This continued blather about calls for Biden to step down is beyond insane. Sheer political suicide. [View all]

If we lose Biden we lose incumbency and party unity which are predictive factors in winning presidential elections. The party will be thrown into complete chaos. How totally stupid. How completely insane to be thinking about such self-inflicted political suicide.

The other side has a total lunatic psychopath rapist and felon, and his party stands firmly with him. And way too many one our side are shitting their pants over one stupid debate when we have a president who has GOVERNED god damn well which is how people actually vote on presidential elections. It is complete insanity. All these wild scenarios and imaginary new candidates and campaigns while the other side is laughing their asses of at our side. This is totally nuts.

Lose Biden, and the orange rapist wins. Anyone who thinks otherwise does not know how presidential elections actually work.

The average person on the street doesn't give a crap about a fucking debate. The vast majority of people don't even watch them.

This is media-created stupid-hype and silly hysterical bed-wetting.
