Do you consider yourself properly informed because it seems like you just blindly support whomever the party leaders tell you to support.
What gives you that impression?
Your comments and this being probably the 10th post I've seen you uttering the same things in.
what the media bandwagon is doing is similar to the plan trump had in his first term:
repeal the aca
develop a plan
implement the plan
except the time period between steps 1 and 3 could not just be years but could be DECADES. meanwhile, the aca is still repealed and people would suffer.
any plan that calls for removal that also doesn't simultaneously install a replacement is a bad plan. so far the only viable plan is for kamala to take over since she has the legal access to the campaign warchest and already has a ground infrastructure in place. and if kamala takes over biden immediately makes him an immediate lame duck as president since it would be signalling that he can't do the job now. and there is a lot more fantasizing of probable picks as a ticket that do not include kamala harris. which makes all of those fantasy tickets illogical.
this is not sticking with biden because we like him. it's about sticking with biden because making any kind of change to the ticket historically guarantees another trump term.
I used logic rather than emotion to determine my opinion that we should have a suitable replacement before asking to remove our candidate. That may be an unfamiliar concept to you.
