In reply to the discussion: Senator Sherrod Brown calls for JoeBiden to drop out of the race for president. [View all]PikaBlue
(176 posts)34. Joe Must be Putting Up a Fight
As the hours tick by, we can see the pressure to step down is ramping up. Definitely a coordinated effort by our party. I can only surmise that Joe is putting up a fight or they wouldn't continue to breadcrumb the messages. Kamala's phone call with donors will probably be the breaking point. Isn't it so ironic? In order to "save" democracy, our party nullifies our votes, duplicitly removes the legitimately elected candidate, and will slip in the one or ones that a handful of donors are willing to pay for. Breaks my heart.

I call bullshit. You are just continuing your smearing of Brown. No chance Brown would ever say:

Bollocks. A 3 week old anonymous account smearing Brown as a corporate tool w/ nothing backing up the smear is sus AF.

your timeline is off, the D-Day memorial in Normandy was weeks before Moulton called for Biden to drop out

When they met in Normandy, Biden had no clue Moulton would tell him to drop out in the future

Biden cannot time travel. Moulton had NOT yet called upon Biden to drop out when they met in Normandy.

But it certainly doesn't help the public perception of Biden's ability to continue.

Polls show two-thirds of Democrats think Joe should drop out. So, yes, his constituents matter.

Have you looked at the polls on that question? In most of them, a large majority of Dems (even higher for indies)

We might end up not having a democratic candidate on a ballot in OH because of the deadline.

It's a strange statement, but I think it's because he went out of his way not to criticize Biden.

There's something going on. My guess is something medical. I hope not, of course, but that's what I think is going on.
