You know that doesn’t apply to republicans. For real though, why the fuck is Hunter all of a sudden all around the White House?  I have never heard of him there until after his conviction. Just play into the “Biden crime family” conspiracy from the Right why don’t you?

 

Are they really just trying to lose?

I was literally typing that!

Is there a reason why so many are speaking in code? Are they waiting for Schumer or someone else to say drop out before they utter the words drop out? 

I get a lot of Dems are conflicted and that this is unprecedented. Everyone who has uttered “drop out” acts like they have the right plan and they know what will happen. Sorry 😞 but they don’t know. 
 

this drip drip drip of defectors isn’t helpful. Like do it all at once or don’t do it at all. I assume those speaking in word salad are waiting on a signal from someone. I assume that is Schumer. If he says it will they all follow or does it have to be someone else? Who are they waiting on?

Makes sense. Everyone is speaking in Biblical parables. If they start quoting scripture though I will assume they are indeed trying to summon Him.

i get it. This situation sucks. It’s unprecedented. But I keep thinking (I think in analogies) what if I walked into a Porsche dealership. I’ve done all my research. I know the vehicle I want and I can pay for the whole thing in cash. A salesman whose sole job it is to sell me that car is like, “ma’am that’s a great selection. It’s the most expensive one on the lot. This will really help me with commissions and my quota for the month. But don’t you want to go home and think about it? Maybe you should wait a few days and go to other dealerships. The clock is ticking though so choose wisely.”

like I’d go buy a car somewhere else. I don’t understand why people can’t speak plainly. I get they are upset and confused and anxious. But it’s like they are waiting on someone to tell them it’s ok to defect. Fine. The clock truly is ticking.
 

Did they all smoke opium in their meetings yesterday and tell everyone just to do whatever they feel is right? 10 lawmakers doesn’t a revolution make. 

I’m calling this now: if they can’t force Biden out of the race, they’re going to shift to try to push Harris off the ticket.

If they can’t replace Biden, they’ll want a VP that they think people will really like and they don’t think that’s her. See the 1944 convention when they pushed aside a VP who the party considered a political liability. They don’t have that same power anymore so they’ll probably fail, but given their incredibly stupid spasms right now they’re definitely stupid enough to try.

And black women will revolt. Your most reliable voting base.

This old, white, rich man is no longer a viable candidate. Let's kick the black woman to the curb.

I’m going to say no on your idea but i appreciate you thinking outside the box.

Who’s “they?” Who would replace Harris? Someone white?

as insane as that sounds, that's where we're at as a nation.  I am saying this with no typical Lobo sarcasm, I'd genuinely like to hear what she has to say on the matter.  good news is she's empowering to young women and I love that my daughters love a great person like her.  

Bad news, there's only been election in U.S. history where young women under 30 tilted a Presidential race.  This won't be the second one

Trump remembered five simple words for about 10 minutes one time. 

To really show up Biden, go one more.  Tell us the names of your Six grandchildren.  Any order you like, don't have to know their ages (I forget my two girls' all the time, and I'm 30 years younger). 

Doesn't even have to be CNN.  Hannity could ask, "Biden is obviously senile.  To demonstrate your mental fitness to the American voters, tell us the names of your grandkids in any order you like."

-Well Sean, to me that's very personal.  I don't want to get into that right now.  But I love them all the same equally, just like the bible testaments and the other testimonies of which I am about to give so help me Lord guy,

Quote

A multi-university project called CHIP50, which includes Northeastern University, Harvard University, Rutgers University, and the University of Rochester, issued a new report concluding that the first presidential debate had no impact on voter preferences.

The report found:

The predominant pattern we see in the data is stability in voters’ preferences. Overall, 94% of those who chose Biden and 86% of those who chose Trump in our May survey still preferred the same candidate after the debate. There was a small rate of change from Biden to Trump or vice versa– less than 3% shifted in either direction. We observed more churn between those who favored either Biden or Trump and the “Other” category. About 4% of Biden’s and 6% of Trump’s supporters in the earlier wave shifted to “Other” post-debate. At the same time, 6% of “Other” shifted to Biden, and another 6% shifted to Trump.

...

The evidence available from CHIP50 does not substantiate the view that the presidential race shifted away from Biden in the immediate aftermath of the recent debate. We also suggest that media reporting on the presidential race should not interpret small apparent changes in voter preferences as reflecting a real change in the state of the race (where “small” should roughly be interpreted as less than twice the margin of error of a survey). For pollsters who use a panel (that is, the same respondents at multiple points in time), we would also recommend reporting the rate at which respondents have shifted among different possible responses.

TLDR (from the article itself): Democrats who are calling for Biden’s removal are playing into a crisis that the media created. There is no statistical support for the idea that voters have left Biden or that there is an urgent need for Democrats to replace their nominee.

I didn't even think of the fundraising issue. Lots of regular donors are gonna hold back, and who the fuck is gonna START donating to the Biden campaign at this point?

Another metric that will force him out soon.

Fetterman is sticking up for Biden on Fox News but he said he didn’t actually watch the whole debate. It’s easy to be a huge Biden supporter when you didn’t watch that disaster of a debate.

Why do you even need to watch the debate? Do you magats even listen to the bullshit spewed out of Trump's mouth. Now outside of that just compare the waste of 4 years under Trump to the 3.5 years under Biden. Who gives a fuck, a President needs to surround themselves with the most capable staff who can help guide the entire nation. Now ask yourself why Trump has no support from anyone who worked for him those 4 wasted years? 

You are in a cult of stupid pieces of old shit!

Yeah I had a friend text during the debate "Geez I was gonna vote for Biden but think I'll just stay home at this point. That was pathetic. Two terrible options."

I guess we'll see what the turnout is like in November.

Trump considering cutting back intel sharing with Europe, officials warn

Donald Trump is considering a reduction in intelligence sharing with members of NATO, which depends on the U.S. for the type of information that has helped Ukraine fend off Russia, according to foreign officials informed of the plans.

Trump advisers have told allied countries the reduced intel sharing would be part of a broader plan to scale back U.S. support and cooperation with the 32-nation alliance, according to three European officials and a senior NATO official, who were granted anonymity to discuss internal discussions.

The officials said they learned about the proposal to curb intelligence-sharing during discussions with Trump advisers about broader plans to reduce U.S. involvement with NATO. The former president repeatedly questioned and sought to undercut the alliance during his first term in office.

The curtailment of intel could have dire security consequences, especially for Ukraine as it tries to repel the Russian invasion.

“It’s the American intelligence that helped convince a lot of NATO countries that Putin was resolved to invade Ukraine,” one European official said. “Some countries didn’t believe Russia had the capabilities to carry out a successful military campaign.”

When Trump is elected, NATO should assume US is helping Russia and stop sharing intel

I mean, really? These are starting to sound like "stories" of visiting fans at aggie.

The Joementum is real!

In all seriousness, I know national polls only mean so much and a NPV tie will be an EC loss for Biden, but these tossup polls are relevant because they are giving the Biden camp ammunition for their argument to stay in the race.  The longer it looks like he has a shot, the harder it is for anyone to force him out. It’s only July, and making up 2-3 points between now and November is a lot more realistic than having to make up 5-7.
