New York Times just reported a new poll. 64% of all Democrats don't want Biden to run again. 95% of Democrats under 30 don't want him to run again.

@RodionRomanovitch I didn't say he made wise decisions, didn't even suggest he did. In fact, I think he was surprised by the opposition he encountered. Shouldn't have been, but I think he was.

What do you think he could have got past the Senate or on his own (executive power) that was much more meaningful?

The Democratic Party began floundering when President Obama took office. They did not expect, not at all, the opposition they would face when a Black person was put in the White House. If they don't get their act together and begin getting down in the trenches and fighting, the Republicans will be the dominant force in our Federal government. They have already shown what they are capable of. People need to wake up.

@Ontheroad I think he should have spent that time organising a coherent strategy against the attack on voting rights and , what he must have known was coming , the SC abortion ruling. And he should have moved heaven and earth to get the recalcitrants in his own party to get rid of the filibuster. If he'd have put as much energy into that as trying to cajole his old Republican buddies in the Senate we might be in a very different place today.

@RodionRomanovitch I don't disagree, but but I doubt seriously Manchin could have been swayed and he alone held the vote needed for those actions. The voting rights issues and Rove v Wade were never something he or the Democrats had any say so in, not since Trump and Mcconnell stacked the deck in the SCOTUS.

trump lost 40 trillion for the economy and lost millions and millions of jobs.
He increased the national debt by spending 10 trillion…again 10 trillion when he inherited a strong economy and then decimated it because of the STUPID way he handle Covid. He was so stupid he caught it himself and had to get the top tier medical help or die.
Two things I remember my guy Joe doing. He helped me with much needed money so I andimillions of people were not made homeless because of the pinhead before.
McConnell fought against the money given to average Americans. trump demanded his signature on the first check and confused a lot of Hispanics on who drove that money.
Joe brought together NATO as a much needed leader and led the effort to oppose the[b][big] piece of shit[/big][/b] putin. trump would have supported that piece of shit and so we have an increase in fuel prices. That is a small price to pay considering that Reagan and Bush 41 spent the first 6 trillion of our national debt to oppose the Soviet Union. This blip is small compared to that.

@Aliveshock Have you ever heard of Covid-19? The virus cost billion$/

@StrictSouthernHOH
Tearing apart the Soviet Union in the early 80s cost trillions. Are you making a point. It still doesn’t take away from the fact that the previous loser was holding super spreader events while Covid was just starting to grow exponentially.

@CorvusBlackthorne Will he though ?

@RodionRomanovitch Probably not.

@SW-User ..and .0579% of them would be correct.

@justanothername I wonder what was so bad about Trump's presidency. Was it the strong economy and low inflation? Were gas prices too low? Were there not enough wars? I know Trump was never politically correct, but we did pretty well overall under his leadership.

@StrictSouthernHOH It was the total disregard for anyone other than himself.
Yes, the economy was ok but he caused a LOT of friction and upheaval over COVID. He basically threw fuel over any social issue fire that popped up during his Presidency and just fanned the flames of discontent. He basically acted like a spoilt immature kid rather than a generally responsible leader.

@Jimmy2016
We already did that the time before.
