‘The Movement to Convince Biden to Not Run Is Real’

We need ranked choice voting, and this 2 party system is complete bullshit and needs to go. Obviously, neither will happen, but it should.

Bidens about to go down as one of the worst Democrats in the last century because of his hubris if he doesn't. His decent domestic agenda will be overshadowed by him ushering in another trump presidency by ignoring all the signs for him to drop out. He didn't early last year when polls repeatedly showed that people thought he was too old. He didn't when unnamed democrat was leading him by 10 points. He didn't when his Gaza policy alienated large chunks of his base. If he doesn't in the next couple weeks when there will probably be polls coming out showing majority support for him stepping down then he's gone full head in the sand.

It's like RBG all over again, if these people could just get it through there heads to quit while there ahead they could preserve a decent legacy, instead of tarnishing it by leading the way to a regressive order that overturns everything they've done.

This is how Bernie can still win! /s

In the off chance they do replace him, they're going to force the worst possible candidate on us (Kamala?). Because what else are you going to do, let the bad guy win?

Really cool feeling when your state has primaries long after super Tuesday and the candidates were already mathematically locked in before you get a say. I swear I only get a chance to influence presidential primaries half the time or so. It's strange to watch a 'democracy' keep moving when sometimes your voice doesn't count because of where you're from.

Democrats have nobody to blame but themselves. They stayed mum for three and half years and now they’re reaping the whirlwind.

Shout out to the neoliberal dipshits who thought we needed another right-of-center incrementalist to beat Trump.

That one really fucking worked out...

Biden's big problem in the debate was that, for a few moments, he mumbled a confused answer that sounded like Donald Trump.

"reflection is needed"

I hate being pessimistic, but they're gonna drag out "reflecting" for so long that they will lose the election.

if our elected officials are actually serious, they better act quickly on this because yesterday was extremely embarrassing. time will tell.

Remember when a huge coalition of people wanted RBG to retire? And then she didn't, and those people took it as courage or some such other virtue?

Isn't it too late to get a new democrat as candidate anyway, right? I mean you need to register in all states before a deadline no?

Biden drops out Trump wins. What is the point of this?

My prediction is that one of them doesn’t make it to Inauguration Day and the country panics as a result. Is likely? No. But on this timeline it makes the most sense

It's far too late for that, jackasses.

It's almost like it was a stupid fucking decision in the first place to make Biden, Obama's embarrassing baggage, run for president.

So many of us fought this, and so many of us now hate the democratic party for this. They get zero sympathy from me at this stage.

I'm voting against Trump in this election just like I did in the last election, but after the conservatives retire the narcissistic criminal, all bets are off.

I am right now drafting a message to send to the White House contact form advocating for just this. Will do nothing most likely, but it's my drop in the ocean.

Maybe one of these people? Not that I like them, but they are not trump, have a chance, and are not on their deathbed.

• Gretchen Whitmer
• Pete buttigieg
• Jamaal Bowman

Isn't it legally too late regardless? Don't they have to have their application and fee in by a certain date?

It’s too late. They should have listened when we all said that before. But MMW, if they switch now they’ll not win in November. Stay the course and there’s a squeak of a chance.

Here’s the thing, if they push Biden out and pick Harris, she can’t beat Trump.

If they push Biden out and DONT pick Harris they’re literally telling the public that this presidency is not legitimate.

"Biden can’t be persuaded let alone pressured"

Which sums up both Biden's strength and all his problems in one statement.

Okay you know what? That's it, elections are cancelled until morale improves

Not gonna happen. Also, the debate won't make any difference. People made up their minds a long time ago on Biden vs Trump they are clearly not budging no matter what happens with the candidates. Only if they fall over dead will they be replaced.

The conspiracy theorists all say Joe is supposed to step down and Gavin Newsom somehow is added to the ticket which then will win. These conspiracy theorists also say that candidates are selected in advance by the powers that be and it’s all pagentry to deceive the gullible masses. If this is true, then Joe needs no convincing and this is already decided.

Hate to give attention to polls, but pretty much all polls say otherwise, so "bot pushing narrative" orrrr?

I honestly think Bernie should run independent.

It's clear Biden has no chance of rapidly changing his policy or stance on anything, meaning he will most likely lose to Trump anyway.

Even if Bernie gets only 20% of votes, it would be enough to get the DNC to split.

And no that 20% would not have been stolen from Biden. I saw Hillary's horrendous turnout, people don't vote when there's not a candidate worth voting for.

They should force Hillary on us again.
