Sounds like we got 42 more days to name a candidate...
Why the fuck are we pretending this is only Biden's decision though?
The DNC can nominate anyone they want, and Biden already said he doesn't care if trump wins.
So why does Biden get to insist he's the candidate? Especially when every metric and data point we have, shows Biden won't be able to pull it off?
This election is more important than an 81 year olds personal beliefs and if "Lord God" has told him to drop out or not
Pushing forward with Joe is damn near suicidal at this point.
Biden said he doesn't care if Trump wins? What?
Genuinely curious how you're surprised by this
Why I'm surprised by a candidate saying they're ok with their felonious opponent winning the election? I'm genuinely curious how you're genuinely curious that I'm surprised by that.
I think Biden's response to the question is being slightly misrepresented, but it's certainly not the kind of response I'd want to hear, especially as a followup to the debate.
Biden ran on a platform of working with the fascists I don't know why you're surprised he's good with them in power.
