    This is a dangerous game being played here. Everyone knew these races would already be close and Biden seems to be losing support despite how awful Trump is and objectively worse his policies are. There is no clear solution but I hope they figure it out quick. Not being Trump the second time around was always going to depend on how people viewed his performance for the last 4 years.

      Bidens lead is currently growing. This election has nothing to do with supporting Biden, or what Biden plans to do, or how old Biden is. It’s entirely about stopping the orange Mussolini. Biden’s odds of winning will keep growing as long as his opponents keep getting more extreme. With any sane republican this election would look like 1984.

        If it’s totally about beating Trump, then not replacing Biden is a mistake as everyone supporting him would support a new candidate.

          Probably true, Biden shouldn’t have ever started the primary. Just about any Dem could do as well.

        National polls dont mean shit since we don’t award office by popular vote. Biden is losing where it matters. It’s too bad democrats didn’t listen to leftists when we kept saying he’s losing his mind for the last 3 years.
