The Democrats have up-and-coming stars?
This is what I was going to say lol, who’re they going to run, ratboy?
“Who let the dogs out?”Chasten
“waste one of their up and coming stars”
lmao WHO?
This is confusing to me, because in Israel, “up and coming” means you’re a dead soldier.
No no the phrase for that is, “dead and cattle prodded for semen extraction”.
They’d rather have Biden lose to him than waste one of their up and coming stars on a fool’s errand.
Sure, but they could put Harris in there. She’d probably result in a less disastrous loss in the senate.
They might do it just so she doesn’t run again and to punish her for being a minority woman.
Yeah this is a tailor-made “glass cliff” scenario.
Biden the Sin Eater
There are probably several Democrats who could get on a stage and just repeat “Abortion” ad nauseum and beat Trump. I think the right is banging on this drum so hard that Trump is unbeatable after this assassination attempt because they want Biden to stay in. Felix made what I think is a very astute observation on the latest Chapo episode when he said that Trump attacked George Clooney for calling on Biden to step down precisely because Trump’s best chance at winning is facing Biden. Plus, Joe Biden is the ultimate proof that being a fucking loser in presidential elections is not an indicator of future electoral success. And so is Donald Trump, for that matter.
I truly think this assassination attempt has made him unbeatable at this juncture. Motherfucker missed spectacularly and the Dems are just counting dollar signs thinking about a Trump presidency at this point.
I honestly think people care more about bodily autonomy than they do about Trump almost dying. This has only made him unbeatable because he already was unbeatable against Biden. Any candidate that isn’t a corpse and is willing to fight for the bare minimum would wipe the floor with Trump.
It would require they admit to the sins of their party though, which wouldn’t be popular amongst the inner clique

I think you’re right and I think that while he may have an uptick in the polls because of this, it’s still July. There’s a lot of time between now and November for a new candidate to beat him regardless of this moment. However I don’t think the Dems will do that, and after he locks in at the convention they are really screwed when he is still Joe Biden at the next debate.
Still plenty of time left for Trump to utterly squander any and all goodwill that he might have racked up by getting an unconventional ear piercing. And if anyone is enough of a dipshit to pull that off, it’s Trump.
In the grand scheme of things, though, it’s not like there’s much going on in the Dem field. You have a shambling corpse, sentient Xanax, the Butcher of Benghazi, the Poisoner of East Palestine, and a revolving door cast of generic Democrat empty suits, which inevitably includes governors of blue states and Eric “[boys in] blue fascism” Adams. July is a little late to try to build any kind of name recognition around most of those candidates, although your average lib is housebroken enough that they will go all-in for “not Trump,” but this doesn’t really help with independents/swing voters. Maybe next week’s decade will be more interesting. Maybe a bearded and unhinged Al Gore will declare a challenge against Biden and cause him to die of a stroke after pointing out that you can get a Prius up to 110 MPH if you’re determined enough.
Yeah the Dems are gonna throw their hands in the air, say “well, that’s it!” And run Biden as a sacrificial lamb. They don’t have to though, but they’re gonna
It’s gonna be awkward when Biden starts off the next debate profusely apologizing to Trump for causing the assassination attempt because of “my extremist rhetoric” and begging for forgiveness before dementing out and uttering the words “I love you”
