in that case, people should vote for the one who gave zillions in tax breaks to the 1%, not the one who canceled zillions in student debt.

Could only manage a few minutes. It was painful.
Biden was frail, Trump went on a tirade of bullshit without answering questions.
The US is (even more) fucked. Whoever wins.

That went well.
Too late really, can they get away with replacing Biden at this stage? Trump's campaign will eat them alive if they do.
Well done Dems, lessons learned from 2016 = zero.

The level of debate:
"You're a loser"
"No, you're a loser"
"No, you're a loser"
"No, you're a loser"
ad nauseum
"You're a loser"
"No, you're a loser"
"No, you're a loser"
"No, you're a loser"
ad nauseum

Looking at the output from both presidencies theres a clear bias towards the current one being going towards making things better rather than the last one actively trying to make things worse. Neither of them should be really standing, Biden is at least using the people around him to try and go forwards tho. Trump is just making up random shit to the point where if you write in the same tone its virtually impossible to tell if he said it or not without a video recording because its so outlandish it sounds made up and theres so much of it theres actually websites keeping track.

Well to be fair they've had more practice every week at PMQs.
They both truly are mass debaters.

Stick or twist for the Democrats regarding a Presidential candidate. I think they'll stick with him however they need to to be seriously identifying and promoting some potential replacements.
So apparently the only way they can replace him is if he voluntarily steps down. Which he's indicated he's not going to do. Is there anything in the law that can make a President step down on mental grounds? He's clearly senile.
If he truly loved his country, and well, the world, he'd do the decent thing here. Because otherwise we could seriously be looking at WW3. He's got no chance against the orange one.
I know presidents can only serve two terms.. But is that consecutive terms? Could Trump run again in four years time? I have this horrible vision of Trump/Johnson being in power at the same time again if the rumours are true and Boris is planning his own comeback.

We are looking at ww3. There are ways to remove a president, both formal and informal. Perhaps you'd benefit from reading the US constitution.

Biden isn't even the nominee at this point in time. There is absolutely nothing (legally or formally) to stop the DCC from dumping him and impose someone who can at least put a sentence together.
Only problem would be, who the fuck would replace the useless old fart?

Don't have time. And I suspect its a load of shit if nobody thought to include something like convicted felons being President being disallowed. This is through the looking glass now.

No it's 2 terms in total not consecutive.
Donald Trump the road that might not lead to the White House - Redux 2024 thread.
I'm not sure what the rules say. Are they that you can't win more than two elections, or that you can't serve more than two terms? In his tiny mind he's aiming to do the former, but hasn't been allowed to serve his deservedly won second term. Section 1 No person shall be elected to the office...

good read on why he should step down and Kamala would be OK.

Honor demands Joe Biden step aside
Democrats need an effective nominee, this isn't it

except it doesn't even (quite) say that:
The Democratic National Committee could convene before the convention opens on August 19 and change how things will work, but that isn’t likely as long as Biden wants to continue seeking reelection.
The rules binding delegates to their nominees aren't really legally binding, its mostly precedent.
“Delegates elected to the national convention pledged to a presidential candidate shall in all good conscience reflect the sentiments of those who elected them.”
You could easily argue about what 'reflecting the sentiments' means when the nominee has clearly lost it.
There would be one humungous row if if he refused to go quietly, but it's not impossible. Merely highly unlikely.
