Hey man I've been dealing with the shitty outcomes of the politicians who lead this party being unwilling to listen to the public until well after the public has been proven right for my entire adult life.
I said Biden was too old in 2020. He's even too older now. The party didn't give a fuck and has spent their time hiding it and fucking us out of having primaries.
Who do you think will choose the new candidate? The same super delegates who gave us Hillary Clinton? It won't be a people's vote at the convention, it will be delegates, many of which are party apparatchiks.
Do you think the people who hid Biden's issues this late in the game will suddenly make a good choice? I don't. The party fucked us into this position and I do not think they are capable of unfucking us, sorry. Biden is who we have, alive or dead.

Hey I'm not the one pretending that the same people who fucked this up can save us. That's you. I'm just accepting where we're at.
You gotta be naive if you think the party is going to hand the reigns to the people now after *checks notes... about thirty years of this shit.
But sure, have the party replace Biden with another fucking loser just like him, we'll see how that goes.
If they do replace him, it will just be with Kamala. The only thing up in the air would be who to appoint as her running mate.
IMO they should just do it ASAP. I honestly think Kamala would attract way more voters than Biden. She certainly has her issues but no worse than Biden's and she's way better on optics.
