i’m generally more sympathetic to obama than most lefties but i honestly don’t care what he thinks. there’s nothing insightful to it. if he’d told joe to run in 16 and told hillary to fuck off, trump would be pitching Season Whatever of “the apprentice”

Pretty much exactly this, but also, this just sounds like a statement of fact? Yeah, flubbing the debate made things harder, but it’s hardly a call for him to step aside

I don't know if Obama was *entirely* wrong to step over Biden and anoint Clinton given Beau Biden's death, but we should all be clear that that's what happened.

And we’d have a 5-4 liberal SCOTUS

he asked people around joe to make sure joe didn’t “embarrass himself” in the 2020 primaries, and then joe won the white house. like my man your brain isn’t good electorally when you ain’t on the ballot

I like Obama but he’s wrong about Joe Biden pretty often (considered replacing him as VP in his second term for no reason AFAIK, what you said in 2016, thought Biden couldn’t win in 2020)

I also don't care what Obama (or ANYONE!) thinks in this situation. But if either of them has 1% of the humanity we'd want to credit them with—much less the best-buds act they did in public—then the fact that Joe was grieving Beau's May 2015 death meant Obama could never have asked him to run.
