Nah. Nobody loved Biden. He was always "not Trump" primarily, and now we know how bad Trump 2 would be.

Anybody else would fill that role just as well. Personally I'd vote for a ham sandwich over Trump.

Yes, but you're still just picking the lesser of two evils.

Would it be so much to ask for to have a candidate who's only redeeming quality is not that they're less shit than the opposition? The ham sandwich is less shit than Trump, but it's still not good. I'm not convinced the democratic party will be able to find someone brilliant in their own right to run for president. They'll only be able to put in someone who isn't Trump.
