Key quotes:
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) met with President Biden Thursday night to relay the sentiments of the House Democratic Caucus regarding his reelection bid, as concerns grow within the ranks about the incumbent’s ability to beat former President Trump in November.
The meeting — revealed in a letter to colleagues Friday morning — came after Jeffries spoke with a large swath of House Democrats in the two weeks since last month’s debate, which prompted concerns about Biden’s viability at the top of the presidential ticket. . The meeting took place after Biden’s high-stakes press conference that evening, a source familiar told The Hill.
Jeffries said he passed along the “full breadth” of thoughts he heard within his caucus.
Pick the old man or pick the Nazis
Pick the old man or pick the old man who is a Nazi. Seems like a pretty easy choice to me.
Trump is 78, he’s fucking old too.
Happy to pick the old man if he is the nominee, but we’re not there yet. There is still a lot of time to have someone that can actually beat the Nazi.
Biden could die and I’d still vote for him, or whoever the non-fascist nominee was.
I would literally vote for a piece of fly encrusted dog shit than a fucking fascist.
Let’s put that to the test, shall we?
Mother needs him home by supper
If he wasn’t such a bigoted homophobe that caused an AIDS epidemic in Indiana I misght almost have pity for the man.
But he is and I don’t.
To be fair, the Nazi is also an old man
A diaper wearing old man.
No offense to the incontinent, I’m just going to have to insist that fascist “strongmen” at least be not quite that obviously fraudulent. It’s embarrassing.
Pick the old man as nominee, and you’ll get the Nazis in January.
Or literally any other Democrat.
The choice is not, nor has it ever been, binary.
It’s always been binary, thats how FPTP works.
Blue Maga == Believing literal fantasy
If you vote for a third party in November you are helping Trump win. The primaries are over. It’s either Biden or whomever the DNC picks now. There are 2 options, 1 of which might be up in the air.
The primaries never really happened, Biden was the only candidate to be on all the ballots. The next closest was only in slightly more than half.
During the primary it was “shame on you don’t primary an incumbent! That’s bad!”
Now it’s “oh look at the primary! Shame on you!”
Biden can’t beat Trump. Hell, he can’t even keep his own VP straight. If you think it doesn’t matter… it does. The confusion caused by a gaff when responding to a crisis is rather significant. Being able to communicate clearly and decisively is a not-insignificant part of the job.
No one said that. This is you living in a fantasy.
You being vague and argumentative without clarification is trolling. Sad and lame.
No one suggested a third party candidate. You are projecting a false narrative onto what was said.
True dingdong, true
