You can argue that it’s not a good idea for Biden to withdraw. That doesnt make people who think the opposite either Russian operatives or ignorant of election law. It just does not.

They have a different opinion? I mean, for the love of God - there are numerous Democrat politicians who are calling for a replacement. It’s fucking childish to say all of those people are either Russians or ignorant of electorial law. I mean, grow up!

I don’t understand how anyone who understands election law can seriously be suggesting a replacement.

For example, a new Democratic candidate wouldn’t be eligible to be on the ballot in Ohio. It would be just handing a state to Trump.

Does that make Biden a Russian disinformation agent for blowing the debate?

No, it just makes him an old guy with a lifelong speech impediment. Just like Trump is an old guy who is a lying rapist.

It’s a really hard choice.

Not being able to speak for ages and not being able to finish this sentences is not a speech impediment.

But yes, Trump is absolutely the worst. I doubt there’s ever been a more venal, revolting president
