        I mean, ultimately, I’m voting for whoever the democrats put on the ticket for that very reason. However, I would really like to see someone who has a chance of winning be on that ticket instead of just watching the train wreck happen in front of us.

          i dont want someone that old either. unfortunately, he is most likely to beat trump. can’t see harris winning cause she is a woman and a minority and this country is still very racist/sexist. i also predict biden would step down shortly after 2nd term. worst case of biden winning is he dies in office of old age

            Worst case of Biden is him losing like the polls indicate. Harris is not a suitable replacement either like you said. But there are plenty of others.

        You’re not wrong. But Trump is far more coherent than Biden. It’s all lies, but they were coherent lies at the debate.

                Fair point about not watching the debate because Trump pisses you off. I did watch the debate live. It’s not hyperbole, Biden was that bad. It felt like watching Biden lose the race in real time. He couldn’t form complete thoughts. I know he is normally a gaf machine, but this was different. It wasn’t struggling to find the right word, it was struggling to find a thought. It honestly reminded me of when my Grandma was struggling with brain cancer and how she struggled to speak. It was excruciating to watch because I’ve liked what he had done as president. Him staying in would have ruined his legacy and potentially undone everything he has fought for if Trump beat him.

                    I think you and I have very similar feelings about Biden. I donated to Bernie’s campaign and wasn’t happy when Biden won the primaries last go around. But overall, he did much better than I expected. His biggest blunders I think have been only supporting Ukraine enough to stay on their heels and not actually beat back the invasion and supporting Israel after they’ve shown they’re either committing genocide or they’re so incompetent they shouldn’t be fighting a war. Also, he ignored the border for too long, but I think any democrat would have made that mistake as well.
