    Biden is just not a good candidate. Swap him out. Pull some one off the back benches if you need to.

    Only requirements are that they are breathing, and are eight years younger than normal retirement age, and they’ll likely be doing better than Biden is rn.

        Gretchen Whitmer.

        Jay Inslee.

        Ron Wyden or Jeff Merkley

        Fuck even Gavin fucking shit in my mouth Newsom.

        Thats just the west coast.

        Plenty of blue governors and senators from safe blue states that can do this.

        Also, we can look outside of government. I’m very serious that a Jon Stewart run would EASILY beat trump, and he’d be far better on the middle east.

      Oh you mean all of those people on the back bench that Biden beat once already?

      The people that, unlike Biden, have never beaten Trump in an election?

      The people who aren’t the incumbent president when history shows a very clear pattern of voters choosing to re-elect incumbents?

        So? Those people he beat keep sitting on the bench because candidates like Biden can’t permanently address the Republican party. You can either hand off the reigns to a smaller faction of the Democrat party or lose their votes. Make a choice.
