Fuck you Biden. You narcissistic asshole.
This isn’t going to end well. He needs to fuck off.
Joe Biden is on track to win. Anyone else LOSES.
Copium
Everything else aside, I really dislike it when I read a shitty, low-effort reply like this one.
If he’s in the general, I’ll vote for Biden’s head in a jar if it comes to that, but this is starting to have some real Hillary 2016 vibes about it. There are a whole lot of dipshits out there that think they are more or less the same because they are both old white guys, which is just Peak Stupid, but there you have it.
I think someone else given the chance, like Gavin Newsom, would build a brand in time for the fall. They’d have to much free press as a consequence of being chosen and if we get someone that is a real GD fighter for Americans they’d do well, IMHO.
He’s going to give it his all, but also he’s going to make sure that he gets enough sleep and avoid scheduling events past 8 pm.
I don’t see a problem with this. Your definition of “giving it all” would mean him collapsing at some point. That’s not giving it all, if the goal is to serve the American people.
Dude, if he was a firefighter and said the same thing, what would you’re answer be? If there is a fire after 8 pm then you are up fighting the fire. Same with a nurse on call, an air traffic controller, etc. This is a requirement of the most powerful position on earth making decisions that literally impact all of humanity and the fate of western democracy.
If he can’t do it he shouldn’t be running. Go be a prof or join a corporate board or something if you want a 9-5 and a stable bed time. The president of the United States needs to be able to operate on very little sleep and past 8 pm because this is the fucking real world…
Ok, sure, sure, but at this point, that’s all we got. Give it all (then die and set the political landscape back to Trump-era bullshit), or recognize your limits and respect them in order to do the job as best as you can.
What should we be doing different that would NOT give Trump the presidency? Do tell, please. I’d love to be wrong.
Unironically I absolutely believe that pacing yourself properly is the only way to actually “give it your all”. Unless you want him to load up on stimulants of questionable legality, but those might actually kill him before election night.
Yes, the campaigning equivalent of a slow shuffle is realistically what “giving his all” means for Biden at this point. The problem is his insistence that this is also better than what anyone else could possibly do.
I agree with you, but at the same time I can’t think of any other candidate that would both (1) have enough name recognition to motivate semi-apathetic democrats to vote, and (2) not rile up the semi-apathetic bigots into counter-voting.
According to the gossip, Biden has said that if he does choose to step down, he’ll promote Harris. I don’t think Democrats will have much of a problem supporting Harris, but I’m concerned being a woman of color will motivate a lot of bigots into a counter-vote when they might have otherwise stayed home. The next best pick might be Buttigieg, but then you get the homophobic bigots coming out for the counter-vote. Newsom might be the next best after that, but then you have the anti-California lunatics coming out to counter-vote him.
As much as I don’t want to cater to bigots, I think the stakes are just too high here. If it were a campaign against Mitt Romney then I wouldn’t think twice about running any of these people, but when we’re on a razor’s edge against America spiraling into a fascist dictatorship, every risk needs to be accounted for.
Obviously Biden should’ve declared back in August that he wouldn’t run for reelection so the Democrats could run a primary and build up someone to have name recognition and a positive image, but now it’s too late for that 🤷♂️
No, I want him to make the biggest sacrifice he can make. Give up his ego and step down.
Official Act to lockup the fascists as domestic terrorists, then bow out of the race.
No you fucking didn’t.
Giving it your all would preclude doing things that decrease the number of votes you’re going to get, such as ending the rent moratorium, refusing to pack the court to protect Roe (because that would make it political lmao), trying to close the border, and facilitating a genocide.
You wanna be able to say you gave it your all? Drone strike the SCOTUS and use every means at your disposal to keep the fascists out of power.
