I think they were arguing for stability (and against people arguing for AOC to jump in the ring), more than anything. Now there's a clear path forward.

It already seems like a done deal to me.

I questioned the idea of Biden dropping out via press release on a Sunday afternoon, but so far it has proven to be a masterstroke. They took advantage of a lull in the news cycle to completely control the narrative and present a united front in place of all the infighting we had just a day before.

The thing is, they've already turned the hate machine up to 11. There's not much farther they can go than here.

She'll be old enough before the inauguration, she's eligible.

True, but stranger things have happened. Peter Thiel and Caitlin Jenner exist, after all.

Originally had Nick Fuentes in there, but i found out he's not actually gay.

By the same token, Biden was tied for dead last in the 2008 primary. Things change.

Isn't she half-black and half-Indian? Or am I mistaken on that?

Regardless, the flame out of Bobby Jindal shows what those folks think of Indians anyway.

But I was talking about Israel and Palestine/Gaza.

Who did you think I was talking about when I said Trump was Bibi's bestie?

For future reference, Bibi is Benjamin Netanyahu. And if you don't know that, you should probably educate yourself a bit more before talking about Israel and Palestine/Gaza.

Trump is Bibi's bestie. There is absolutely no way on Earth he would do a damn thing to end the genocide. In fact, he'll happily cheerlead it, without even the token hand-wringing we get from Biden.

Hell, I would say Biden was the better candidate from a pro-Ceasefire stance, since, at the very least, he is vulnerable to pressure from the left to push for a ceasefire. Trump is not.

I think most of the "law and order" types might have a bigger problem with her being a black woman.

She'll have to be. Anybody else would be starting from square one, and that's a luxury we don't have right now.

Nickelback is never appropriate.
