“While it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as president for my term,” Mr. Biden posted in a statement on social media.

    Thank fuck. Biden’s actually been a pretty good President and I say that after strongly supporting Bernie over him. He’s got some flaws and (including some pretty big ones, e.g. Gaza). But, he’s also had some good accomplishments and finally recognized that continuing to steer this ship intro the dirt wasn’t the best plan. So, Thank you President Biden and let’s all now pull together and get whoever replaces him elected. It’s probably Harris. Again, not my first choice, and I suspect the selection process isn’t going to be terribly Democratic. But, we missed that boat by not having a real primary. But, we now have a chance for someone without one foot in the grave and the other on a patch of ice, to beat Trump. Let’s not squander it.
