Joe Biden is not "risking" this country, or this election, by staying in this race.

The voters of this country are risking that, as are the cowardly Democrats who are being cowed by the media frenzy and the polling that's a product of it.

Biden is right; there is an "elite" who stand at the forefront of this party, and they are acting as pathetically as any group I've ever seen. Biden leaving this race is sure to bring chaos, and be the end game of those who've gotten Democrats to spend months chasing ghosts. We have something akin to actual Nazis running to take over our government and these chickenshits have no confidence they can beat that back.

the vast majority of Democrats are.

But, the big money people don't like him, for the exact same reasons the common folk do.

Just the “Underestimating Joe” Crowd.

Same ones that were sure of the red wave, the “Polls Say….!” Bunch.

that Dems overperformed in, even when they lost, it was by a LOT less than the polls suggested.

in Washington, he is doing Kamala a great service. He is showing her how to get things across the finish line and being a good teacher.
