        Not let traditions like “we don’t oppose the sitting president” override supporting who is actually best for the job. Elections should be cutroat even amongst the party. Not some dog and pony circus that we’re given where both candidates are chosen for us and we get to play “lesser of two evils” game.

          There will still be a sizable, perhaps even majority, of members who support Biden’s choice to run again. What you’re advocating for is a civil war in the Dem party during an election year against Donald fucking Trump.

            No, what I’m advocating is for more than a 2 party system where multiple viable candidates are brought forth and not just the same two groups controlling it all.

            Crazy idea, I know. Maybe we could call it a “Parliament” or something.

            You just keep arguing “LESSER OF TWO EVILS!” like that actually means something

              You’re talking about something that would be great to work towards. I’m talking about why the DNC didn’t do the thing you wanted them to do.

              What actually means something is keeping Trump out of the White House.
