He's always doing "a silly," 100 Palestinians were murdered yesterday. His mental capacity is night and day different from 2020, which was already night and day from 2008/2012.

Even if the majority want him to stay (which is wrong for now), there are still a huge number of people disengaged by him. Do you think swapping him out would hurt the DNCs chances?

Yes, I do think that. There will be chaos, infighting and accusations of anti-democratic behavior.

Which might be moot, given the events yesterday.

Why would it be "anti-democratic behavior" if the majority want him to step down?

It's even worse now that Trump pulled the best PR of his life yesterday.

Because the primaries are over. The rest is polling which is a private exercise, not even a semblance of oversight. The democrats had a chance to speak and they spoke 90% in favor of Biden. There is no do-overs in the process.

Take a look at the UK and post-brexit remorse. Sucks, but once you vote you accept the consequences.

Gotcha, so the will of the people doesn't matter to you, optics does. Can't think of a more worthless way to view politics, to he honest.

The will of the people has been heard in the democratic process. The people chose Biden when it was time to choose. If the will of the people doesn't matter to you (or whatever CNN says about the last poll is more important than election results) I can't think of a more worthless way to view politics...

The people didn't have anyone else to choose in many instances, and not every state had a primary. The DNC basically skipped the process. The will of the people is important, that's why I want the genocide to stop and Biden to be swapped out.

If you again care more about making sure the genocide continues and harp on people for not being as willing as you to support genocide, then you may be a monster.

I'd like universal basic income and a green new deal too, but none of those is going to happen.

Those primaries that took place, Biden won 90% on average. If no one else ran, that's on America, it's a clear way to make a decision, and it's just as binding.

"no genocide" is not on the menu. We've been protesting in Europe against America's continuous genocides for decades. You have dnc genocide or rnc genocide. If you reject dnc genocide you made your choice.

Yep, not with the Right-Wing DNC.

"Of the small number of people allowed to vote, in a Primary controlled by the DNC, Biden won." That's not the will of the people.

"no genocide" is not on the menu. We've been protesting in Europe against America's continuous genocides for decades. You have dnc genocide or rnc genocide. If you reject dnc genocide you made your choice.

No genocide is on the menu. The DNC can stop the genocide, which they won't if they feel comfortable in their chances of winning. Or, Third Party, both PSL and the Greens are anti-genocide.

If greens winning an election is what the left in the US thinks is possible, no wonder Trump ends up as president.

More possible than the DNC winning with a rotting corpse pushing for genocide against the right's messaiah figure who survived an assassination attempt. Neither are likely. The most likely win case is swapping out Biden and stopping genocide, as much as you hate those options.

I love those options. I also love a pot of gold, a unicorn and a flying carpet.
