    Someday there will be a movie about how the 2024 presidential election was lost. It'll be called "Bad Night at CNN."

    Hey genius, Ukraine is not our enemy, despite what your cult leader says. And how about the money Kuschner got from the Saudis. Oh yeah, they don’t talk about that on Fox, do they? But yeah, I agree that Biden may be the most “correct” President in history. SMFH

    The only alternative is Kamala Harris. I'd have no issue with her being the pick if Biden stepped down for health reasons. But the same people who are adamant about replacing him will undoubtedly whine about her. And then we'll get the fun of hearing months of sexist and racist comments, instead of the cracks about Biden's old age.

    The main complaint I've heard about Kamala is her laugh. I guess people aren't supposed to find things so funny.

    Great job by your candidate at the debate the other night friend. Incredible how quickly the Dems turned on senile Joe. All this time we were lied to about how mentally and physically fit Joe was. All of the so called cheap fakes were simply unedited video of senile Joe showing late term stages of dementia.
    Oh and now that we have proof that the lap top was real and it belonged to Hunter all along after you far left wing liberals lied that it was "Russian Disinformation", the 51 so called Intelligence experts have been exposed as frauds. The lap top was used to prosecute Hunter by the Biden DOJ! How ironic! I could go on and on but have better things to do then waste them on you.

    Why is she the only alternative? She would likely lose and has done nothing to distinguish herself as the only alternative other than toe the party line

    Exhibit A. She's already qualified to be on state ballots, the Biden campaign can turn over to her the massive war chest they already have since she's part of the campaign, and she's the VP.

    I think you are correct that Harris is the most logical and practical choice this late in the process for the reasons you stated above.

    Plus people are concerned with the border crises and she was able to get to the root cause of it, or at least that’s what she said she was going to do several years ago on her dog and pony visit

    The other candidate has been sufficiently disconnected from reality for years now. Your candidate has lied about virtually everything. You feel validated by his debate performance? Hilarious.

    Biden will lose. Harris would lose worse.

    After the debate every alternate candidate polled did worse against Trip than Biden.

    Legal problems getting alternative candidate on ballot in 15 states

    Money raised by Biden is non-transferable. It would be sent back. To donors

    Newsom couldn't beat Harris for a majority of Cali delegates. Blow dry San Francisco polls badly in the Midwest, especially the industrial Midwest,

    Hillary or Biden

    If Biden steps down what do you do with Kamala

    To avoid ballot issues Biden could run but announce he will step down in February. But Kamala would have to go

    Biden isn't going anywhere. Any article that talks about the possibility of him being replaced is click bait

    I don't think you Trumpies realize how funny and illogical some of your claims are.

    The Hunter laptop is totally real because the Biden DOJ is using it to prosecute him?

    Ok, but aren't you going to be missed on the threads about how unfair the bad ole DOJ is for prosecuting Trump after Biden "weaponized" it? (Such as in the city of Manhattan or state of GA, LOL)


    Oh, also: Biden is too old you say? OK, but you support a traitor criminal. Don't ever forget that.

    Then Trump is going to win. Incredibly depressing.

    I think Biden selfishly decided to run again when he knew Trump was the candidate thinking people would be so repelled by Trump and would eventually see that the economy is going in the right direction. He has underestimated the concern most people have over his age. I dont think his debate performance swung anyone away but I do think it was a missed chance to move the fence sitters which are many. He'll need some serious health issue to get him out I am guessing. I really dont see what, at his age, he needed from 4 more years of this shit.

    If nothing else it will be interesting and potentially dangerous ( unless you're part of the " in" group) to watch them build an American Reich. Wear all the loyalty bling you want, I'll pass.
    Reproductive rights, gone. Don't kid yourselves, they want the ban on abortion nationwide; btw they will go after contraception too.
    Separation of church and state, gone... but only for their brand of Christianity.
    Rights for marginalized populations, gone
    Environmental protection, gone
    Second amendment: unfettered access bolstered
    It won't be for a four year term, the aim is to fundamentally and permanently change the country to suit their wishes.

    It’s not too late. Democratic Party just needs to grow a pair and do what needs to be done. But they won’t because they are a neverending shit show.

    I think it will be a 4 year term. But otherwise I largely agree with you. Minority rule. It’s gonna get very ugly.

    Agreed, not suggesting Trump will be in the WH for life, but his hand picked successors will keep it rolling. At least that is the plan.
