Time to post this again.
Pundits suggest replacing President Biden as the Democratic nominee because they don’t understand the job of the presidency or how conventions work. MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell gives a history lesson in governing in the age of television.
Thanks Laffy! In a nutshell, it's not going to happen.
So the choice is going to be between Biden, whatever your opinion if him, and a criminal conman rapist lunatic hell bent on destroying democracy.
Understand some people may not be happy about this choice, but that's what the alternatives will be.
Feel like that is certainly true of some people, but there seems to be a sizable percentage of sincere zealots who are so wrapped up in certain issues that they are willing to ignore the potential implications of their brinksmanship strategy, and just refuse to confront the binary nature of the alternatives before us. Hoping these folks are reachable. Ironically, these are the ones whose professed beliefs are most at odds with electing a criminal rapist dictator wannabe.
@GottaLaff I've been trying to add rebuttals and context posts to the flood of misleading posts from Bill Kristol on birdshite. But it's tiring and angering and probably useless since I am no one
He's been posting about dump Biden and crowing about the (flawed) NYT poll every half hour- literally flooding the feed to manipulate the algorithm
I don't know what better to do
@3x10to8mps Omg, F him.
And you’re not no one. You’re someone.
@GottaLaff Thank you I appreciate that so much :-)
But I have only a few hundred followers anywhere. My clarifications only get dozens of eyeballs and they need 1000s or more to counter one distortion. I wish there was a more efficient way 😖
@3x10to8mps I have 1000s of followers but most have 0 followers themselves, and also, only so many people see any given post at any given time.
I'm betting I'm not that widely read, even with 21,000 followers here.
I remember it well. I wasn’t there for the riots but I saw it on TV. No one remembers that Humphrey was gaining on Nixon toward the end of the election season. Had RFK not been assassinated, it would have been completely different. Somewhere during those years I lost all faith in the country & its society, which is probably why at this end of life I am a solitary hermit.
