President Joe Biden could make a decision within days whether to remain a candidate for reelection, said Hawaii’s governor who participated in a recent meeting with Biden and other Democratic governors and whose family has known the president for years.
And if Biden decides not to run, Hawaii Gov. Josh Green told The Associated Press on Saturday that he believes the president will designate Vice President Kamala Harris to replace him on the ticket.
Green, who was a physician on Hawaii’s Big Island before he was elected governor, said everyone has parents or grandparents who have moments that aren’t that great or pauses in their ability to express themselves clearly. But, he added, they aren’t discarded because of their experience, wisdom and their role in the family.
Green was quick to point out that Trump is only three years younger than Biden and both will have bad days going forward. But he argued that temperament is more important than age.
“For God’s sake, these two guys have to hold the nuclear codes,” Green said. “I don’t want someone who tweets in the middle of the night and rages at other countries. That is not good. That’s not the problem we have with President Biden.”
as bad as another four years of Biden or Trump would be could you imagine four years of Harris
extra police funding
more restrictive laws
backtracking on current progress such as cannabis
more people locked up
only difference is she would be younger and more in her mind to do so

Yes, but what about letting the perfect be the enemy of the good?!
What about not compromising so fucking early. There are other establishment candidates that’d be much stronger.
Which ones and do they want to run?
Buttigieg and Whitmer seem to have wide party support.
Are they willing to run? Because otherwise it doesn’t matter. And I have seen no indication that they are.
Also, Buttigieg used to work for McKinsey and they are fucking evil. I’d rather have either Harris or Biden than that.
As a historic non-D voter who is switching this election, I would enthusiastically take Joe over Buttigieg, considering I’m from a neighboring town to his former mayorship. Pete was very unpopular in South Bend and he’s been very unpopular as Secretary of Transportation. Dude sucks and I actually think senile Biden is a better option.
Trump is a piece of human waste. That he is the top candidate of the GOP says a lot about the abysmal condition America is in.
Did she ever say that? Anyhow, MAGAts would be so delightfully infuriated.
you know that for a fact, or are you just projecting?
prosecutors are charged with proving the city or state or federal government’s case against someone who has been charged with breaking the law. if congress doesn’t provide extra police funding, doesn’t pass more restrictive laws, doesn’t backtrack on current policy, and doesn’t lock more people up for non violent crimes guess what? she’s not going to do that either. i don’t see her going the unitary executive that a republican congress would allow a republican president to be because it sounds like she actually respects the rule of law and separation of powers.
