We need to accept reality [1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.'] Date: 2024-06-27 That was fucking horrific... I know algorithmically almost everyone who will see this will be sympathetic to the democratic cause. GOOD. You're the ones who need to start screaming from the top of your lungs that Joe Biden needs to swallow his pride and hand the reigns of the democratic nomination to a worthy successor. We just watched an honest, elderly man with integrity try to dam up a tsunami of bullshit and misinformation with carefully considered facts and counterpoints.... And it was a fucking disaster. It was embarrassing. You know it, I know it. With all the noise and controversy over Trump and what he represents, the most glaringly obvious truth about him (which Biden NEVER alluded to) is that all he cares about is himself and his own status, regardless of reality.... At this point, Biden's stubborn insistence on him being the best defense against the existential threat of trump is, in itself, a staggeringly ignorant and misguided embodiment of this SAME egotistical point of view. I take no pleasure in saying this. I watched a debate where every single word out of Trump's mouth was a lie... And he still was the CLEAR winner. This is not a joke, this is not supposed to be funny. We need to INSIST that Biden turn the nomination over to somebody who can actually deal with this fucking psychopath. He is not up to the job. End of story.
