It’s not about convincing Trump, it’s about getting the Independents to vote.
Dems won with Biden in 2020, so they figured that he’d be fine in 2024.
If something worked for a long time, people are reluctant to try something new.
I myself was leery of Biden dropping out, and I was shocked by the Kamala surge.
I’m not talking Biden or Kamala or Trump or who needs to come out and vote, I’m talking about the way more progressive people act in general, they believe people who are harsh and disrespectful just need to be shown a better way because if progressives can be good people so can anyone else, just like bad people project unto others their own faults (if I can imagine myself doing X, it means everyone could do the same, the best example being all people who committed election fraud being Republicans when they’re the ones acusing the Democrats of doing it).
I don’t know why so many democrats think themselves into closed boxes like this. Biden was a very poor candidate from the beginning, and was one of the worst candidates chosen from the original primaries. He (and the democrats) nearly blew the 2020 election, and were only saved by Trump’s massive failures with COVID-19.
I mean, go back to Obama selecting this man and people hated the guy. I recall people ranting and pleading with Obama to pick someone else.
