Abigail Disney, the granddaughter to Roy O. Disney, who cofounded The Walt Disney Company, told CNBC on Thursday that she plans to withhold donations to the party she has funded for years until Biden drops out. The president has said he has no plans to withdraw from the race, despite calls for him to do so.
“I intend to stop any contributions to the party unless and until they replace Biden at the top of the ticket. This is realism, not disrespect. Biden is a good man and has served his country admirably, but the stakes are far too high,” Abigail Disney said in a lengthy statement to CNBC. “If Biden does not step down the Democrats will lose. Of that I am absolutely certain. The consequences for the loss will be genuinely dire.”

Nomination from the people? We never had a choice in the first place.
Primaries work, but nobody votes in them. We got Clinton because she won the primaries in 2016, we got Biden because he won the primaries in 2020.
The 2016 primary was super delegate bullshit
In the 2016 DNC Primaries:
15,805,136 people voted for Hillary Clinton before considering Delegate allotment, 16,847,084 after.
12,029,699 people voted for Bernie Sanders.
If we didn’t have a nation of 340 Million Fuckwits then maybe we could get more than 5% of the population to select our future leaders.
Oh, come on. You can’t justify a corrupt process by pointing to the final results of the corrupt process.
No but I can justify a democratic process by pointing to the much much higher number of people voting for the candidate who won.
…In an unfair election with the organizing body tipping the scale all throughout the process. So no, you can’t point to the votes to wave away the corruption that influenced those votes.
Lmao
That’s like claiming McDonalds makes the best burger because they sell the most.
You’re literally making an argument against bare definition democracy, right now.
