To be fair this was kind of a new phenomenon, and nobody knew what would happen if Biden dropped out like that. I’m sure you were hoping to avoid a power struggle that just didn’t materialize. Plus a lot of the suggestions were kind of out there and not well known, so I can see why it would make sense to stick with Biden.
Yeah, honestly, I was dreading a whole avalanche of consequences that just… didn’t materialize. Even when I finally came around to Biden dropping out, I was certain that we were going to end up with a very brutal “DEMOCRATS IN DISARRAY” narrative from the media in addition to whatever ugliness emerged from figuring out who the candidate was without a new primary. And yet when it happened, it was almost… subdued. And the Trump campaign absolutely floundered on it.
Wasn’t hyped for Harris either, but Walz was a damn good VP pick, so I’m actually feeling almost positive. Almost. I mean, at the end of the day we shouldn’t be dealing with fighting this fascist shite in a fair and just world, but we deal with the hand we have, not the one we want.

Though I’m really glad you were wrong.
