Get a Grip, Democrats. You Can Still Win This | Washington Monthly - Lemmy.World

I’ll say it to I’m blue in the face:

Either party can guarantee victory by running literally anyone except Biden or trump.

*Obviously not Hillary tho

If Biden steps down, trump is toast if he stays.

If trump steps down, there goes Biden’s entire campaign.

Then name a name.

Who has that kind of charisma and name recognition, with no baggage, that they can storm in like the Koolaid man and take this election?

No? Yeah, I didn’t think so. You have been shitting on Biden every thread, even non-Biden related posts, and have never offered an alternative.

Cory Doctorow.
Lmfao
I’m entirely serious. The Republicans can rally around a criminal billionaire and still expect to take the white house, so why can’t the Democrats run an intellectual Canadian? I trust the guy that coined the term “enshittification” a whole lot more than the politicians who have been enabling it, anyhow.
If you’re “entirely serious” in the literal sense, just to be super clear the answer to “why can’t the Democrats run an intellectual Canadian?” is that a Canadian is disqualified from the office of the President in the Constitution. Unfortunately, they didn’t think to prohibit megalomaniac felons. That’s apparently on us. :(
The writers of the 14th Amendment did, but for some reason they figured the president didnt need to be called out specifically in the final draft; probably figured it was obvious the president is an officer of the state. But well, we know how scotus took that
