Now if you criticize Biden on Lemmy, half of the people will downvote you and call you a Russian bot.
Criticize Biden all you want. But he's not stepping down and there isn't a good alternative this late in the game. The DNC fucked up by allowing him to run the first time and then again by not demanding he not seek re-election. Just like they fucked up by fucking over Sanders.
And yet... these are the cards we have and we're not getting another hand. It sucks.
They could run newsom or Harris. It’s not too late.
Actually it very likely is. The DNC's and a few key states' rules may not allow that.
Newsom is an extremely savvy political operator and will not run for several reasons, but mainly he knows he's likely up next and needs to play nice with the DNC establishment. He doesn't need to take chances on a run against a toxic candidate when he can run in 2028 and have a much much easier time. Likely he sees the consequences of a Trump 2nd term and knows the tide will swing dramatically toward a more progressive candidate.
IMO: Harris will never in a million years run against Biden but more importantly, as fucked up as it is, a huge segment of stupid 'Mericans will never vote for a woman. So neither Harris nor Whitmer are viable options at this five-alarm fire stage.
Worldwide website. The world leans farther left than Biden (except for the oppressive "bad" countries, most of which censor internet use, or block open communication sites like these). American conservatives are the lunatic fringe Right comparatively. I dont think bashing anti-Biden is too productive, because it doesnt allow for legitimate discourse. Given the current state of affairs, I can understand it strategically...but it leads down a bad road.
Now who is Russian bot?
