I see you're very opposed to the idea of Biden continuing to try to prevent a fascist from seizing power. Now me, I'm behind Bernie 100%, and Bernie says Biden is the best chance we have to stop Trump, so I'm behind Biden. If they chose anyone else but Biden at this point, there'd be a lot of concern the choice wasn't democratic, and it would hurt whoever's chances. So if Biden says he's personally going to prevent Project 2025 and not leave it up to anyone else, I'm on his side on that.
I'm concerned that if he IS sundowning, then he could do more damage closer to the election than dropping now. It's concerning - Do we want to gamble on this?
Fuck, if only Trump could just drop dead. On top of several high profile GoP, killing them via crushing
I'll vote for Biden's rotting corpse over Trump.
I would as well if I was American (I'm Canadian though, so got our own unique brand of problems here)
Just god, I wish more Americans had the brains to realize that if the Dems lose, there won't be free elections anymore. Instead, so many will go, "He doesn't inspire" and not vote and could end up allowing democracy in the states to die and the world to choke
Literally an empty chair would be better than trump. That being said, Biden has carried out a fair amount of beneficial policies nationally speaking. The only issues I have with him is that he could be more progressive and his continued support of Israels war is horrific.
Why do you want Biden to be the candidate more than you want to stop trump from becoming president?
You know polls show Biden will lose and the more people see of him, the worse he does in polls.
What is your plan to get voters with Biden again?
You know like 13 hours ago he literally said he wouldn't care that much if he lost to trump?

He's not taking it seriously, and his entire campaign is based on "trump bad" which is true.
But to turn around say he doesn't really care if he loses?
Why are you defending his refusal to take this serious or even acknowledge people don't want him?
I don't. I made it very clear in my comment that I only care about Biden because I want to stop Trump from becoming president. Now either you didn't care to pay attention enough to understand the most basic point of my argument, or you're lying about what I said. And I don't feel like seriously engaging with someone who is either incompetent or a liar.
You are however more than welcome to spout such nonsense on !nonvoters@lemmy.blahaj.zone, which I created to make fun of opinions like yours.
Well said.
Thanks!
But why do you think he'll win when polls show trump with a significant lead and the more Biden is in public, the lower his numbers go?
Like yeah, it would be great and so easy if Biden could beat Trump and we could just check out till the election.
But literally every metric, data points, and general indication is Biden won't be able to.
Hell, Biden himself said his chances are "a coin flip" last night...
And completely refused stepping out of the way u less "lord God" told him to.
You mean the same polls that are biased towards whatever they want it to be? Fuck off with your apathy.
-Trump supporter, late 2020
Makes absolutely no sense. Try again.
Trump people were saying the exact same thing in 2020. They were ignorant and wrong and the idea is just as ignorant and wrong today. Ignore the polls and lose the election.
