Iβm not being ironic here, to be clear. Bitter, yes, but not ironic. Heβs not going to drop out. We are all going to have to play pretend for the next several months.

Iβm not sure what theyβre thinking NOW, but a week ago they (and I as well) were assuming that Biden dropping out was a foregone conclusionβand it should have been. But it wasnβt, so weβre going to have to take some pointers from Team Trump and pretend the sky is green until Nov.

He lost legitimately, but the fear the author spoke of in the article would account for that loss. Dems were (rightfully) scared, and ultimately concluded (unfortunately, if not wrongly, imho) that a road-tested candidate guaranteed not to rock the boat would stand the best chance against Trump.

That βthereforeβ is important, because it indicates that the person is saying the reason your argument is wrong is because you suck, and that doesnβt follow. If I were to say, e.g., βyou suck AND your argument is wrong,β that is not an ad hominem. Hope that helps!
