make this make sense

no, I'm not fucking celebrating this weekend. maybe you have some tips on avoiding the slow descent into autocracy or how to impress upon people that not giving power to a fascist conman is a wee bit more important than whether the president was mumbly at a debate?

... although if that's the worst Republicans can say about a Black woman who has utterly squandered her time as the most powerful woman in the history of American government, maybe that's a good sign...

the "khive" (they fucking wish they had the power of the beyhive) couldn't even keep their candidate in the primaries long enough to vote for her, their "support" is meaningless.

yes, let's replace the most accomplished Democratic incumbent in a generation with a candidate even more reviled than Hillary Clinton, that will secure a win against Trump. we literally already considered this matchup 5 years ago and she got so little support that she dropped out before primary voting even started. she never passed double digits in the polls and her only success was helping snipe Warren's campaign at its peak.

OKAY BUT WHO SPECIFICALLY? that's the whole fucking problem, everybody wishes the nominee was someone else but nobody can NAME THAT PERSON or agree on who it should be. we had a whole fucking primary about this 4 years ago, everybody knew it was going to be an issue this year and the majority STILL PICKED BIDEN so if you wanted "a vigorous Democratic leader" - if one even EXISTS - you should have fucking nominated them 4 years ago!

weird that apparently 80 is the threshold for this, especially when Trump is only 3 years younger than Biden and demonstrably more incoherent. I can't imagine telling a pollster "76 is fine. 80 is too old." ???

STOP STOP I'M ALREADY DEAD INSIDE

plot twist: the second & third "we" referred to the entire country

HE WASN'T EVEN PRESIDENT WHEN HE DID IT oh my fucking god we're cooked, America is dead.
