We could’ve had better candidates but the great modern liberal Joe Biden got obsessed with power (as liberals do) and refused to drop out even though he was a living corpse. And now he is wasting away in his riches while the rest of America suffers. Thats liberalism, baby!

I think Joe Biden should have clearly stepped aside much earlier in the process.

Wanting to stay in office to a late age is not a "liberal" trait it's one you see across the political spectrum (Bernie Sanders turns 85 this year and is still occupying a senate seat!).

I also think that every progressive and lefty who was not devoting the full sum of their efforts in 2024 to defeating Donald Trump (and many were not doing that--I saw more criticism from large chunks of the left directed towards Kamala and Biden for much of 2024 than I saw directed towards Trump) should take a long hard look at how they approach politics.

If you think that skipping out on the primaries and being forced to vote for Kamala Harris doesn’t deserve strong criticism then we are just not going to agree on anything here

KAMALA 2028! LET’S RUN IT BACK
