23. The incombent doesn't "almost always win"

Thu Jul 18, 2024, 12:50 PM

Jul 2024

Ask George HW Bush, ask Jimmy Carter - they didn't lose because they were "so awful".

If the Democratic Party selects a candidate, it is because they sincerely feel that that candidate has a better chance of winning than Joe does. It is unprecedented to have an 81 year old presidential candidate show signs of cognitive decline the way Joe did in the debate and afterward making comments like calling Zelensky "President Putin" and Kamala Harris "Vice President Trump".

Adam Schiff is not being swayed by "Putin money" in voicing his opinion. He has the same motivation as you that it's a nightmare if Trump returns to office and he's trying to back a candidate that he feels offers the best chance of avoiding that.

If the Democratic party unites behind another candidate and Joe gives it is backing, it is imperative that all of us give that candidate our full support.
