MODERATORS
While I agree that Biden no longer really seems fit to be president, the dangerous Trump argument is absolutely not one to be downplayed. A man that attempted to overthrow the government in a tantrum when he didn't get his way should be absolutely nowhere near close to becoming president again. A sack of potatoes or Biden's literal decomposing corpse would be a better president.
I agree that it's disappointing that these are our only two options and that the Dems could not figure out a better candidate this go around.
Which is why it's so bad Biden insists on staying in the race.
If he thought beating trump was the most important thing, he'd have announced years ago that he wouldn't run again.
But he'll never stand down. Because he wants a second term more than stopping trump from having a second.
And people realizing Biden is risking that for his own ego, makes him even less likely to stop trump.
Historically "vote for me or else" doesn't work well
We know what works to motivate Dem voters: young, charismatic, and progressive sounding candidates.
We can't get that to stop trump, because 82 year old Biden won't retire.
