The set of Democrats who think he should reconsider his decision to stay in the race has grown to include aides, operatives and officials tasked with guiding his campaign to victory.

    If he does decide not to run again what are you going to post about going forward?

      Probably about how the Dems replaced Biden with the wrong candidate or something like that.

        I mean it will almost certainly be Harris and then the news media would walk as close to the sexist line as they can with criticisms.

        Look at what’s already been said by her by normally left leaning outlets, they tear her down all the time

      I know I’ve blocked Ozma before. I’m certain of it This should prevent me seeing their posts, right? Is blocking users something a server admin can disable?

      Keep hammering on the criticisms of our politicians and government.

          There’s plenty more in the Dem party to go after. If Trump/GOP wins, I’ll be going after them too.

            You’d wait until they win to go after the GOP?

            Why not start now?

              They’re not in power and also, I do share links about Trump and the GOP.

                I took you for what you were saying, should I not do that?

                  I’m far left. I’m not a Dem or Republican. Politicians are not our friends. Not somebody you “want to have a beer with.” They work for us. We need to hold their feet to the fire.

                    You are so far wrong. Do you understand? You do understand how little you accomplish?

                    Do you get the “fire” and “feet” are things you make up to feel good? You hold what to where?

                    I didn’t ask about any of that and I don’t really care even after you told me.

                    I asked you why you would wait until the GOP wins to criticize them.

                    That seems like closing the barn doors after the horses left.

                I don’t think it’s right to say that Republicans aren’t in power just because they don’t currently have the presidency.

            The problem is. You can and should hammer the parties regardless of who has the presidency. You don’t. And it’s odd.

                Conservatives hold the house and the current regressive activist Supreme Court It also takes longer to build up administration than to destroy it. We’re still clawing our way back from 2016

                They both are. Republicans control the house and much of the senate. Effectively control the judiciary. Democrats don’t control much even when they have a majority and strictly only control one of 3 branches of government at the moment.

        There’s two candidates now, the way the system works is you vote for one or the other.

        Now if you want a different person you pick someone in the next primary and volunteer in their campaign and donate money to them.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
