- Every time this happened in the past, the party lost in a landslide
- The hand-wringing increases voter apathy, also helping the conservatives
- Undermining the candidate is a classic conservative move
Maybe get with the programme and deal with stutters and stumbles when democracy is preserved, okay? Or do you lose a bonus?
19Man, numerous sitting Dem Congresscritters have called for Biden to step down. You don't recover from that public loss of confidence. These are strange times - this may be the best choice going forward.
4He's already losing in polls, and he himself has, clearly stated that at least fifty other democrats could beat Trump.
This is not a conservative plot, it's a very real push from concerned Americans to salvage a losing race.
3He should have never been in this situation. Watching videos of him recently have brought me PTSD from a recent death of a loved one who died from Louis Body Dementia. Not saying he has that, I'm saying the way he acts and moves just brings those memories backs.
1His polling has been plummeting for weeks, 60% of Democrats want him out, and party leadership is trying to force him to step down. At this point, you're accusing people of being paid trolls for agreeing with Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff.

Disregarding everything else, what’s a pod bro? Like vape pod? A fan of the dolphins? Ugly storage enthusiast?
13problably all the democrats like me who people pretend don't exist with memes like this that see no improvement with him stepping down and more than likely see a worse situation.
9As an independent, i think this asshole has always been one of the worst possible people the democrats could choose. I still remember floods of democrats begging Obama to reconsider selecting him as his vice president... And he was a lot younger back then.
I'm sure the democrats could fuck this up more with a new person, but the chances are pretty low, even for them, to pick someone worse.
4I could see your point before his term but his term has been the best of any president in my lifetime as far as whats been accomplished vs the political situation. Honestly even taking out the wierd political situation. I can't believe how many things I like out of this administration. Remember though I am comparing to actual presidents and what they produced. Not I would have rather he did X on Y.

"Pod bros"? Did i miss the invasion of the pod people? :)

The man pretty openly said he wouldn't step down unless there was no chance of him winning. He doesn't care if him stepping down is for the best (which it is), he just wants to hold onto power any chance he gets.
4Just like RBG. Her legacy is now the loss of reproductive rights for women all across the nation.
11This opinion is as wrong as two left shoes. It's just copium for leftists who rat-fucked in 2016 and are in denial.
How about this counterfactual? Bernie Sanders could have saved Roe by retiring.

Actually, he said it would take an act of god. Then he got Covid.

There's no good reason for it. The DNC is not going to put forth a better candidate in terms of policy, and no one else can have the incumbent advantage.
No one is more likely to beat Trump. We're not going to get better policy.
You can tell because AOC and Bernie endorsed him; trust your political allies on this.

Man, they're trying to keep up party unity. Speaking out in public with anything except support for a candidate is inevitably read as opposition - the only two choices when talking on the subject are "I am behind [candidate] 100%" or a total Hail Mary "He needs to step down". And the progressives are in the worst position to make such a demand - if they did, they would inevitably be accused of not being 'team players' and ostracized within the party, even if Biden does step down.
3And what if Biden literally dies before the election? It's a serious question.
0According to the polls, which are simultaneously unreliable and our best metric for this, Kamala is the best person to replace him. I'm not the only one who'd vote for Biden if he were on life support and I knew he'd die in the first week.

Brain Aneurysm.
1Yeah let's give up the incumbency advantage! Woo!
0Would he have "incumbency advantage" if were literally known to be dead? What about a vegetative state? At what level of decline between Biden now and literally dead do you think the state of the candidate overwhelms the incumbency advantage?

This is easily the dumbest attempt at a meme I've seen this month. Easily. Get fucked accelerationist fascist.
-8Ah yes. Accelerationism is when you agree with Nancy Pelosi and Obama. Thats the dumbest take I've read in a long time.
