After the president’s disastrous debate performance, some want to drop him as the party nominee. But it’s not so simple

    They had a primary in 2020.

    Biden won.

    When was the last time there were primaries for a party with an incumbent president?

      States only had primarys if they were legally required to.

      When was the last time we had a dicking potato running the country? It’s like everything we’re seeing now is the Biden that’s always been, and that’s what the DNC chose to push on us

            He’s amazing compared to the competition.

            We should be concentrating on getting a young nominee in for the next election.

              I heard that 8 years ago, then 4 years ago, right now, and I’m sure I will hear it again in another 4 years I’m sure.

                Instead of being negative, look into the candidates and donate to the ones your like, advocate for them and volunteer your time to their campaigns.

                Help with the change you want to see.

              Liberal should elect Trump and push him left after the election

                  That’s the bullshit that liberals claimed they would do in 2020 with Biden and never did. So here we are

                    Biden’s had some bad policies but he’s had much more good ones.

                Still waiting on that pivot?

                Good luck with that.
