    Woah, I didn’t mean to say that Biden is a fascist. That’s not what I meant at all. What I meant was that to keep a fascist (Trump) from the White House, Biden needs to step down.

      That makes more sense. Unfortunately, there’s almost no chance of a new candidate gaining the trust of the majority of voters in five months, and the DNC knows it.

        Wdym? In Europe, political campaigns take a maximum of a few months. Campaigns that take years aren’t the norm. Plus, if it’s Harris, she’s a known quantity.

          Unfortunately, Harris wouldn’t win. She’s too polarizing.

          American citizens are now trained to be bathed in non-stop political propaganda for a year before a vote. Most don’t actively seek out their own information, but wait until it’s spoon-fed and unavoidable. I guarantee a new face would lose just as many votes due to lack of trust in who they say they are.

            So swapping in someone who hasn’t been maligned for all that time must be a terrible idea. We can’t let Republicans waste effort like that.
