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.

    Respectfully you should open your eyes, ignore your hate and actually critically look at what he has done.

      I have opened my eyes and saw he’s helped kill over 180k people in Gaza and the West Bank. his proxy war in Ukraine has killed untold Ukrainians and Russians. And that’s just the start

        It’s not lost on most everyone here- how you shit on Biden, and thinly allude to hating Trump equally.

        What everyone ALSO knows- is that you know no one here is voting for Trump anyway… so there’s no reason to publicly support him when all you need to do is urge people to not vote against him.

          I actively encourage anyone to withhold a vote from Trump or Biden, they may have different names, but the policies are the same and they’re paid by the same corporations and bankers. We get shit on, tossed breadcrumbs, and liberals call it the most progressive thing ever. They’re afraid to speak out against the corruption that they see for fear of losing their breadcrumbs.

            Biden and Trump policies are nowhere NEAR the same, not even in the same universe the same.

            A Biden supreme court would never have struck down Roe Vs. Wade.

            Biden would never tell Putin “Do whatever the hell you want.”

            https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/10/politics/trump-russia-nato/index.html

            As much as Biden supports Israel, he would never tell them to “finish what they started, and they’ve got to finish it fast, and we have to get on with life.”

              A Biden supreme court would never have struck down Roe Vs. Wade.

              Direct Democrat action has led to 3 of those conservative justices currently sitting on SCOTUS

              he would never tell them to “finish what they started

              Continuing to send weapons and money is allowing Israel to finish the job.

                Democratic INACTION. Not action.

                Republicans actively placed those judges on the court.

                    No, again, Biden failed to take action which allowed Thomas to be confirmed.

                I’m surprised you’re not defending Russia and blaming the US for Russia’s actions in Ukraine.

                We aren’t talking about who was President, we’re talking about policy differences and you cannot say, in any reality, that Trump and Biden are on the same side when it comes to abortion or judicial appointments.

                  You cannot say, in the real reality, that a President Biden will affect these issues. Facts are facts.

                    The President does in fact nominate Supreme Court members, and there is a real chance that both Thomas and Alito will be gone before 2028.

                    Who do you trust to replace them?

            So you openly admit that you’re here to disrupt an election.

            The truth comes out. Was that so hard?

              By telling people not to vote for the people that I do not support? You telling everyone that their vote is wasted if it’s not going to Biden is a form of voter suppression and a clear disruption of the election process

                Okay man. You admitted that you’re actively trying to disrupt an election. It’s a known fact that non-votes support Trump. Don’t play dumb. This is a proven fact.

                I’m no longer responding to you in good faith as you aren’t here in good faith.

        Supplying weapons in Israel is horrible.

        Russia invading Ukraine is not a proxy war, it’s helping Ukraine defend itself from an invading country.

          This is 100% proxy war, a mere escalation of the civil war that’s been occurring in the Donbas

            Russia invaded Ukraine.

            Ukraine is defending themselves from an invading country.
