Nope. Because now the party is in real disarray. Mark my words: if Trump wins, it will be because of what happened today. And the democrats are to blame. Yes, yes, Russia, China, Iran, all doing an excellent disinformation campaign, yes, yes, the GOP is compromised, etc. But ultimately, the democrats opened the floodgates of opportunity for Trump to win “because the gates looked too rusty and we need to replace them.”
Biden was fine. And I didn’t even like Biden. I would have preferred Sanders over him or Clinton. But we know what the elite dems did to him.
Biden was far better of a President than I thought he’d be. But the way our dumb media works, and the way our elections are done, there is almost no way he was going to win after that debate performance. Then pile on the performances after that.
Trump and lie, lie, lie and openly state he’s going to be a dictator out for personal vendettas and the “liberal media” is going to maybe mention that, then move on to talking about how frail and senile Biden is. Even if he’s only lost a bit of his edge.
Let’s have a primary of sorts, and pick the candidate that can most likely WIN.
See, that’s the issue with this country. There is a dude who dry-humps all your moms without their consent, and calls her a whore, on one side, oh, but the dude who is trying to stop the dry-humping is the one who’s not good because “the debate!!!”
I really don’t see how this has any real negative effect. A large portion of voters would vote for my dog over Trump, and every one of those voters will happily switch over to Harris. And now we have a sharper more energetic candidate to win over the rest. And everyone always says a month = 10 years in politics, so 4 months should be plenty of time.
I just hope you’re right, man.
They were going to lose if he stayed in.
No, they weren’t. But anyway, it doesn’t matter at this point. We will never know.
Who was saying they weren’t?
The people who mattered. Including the academic who has correctly predicted all presidential elections (except for the Bush/Gore one.)
But anyway, I really hope that this Harris renewed wave is truly substantial.
Which is who? The ones who mattered got him to step down.
I don’t know, man. I just hope this plays out well - it seems to be the case so far. Crossing fingers.
I’m definitely more hopeful now, especially with the conversations happening, the coverage the Democrats are getting, and the fact that there is energy around the campaign.
