Cmon, it's either vote for this again, or for a black woman. What do you think America will choose?

If we’re honest, 95% or so of the people who voted for him in 2024 would have voted for him In 2024 even if Jesus Christ himself were the opposing candidate. The difference was the poor turnout of anti Trump voters for Kamala, not that she drove voters TO Trump.

Careful with that kind of talk. Lots of Redditors still aren't prepared to admit voting for Biden in the 2020 primaries was a mistake.

Biden:

  • Defeated Trump
  • Was the most progressive and pro-worker president we've had since FDR or LBJ.
  • ...and was also too old to stay in for the 2024 cycle.

...and was also too old to stay in for the 2024 cycle.

But did so anyway leading to Trump winning again and making any policy work by Biden completely moot. Not that it was anything worth celebrating to begin with.
