It is pathetic really. I am ashamed to be an American and a Democrat. When Trump is the enemy, you bring your best, or at least someone that is competent. This is a complete failure.

I just can't get my head round Biden and Trump being your only options.

Not that it's any better in the UK...

World is doomed.

Instead of complaining, how about we take this opportunity to remind as many people as possible that you are voting for policy, not personality. Biden makes a good candidate despite his age because he doesn't scare off all the absolute dogshit voters who somehow find themselves in the middle between center-right and insane-right.

I'd be ashamed to be a Brit and in either party there at this point as well. Doesn't excuse the nonsense we are being put through here though.

No lol. You need years of hilariously incorrect doom predictions to earn that title.

There's been talk about California Governor Gavin Newsom, or House minority leader Hakeem Jeffries. But unless the President acknowledges his limitations and steps aside, it's very hard to prevent him running for a second term. See also:

Got too love this is the best choice out of the entire country??? Half the population is ineligible. Would you want any of the 75 million average citizens that voted orange monkey in 2020? Not to say a portion of the Biden voting base is presidential material. You want The Rock or Kid Rock just because they are famous? Sadly the pool dwindles down to long term elected officials.

People in the UK are not allowed to comment on US politics, especially after what they've done to their own country over the last 14 years.

We don't select based on "best" due to our voting system, we get "lowest common denominator".

I'd love to, but removing term limits seems to be the path to dictators like Putin.

You can't really compare though, right?

This is 100% Biden being selfish. Just like RBG refusing to step aside early and look where that got us.

100% on Biden.

President Biden has been fine. Good policies enacted, good legislation passed on slim majorities, economy is doing great, inflation is under control. Still more work to be done, but Biden has chosen good people, and if he dies in office, he dies in office. I'd sooner choose Potted Plant (D) over Trump (or any Republican).

And yet, we still can't compare to the utter fucking disaster that has been the UK since David Cameron. 14 years of eating shit sandwiches.

Or, voting between someone with a proven capacity to actually perform the functions of the office, and a guy with a criminal record who managed to fail at running a casino. A casino. You know, "the house always wins", a casino.

Er, wait, I'm being told that's incorrect, it should be pluralized. Casinos.

I agree the choice is still easy to make, but really, our choice as Dems is embarrassing.
