    The top of the wishlist of any reasonable and rational American should be, “Don’t permit a fascist demagogue to become a petty tyrant.” Biden fulfills that order handily, and if that’s not enough for someone to get them to vote for him, then the blame lies with that voter.

    Right now, today, supporting Biden any further is handing Trump a W.

    Biden has lost the election at this point. It would be the biggest election upset of ALL TIME if he came back to win it. No incumbent this far down in the polling has EVER won an election.

    If you truly want to stop Trump, stop brow beating people into supporting a lost cause and work to have a conversation around how we can get a better candidate. I think Shawn Fein.

      And Obama solidly lost his election against Romney if you looked at polls this far out. A strong case can be made that polls at this point are not predictive.

      I think Shawn Fein.

      Ignoring the fact that mine and most American’s immediate reaction to this is “Who?”, the fact that he has zero experience in elected office will be disqualifying to most people. He seems like a decent guy, and I’d love to see him in some sort of office some day, but this is not a serious suggestion.

      Also, to quote him:

      Proud to cast my vote for President @JoeBiden today, the first day of early in-person voting in the state of Michigan!
