I actually love this model:

Biden supporters: "Unite around candidate Biden or prepare to watch Democracy die!"

Biden detractors: "You guys are nuts! That old bastard can barely put 3 sentences together. I will argue we should have a younger more vibrant candidate like Big Gretch who would wipe the floor with Trump all the way until I vote for Biden's senile ass on November 5th!"

Biden supporter: "You dumb fucks, Whitmer herself says she isn't interested and is all-in for Biden! But she'd be a great candidate and I would fully support her if Biden steps down and she was the nominee. But he won't, so pull your heads out of your asses and support him!"

Like, if we gotta argue, let's have fun with it and just vote 100% for dems top to bottom on November 5th.

Forget reality. Embrace Blue MAGA. Run senile geriatric. Lose because not everyone is in the Blue MAGA cult.

The outcome of this election is either Trump or not Trump, The election system has been specifically fine-tuned over decades so that it strongly favours Trump's party, despite him having fewer votes overall. There is one other party that is financially entrenched enough to have a chance at being voted, realistically.

Tackling the entire election process to actually catch up to democracies worldwide is a whole different topic altogether and realistically not achievable before this particular election, so if you are talking about preventing Trump via election (before Trump factually prevents being elected out of office during his term), the choice between either Trump or Biden is the reality.

The outcome is Trump or not Trump.

Nowhere does it say Biden has to be the candidate. Biden will only guarantee Trump.

That's great for you let's hope all other Democrats are mindless drones as well and literally nobody cares about the candidate.

Why even have a primary? Just place a sack of potatoes there and call it a day. Nobody cares who the president is right?

Not mindless, just operating in reality.

Linkerbaan knows the winner is gonna be the Dem or Rep nominee. They just REALLY don’t want to admit it.
