The latest DNC internal polling shows him even farther behind in swing states and on the verge of losing some reliably blue states.

minus-squareRapidcreek@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up8arrow-down15·5 months agoI guess the point is that to replace Biden would drive chaos that would last longer than 4 months and be self defeating.
minus-squarebdonvr@thelemmy.clublinkfedilinkarrow-up8arrow-down3·5 months agoBiden is self defeating. I don’t see how he can win at this point. 2020 was pretty close.

minus-squareRapidcreek@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down5·5 months agoSlipping a new nominee in has the result of chaos. But, if you consider that chaos will not be a problem, then you don’t remember Eagleton.
minus-squareEnsign_Crab@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 months agoSounds to me like chaos is a threat and not a prediction. When centrists don’t get their very first choice, they form PACs to elect Republicans.

minus-squareceenote@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up7arrow-down1·edit-25 months ago Edit: Look at this - a classic case of a basic fact being down voted on Lemmy. Fuck off with that. People aren’t downvoting a basic fact, they’re downvoting the implication that 4 months means we’re stuck with Biden.
minus-squareRapidcreek@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down7·5 months agoYou make your own implications. That’s called a fact and there is literally nothing you can do about it.
minus-squareceenote@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down1·5 months agoSo in response to my lengthy rant about why Biden needs to step aside, you just happened to notice the date, with no deeper meaning? You’re arguing in bad faith now.

minus-squareRapidcreek@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down4·5 months agoLike I said, the implications are yours. That is a fact. In that you don’t like it changes nothing.
