But it seems even after the debate he still thinks he is the right guy for the job. Did anybody show him the video of his performance? How demented must someone be to see that and still think: Sure, that guy is the best choice for the most powerful job in the world. I don't think there is a god, but just in case there is one, please send Biden a message, maybe a heart attack, so that he things again about his choices. Because it seems he is the only one who can now decide he won't run for president. The DEMs can't just easily have a new candidate. The DEMS are in a dilemma . If Biden stays it is odds on that Trump wins . If Biden steps down it could turn ugly for the DEMS as a free for all scramble from candidates erupts which will have a negative impact on their chances to win the election as they will be seen as a disorganized party . Now if the deputy ( Kamala Harris ) was capable of taking the reigns , that could have been an acceptable ploy but under the US Constitution that can only happen during a term and not to become a prime candidate . However the 25th Amendment of the Constitution allows the vice president and cabinet to declare the president not able to perform his duties of office and the power is transferred to the vice president . However KH is not a popular figure apparently , so that will not happen . 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems the situation is even worse. Kamala Harris is in that position mostly to get women and black votes. So what would happen if the party decides to have a new candidate who is not Kamala Harris? And possibly white and male. Many women and black voters wouldn't like that. And many Americans, even DEM voters, don't want Kamala Harris. They have a problem, a big problem. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel sorry for the guy; he just embarrasses himself. The US electoral system is broke if this pair is the only viable option. Young and switched on folk with no dirt or ego should be in the running. Someone like Jake Sullivan... good speaker, no palaver. People of age (zero connection with much of the populace) should not be allowed to run. All about money innit. All about money? What about Michael Bloomberg? He blew over $500 million, before dropping out and endorsing Joe Biden. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is not another country that would trust anything he says. If you have so much knowledge and foresight about how America will perform when Trump wins perhaps you should be in the contest for president. You can also speak for the rest of the world apparently!

The problem - 45 has made many many many more such stupid statements. Die by shark or die by electric battery was the most recent I heard, though Fox viewers never did (I recommend they Google it for comparison). These two geriatrics need to go away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eloquent pilgrim Posted Saturday at 07:14 AM Share Posted Saturday at 07:14 AM No fan of either, but Biden is clearly showing continuing signs of cognitive dissonance, and shouldn’t be allowed out unaccompanied; as for being reelected as President of the most powerful democracy in the world …. you have to be kidding 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have dipped in and out of watching her various media/talk show appearances for the last four years. I think that it is rather than she strongly dislikes quite a lot of the people "established" in politics. That may rather resonate with many beyond the democratic camp. Her antipathy for "establishment politics" and attendant public support may make it difficult for "ultra establishment" organisations ( yes I am rather thinking of the Supreme Court) and the wrecking ball elements in Congress to "put the boot in" and may result in some sensible meaningful reforms. Just an idea - one term may suffice for a "reset"? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerrymahoney Posted Saturday at 07:36 AM Share Posted Saturday at 07:36 AM The last time the NY Times endorsed a Republican Presidential candidate was Eisenhower in 1956. They endorsed President Biden in 2020. If, as on the NY Times opinion piece page 1 this topic, the NYT thinks Joe Biden should step aside, that is no small thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
