After stating Biden needs to get in front of voters more, she told the MSNBC hosts, "I would suggest that the response of that very small number of Democrats that have really come out after the president, and some of the media folks that have really come down on him since the election have done more damage and more harm than the president himself did during that debate."
"For me, and millions of Americans like me, this election is about the future of our country. It is about democracy, it is about getting away from the imperialistic, criminal presidency of Donald Trump and making sure that our children have a future that we can feel good about and be proud of," she explained.
She added, "It naive to think that at this point in the process you can switch candidates and still defeat Donald Trump. It is naive to think that the Democratic party will come out of a contested convention more united and stronger than they are today. "
"I think there is a lot more damage being done by folks other than Joe Biden when you look at how folks are reacting to this," she concluded.

It's been instructive to watch The Washington Post focus their energies on taking out Biden.

Focus on just the still photos that the media uses. My husband and I plaid special attention to them.

Turning off the radio and putting down the newspaper didn't stop Germany and unplugging won't stop Trump.

And if Biden and WE in the grassroots tell them to go fuck themselves? They can't just "remove" him. Not their choice.

It's sad. While I fully understand standing up for Biden and wanting him to stay in the race, it's getting fanatical...

I feel the need to step lightly when I visit DU recently. That should say a lot about where we are.
