A lot of replies look like AI to me, so we can waste time on them rather than doing the work we need to. And bullshit to wear you down.

because they want to beat trump, eat/bash good Democrats that think differently about how to beat trump, threaten boycotts of Democrats up for election, bashing Democrats for meeting, and perhaps worse?

Oh, isn’t OP a violation of TOS forum moderation, calling out, or some such?

Don’t worry, I’ve only alerted once when I alerted on myself for a post I thought better of next day.

Cursing and name calling are also not allowed. I get asked to serve on juries regularly on those issues.

So far I have yet to be asked to serve on a jury when the object of the propaganda is our serving president.

If 30% or so of Democrats — a couple of weeks after debate - are concerned about winning elections up and down ballot, I think that’s legitimate.

I’m old, I love Biden, but want to make sure trump doesn’t get in office. Hopefully, Biden’s team will kick ass this week and turn polls around.

They may want to beat him for bad reasons. Big republican donors may want him to lose because he is an idiot and will destroy their cash cows.

and down ballot" that is quite different than "That showed 45% of Democrats support Biden stepped down. I’ve seen others at 30%." Being concerned about winning elections up and down the ballot is far different than Biden stepping down.

With dump the first time. More this time but I would say it's 99% because of what dump did last time and what he wants to do this time. The other one percent is mostly what they will do if they lose, maybe .05% because of Pres Biden's latest debate performance. You?

Sometimes one has to entertain themselves in face of silliness. The barbarians are at the gate and I've just bought ice cream sandwiches from Costco.

Especially when things like this are said. But on another note why aren’t people blowing up the Epstein Trump revelations? I know MSNBC is owned by RW Comcast but is it really like that? All I hear from jackass conservatives is Epstein this and Epstein that. The swamp. Well turns out that swampass was Trump. Do we really have no media representing us??? We saw that CNN is centrist at best. It’s ridiculous. As far as the upcoming election whatever the campaign does they better put this to bed ASAP. It’s July.
