10 bucks says that if Biden were to drop out and be replaced by whoever, the same people currently flipping out would see the exact same poll results, shit their pants once more, and demand another switch
So those other candidates are basically polling as well against Trump without having a bucket load of campaign funds behind them? Seems like an opportunity to me.
Same shit every election cycle. They'll flip out, demand a change, and if it's not their chosen savior they'll threaten to send their vote to the Russian stooge or the anti-vax moron. The same ones that are clutching their pearls at every SCOTUS dump after voting for Jill Stein every 4 years.
The never-Trump conservative types are mostly bedwetting to the tune of the NYT editorial board after spending countless hours telling the Democrats that they don’t understand message discipline or campaigning.
Disagree. That debate performance is disqualifying. Biden is incapable of moving his poll numbers and we have to move fast to find any alternative. Harris is already in a position where she will likely be president within 4 years if Biden wins, so she might as well be at the top of the ticket.
this is where I’m at. maybe would have been a good idea to try and swap out Biden before he won all the primaries. but that didn’t happen. we’re all on the leaky ass USS Biden and screaming he needs to drop out is to drill more holes in the bottom bsky.app/profile/esch...
Nah. Polling is broken and I don’t even believe it now. Biden and Trump are both so unpopular that switching either out guarantees victory. Independents will reflexively vote for a major party candidate that isn’t either.
This conclusion is shallow. The chart basically proves a fixed polarity, but that the grey bit in the middle determines the winner each time. Force the non decided to choose R/D/stay home for each selection and then see who wins.
We are basically freaking out about a static polling environment that shows engaged Democrats and Republicans locked in and undecideds simply not paying attention yet.
Harris is the only option.
Theoretically, you could test her: by Biden resigning now. Having the party rally around her.
If it proves to be a disaster, you do have the option of a last-ditch convention swap.
I don’t think it would be a disaster, but it’s reason for Biden to resign ASAP.
ANYONE is better than TFG. The thing with Biden is that he has a surrounded himself with a strong Adminstration that has gotten things done.
Having said that, even though Pritzker would likely be a bad choice, he wouldn't stand for a second for TFG's lies and rants. Pritzker can dish it right back.
Personally, I think a pivot should be made behind the scenes to seriously discuss plans if Biden were to die or become so incapacitated that he would have to resign.
Also, do you think Kamala is in the same boat as Biden in that she can't be replaced as of this point in time?
I wish the same survey houses would do the same exercise but replace trump with a bunch of alternates. Biden vs Haley, Tim Scott, Ted Cruz, DeSantis, Chris Christie, etc...
Fuck trump. Fuck republicans. Fuck biden. Fuck democrats.
Trump should be in prison.
Biden is letting genocide happen (among a long list of campaign promises failures)
Democracy without parties but for now im for voting jill stein full stop.
