Yeah, ain't gonna happen because Biden would have to step aside. The time for him to do that was last November.
This is going to be really bad and I blame Biden and the Democrats in 2020 that decided an 80 year old was a good pick.
A big part of this decision is happening right now at Camp David with his family, according to the article:
Let's face reality:
.... Biden asked for that debate because he was desperate to break the downward trend and reach these battleground swing-state voters. That backfired in the worst possible way.
The time is now, before the convention, and with enough time for an alternative candidate to be selected and ramp up campaigning. There are half a dozen candidates who fit the bill and have a semi-national profile, are YOUNGER, and have enough charisma and debate skills to beat Trump — almost by default by being a fresh face and younger
Anyone who says there isn't enough time doesn't understand just how much FREE viral media attention this would all receive. Every single person should be pushing for this to happen now. Because if Biden makes another gaffe like this in October or a medical emergency, then we are REALLY fucked.
