(297,050 posts)136. Reid is promoting it.. on her her show and
on FB..
Reid's FB..
"Our guest author Anand Giridharadas is not the only person who thinks Biden should drop out of the 2020 race after his debate comments. What do you think, #reiders? Watch and weigh in:"
LOl@first reply..
Robert Miller Biden drop out??? I thought it was a typo, and the title meant to say Castro! Castro was wrong about everything regarding his exchange with Biden. Biden knew exactly what he had said. If anyone should go, it should be Castro!
Bridget Davis Enough with the bashing of candidates. Joy everyone knows you aren't for Biden and try at every opportunity to hurt his campaign. I will vote for who ever the nominee is whether it be Biden or someone else.

Reid doesn't have to say it directly "Biden drop out".. she's promoting it.
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

I agree. We need a true progressive atop the ticket, not someone who makes us nostalgic for Obama.
