    Because Biden is a distasteful choice for president. That being said, there are no other strong options right now so we’re stuck with it.

      My naive theory is that Biden plans to drop out as late as possible so that he can take a media beating from the Republicunts and protect the real DNC nominee.

      How so? The Rest is Politics identified a few candidates who are more than capable, Gavin Newsom among them.

        Sadly, I suspect the average voter isn’t really aware of who Newsom is. People are really disconnected from anything but the biggest headlines.

          Every voting person would know within a week if Biden stepped down and gave 1/4th the support to the new candidate what he gives to Israel’s far right wing government.
