The biggest question for Biden is whether the damage is permanent. Many voters have not yet tuned into an election that’s still more than four months away.
Just anyone with more charisma than a bowl of cold oatmeal.
If nothing matters except beating trump, why arent we coalescing around a candidate Dem voters want so that we’ll get as much votes against trump as possible
The problem is “a candidate dem voters want” doesn’t have any obvious choices.
Like Harris isn’t that popular, but the optics of skipping over a black woman when the VP would typically be the heir apparent? You think Gavin Newsom would be a good choice? Californians don’t have a lot of good things to say about him right now. I haven’t seen a lot of other names floated.
It’s funny how some people go on and on about the importance of democracy except when primary elections don’t go their way, at which point either the DNC rigged everything, or the DNC needs to step in to ‘fix’ the wrong choice the primary voters made. Sometimes they offer both simultaneously, because fuck consistency.
This is false, the DNC has fought in court for the right to overrule the results of the primary. It was litigated in Wilding v. DNC Services Corporation.
Can you imagine what it would look like if they chose someone like Jon Stewart instead? How a debate like that would have gone? A guy can dream…
Jon Stewart is someone I would actually look forward to giving my vote.
Would he have to leave the Daily Show though?
No but he would only agree to working one day a week as POTUS.
I mean, he’s only on once a week… Lol. In fact, he wasn’t on this week, so far.
He was on live yesterday post debate
He was on a live show Thursday right after the debate.

Which candidate do you suggest, givesomefucks?
They have no ideas, they only know that they don’t like something
People who only dislike things are so fucking boring

The problem is that the DNC would never go for him or anyone like him, because he’s not a blatant neoliberal.
If they swap, it’ll be someone like Newsom.
Voters choose the candidate in the primary, not “the DNC”.

I wonder if their goal is to undermine America as a whole, stoke apathy and distrust, and produce a certain strategic outcome.

Court Concedes DNC Had the Right to Rig Primaries Against Sanders
I mean yea, but that’s not really fair to him. Being president seems like a terrible burden.
