All this bluster about "wasting" millions of dollars attacking Biden is telling, because that's literally the GOP platform in a nutshell. God forbid they actually put forth policies that improve the lives of American citizens, or, I don't know, spend their time arguing their case for why their candidate should be president in the first place.

It's the "cheating" statement that's extra infuriating. This isn't a damn football game, we are trying to choose the best possible person to lead the country. YOU [the GOP] made the case that Biden wasn't that person and now you're mad they [the DNC] listened?

Try telling that to millions of Americans; That's literally how they see politics.
