The vast majority of polls are showing Trump ahead in Michigan though. And Dem internals are showing a Trump landslide so the issue is probably some polls overestimating Biden support in swing states.

if conservatives are the threat you say they are, then go eliminate some.

Trump's about to win because dipshits like you kept insisting Biden stay the nominee. If Trump and conservatives are the threat you say they are then why are you only willing to use electoral tactics.

It would be a layup if the democratic leadership showed willingness to force Biden off the ticket.

Do you think I WANT Trump to win? The reason I want Biden out is because I want someone who can actually function after 8PM to run against Trump.

You're even dumber than I thought if you became a Hillary fan AFTER she lost to Trump. And maybe put your energy into something productive like getting Biden to drop the fuck out. Or are you also nearly as old as Biden which is why you sound so delusional?

Your only argument is stay the course/anti-chaos. But "the course" is losing in a landslide. And if that happens, my life is fucked. So I'm a little fucking irritated at people who don't have much to lose here.

Yes a Black Woman who is currently doing MORE campaign work than the actual nominee would have a better chance than the 81 year old who can't even handle the job after 8pm.

The media not spending much time focused on the VP is normal though. If you want the media to focus on Harris more then she should be the nominee not Biden.

It’s just amazing to me that in order for it to be evil or something people have to prove trump was directly involved. Maybe not! Sometimes the capitalist class just seeks to deepen its hold and they will use policy think tanks which hand curated policy to campaigns and politicians to do so!

Worth noting the EPA's brief correctly uses "nitrogen oxide" 7 times, and the EPA submitted a declaration from an official who used it twice. But nobody involved in the majority opinion, Justices and clerks, bothered to take the EPA's brief seriously, and so none of them noticed the error.

The lesson you should be learning is that having a nominee as bad as Biden is undermining Democratic messaging. If you want to win in 2024 you need to get Biden to step the fuck down ASAP.

Cannon is a whack job, but considering the SCOTUS ruling it’s pretty reasonable to request briefing on this. The real issue here is that the SCOTUS ruling is insane.

I keep seeing references made to 'leftists' who 'want 45 to win.' Who are these leftists? Are they strangers on the internet? I just don't see this. No one I know on the Left(s) is pro-45. I know some reactionary *moderates* who are though.

I think what makes this difficult to discuss with any kind of rigor is that Biden staying in is bad and Biden dropping out is also bad! There are no good options available so we’re all flailing to figure out which bad thing is gonna be like 15% better than the worse thing

Or even just had Biden run in 2016 instead of 2020 he would have likely won in a landslide and the courts would have flipped to 5-4 Dem.

The cruelest irony is that Biden would have likely won in a landslide against Trump in 2016, but too many Dems insisted on sticking with Hillary.

Hillary was a terrible candidate in 2016, even more than she was in 2008 — and anyone who pointed out this obvious fact had Blue MAGA people screaming "sexist" at them. Blue MAGA spent the last five years screaming "ageist" at anyone who correctly pointed out that Biden is pretty obviously shaky.

The "Biden Too Old" drama is actually extremely relevant to the Supreme Court / Trump dictator conversations. The Democrats keep annointing flawed, white centrist candidates with 1970s politics who everyone is already kinda sick of. That's how we got stuck with Trump in 2016. Build a bench, ffs!

Gee I don’t know maybe the several polls (including the ones that correctly predicted GOP underperformance in 2022) all saying Trump is on pace to outright win the popular vote.
