      Yes, so many prominent progressives have called for Biden to step down such as… Ber… no… AO… no… Corey… no… hmmn…

      Don’t worry, I’ve been assured by Lemmy Leftists that Bernie and AOC are basically establishment shills at this point.

    I would be excited to go to bat for Harris.

    If people seriously can’t be asked to get behind her, then they have little credibility that they want to stop the christo-fascist takeover. She has name recognition, VP experience, gets access to Biden’s war chest, is 59 as opposed to 81, and is a woman of color. And she’s weird in a memeable way.

    The fact that the Democratic Party moved their virtual convention back to the start of August signals that they are serious about discussing if Biden should drop out. Ultimately it is Biden’s decision.

    I’m waiting for Biden to make a decision to drop out or his nomination in the virtual convention, whichever comes first. I think it’s still more likely that he stays in. If Biden is the nominee I’m going to tell people to vote for him. If Harris is the nominee I’m going to tell people to vote for her. I’m going to tell people to vote blue either way.
