to with the above, "The rich white male donors trying to bully Biden into stepping down will never support him. Never."

What you said has nothing to do with what I said.
