The issue is appearances are all that mattered. I don’t believe anyone who was interested enough in politics to watch that debate was undecided. It’s now time for the campaigns to cut up the debate to use for ads that will actually reach the undecided voters. I feel it’s going to hurt Biden a lot more than Trump.

Yeah, I don’t disagree. Those who make their decisions by disregarding policy are probably not going to be doing the right things for the right reasons anyways.

If they tip the balance and that means a dictatorship, there’s nothing anyone can do to stop it short of global intervention.

Invade the US to spread freedom? What goes around comes around I guess. Fuck our shit up, go nuts! Don’t worry, everything is already broken.

I’m hoping the reason this debate was agreed to so early is that the DNC needs to know if they’ve got to work out a plan B. The convention is scheduled for the end of August so until then Biden isn’t the official candidate. Like, if in 2 months they’re polling at 30%, I don’t see how they can go “oh yeah, this is definitely a losing strategy. Let’s stick with it”. Why not switch it up? You’re losing already. The worst that can happen is you still lose.

This is exactly what I’m thinking. So next then, who do they run instead?

BTW remember when like three years ago Biden said multiple times he would only serve one term? smdh
