Biden steps down, endorses Kamala

[x65943]

President Biden has officially dropped out and endorsed VP Kamala Harris

Kamala polls higher than Biden currently, it remains to be seen how the machinations of the DNC will officially nominate Harris, but it will likely still go ahead virtually before the convention in order to meet Ohio's election deadline

Well looks like we're playing that game again. First woman president or the end of times. Better choose correctly this time

Biden should have done this last year and given more time. This is hands down the stupidest decision he’s made. Hopefully it turns out well but I am not hopeful

Now Kamala Harris needs to endorse Hakeem Jeffries as her VP, and we'd be unstoppable.

It's joever

dementia progresses differently for different people and it wasn't clear a year ago he would be this debilitated now

When Biden wakes up tomorrow, boy is he in for a surprise.

He should have stepped down 3 years ago ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Can’t believe the GOP is running an old guy for president. Yikes.

he has done a great job, the country is stronger, the economy has recovered, inflation has subsided, he has supported our allies around the globe

almost nothing could have been done better - what people have to understand is he doesn't have a magic wand and post covid recovery was always going to be tough

best president in my lifetime

That's a nice sentiment but the reality is that it's been obvious for a very long time, years, and whenever someone points out a concerning incident they're ignored or spat upon by all the ostriches with their head in the sand. Joe Scarborough literally said "F you!" to any of his show's viewers that didn't agree that Joe Biden was as sharp and in control as he'd ever been. Collective denial and deceit.

It's true, and it's a smart move in terms of re-focusing the narrative. Only one old man with dementia left in the race.

I linked his official twitter account

as smarter people than I have said, if Biden stayed in the race it was clear at this point he would have to step down at some point even if he won

he isn't mentally sharp enough for 4 more years of the most mentally taxing job in the world

 

[Hanafuda]

And now the Democrat party can devote its attention to what can be, unburdened by what has been.

 

[Noctosphere]

Didn't Trump say that Biden should step down, but like 4 years ago, when Biden was 77, the age Trump is today?
