An alternative is needed. The search in the nearest old people’s home has probably already begun.

Sorry for the sarcasm…

DNC staffer, screaming into the phone: “What do you mean Jimmy Carter won’t take our calls?”

Not entirely unexpected

Just FYI so you don’t get ‘gotchaed’, Trump isn’t the oldest nominee ever. Neither was Biden. Record is still held by Peter Cooper from the reconstruction era who was 84 when nominated.

(also wild beard on that guy

Nobody cares, Trump is so old and decripit it’s a miracle he can still walk.

The last thing anybody wants is Trump pulling it out and calling all the headlines lies. Surprised Biden never did actually

Got_Bent ,

And naturally it looks like Mike Johnson will lead legal challenges to a new Democrat candidate being on the ballot in battle ground states.

kandoh ,

That might be too ugly a look even for a republican.

Got_Bent ,

There’s a whole thread about it somewhere on Lemmy. I don’t think anything is too ugly a look, especially after attempts to keep Trump off the ballot in Colorado because of his thirty four felony convictions. It’ll be all both sides rhetoric again.

MutilationWave ,

Not for him. He’s the speaker of the house from a deep red district.

ByteOnBikes ,

I’m going to bet the combination of his weak debate, as well as what happened to Trump, pushed this.

Absolutely some nutter is looking for some payback.

dditty ,

Well it is a huge opportunity to steer media coverage away from Trump, which will likely be the most effective tactic at the moment

callouscomic ,

If he was gonna do this, why not announce it a year ago? Idiotic lack of political savvy. RBG levels of idiocy clinging to your post and ignoring the greater good.

I love the chaos. Everyone can now have a candidate they didn’t really ever vote for, and it’ll be appalling if THIS is the way we finally get the first woman president.

Biden must have received some sign from the Lord. I am confident he would have made for a great 2nd term, but I would also feel bad for his final legacy to be that he handed the election to Trump despite his 1st term successes.

This is your moment, America. It’s in your hands now to see it through in November, kick Trump out no matter who the Democratic nominee will be.

I’ll be keeping an eye on those particular accounts on Lemmy that were constantly calling for resignation, whether anyone as presidential nominee will satisfy them.

Ensign_Crab ,

Biden must have received some sign from the Lord.

Well, Manchin told him to drop out…

goldenlocks ,

To every one of you in here who spent the last year defending him: shut the fuck up. It was obvious he is a senile segregationist piece of garbage. You need to reevaluate all your political opinions.

LemmyLingo ,

I’m seriously looking forward to the HBO drama about the first election campaign, Jan 6th, the Biden presidency, and then the second campaign in twenty years. It’s gonna go so hard.

capital ,

Waiting for the “you’re gonna vote for a cop?” comments on Lemmy in regards to Harris.

MutilationWave ,

They’re already here. I hate the fucking cops but damn right I’ll vote for one over fascism.

Let’s gooooo! Harris/AOC, maybe? That would be wild

HomerianSymphony ,

No chance. Maybe Harris/Kelly.

MutilationWave ,

They’ll never run two women. It’s too risky. Don’t get me wrong I’d love it.

Fair amount of schadenfreude at the panic right now, having been shouted down for weeks for telling people they should stop self-indulgently and anxiously begging Biden to step aside, since he already beat Trump and has gained a lot of allies through progressive legislation.

I’m very curious who the DNC is going to dredge up since the only person who could unite the left is Bernie Sanders and the DNC has previously explicitly declined him.

Enjoy laying in the bed you’ve made, every short-sighted doofer who asked for this.

kandoh ,

You guys have delusional views on Bernie Sanders.

Varyk ,

In what way?

kandoh ,

You think he’s more popular than he is, younger than he is, and more unwilling to compromise his values than he is.

Varyk ,

Zero out of three for you.

You’re projecting.

I know the first two and there is plenty of counterevidence for the third.

Popular - he is

Old - doesn’t matter

Compromises values - mountains of counterevidence over half a century of progressive politics.

Do you have any evidence to suggest relevance to your comment?

criitz ,

Bernie is popular with the left (including me) but not Democrats at large (and definitely not with the right). He didn’t get nearly enough support in 2016 to make it. He’s definitely not one to compromise his values though, I don’t know where the commenter got that idea.

Varyk , (edited )

If he was endorsed by the DNC, I doubt he would have any trouble sweeping the election.

Perfect for trump too, he confounds and infuriates the conservatives but can’t be flapped.

There’s some dumb “not enough” crap kooks are spreading about AOC and Sanders not being left for not literally firebombing the white house over Palestine.

Such a ridiculous remark is likely tangential to that or a similar fabrication.

kandoh ,

Popular — he lost to Hilary Clinton

Old — clearly age does matter

Compromises values — Voted for the ACA with no public option (which he promised he wouldn’t do)

Varyk ,

Wildly wrong again, keep swinging.

  1. Incorrect and irrelevant
  2. Incorrect, especially now.
  3. He literally voted to help millions of people access healthcare. Which are his consistent values.

Geez, you’re terrible at this.

kandoh ,

Citations needed

blahsay ,

Harris has less chance than Biden. Literally just grab a Labrador, put a blue tie on him and let him do the job - better chance getting elected than Harris.

Idk why you’re being downvoted, this is undeniable. To be clear, I don’t mind her. But most people find her bland and irritating. She has no personality.
