    Are all of your posts going to be pro GOP posts masquerading as something else

    Bruh are you real with this one? I am in the crew posting “Biden should step down” posts, and I am as far from the GOP as one can get. Even if you grant that Biden has been a stellar president (and I am a full-throated believer there), the fact remains that critical, swing voters think that he is too old to effectively lead. The GOP has been pumping the airwaves with that message, and then Biden hand-delivered the bow on top with his debate performance. It doesn’t matter if the State of the Union was “firey”, and it doesn’t matter if interviews after showcase that he still has the mind of a 40-year-old (he doesn’t). Biden flubbed it at his most critical moment for this election, and now he is no longer the best candidate to take on Trump. Add-on the fact that corporate price gouging is out of control, and a lot of these swing voters perceive that as “the economy is bad under Joe Biden”. I will vote for whichever Dem is on the ballot in November, and I suspect that @Five@slrpnk.net will as well. But we’re all rightly terrified that the Dems are bringing a rusty knife to a gun fight.
