Get a Grip, Democrats. You Can Still Win This. Biden's not far behind, the economic conditions remain excellent, and a vile assassination attempt in July doesn't determine November's outcome.
I’m entirely serious. The Republicans can rally around a criminal billionaire and still expect to take the white house, so why can’t the Democrats run an intellectual Canadian? I trust the guy that coined the term “enshittification” a whole lot more than the politicians who have been enabling it, anyhow.
If you’re “entirely serious” in the literal sense, just to be super clear the answer to “why can’t the Democrats run an intellectual Canadian?” is that a Canadian is disqualified from the office of the President in the Constitution. Unfortunately, they didn’t think to prohibit megalomaniac felons. That’s apparently on us. :(
The writers of the 14th Amendment did, but for some reason they figured the president didnt need to be called out specifically in the final draft; probably figured it was obvious the president is an officer of the state. But well, we know how scotus took that
Then maybe it’s time for you to admit that there’s nothing Democratic about elections in this country and to start treating them with the contempt that they deserve.
Elections don’t exist to pick leaders, that’s a mere side effect of their real purpose: the reification of the implied consent of the governed.
The problem with demanding “actionable plans” is that the only person who could enact them is the DNC chairperson, who currently reports to the incumbent.

The sad thing is, I do think you’re serious, and it speaks to the overarching theme of REALLY REALLY STUPID voters this election, on both sides.

As I said
Cool so he has your vote. Who else? As expected the people who want Biden to bail at the 11th hour have no actionable plan.
