Joe Biden

[Jimbo]

Yay! Joe.

[Jimbo]

No one has anything to say? How about refuting that the man is a physical and mental wreck and should not be running for president. Or do you see in him a picture of robust health and that he'll do a fine job? Or would you support Caligula's horse over Trump for the job?

Who would you like to see as his VP considering ...?

B please.

Who would you like to see as his VP considering ...?

Warren, of course.

[The Prof]

"Settle For Biden" is hardly the most inspiring slogan... and he's not the most inspiring politician but..surely.... anyone but Trump.

Settle for Biden? This is something out of the Onion, right?

[Brickyard Jack]

Joe Biden is a safe pair of hands while we wait for the next politcian of vision to appear.

VP choice? Someone who sees into the future. I would pick Stacey Abrams or maybe Kamala Harris.

Joe is in fine health for his age. He has always had a little problem with his speech. I would say Trump is the one falling apart his speeches lately are down right lunacy. He stumbles over words all the time .




No I'm Settling for Biden, while he was far from my first pick, I'm happy to vote for Joe.
I am concerned about who he picks for VP, but it certainly will be better than Pence.

Jimbo, if you think that Biden is a 'physical and mental wreck' but not Trump, who literally cannot speak in complete sentences and is obese, then you really have lost it.

The choice is not so stark for me. Joe's infirmities aside, he is (or will be) the head of a political party that hasn't done shit for the vast progressive majority of its membership, i.e., Medicare for all. Also the party has voted along with Trump for war and military expansion, and his wall. Adding insult to injury this party is allowing this doddering man to be its representative. Given that they're both horrible candidates, for entertainment's sake, I'd kinda rather see an actual bull in a china shop do its thing.

For VP he should choose Amy Klobachar. She struck me as a hard worker and capable administrator.

Yes, how everyone living in the powder keg that is the Middle East laughed when Orangey went on the TV and thoughtlessly informed the world that Monday's Beirut explosion was the result of an attack.

Given that they're both horrible candidates

One of which you campaigned for during the last election cycle and lauded his achievements for the first year or so of his Presidency.

And there really is no comparison between them.
OK so they have both been accused of sexual assaults - although I thinkTrump has about ten times the volume of complaints against him and is on record describing how he goes about the process of assaulting women.

Then you have the whole white supremacy thing, the fundies, the pro-lifers - literally all the worst people in the US (the world) support Trump.

Biden may be a total bellend but compared to Trump he's a fucking minnow.

That's what I call that a hosanna! Count me in. I'm with Joe!

Wait ... wait ... Who's the minnow?

Ahh fuggit. Even if Biden is a minnow or a sea slug, he's better than Trump and he's the man to lead the USA!

And us Brits are so sniffy in insisting that our Colonial cousins don't "do" irony!

[Tactful Cactus]

Its a bit redundant. Everyone knows that Biden will be a better President. Its disingenuous and trolly to pretend otherwise. The better question is whether America wants to restore some credibility in the world, or if they still want to turn their back and implode.

The big points gap between the two has me worried because it breeds apathy. If people think Joe's a shoe-in then they won't bother to help the campaign, or maybe even to vote? The points lead always seems to evaporate in the final weeks until its neck and neck (emphasis on "seems", I have no evidence for this). By then it could be too late to energize people. I'd prefer if it was more like 50-50 right now.

[Hightea]

Kamela Harris will be Joe's VP

[BARON CORNY DOG]

Kamela Harris will be Joe's VP

He has to win the election (and the election lawsuits) first!

[BARON CORNY DOG]

She was pretty low on my list but people on social media sure as hell seem fired up!

[Jimbo]

As this race goes on I see it more and more as Dumb vs Dumber. Which candidate is dumber is up to you. I think it is Biden because how dumb the Democrats are to have allowed this senile, doddering, handsy old man into the contest tips the scale. But Dumb Trump ain't smarter, just somehow crafty enough to have slipped through the gauntlet of first, his election, then the electoral college, then Russiagate, then Ukrainegate, now Covidgate, and on and on until he will weasel his way back into office in November.
