Can we not have an existential threat to democracy every four years? That would be neat. Here’s an idea, actually fucking punish people who already tried to overthrow the government, and have promised to do it again. It’s utterly crazy that he is in the running again instead of behind bars.
Now you know how two thirds of Germans felt in 1933.
Hitler should have been hanged for trying to overthrow the government, but instead got just a cozy few months in prison (where he wrote Mein Kampf).
Also a reminder that the Germans who couldn’t be bothered to vote in that election didn’t get a chance to do so again for over a decade. And that was assuming they were even still alive after the holocaust and war.
Wtf do you want him to do? He loses the election in this hypothetical scenario. Do you want him to stage a coup? Refuse to leave office? How would that make him any better than dump?
His best is literally all he can do. If you feel that isnt good enough, that’s a completely separate discussion.
Well we want him to step down now so someone else with a better chance of winning can run instead. I think this attitude of well if I lost and all the bad stuff happens it’s alright cause I tried my hardest is just infuriating cause it would be literally his fault for not stepping aside and he’s not even willing to accept blame for that.
It’s the almost same shit that happened with SCOTUS/RBG, just the presidency this time.
This guy like most democrats is a waspy wet blanket. Couldn’t be more boring if he tried. On the other hand the right wing has perfected talking about nothing but looking good doing it. At least we took the HiGH rOaD
Yo why is Biden suddenly orange?
I don’t get why people are getting so incensed with this answer. It’s an election, it’s not fully in his control. If he thinks he’s the best candidate to beat Trump, and he runs his campaign the best way possible, and he still loses, then that is democracy and the will of the people has spoken and there was nothing he could have done.
It IS about saving democracy, and bodily autonomy, and the Supreme Court appointments, and he isn’t saying that it isn’t. He’s just saying all he can do is run the best campaign he can, and if the people still vote Trump then he accepts that decision.
You can quibble with his assumptions here, he might not be the best candidate to beat Trump anymore, but that’s the right answer.
They are asking him how he felt and he’s giving the same answer a fucking middle schooler would give about losing a track race. Don’t you think he should have other feelings and be a little more concerned?? He could be executed by Trump, or he and his whole family imprisoned. He is so far gone mentally he can’t even recognize this. It’s shocking and horrifying. It’s okay he’s accepting the “will of the people,” but it’s a very very very shallow answer for a very serious topic, to the point where I question his mental capacity.
You should question his mental capacity for numerous other reasons other than this answer. And the fact that this guy is the only reply to Trump, should had forced you to question the mental capacity of the majority of the population
