    1. Every time this happened in the past, the party lost in a landslide
    2. The hand-wringing increases voter apathy, also helping the conservatives
    3. Undermining the candidate is a classic conservative move

    Maybe get with the programme and deal with stutters and stumbles when democracy is preserved, okay? Or do you lose a bonus?

      Man, numerous sitting Dem Congresscritters have called for Biden to step down. You don’t recover from that public loss of confidence. These are strange times - this may be the best choice going forward.

      He’s already losing in polls, and he himself has, clearly stated that at least fifty other democrats could beat Trump.

      This is not a conservative plot, it’s a very real push from concerned Americans to salvage a losing race.

      He should have never been in this situation. Watching videos of him recently have brought me PTSD from a recent death of a loved one who died from Louis Body Dementia. Not saying he has that, I’m saying the way he acts and moves just brings those memories backs.

      His polling has been plummeting for weeks, 60% of Democrats want him out, and party leadership is trying to force him to step down. At this point, you’re accusing people of being paid trolls for agreeing with Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff.
