We all knew Biden wasn't capable of going 4 more years, well before the debate. Pretty sure most in his cabinet was aware of that too. The debate performance convinced everyone at that point. His closest inner circle didn't allow it. How many families would want to admit that and give up on him for what he lived his life for? I plan to fight until the day that I die for my family for much lower power/pride/etc.
Voters in many primaries were voting undecided or other in Dem primaries to show descent. Polls among Dems were something like 70% wanting him to drop out. Both candidates are far too old and far too out of touch with the average American. One admitted to it finally and stepped aside. The other still can't admit that he LOST the last election, yet admit he is far too old and out of touch. He will do the same BS when he gets destroyed in this election.
Policy wise, the platform is half horrible and half status quo governing on one side. The other side runs a different platform that is half horrible and half status quo governing. I think most Americans that aren't in the bases of each party feel similar. They want someone that they can relate to and willing to vote the other party for that. Haley vs. Biden would have been a bloodbath. The same will happen with Harris vs. Trump.
Is it "they" that has Trump in the race, where MAGA will definitely lose? I mean, Haley getting in would have been a landslide victory???
Is it "they" that would have picked whatever candidate won, if Biden decided to not run for reelection during the primary? Pretty sure the sediment was that "they" chose Obama, Clinton and Biden, no? Pretty sure many would say it was “they” that selected whoever.
Is "they" maybe just a convenient excuse?
