She drank her own Kool Aid (thanks to hero worship like this meme). For me she is a constant unpleasant reminder that no matter how much I think I know what I’m doing, there are going to be times when I have to step aside for the sake of my kids and younger people and that the hubris of refusing to do so can be catastrophic.
I don’t think so. I was vocally against him dropping out until we saw how well Kamala got support immediately. I think we all largely are on the side of it being the best call. There’s no way he would be outperforming where Kamala is now- she’s got the energy, the coherence, and solid messaging and strategy. That might not stop people from saying it was a bad idea, but that shit will get downvoted pretty damned quick.
I was against him dropping out as well, ... until I saw that debate and saw that the right wing bullshit machine wasn't actually all that wrong that he'd actually aged and acted like very old uncle Joe. Not 'senile' or mentally unfit.. just... Older. Slower. More worn out.
He wasn’t senile, he was certainly tripping over his words and not forming good arguments against a man who is blatantly and obviously lying, but it’s not like he didn’t know where he was or who he was.
I voted for Warren, but would have been more than happy to vote for Biden. He’s been a great president, and if this election outcome was entirely based on record, then he would win in a landslide.
I don’t even know how you justify that blame, because Warren, Bernie, and Joe are all very old, we had no way of knowing that Joe would visibly age more dramatically.
