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.

Last night's disaster just proved their point. Heck, even I have concerns now. Of course I am never going to vote for an orange rapist, but this debate has done NOTHING to assuage the fears of age.

They are going to quadruple down and if Biden poofs into a pile of ashes before the election, the DNC will dig Dianne Feinstein out of her grave.

The DNC heard people saying "a corpse is better than Trump" and took it as a challenge.

Fuck every DNC leader.

last night's debate is exactly why there should have been a legitimate primary challenge with town halls and debates. Dems learned nothing from 2016. They force through their 'legacy' picks and the will of the voters be damned. Cheapens the hell out of their "defending American democracy at all costs" message when they refuse to listen to their constituency.

Anyone fed up with both parties should look to bury MAGA in 2024 and bury the DNC in 2028. It's time for real change.

What you need to break American politics out of its deadlock is ranked choice vot8ng and give people a range of choices.
