I don't know what the answer is [View all]

I am not so arrogant as to know how well Joe Biden is. I don't know what the internal polling is concerning an alternative. But when political figures that I like and admire are of different minds, I get scared. For example, AOC and Sherrod Brown. I am politically savvy enough to know that we can't go into this election divided. If Democratic elected officials are debating on whether or not our candidate is fit for office, we're fucked. If the sitting President and his team feel as though they were stabbed in the back by their own party, we're fucked.

I am a Democrat. I have always voted and worked for the Democratic nominee. I know that this country is fucked if Trump wins. All I can ask our Democratic leaders to do is to get it together. They have more information than I do. I'll do whatever they want. But please recognize how damaging a loss can be.
