That's what he should do, now let's get back to reality, that's never going to happen. That would require the geriatric fucks who put us into this godforsaken mess in the first place to admit that they just might have been, wrong and to give up their power to someone new. They'd rather die and leave the country in turmoil than do what's right. And it's across all three branches of government, it's not anything exclusive to the Congress critters. Just look at how we got our current Republican controlled SCOTUS. These fuckers aren't going to leave on their own, they need to be forced out.

That literally just happened?

Show me where there is anything even close to an admission of being wrong? Where is he saying that running again was a mistake and that the party needs to be looking to younger members to take them into the future?

Biden isn't apologizing for the waste of campaigning up to this point. He got COVID again and combined with the massive push due to the clearly pertinent age-related health questions, there's just no option to keep going. He's only dropping his bid because it's being forced.

He's not leaving because he wants to, or because he's had any sort of realization.

Regime is gonna regime this

There is NO practical way to affect any of this. We can chose trump or Harris and neither of then is going to be anything of sorts.

Can't even get annual or maternity leave. Shit ain't even on the agenda lol
