Also stupid: ignoring calls that you’re too old, dropping out way too late for a primary and handing off to your VP who was not particularly popular last primary.
Continued the initial push of laying her foot into the collective asses of the MAGA collective. That first month or so was great and Dems needed that energy.
Gone against Biden and condemned the situation in Gaza AND remind everyone that Ukraine is still going.
Not listened to the idiot Dem “strategists” who seem so fucking convinced that courting modern Conservatives is a good idea.
Had she done these three things and even the shit communications of the Dems could not have stopped the word of mouth and internet celebrity status she would have had.
You know, almost feels intentional. Would not surprise me, for sure. I can totally imagine that jackass thinking better for him to hand the reigns to Trump than to some dirty socialist like Bernie.
Almost certainly. The Dems in power aren’t worried about a second Trump administration. If anything, they’re excited for it. What terrifies them is the idea of a third party, progressive candidate getting office.
That’s not the whole story. The concerns about his age were present since before he was elected as president, which is what led him to promise to be a one-term president. His presidency was llagued with stories about his age and appearances that made clear he was no longer fit.
He reneged on his promise and, as the incumbent president, was a shoe-in for the primary, preventing a real primary involving real competition for the candidacy to occur. In June, the calls for him to drop out began coming from the highest levels of media and the party due to the disastrous debate, but Dem voters and the nation in general considered him to be too old years before that.
I’m sorry, but it is stupid to acknowledge that your age is a liability, then after 4 years have passed, refuse to step aside so that your allies are forced to downplay your fitness issues and elect you as forerunner of the party, then to be exposed right next to your opponent on an internationally-watched debate.
No, he can in fact renege on a promise he gave to his aides who revealed it to credible press organizations. You are free to call the NYT and Politico “the web”, but you’re not free to reply to me anymore. Blocked.

She’d had done fine if she did three things:

She didn’t though. Given the fact she never won a presidential primary it was unsurprising that she ran a poor campaign.
Also putting a heritage foundation sympathizer as your AG.
Not accounting postal board members who would remove the scum that is DeJoy.
Letting Israel genocide Palestine without cutting off the weapon supply. While also dragging us into shit with Iran.

The Democratic primaries and caucus finished in May.
Calls for Biden to step out down started in June.

That’s the story as it pertains to your original statement.
I don’t remember him promising to be a one term President, so would like a source for that.

As it says, no public pledge. A story on a web page is not a pledge.
I never said “public pledge.” You can stop being disingenuous or stop replying to me.
Look who’s being disingenuous
He can’t reneg, as you said, on something you read on the web.
No, he can in fact renege on a promise he gave to his aides who revealed it to credible press organizations. You are free to call the NYT and Politico “the web”, but you’re not free to reply to me anymore. Blocked.
