It goes way way way beyond that. So you think Biden is good to go? Solid candidate still? You ridin' with Biden 100%?

I still think he suffered a fall or a stroke or something. The decline has been rapid in the past 6-12 months.

Unfortunately for him, and us, his legacy is going to be a "yeah, but..."

I watched a CNN interview this morning and their camera had a close up of Biden leaving the stage after the debate. Trump had already walked to the stage exit and disappeared but Biden was frozen by the podium with Jill at his side. She tried to walk him forward but he couldn't move so she had to step back and pull his hand to get him moving forward.

Then when they got to the short steps a producer came forward to take his other hand to help him down the steps because he was doing so poorly but he refused it. This is not a good look and I don't care what you think. He's no longer able to function at the level required to be president and Trump is only half a step behind him in that department.

I can't find that video but I did find this one with a different angle that shows it happen just not up close. Just watch the first 30 seconds of it.

This is a bit better.

Yeah, a 'cold' definitely didn't cause that...

The time to step down was before the primaries. Too late now. Decided to go full RGB.

Who is going to step in to this mess, never being voted for by the party, and high likelihood to lose and cement legacy as a sad fking joke?

Ukraine is the only remaining strong reason I have for considering voting Biden. Otherwise the party needs a hard reset.

Second Dem rep to issue essentially a "vote of no confidence," but stopping short of outright asking Biden to step aside. And as a plot twist, he thinks everything will work out fine!

We may have missed the window, true.

The unspoken peril in all of this is...let's say someone steps in for Biden and actually wins, or even let's say a deteriorating Joe Biden actually ends up winning. The right will absolutely never accept it - true, they were going to gnash their teeth if any Dem wins...but if Biden or some late entry candidate actually pulls it off after all the recent events, it will amplify their election denials by 1000%. The risk of violence or other outright shenanigans just went through the roof.

That's the only reason to vote for Biden? Wow, that's a pretty sad indictment on your morals and values.

Also it's not too late now. It's time for Biden to step aside, let Harris take over and pick a great VP. She has four months to do her thing with lower negatives than Biden. And we can still save this country for now. It has to be Harris, it's the only choice that makes sense to people that would avoid a big mess of how to pick a candidate otherwise, and potentially kill our shots altogether.

That's the problem though. Harris has even lower approval ratings than Biden. Newsome projects himself well, but has the albatross of coming from a very liberal state with lots of problems. Polls have shown he also rates lower vs Trump than Biden. These polls are old though, so either might score better now, since the debacle of Biden's debate performance. Whitmer or Klobuchar? I dont think either has a chance. I am from MN and like Amy, but she is not a particularly effective speaker, and actually is hard to listen to.

If the Repubs are smart, they'll just run on 'a vote for Biden is a vote for Kamala' since the Dems have no balls and gave us this ticket. Also shows the Biden team fucked up the VP pick. They could have picked Whitmer, but she didn't check the minority DEI checkbox.

anyone comparing Biden to FDR btw, also fucking morons. what a stupid comparison. the guy who led us through WWII during multiple terms, to Biden. These people are fucking delusional.

As of late, it's more like Biden is being compared with Ruth Bader Ginsburg and the consequences of her decision to hold out instead of stepping aside.

I do agree here. He could hang his hat on stopping what could have been dark road for the US to take and urge people to get fired up to vote. He could be brutally honest, admit he is having some issues, and go out with the support from an entire nation. (most people will be affected by something like this or have had the pleasure of caring for an individual fighting for their life - if that is indeed what may be inflicting him)

I disagree on Harris only because she really doesn't have the 'it' factor, not sure wtf it is. At the same time, I don't have any rationale alternatives, it's really a shit pool of people all the way through. Every last one of them is a scumbag on both sides and we'll be voting 'for the lesser evil' till the whole thing goes bust. I don't even know why we need 'representatives' anymore. Just go to a popular vote on everything and let everyone vote on their smart phones. You could even hire a good dev team from something like pornhub to verify everything and make sure its legit.

We should just hire a real actor from Hollywood them and tell them this is going to be their most important job of their life. We could just pay them to act like a real president.


We would be in good hands with Palmer at the helm.

Biden is at +19.4 disapprove and Harris is at +10.1 disapprove per 538. Trump unfavorable right now at +11.7.

So change the United States into Federal America or the Peoples Republic of X, something like that? Seems like a big step.

Who is Harris VP pick? (does it work like that?)

She'll need to pick an appropriate white male preferably from a rust belt state to counterbalance her Californianess.

My pick would be Josh Shapiro, the current governor of Pennsylvania. He's experienced, popular, has won statewide elections, and PA is a must win.

I’d rather roll the dice with Harris at this point. At least if the idiot electorate votes for Trump over her, the choice isn’t drooling idiot 1 vs drooling idiot 2 and the country will fully deserve what it gets.

I don't think we know that. We also don't know that Biden would lose either. Certainty is pretty tough to come by.

Right. No one "knows" anything. Harris just has huge demographic issues (and political ones) that Biden does not.
