Democrats "Break Glass in Case of Emergency" Plan - Picking an alternate candidate.

You’re  Mostly right, but some are cousins and even my brother to an extent (but we aren’t really close anyway).  But my point was my issue with Trump supporters isn’t political beliefs, it’s the fact that they celebrate such a crappy person.  I’m not talking about stopping being friends because they voted for the guy, I’m talking about the people who brag about voting and supporting him.

i live in Nebraska. If I did t associate with people that voted for him, I’d never get to leave the house.

We feel the same way about you voting for such crappy policies.

Good video on this topic of replacing Biden. I started listening to these guys about a year ago. Id highly suggest it, they got great live shows and commentary. A lot of the people they have on this channel are never Trump republicans and MAGA people that have left the cult. Best of all they tell the TRUTH! Even if its not something you want to hear, they tell it like it is.  

I dont post on this forum very often anymore. Last time I was a regular poster on politics forum I was a far left Bernie Sanders progressive that watched TYT and Kyle Kulinski on a daily basis. Now that I have a daughter, I have trended more right on many topics and have become more of a moderate liberal. Now I consider people like Cenk Uygar and Kyle Kulinksi on the other team because all they do is bash Biden and want to be right about him losing. They are doing nothing to help the party win and imo they are a direct threat to the safety and future of my daughter. I hope other progressives can see through their BS and do the right thing this election and make up for 2016.

This is stupid.

If you let politics AT ALL impact your family relationships or your friendships...you are or they are a$$h@!es.  

I hate guns...gun owners are idiots.  Doesn't bother me at all if my friends own guns when we go drink and play golf.

I LOVE abortion, literally, love it.  I don't care at all if you are against it (and wrong), if you are my friend, we are still all good.

Anyone that tries to justify it...is an a$$h@!e.  Period.  

This is like dorks that get divorced and try to make friends/family pick a side.

I would agree with you…but, there have been some Trump supporters that have become so in-your-face that I just don’t want yo be around them. I’ve never had that with any other political issue or candidate.

My opinion. Newsomes policies in Cali seem to be awful. I do not have to live there however. I have many co workers in the Bay Area (engineers) who complain all the time. I am not sure why he is trying to block the repeal of prop47. As for Whitmer, most of my exposure to her was from 2020 and 2021. I was never in favor most of the COVID policies after 2 months in, and she seemed to be very authoritarian about it.  I would say 60% of my family in Michigan can't stand her, the other 40% love her. If the Dems were going to put someone up, I would prefer Manchin. Fetterman is growing on me. I am sure there is a Moderate Gov somewhere I would like. Hickenlooper did OK. 

 
Fetterman is sort of growing on my too.  And as someone that HATES the idea of having to dress up for a job, I love that he dresses like a middle school PE teacher that clearly has 1 year left until he retires, he made his last child support and alimony payment at the start of the school year, he no longer cares about anything except May 18th when the school year ends so that he can sell his house and move to the Virgin Islands. 

A man like that...that is my kind of man.

I doubt the Dems would put up an independent, Manchin…..and he’s 76 so…

Hickenlooper was okay, as is Polis but I doubt the country is ready to elect a gay man to the WH. He’s been pretty decent in Colorado.

If Joe would’ve picked a better VP this would all be simpler.

Yeah!

I am not sure if JB really picked Harris, I feel like that was very well scripted for him, which I get, the goal is to win.  But, clearly Harris is never going to run for President.  And it is not her fault, this administration used her and then dumped her.

Yeah, they basically did with her what Obama did with Joe. Brought in for certain demographics and then vanquished to the kids table, never to be heard from.

Kamala still has potential but she never had to win where it was hard.  She needs to go to politics school.

Did your colleagues vote for the policies they complain about?

 




I don't think Joe Biden had a cold at all, and I'm not sure I'd blame meds, either. I think it's more like this scene from Annie Hall.

The Joe who recovered so quickly into a post-debate dynamo just needed everyone to turn the pressure off. Unfortunately, taking Trump on face to face was the job requirement.
