      Yeah trump is old too, but if he dies, nobody cares. If Biden does though, all we have left is Harris to protect us from Johnson.

            The candidate who is currently president after winning the election in which he earned the popular vote? That unpopular candidate?

          I’m not denying it and I, for one, am happilly voting for Biden. I’m emphasizing the reason why him being old is scary.

            No. You said something that indicates anything other than utter orgasmic delight at the prospect of Biden being the best the party will ever be willing to do. That means you’re a trumpist.

          Biden’s presidency has been the best for progressives in 50 years. The outrage about Biden is laughable.

        You do know if Biden died a new vice president would then be appointed, right? I could see congress trying to hold that up but I think the Republicans would face an uphill battle, and that’s only presuming they don’t lose their house majority like they did in 2020.

      Either we vote for the guy who wants to murder innocent americans or we vote for the guy who wants to murder innocent non-americans like the last twenty presidents.

        Absolutely ridiculous to think Trump wouldn’t kill non-americans.

        The choice is genocide overseas, or tyranny here and genocide overseas.

        It fucking sucks, but the GOP needs to be dismantled before we can bargain for better options.

          I’m voting for the geezer in 2024, but let’s be real - Dems will never give us a better option. Biden is genuinely a pretty good president comparatively (imo), but real change will not come from either mainstream party. Don’t forget what they did to Bernie in 2020, or why Buttigieg is the Secretary of Transportation. (They’re the same)

          I don’t think trump wouldn’t kill non-americans I just figured it was a given and wouldn’t need to be mentioned.

            Your original comment implied that you’re choosing one kind of death or the other, the fact is Trump will cause more suffering and to handwave it to be the same as Biden is dangerous.
