I am always skeptical when I hear leftists echoing the same talking points as far right hacks. These are folks I would expect to be in unison on this point. They are ideologues. That’s fine, that’s their job.

Ideologically, the points are well taken. I too wish for a more progressive president. I’m not excited about Biden, either. I can live through four more years of Biden if that’s what’s to come.

Beating Trump is most important.

I’m of the firm belief that Biden can do that (he’s already done it once), and that he is the best situated to do it. That’s based on the conventional wisdom. Yes, it’s the same conventional wisdom that lost the election for Hillary in 2016, but also won it for Biden in 2020. Biden’s campaign apparatus is in place and switched on. He’s on the ballot. He’s got the backing. To try and change that now seems insurmountable.

Abeyance, I think you mean.

That was also an AstroTurf campaign to outrage white voters.

Just stop with this GOP-astroturf “replace Biden” campaign.

There were no challengers, exactly. Someone could have challenged him.

Fuck themmm.

What? There is no liberal media.

Name recognition doesn’t win elections.

Money does.

They are not looking for anyone else.

States only had primarys if they were legally required to.

Your post is not true dude. They cannot rewrite the rules like that. Any changes they make would not take effect until the next election.

Listen. Biden is not going to step out. Anyone saying that this is a likely scenario is flat out delusional and has no idea what they are talking about, or they are a Trump supporter trying to sew chaos.

Yes. There are 450 mi of tunnels according to Hamas in an area only 25 mi. wide.

It’s the most advanced tunnel warfare system in the world. It has been under construction in various forms and stages since the '50s. It was built with money from Iran, North Korea, Qatar, and other beacons of human and civil rights. It is hopelessly intertwined with Gaza’s water and electrical systems. It’s the crowning achievement of gaza’s current government.

It represents all of gaza’s lost hope. Gaza would be deep in food right now if maybe they spent money on highways instead of tunnels. If maybe they spent money on ports instead of tunnels, had used their international relations for trade and diplomacy, instead of terror financing and tunneling.

But also due probability, I simply trust the IDF explanation about a million more times than I trust the explanation of anyone who supports Hamas’s ideology. It’s not only an ideology of violent radicalism, it is also an ideology of a lying and propaganda. According to them, nobody is a terrorist And no buildings are connected to tunnels, every building is a hospital or mosque or home for orphans, and every person is an innocent child.

I’m very sure that Israel has some liars in charge right now. I simply trust the liars from the democracy more than the liars from the fascist religious ethno State, the sole function of which is to proliferate anti-jewish terrorism.

I don’t know that this particular building had a tunnel under it. Neither does anyone else here.

Oh boohoo, my team didn’t win everything it wanted so I’m going to take my ball and go home.

Still by far the most progressive president in my lifetime.

The other factor is that the incumbent lost in 2020, to the 2024 incumbent.

Like wtf. People saying he can’t do it. He already did it once.

Grow up.

This is why the right came for Chevron, they can buy Congress. Much harder to buy a whole agency.

Before Chevron there was Skidmore Deference, and they came for that.

Maybe I should have said they’ve been coming for all deference. Or ~50 years, for the pedants.

Ideological successors. Agree with your post.

They’ve been coming for Chevron for at least 50 years, but they also fight regulation at every turn.

Dumbo, people supporting trump aren’t supporting civil rights, lol. Sorry you’re a know-nothing.

I stand by my harsh terms. I have zero problems with black people, but you have to be a special kind of dumbass to live the black experience in America and be a conservative. It is k my bh miseducation, ignorance, and fear, that they can happen. Sorry you’re not smart enough to understand.

Maybe he just knows more than you about this, and you’re the one that’s got it wrong.
