Project 2025’s 180-Day Playbook is a remarkably detailed guide to turning the United States into a fascist’s paradise.

    Did you canvas for anyone else to challenge him in your state’s primary?

    Because you had time.

      You know nobody else stands a chance against an incumbent president in a primary unless the president drops out on their own, so that’s a moot point just for the sake of arguing.

        So “this election won’t even be close if someone other than Biden ran” but it wasn’t worth trying to primary him?

          Like I said, DNC and Biden himself needs to realize that he should step down, given that this is a very important election. If they don’t want to do that, there’s nothing anybody else can do about it. Your point is moot and you know it. Talk to Dean Phillips and ask him how his campaign is going. Being too idealistic just for the sake of argument doesn’t help anybody. Need to be more practical.

      Oh right, because individual citizens can beat the entire democratic party machine on their own. What a ridiculous fucking comment.

        That’s how grassroots democracy works. But it’s much easier to sit on your ass and berate people on the internet.
