And yet, instead of answering a simple question, you’ve launched into a ‘if only we could change the past’ screed.
If there was a good answer to the question, people like you would just answer.
Comment on why isn't anyone calling for Trump to drop out.
ShepherdPie@midwest.social 4 months agoI don’t understand how this is supposed to be like some ‘gotcha’ question. Biden wasn’t a strong candidate in 2016 and lost to Hillary, who then lost to Trump. He wasn’t a strong candidate in 2020 which is why he barely squeaked by Trump to victory. He’s an even worse candidate in 2024 which is why Trump again has a shot at the presidency.
None of this is new information and the party has has nearly a decade to find a good candidate, yet they keep foisting some of the most unlikable people upon us election afrer election after election. It almost seems as if they’re doing it on purpose at this point. It’s not our fault that they’ve waited until the 11th hour to listen to the complaints and even acknowledge what we’ve all been saying for years. If Biden loses again maybe stop looking at leftists to blame and start looking at the people in charge of this private organization deciding the fate of us all.

That isn’t a “if we could only change the past screed,” it’s calling the party leadership out for allowing things to get to this point. Where in a bus barreling toward the edge of a cliff while the driver has been ignoring our pleas to turn literally any other direction. Now we’re feet from the edge and you want to chastise us for not giving an exact direction earlier and happily plummet over the cliff with the driver.

That’s a long way to go to avoid a question, several paragraphs and you can’t even come up with one name.

Fine: Bernie. Happy now that you’ve got a name?
Fucking Internet lefties and demanding someone have all the answers or they’re not worth listening to

Ignoring the rest of my comment to make me look like I’m demeaning all people on the left and not a specific subset of people who argue in bad faith like yourself?
Also a classic move by those same people!

Bernie? The only potential candidate even older than the two in contention?

Did I say he was perfect?
I simply provided a name when the bad faither’s pretended like that was the essential part of the argument at hand
