    Don’t have Biden run for reelection. Pick any other half decent human and they should win.

        The American way. See a problem, wait until it’s too late to fix said problem, point fingers at a scapegoat for why the problem wasn’t solved earlier, and repeat.

          The problem is that the act of swapping candidates will seem to be so entirely clueless that whoever steps up to the plate is bound to lose.

          Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. No one will spoil their chances for 2028 by being a late entry now. The democratic party is hunkering down for 4 more years of Trump is suspect.

            They are not bound to lose.

            That is a statement that is being pushed, along with the whole Biden “Over prepared” thing as a talking point to push why we have to stick with a dementia-addled genocidal asshole.

            It’s simply not a true statement. You’re stating an opinion as fact, and it’s misleading as shit.

            The second someone else gets picked is the second that they (Whoever they are) have name recognition and people will consider that person.

              I hope you’re right. I want you to be right. And I agree at this point the Democratic Party ought to try - damn, they’re losing anyway so they might as well try.

              My worry is that an alternative candidate that is worth their salt AND want to run against Trump can’t be found. I hope I’m wrong.

            The only clean way to do it is for Biden to step down put Kamala in by default and let anyone who wants to run in 2028 fight for the new VP spot. Most voters thought this was the plan anyways in 2020. That said Biden’s not going to step down so they aren’t doing shit.
