You can’t expect a sitting President to not re-run for office. Of course Biden is going to run.
In Trump’s mind, and in the minds of a lot of his supporters, he is the “rightful” sitting President, so of course he’s going to run too.
Are they the BEST choices? Of course not. But they are THE choices.
Because nobody tells someone at that power level what to do.
They can choose, on their own, not to run like Johnson did in 1968. But no outside influence can or should tell a President they can’t run.
If you think no one tells Joe Biden what he should be doing on the daily you might be more demented than he is.
I thought the whole point of having a democracy was people got to choose their leaders.
If you’re saying leaders become too powerful to reject, that’s troubling.
You can expect it if you want to. You can expect whatever you want. It’s just your expectations won’t mirror reality.
Huh? You find it unreasonable that someone sitting in the most powerful elected position on the planet, with the opportunity to extend that seat, would choose to run again???
And you know what should happen? There should be actual primaries. But they’re not even pretending at this point.
You don’t have real primaries for a sitting President. You just don’t. See any previous election ever. Trump 2020, Obama 2012, Bush 2004, etc. etc. etc.
They lead the party for a reason.
On the Republican side this year, they TRIED to primary Trump and, well, you see how well that worked out.
