For months voters have been telling pollsters that they have serious concerns about Biden's age and the response has been finger wagging and telling people to get in line.

Any criticism of the Democratic party is an immediate label of support to the GOP and gets you classified as a "Trumper" so it's not surprising that voters having concerns is promptly ignored by the party. Because those concerns came from Trumpers! Obviously!

I was called a republican because I said they should replace Biden. As if the republicans are not absolutely thrilled to have Biden as their opponent right now.

It's any criticism. "I'm not a fan of" preceding any legitimate criticism is met with "so what are you, a TRUMP supporter?!" and it's the most annoying thing in the world.

It’s the same shit MAGA do calling republicans that don’t worship Trump Rinos but just the other side of the coin

Who would you replace him with? A specific name not a generic answer. Who?
