I mean it sort of is, if Biden had dropped out earlier / never entered the race we could've had a primary and gotten a decent candidate who could've campaigned for more than 3 months.
Never forget that it was biden's hubris and stubbornness that got us into this mess.
No amount of Biden hubris makes up for the fact that the middle and "conservatives" just kinda forgot what 4 years of Trump was like.
Conservatives didn't forget, they spent four years waiting to bring him back.
The middle though...
In my entire life I have never been as free with "I told you so" as I'm going to be for the next four years, possibly longer than that.
If I end up dead in a ditch due to civil war, my final breath will be used to curse Trump, Republicans, and every fucker who brought this on.
Conservatives in quotes because I'm talking about the not so stupid people on the right who didn't want a shit show anymore and wanted their party back, supposedly. Turns out nope. They did want the shit show back.
It's my grandpa's fault that my dad hit me as a kid because my grandpa nutted in my grandma.
What? This isn't ancient history blaming Clinton or Carter for this. It's only been 6 months since Biden shit the bed on the debate stage and less than a year since he could've seen the many polls that said generic democrat was doing far better then him, dropped out and let the party have a primary.
Are you guys allergic to blaming anyone in the democratic establishment for the shit situation were in?
