I think the thought process is that Trump will definitely win now no matter who runs against him, so it's better to let Joe go down to defeat than getting the stink of loserdom on any other Democrat who could've taken his place. They're throwing in the towel and letting Biden lose, which says a lot about their seriousness about "the most important election in our lifetimes."

Yeah...I don't know how libs keep letting dems slide with such obvious bullshit. That's pretty much the only logical reason to not try and do SOMETHING drastic now

Bingo. Trump's fist pump in the air sealed the deal. Every Democrat is now going to coax Biden into eating that giant L on election day while preparing for 2028.

It's really something that Mr. Let's Do an adventure-time very likely has ensured the very thing he was trying to prevent.

Isn't it ironic? Don't ya think? It's like RAY-E-AAAAAAIN

The shit is that if Sanders either got the nomination or grew a pair of balls big enough so he would run as an independent, he would beat both in a landslide

I doubt it, honestly. His moment has passed.

In 2020 this was 100% true, now he's old news (emphasis on being decrepit)
