minus-square@xmunklink2•2 months agoWhy go for a slightly less damaged but still weak candidate when we actually have good ones.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish6•2 months agoBecause you can’t run candidates who don’t want to.
minus-square@xmunklink0•2 months agoIf Biden actually stepped aside you would be astounded how many Dems put themselves forward as replacements. Right now everyone is being coy for party unity - but if you thought Whitmer was on Colbert just to promote a book you’re naive.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink3•2 months agoI love Whitmer. She’s my Governor, and I think she’d be an amazing President. But I really don’t think folks in Pennsylvania or Georgia know who she is. Maybe with enough appearances that could change, but we’re getting down to the wire.

I hope so! I just want the best candidate to beat Trump.
