The president often had a weak, raspy voice during his first debate against Trump, in what Democrats had hoped would be a turning point in the race.

    I agree. I’ll vote for Biden if I have to, but if Trump wins I’m not blaming RFK Jr like they blamed Bernie and Jill Stein in 2016. I’ll blame them and likely never vote for a majority political party again.

      If Trump wins you will never get to vote in a free and fair election ever again.

          This line of thought always amuses me. “It’s democrats faults for not stopping republicans from being horrible people”

          Oooooorrrrr maybe it’s republicans fault… for being horrible people?

          “It’s the fire departments fault my house burned down, not the guy who lit it on fire.”

            Republicans are horrible people. They gaslight, obstruct & project. Democracy is on the line here, so Democrats do the logical thing. They go to a nursing home and find someone that is talking about beating medicare to help lead them to victory.

        We heard this same talking point in 2016 but somehow we still had a 2020 election.

            As if it was successful. The US isnt a dictatorship, the president isn’t a dictator, and last time they tried to overwhelm it with force it did little to the political institutions of our country other than scare some politicians. The same body that was under attack voted against calling it a coup.
