If the discussion is gonna be had best do it now before the conference, but post that, it’s fall in line or die alone.

That isn’t hyperbole, Project 2025 is very obviously a groundworking for death squads to round up dissidents and undesirables.

We can’t just think of what they’re telling us they want to do, we need to consider the things they somehow still felt like they had to leave out to avoid giving the whole game away.

They said same thing with Isreal and nothing will change post conference. As long as there are bad actors the disenfranchisement of American voters will continue until election day.

You do realize replacing Biden post primary is by definition an act of disenfranchisement of the voters right? Literally tossing out all the votes.

This conversation is only happening because of how seriously everyone who wasn’t on the Biden Hate train already anyways actually recognizes how serious pulling that lever is, and are raising the question anyways because Biden’s recent flubs have spooked everyonethat much.

While I don’t completely disagree with what you’re saying here, you are far overstating the nature of the primaries. By the time my state’s primary rolled around, every single candidate dropped out and endorsed Biden. It’s not really much of a vote if there is only one guy to vote for.

The primaries are dog shit and routinely fail to present candidates that accurately reflect the will of the people. People are now calling for Biden to drop out as a result of that.

I’m still voting for Biden for now, but this shit isn’t ever going to get better until we have elections that actually capture the will of the people.

A lot of people have a short memory. Biden’s verbal gaffes were well-known during his time as Obama’s VP, not even mentioning before that. If anything, he’s gotten better at speaking.

People should be paying attention to his actions and accomplishments as President. We have the last four years to look at, and while his handling of Israel leaves a lot to be desired, he’s made great strides in the areas of workers rights, climate, student loans, and inflation.

Calling his latest gaffes anything new is just buying into propaganda. I have yet to see any legitimate criticism over his health or ability to run an administration.

So spooked that you would let an authoritarian felon take office instead. Perfectly valid response.
