Show me your shining alternative and I will vote. To be honest, you can't fracture me. I'm voting D. But these moderates absolutely will be waivered like a fair weather fan. Plus the last two times in the 60s and 70s when we did this we lost heavily. A lot of people voted in the primaries. We just gonna say fuck you your majority vote doesn't matter you aren't getting Biden? Okay.
Did you know Biden is the first Dem incumbent to lose even just one state/territory in their primary since Jimmy Carter?
Like, you don't think that maybe a candidate facing a challenge and then losing after pushing ahead anyways may be because only historically unpopular incumbents get challenged?
Speaking of historically unpopular candidates....
Do you know the last incumbent to run with close to Biden's approval 34% rating?
Also Jimmy Carter
Do you know how Jimmy Carter's second term went?
How about this. What's the lowest approval rating an incumbent still got a second term with?
Do you know what that is?
All those words and not a single one making any attempt at answering the question asked. You're supposed to have the script planned further ahead than that.
