Uh... Haven't we been screaming that Biden is a pretty bad candidate since he took office and begging him to not run for re-election?

This is a surprise to who?

Even Obama said Biden shouldn't run in 2020, but when it seemed like Bernie Sanders would win, he put in the calls to get other candidates to drop and support Biden, who became the democrats' only hope.

"we don't want an octogenarian! We want a fascist orange septogenarian!"

I'm sure we can find a 50 year old white man that will allow the oligarchs to steal wealth from everyone! Why can't we let them run!?

All by design.

Voting for Biden or any Democrat is like voting for a car salesman. They're there to sell you corporate bullshit. Voting for Trump or any republican is like voting for a used car salesman. They're trying to sell you old non working pieces of crap or shitty russian knock offs.
