Biden is an absolutely top shelf human being. He was who we needed to beat Trump in 2020 and ge the country back on track. He is a consummate public servant and has been from day one.
I have so incredibly much respect for him, and it’s frankly insulting to say he was pushed out in some Machiavellian plot. No, he realized it was time and stepped down. Given how energized Democrats are and the RNC is shitting itself it was a good call. That is his thing- he isn’t flashy. He has gaffs on mic, he stutters. He is just a pure public servant in the vein we just don’t see anymore so we can’t believe he is really that.

He is just a pure public servant in the vein we just don’t see anymore so we can’t believe he is really that. I don’t believe it was Machiavellian, but he was pushed out. Media is not doing well so when Biden had his terrible debate, they found something that gave them clicks and ratings. Then it affected polls. Then donors got nervous. And the beat goes on. Yes, he realized he needed to step down, but I don’t believe he did it because he believed he couldn’t do the job anymore. That’s not why it was “time”. His path to victory evaporated due to the media meltdown of the last several weeks. That is what he recognized and what led to his decision. I believe he made the right decision given the events since the debate. I also believe he was treated horribly by the media.
