Still riding with Biden. Defeating Trump has never been more critical. However, is Biden able to lead us? No other person in the Democratic party who could gain the support polls better in a matchup with Trump. Most do not even have broad name identification. Only VP Harris comes close, but even the caucus of black leaders support Biden as they check in this past week. They are realists. Mixing metaphors and placing our bets on an unknown within less than 150 days before the election is a crapshoot. It assumes unity in the replacement and no names on tongues poll better than in a head-to-head matchup with Trump, even right after the disaster of the debate. This fight over whether Biden can beat Trump has now given Trump more ammunition with this self-defeating shot in our own feet. The focus is no longer on democracy vs. dictatorship. We need to resolve this immediately, now. Once decided, Democrats need to put up or shut up and put every bit of energy to winning as if our democracy's life depends on it.
This party's internal debate has made it even harder for Biden to beat Trump. It is a gift handed to Trump's cult-rousing word salad. This fight over whether Biden can beat Trump has now given Trump more ammunition with this self-defeating shot in our own feet. The focus is no longer on democracy vs. dictatorship. We need to resolve this immediately. Once decided, Democrats need to put up or shut up and change the focus to the danger Trump represents to all that the majority of the country still holds sacred.
On the other hand, a sociopath narcissist goes off the teleprompter and just rambles on with nonsensical word salads and is only 3 years younger than Biden. Trump gets a free pass. Give me a break. How is the most unfit? Neither is at their best. However, the dangerous one, Trump, just keeps repeating the same hyperbolic racist and crowd rabble-rousing phrases that work so well in an audience of his loving believers who believe it is their second coming, and we just ignore it. Those who served with him say he was unfit for the job then and now. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/former-trump-officials-are-among-the-most-vocal-opponents-of-returning-him-to-the-white-house.
Biden is safer. We know where he is and what he supports, and he has a track record to illustrate it. He has a team and a political on the same policy tracks. We know where he is going. Trump's team has been revealed in Project 2025, chocked full of white Christian nationalists fondest unpopular, unsupported by the majority, dreams and a plan to replace all levers of government, including 50K civil servants, with their loyalists pledged to an extreme ideology instead of the rule of law. We also know where he is going this time, and it is continuing a democracy we have known for 250 years.
