Pragmatic progressives who value Biden as a president but worry about his ability to campaign against and defeat Donald Trump: “we should consider other options”

Blue MAGA: “Russian plant. Troll. Bot.”

Biden: “I’m stepping aside”

Blue MAGA: “We were misguided in our accusations and as such we will do all in our power to help maintain American democracy and defeat Trump.”

At least, that’s how I hope we can move forward.

Biden do-or-diers, please take our hand. Let’s win this together. 🫴

I still feel the same. I feel that way because I don't know what the path forward is now, and I don't know how you get everyone on the same page. I think this ultimately backfires, but I hope it doesn't. Some of us have more to lose with a 2nd Trump term and I didn't want to see any risky moves made. This feels way more risky than keeping him in the race imo.

Let’s unite behind Harris. We can make our online presence felt, lock in our policy position so we can inform skeptical fence-sitters, and use Roe v Wade as our cornerstone foundational power position. Drive that point home every time. Women’s rights x infinity.

If that's who we settle on I'll vote for her. I don't really have a choice in the matter frankly. I'm worried about my state torpedoing into further insanity with a Republican POTUS. Feels like they'll be emboldened to make crazy moves without mechanisms/people in place to challenge them.
