It was decided based on feedback from the spring 2023 town hall to transition this thread back to being election specific. With the Civics section being able to house specific threads on many issues, we think having a generalized politics thread is not completely necessarily anymore.Β 
Β 

With that said, please continue to be respectful and remember that you do not always need to respond to everyone.Β

which is why Biden will be the nominee.Β

I mean I get it, but if we're talking about replacing an entire presidential nominee we can't really afford to just keep waiting to see

Wouldn't doubt it πŸ˜‚

Will Stancil acts like no one can form an opinion of their own except for him and everyone else is just being misled by the media about Biden. Like, no, even Bernie Bros are begging for Kamala.

I think they're waiting on the Stephanopoulos interview specifically. The preview to that will be on Friday, and the full thing will be aired Sunday. The idea of him doing the interview to begin with was probably to put a lid on more House Dems calling for his head for at least a few days. The Friday clip will be selectively clipped so that he looks fine enough to shut everyone up, and then the actual interview probably won't matter as much whether he flops or not. That's the only approach that makes sense because he's been avoiding even the friendliest of softball interviews Β for his entire presidency.

Β 

Not stopping leaks like this from coming out though. "Donkey in the room" :bibliahh:Β

Also....didn't Biden supporters (the ones who said he was mentally cognizant) tell us over and over that a disillusioned youth vote is not a big issue because the chickens always come home or some ****?Β 

Β 

Kamala will have to be a compelling presidential candidate. But her obstacles to that (showing remorse for her top cop past, at the very least abandoning Biden's harsh language on Israel and Palestine and doing the bare minimum of appearing compassionate like Obama could) are much easier to overcome than Biden now succumbing to the criticism of his age.Β 

Β 

But we warned yall of this.Β 

Β 

We said that you need an energized progressive base as a foundation to push back against media narratives and be Biden's advocates.Β 

Β 

But you rebuked progressives and defended the worst of Biden's personal conservatism.Β 

Β 

And all it took was a horrific debate performance and no bleeding heart advocates in Biden's corner for the hole to fall out the bottom and him become unelectable to independents.Β

I'm getting rumbling from friends of being favorable to drafting Michelle Obama if Biden decides to pull out. Seen some polling of her easily over Trump.

The Michelle Obama take is so stale. People like her because she is apolitical. Her numbers would drop if she ever shared her thoughts on any controversial topic. What is her official stance on what is going on in Palestine? As a former First Lady she doesn't have to share it, but as a presidential nominee she would.Β 
Β 

Michelle Obama replacing Biden is a Β conspiracy theory repeated feverishly by the far right. They believe she will be a puppet for husband and also they disgustingly joke about her being a man, referring to her as "big mike"

Β 

She has said a million times she has no interest running for any political position. Which makes sense because she's an apolitical celebrityΒ

My friends are like me, we are boomers and we VOTE. We have acquaintances and family members who are in the same shape as Biden, so we know how much of a farce his presidency is. The boomers were the one block Biden could count on, but now we see the reality of how much out of it he is.

What's that got to do with your credibility saying Michelle O will replace Biden. Thats nonsense.Β

I don't think they're saying it will happen, just that people he knows would prefer that
