Good commentary: Pool wonders what the hell the Democrats are doing?

Biden isn't even campaigning, he won't travel to accept the nomination, know one really knows what his platform is, he rarely does anything and when he does its usually a gaff prone disaster, 90 days out and we still don't know who the VP pick is?

Democrats Aren't Even Campaigning And Now Biden Will SKIP The DNC, Are Democrats Planning To Lose?? Joe Biden announced he will accept the democratic nomination virtually and they will announce his VP pick in the same way.

because the people who vote for that nonsense will vote for it anyway, so why even waste campaign money?

that's number 1, but also, they know he's in terrible shape mentally. they're obviously hiding him.

I sure hope that Republicans are campaigning in all the down ballot spots.

He makes an interesting point about how the Dems aren't spending any money or campaigning at all. Says they may just be packing it in and letting the media carry their water so they save resources for 2024 because they know they can't beat Trump. And/or also, they already know they're just going to contest the election on election night in hopes of causing some kinda chaos.

I think there's a 50/50 chance they replace Biden after the convention. If they were to do it now it would have to go to Bernie since he came in second in delegates and the establishment wants anything but that.

This is like in polls when they talk about the "generic democrat" candidate. Joe Biden is just essentially slapping a name on the generic democrat. He isn't running on shite at the moment and only pops his head out of his shelter long enough to read some prepared lines.

They can't even get pre-recorded messages right.

They've known of his cognitive decline for a while and originally probably figured they would lose to Trump so they threw him a bone to preserve the field of up-and-coming Dem candidates. That, and/or they figured they could get him in office and then have him resign after a year, thus allowing a VP that would never otherwise get elected to become president.

But, I suspect Biden's decline has proven to be much faster than anticipated. So, my bet is that he withdraws from the race during the convention and the Dems appoint a new candidate. This will bring some excitement, throw off the Trump team, etc. and give them a real shot at winning. I hope it doesn't work, but this is my bet.

Push corona to mandate mail in voting. Steal election. Take over the country.

They are hiding Biden, faking polls, with the media saying he is way ahead, and sending out multiple ballots to people.

The whole thing is rigged. Biden is declared the winner on election night and the media goes with the "Trump won't accept the election and leave the White House" talking point.

Who can they slot in Biden’s place who will have a chance?

Bernie is the only declared candidate who possibly could do it and there is no fricking way they let him go as candidate.

Cuomo’s fricked due to his handling of Covid.

Hillary is still hated for her run last time and won’t have improved in any of the Midwest states they need.

Etc.

I think there's a 50/50 chance they force Biden to either die of Covid or a "radical right white supremacist wearing Trump gear" shoots him

I’ve been wondering if the Dems are trying to lose the Presidency in hopes of keeping the house and taking the senate. Then they’ll just try to neuter Trump for 4 more years and take over in 2024.

Much like the impeachment the current strategy is just not making sense.

If the shooter hit him in the brain, it would do the least amount of damage possible to him.

The Biden campaign is actually running some decent ads. The trump campaign is still going all in on trying to convince us that the Democrats are the real racists!

So what you're saying is, Biden's best ads are the ones where he talks about plagiarising one of The President's central policy planks?

I’m saying that we need to see and hear more of that from the president and less about Biden being based on crime and race.

The Biden campaign is letting the media do his politicking for him because if he is exposed to the public concerning speeches and debates, he's a cooked goose with the swing voters being the chefs.

They are avoiding any type of debate scenario so they will not have to defend against Trumps accomplishments and then they will say Joe has had a stroke or he is having light ischemic attacks and they will pull him and then put Michelle Obama in as the candidate just like George Wallace did with his wife Lurleen when he wasn't allowed to run as governor of alabama any longer because he had already served all of the time he was allowed. Barack will go on the campaign trail and this will be sold to the American public as a way to get him back in the white house and get around the 8 year term limit on a president. The black voters will flock back to the plantation and nobody will have to debate Trump on the facts. Its actually a brilliant plan.
I have called this for two years.

The only way the Democrats have a shot at winning is to prolong the results and make Pelosi take over.
