Joe Biden's age has people worried he'll repeat Ruth Bader Ginsburg's mistake and refuse to step down despite the high stakes of this year's election.

      Mmmm. No. The Dems have had to slowly drift rightwards to ensure they get some votes from those influenced by the rightwing media ecosystem.

        No, party leadership drifts rightwards and counts on their fans making up excuses for them.

              I’m not happy with it but claiming the only way to react is not to vote is a classic disinformation tactic.

              OP is a Rightwing / Russian shitbag.

                I doubt that.

                I did not claim that.

                Yes, centrists say that about everyone to their left.

                  Oh are you ‘left’ now?!? Because it seems to me that you are doing everything you can to sabotage and demoralise the Dems and help the GOP.

                    I’m not going to apologize for being unhappy with the party’s decades-long shift to the right.

                    I love how when centrists can’t defend how utterly useless they’ve made the party, they start calling people republicans and russians.
