It’s also based on a fanciful idea that some other unnamed Democrat would be more popular.
Regardless it hardly matters. A primary against Biden would have been the height of stupidity and he wasn’t going to step aside.
It’s also based on a fanciful idea that some other unnamed Democrat would be more popular.Joe's 'baggage' is wholly manufactured by FAUX media. Joe is a good guy doing good things who has made a few mistakes.
Yeah people need to realize that whoever Dems put up will be the new person with baggage. When Hillary was the candidate all the Republicans and "independents" loved Biden and said he should have been the candidate and then they would vote Democrat. Well look at them all now.Joe's 'baggage' is wholly manufactured by FAUX media. Joe is a good guy doing good things who has made a few mistakes.
What makes you think a different candidate would fare any better? Joe has been a good President, the economy is better, inflation is recovering, gas prices are back down, the stock market is at all time highs. Now go tell that to a conservative or "independent" and they'll look at you like you're living in an alternate reality even though it is all objectively true. Biden is a boring old white moderate or slightly conservative Democrat, conservatives believe he's a radical leftist.if the Dems had a candidate with out such absolutely horrible negative numbers, it would be a shoe in. But Biden=baggage, some of the worst numbers of any incumbent ever.
That's the secret, being a democrat is the baggage they're talking about.What makes you think a different candidate would fare any better? Joe has been a good President, the economy is better, inflation is recovering, gas prices are back down, the stock market is at all time highs. Now go tell that to a conservative or "independent" and they'll look at you like you're living in an alternate reality even though it is all objectively true.

What baggage does Biden have besides shit made up by conservatives? They would do this with ANY Democrat candidate.
Is it really though? I find it hard to believe anyone who would still vote for Trump would be swayed by that.A criminal conviction for 1/6 related activities is going to carry a lot more political weight with the people who need swaying than a civil loss.
MAGA would love him even more; but it's believable that the tiny slice of the electorate that is truly independent/swingy would likely move away from him. Keep in mind true swing voters are not many, but they carry a lot of weight if located in a "Battleground state." Many voters claim to be independent but really aren't. For example a very long time ago I registered to vote as No Party Preference, and many other people have as well. In reality, I've never voted for a Republican in a Presidential election. But I certainly wouldn't call myself a swing voter, although others like to believe they are centrist or objectively persuadable.Is it really though? I find it hard to believe anyone who would still vote for Trump would be swayed by that.
It’s because they don’t give a single solitary shit about consistency.It's still difficult to grasp why the election would only have been stolen for the presidency and not the house or senate. I suppose it's that old fascist trope of the enemy who is both strong and weak, cunning and stupid. Able to steal an election, but not clever enough to do it in a meaningful way.
I mean a couple of those aren't not true, but not for the reasons they think I imagine.Just a fyi - This is the level of fucknuttery we are dealing with for Trump supporters.
I really don't know what to say.

Y'know, I'm still waiting for someone to explain to me why Harris is 'deeply unpopular' for reasons that can't be copy-pasted to Pence, Biden 16 years ago, Cheney, Kaine, Quayle, etc. Other than being a woman of color of course.with a running mate that is deeply unpopular.
I was kind of surprised that "Education is indoctrination" wasn't on there, but the spelling mistakes make me think they probably didn't have much experience with that so it probably just slipped their mind.I mean a couple of those aren't not true, but not for the reasons they think I imagine.
Thar ya go!!Y'know, I'm still waiting for someone to explain to me why Harris is 'deeply unpopular' for reasons that can't be copy-pasted to Pence, Biden 16 years ago, Cheney, Kaine, Quayle, etc. Other than being a woman of color of course.
I'm 100% for Team Biden, but it's false to say that his baggage is every Democratic candidate's baggage. Nobody else is 81 years old with a running mate that is deeply unpopular.
Listening to phone-in radio and many callers, including Americans and UK Faragists, seem to be under the impression this constitutes some great victory for Trumpism, as if he beat Biden in a state-wide vote rather than a collection of Trump tribute acts in a vote purely among Iowa Republicans. That Trump is the front-runner to be the Republican candidate is surely no surprise, but it means nothing as far as the actual election, surely?
Of course MAGAts are disingenuous, that's who they are and they've devolved completely into Trump cultists.This is exactly what we're talking about. Trump is essentially just as old as Biden and acts far more senile that Biden does, yet they have no problem voting for Trump.
Just look at how @Greenman complained about Biden not being able to speak in complete sentences and then went completely silent when given numerous examples of Trump's insane ramblings. They are lying when they say that is a reason they will not vote for Biden.
GOP voters are almost all cultists now, so this shouldn't surprise anyone. You have to do a shit load of mental gymnastics to vote for Donald Trump.I was more surprised that like 65% of them polled believed the election was stolen, than that he won.
The bonus will be later, when they don't understand how Biden is president again when Trump won the election in January.Listening to phone-in radio and many callers, including Americans and UK Faragists, seem to be under the impression this constitutes some great victory for Trumpism, as if he beat Biden in a state-wide vote rather than a collection of Trump tribute acts in a vote purely among Iowa Republicans.

Talk radio has been a cauldron of grievances for at least 15 years (probably more). 90% of it was trash back then - I imagine that's 99.96% now.Listening to phone-in radio and many callers, including Americans and UK Faragists, seem to be under the impression this constitutes some great victory for Trumpism, as if he beat Biden in a state-wide vote rather than a collection of Trump tribute acts in a vote purely among Iowa Republicans.
