But some of it is weak.

Yes of course, replacing Biden, a proven winner, with someone unknown so close
to the election is a huge gamble and perhaps sheer folly.

But characterizing others as "deserting" Biden is not the point of the argument.

The goal is to preserve our democracy and prevail against fascism.
This is not a loyalty test for one man.

It is about preserving the most important democracy in the history of the world.
And doing right by the American people.

If you can argue how retaining Biden does that, you would have a great argument.
