Bootygig would piss a lot of the base off to pass over a POC woman who would literally be president anyways the moment Joe croaks.

He's probably a better pick for the country, but the DNC doesn't give a shit about that. I don't think he's a particularly strong pick, but he's better than Harris.

I think the best option to win the election would be to pick someone that's not a part of the current administration. And we can definitely count on that not happening. The DNC is too up their own ass with everyone getting their compensation for previous "support" once the positions open up.

I agree totally. He's not the best option, just the best option that's plausible if we entertain the hypothetical that Joe isn't running. Also, yeah it probably would piss some people off to skip Harris, so it's probably her no matter what.
