Odds of Biden stepping down, being replaced. Choose.

Regarding the George Clooney stuff, it's interesting to note a longer connection than just generic big donor.

George Clooney phoned White House over fears his wife, Amal Clooney, could face sanctions, report says

The Washington Post reported Clooney was concerned after President Biden attacked the International Criminal Court, which Amal Clooney had assisted.

Yes, because the party elite and taste makers have the political instincts of morons.

We keep expecting the Ds to behave like the Rs and it's not going to happen. Raging against that fact while cathartic doesn't move the ball forward.

There was a time to have this fight, it was just before the primaries. It's not like age was an unknown factor. Now is the time to unify as a block against Trump, not to turn onward with recriminations.

My position on this is that Biden probably looked mostly fine in early 2023 and that he probably looks a lot less fine in mid 2024. Anybody who's watched relatives age knows this is a distinct possibility.

I don't recall saying Trump wasn't guilty of a crime, I also don't recall claiming Biden was. I have used examples of the accusations.

"who me?"

Yes, we know how the passage of time works. But that's why it was important to take those considerations into account then. I know what is done is done, but the Democrats, as usual, love to constantly feed "Dems in Disarray" stories, much to their own detriment.

Potential signal about the internal Dem voter dynamics of the withdraw argument. They do not appear polarized by ideology.

George is an active and longtime Dem proponent, and has proved time and time again he is an ally of the Dems and their policy. He hosted the 30 million dollar fundraiser recently. He has a connection to Biden. They are not besties but they have a connection. His wife is prosecuting Israel.

But the Blue Maga on social media are now just insulting him as a rich white privileged man who should shut the fuck up like that's all he is, and he knows nothing, and this is the elite trying to take over. Ignoring all he has done and his true and heartfelt support over the Dems for years. and when you tell them what he's done, they don't respond, block you, or call you a troll. A cult.

Bingo. What I call enfeeblement stage happens sometimes overnight and there is no going back.

Edit: And I not talking Alzheimer's.

Likely a lot more D politicians are going public after the NATO summit finishes.

yep

Pelosi clearly giving the hint to Biden but it's pretty clear Biden can't hear anything outside his ego and inner circle..

she was definitely giving the hint. She has mostly very good political instincts and she usually is not scared to go against the grain. They are just giving Biden a shot to go out gracefully, but he, his ego, and apparently now insane inner circle, simply don't have it in them to do it for the good of the country and the party. sad and shameful.

In our political climate, if it's not 100% buy-in from congressmen and a fucking phalanx of agreement amongst talking head/media correspondence, it's 'soandsos are in disarray'. Actual conversation about topics is actively discouraged at this point and it's patently absurd.

 

[Pens1566]

So at this point, the damage has already been done with the non-stop public outcry. They've nuked their own candidate. /golfclap

My MIL has had two vehicular accidents in the last week.

Father time moves breathtakingly fast when he feels like it.

Did the outcry do the damage, or did the performance that caused the outcry cause the damage...

I'd be more sympathetic to this viewpoint if D voters had not signaled their change in opinion in surveys and there being like night of stories about how demoralized regular D voters were with his debate performance. Has the press been fair to him? Absolutely not. But if he is unable to turn the news cycle off on this then that's a consideration that must be accounted for. As for the D politicians that have slowly abandoned him he essentially told them to fuck off and that he's staying in no matter the consequences to them so they are obviously going to make their own calculations for political survival.

I think these Dem Ride with Biden or Die people need to start recognizing a majority of his own party didn't want him to run again, and that many were concerned about his age, which started becoming pretty clear in 2023, before he ran again, that it was going downhill and was too much of a risk. The majority of the party has thought his age is a problem from back then and of course now, this has been constant. Biden has never polled well in the last year and change. This is not about one debate. That is just pure cognitive dissonance. We all now the media playing field is unfair to Dems, just like the EC is and the Senate and House structure, etc..

At this point, the one thing the media got right, is Biden's age was a problem. It's not like they just pulled that out of thin air, it's been pretty consistent just by seeing Biden and what events he did from before he ran until now. And I never needed the news to tell me, I could literally see it happening with my eyes and ears. I have long railed against the NYT and their bias, and cancelled them months back. The media didn't put Biden's age/frailty in my head, my simple powers of observation did.

The fact the Biden cult insists this is just out of touch elites and a total media creation is just totally dishonest, and not in a good way.

Thank you for posting this yet again.

 

[K1052]

Evaporating D political support, crashing fundraising, and his own campaign officials who think he cannot recover.

Even if Biden doesn't agree that he'll necessarily lose why would you want to continue under these circumstances when you can wash your hands of it and sit on the beach in Delaware instead?

Call 988 dude!

You think it can be fixed somehow.

Biden is a temporary solution and if I've learned a few things in my lifetime.. one of them is.. there's nothing more permanent than a temporary solution!

Until the cultists start to admit it, I will keep posting it. For example, not far above my post, Pens states - this was just a self-fulfilling media prophecy. Posting again and again that he refuses to see reality. Why don't you tell your people to stop posting the same dishonest shit yet again and yet again? I don't really wonder why.

Have you changed your mind on anything yet?

Those poll ?s are always dubious though. Sure, I'd prefer Kate Beckinsale show up at my front door this afternoon ... but I'm happy with the wife as is (yes, she's aware that I'd pick Kate if it came down to it).

As someone who's bedded over a 1000 people.. I'll let you in on a little secret.

Sexual chemistry with someone > hots/ infatuation for someone.

And you should never be in a long term relationship with someone when sexual chemistry feels fleeting/ non existant/ low. That's the quickest way to shoot your own dick without actually doing it!

I personally don't have any issues with Biden. I think he is a solid president and had a great speech. It's the attitude of certain posters.

Don't let me stop you from repeating yourself over and over like you're contributing to something here.

 

[MrSquished]

Yes, after we got stuck with Biden, after I said that was a big mistake, I did get behind Biden. I was in it to defeat Trump and had to ride with him. I have helped to campaign for dems and Biden too. That's what my statement reflects. I was constantly berated for saying Biden was clearly not a smart choice, and clearly not the best choice, but all you quoting me there proves is that no matter how stupid I thought the Biden choice was, I got behind the guy and just tried to move forward. Thanks for showing that I did the right thing and backed up my words that I would back him after he killed any real primary.

Again, why don't you stop your cult friends from repeating the same dishonest and completely misleading nonsense OVER AND OVER AGAIN. The latest being, this was just a media creation. You can't. It seems you agree with them. Sad. You like them repeating themselves over and over and over again because you agree with the bullshit. Don't let me stop you dear, bless your heart.
