Even despite Biden's statements today?
Which statements did Biden make?
Even despite Biden's statements today?
The intent of the poll is that you should .. so we can track sentiment in realtime, that is why I do the historical snapshots.I won’t change my 0% vote for the sake of posterity.
But seems fairly clear that Harris will be at the top of the ticket.
I think he has long held a genuine policy preference for Israel that you may not share. As far as his unwillingness to cut off weapons I'm not sure - I get the case for doing it but I also suspect it would cause a major split within the Democrats that may not be smart to do in the current climate.
I agree this was a mistake. I think their plan of trying to get Russia to leave Ukraine without some Russian military collapse was wrong, or at least something they should have realized was not going to happen and course corrected on after the summer of 2022 when it was clear initial defeat wasn't causing Russia to reconsider.
So you don't like his foreign policy, which is fine as there's definitely things to criticize about it but overall he's been extremely effective IMO.
As long as Biden is putting together mostly-complete sentences in 2024, I don't see him walking away from a second term.
Biden has shown that he is still there mentally, nevermind the projection from right-wing authoritarians. And even if Biden has old-age brain because he's fucking old, the fact that he is appointing competent people for positions is enough to show that he and his Chief-of-Staff are up to the job.
If I got to pick someone else to be the 2024 nominee, it'd have to be someone from outside politics who would have a shot in hell of grabbing younger voters who might vote for Trump, DeSantis, Cotton, Hawley, etc...like Jon Stewart, although he has mentioned that he isn't interested.

That's the only reason to vote for Biden? Wow, that's a pretty sad indictment on your morals and values.
Also it's not too late now. It's time for Biden to step aside, let Harris take over and pick a great VP. She has four months to do her thing with lower negatives than Biden. And we can still save this country for now. It has to be Harris, it's the only choice that makes sense to people that would avoid a big mess of how to pick a candidate otherwise, and potentially kill our shots altogether.
Can we clarify what you mean by agency. If by agency you mean observation that effects are generated by causes which themselves may be affects than I agree. We are all Hotel California residentsI reject the idea that Republicans lack agency.
You don't owe anyone your vote but it's a binary choice and one of the two will win. It's only logical to look at the outcome you prefer and vote for that one.Right, because every election is good vs evil, Jesus vs Satan, black vs white, democracy vs totalitarianism... Just like every previous election and superhero movie
Remember when Romney was the end of days lol?
I don't owe my vote to Biden just bc I don't like Trump.
Give me something to vote FOR, else piss off and think harder next time.
So in your reality July 3rd 2024 is basically the same as July 3rd 2012 and if you aren't getting exactly what YOU want, then you're just going to binge watch storage wars and get into scrap booking instead of preventing the further entrenchment of fascism.Right, because every election is good vs evil, Jesus vs Satan, black vs white, democracy vs totalitarianism...

Also people are probably right when they say each election is the most important of their lives. The level of polarization we have now really does lead to huge shifts when power changes between the parties.So in your reality July 3rd 2024 is basically the same as July 3rd 2012 and if you aren't getting exactly what YOU want, then you're just going to binge watch storage wars and get into scrap booking instead of preventing the further entrenchment of fascism.
Let me guess. You're a straight white male or can pass as one?
Privilege is a hell of a mindset. You should vote Trump just to heighten the contradictions or whatever.
I don't remember which pundit said it after the debate, but he said the question isn't whether Joe Biden can handle the job of POTUS for 4 more years.* The executive branch is a huge operation and you just have to be a competent CEO, and make some challenging decisions.** The question is whether Biden can be a candidate for the next 4 months, and in the eyes of the voters, that is very much in question.I don't think Biden is dropping out.
That said, I'm going to quote myself from 2 years ago.
Newsom is more or less the white male version of Kamala Harris. If Harris can't defeat DJT, then Newsom will also struggle to achieve a broad enough coalition to win a Democratic primary, much less the critical swing states in a general.It can only be her.
And when she loses, it clears her out of the 2028 race.... For Gavin Newsome... Ugh f me.
Democrats only saving grace is that R party is even more dysfunctional.
Oh you sweet summer child. Bless your heart.Right, because every election is good vs evil, Jesus vs Satan, black vs white, democracy vs totalitarianism... Just like every previous election and superhero movie

Every election affects each subsequent election. It's kinda sorta the whole fucking point. Had Trump lost bigly in 2016 perhaps we wouldn't be here, but we are. Ignoring objective observable reality to pretend like everything is the same or remotely similar to 12 years ago is fucking laughable and either trolling or severe delusion.Also people are probably right when they say each election is the most important of their lives.

More importantly for this one, one of the two candidates tried to overthrow the government.

What legislative actions will Biden take that you approve/disapprove of, and what legislative actions will Trump take that you approve/disapprove of? Based on their prior terms, what did you approve/disapprove of that Biden did, and what did you approve/disapprove of that Trump did? It's not like these are unknown qualities, we can probably generally expect more of the same from each.Right, because every election is good vs evil, Jesus vs Satan, black vs white, democracy vs totalitarianism...

Oh, you're a Republican pretending to have integrity. Now I get it.Oh no... The country will end... We really really really mean it this time. Our constitution is a delicate little flower and every Republican has a heart of pure evil...
Yet this is my problem and not Democrats and Biden's arrogance and hubris? Grow up
We survived Reagan, we survived Bush x2, we survived Trump x1.
Oh no, if Trump wins because Ds are stupid what will ever come of my abortions, student debt bailouts and other socialist giveaways?
I think Trump trying to end democracy was bad. Do you disagree?Turn off MSNBC and stop hyperventilating
Progressives have got as bad as the fox news crowd
Even at the dawn of social media, normalcy was still considered the golden standard.If anything, blame Obama for not coedfying it into law back when he had his initial supermajority.

A donkey should win against Trump and that's how it may turn out. Also as a true conservative voter I'm voting for the donkey I know and don't want some other donkey running in his place.It can only be her.
And when she loses, it clears her out of the 2028 race.... For Gavin Newsome... Ugh f me.

So other than helping Israel even MORE with their problem, what else does Trump have to offer you? Will Trump strengthen NATO or weaken it?I voted for Biden for his centrist approach and industrial policy. He's mostly delivered on that ... But nothing new is coming. (Again, why he should have left on top)
Im more aligned with him on foreign policy by far than Trump, but he's still too timid. I would have preferred Haley or Feterman or Romney in this regard. Stronger on helping Israel and Ukraine, continue strengthening NATO.
Biden has unfortunately getting pulled left by the progressives. Don't approve.
Don't like the woke left or the woke right
