Honestly, donors pulling money is the only way Biden will drop out.
It might just turn me into a Biden supporter*, I hate how much influence rich fucks have on our politics
*I was/am going to vote for him or whoever the Democratic nominee is anyway, but I have always thought Joe Biden was a racist-rehabilitating credit card company loving piece of crap and take every opportunity I can to point out that I think the Democratic party needs to do way better than this, but the whole reason we got stuck with President Biden in the first place is because of big money donors like this who think they know better than everyone else
Wait the donors acknowledging they were dumb to stuck us with him is the reason you may turn into a supporter?
Thats some logic
What the donors and the party need to acknowledge is that letting donors rig our party in favor of their own preferences kills our voters' enthusiasm and keeps them home. This shouldn't be happening because Rob Reiner and George Clooney suddenly had a change of heart, if this was going to happen it should have happened months ago when Biden's approval ratings were already in the toilet, or when the college student voters we need to be campaign volunteers were protesting Palestinian genocide, or any one of a dozen other moments.
Well the Dems care more about cash than voters
