Biden bought us 4 years of serenity, good works and normalcy. After the Trump trash can fire years, Biden is the only choice. My choice. Do not step aside! Ps- yep on white men and real message of not wanting a black woman in a leadership position. 😡

Agree. Biden has fixed the mess he was handed by Trump. He needs another four years.

They've taken away Women's human rights! And there's no way any woman could be elected.

Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee passed today—July 20. I did not know her well but I believed she was a fierce warrior for human rights and decency.

This is exactly right. There is no compromise with the Project 2025 crowd. Anyone who actually thinks that they won’t do what they say they will do is kidding themselves. They have usurped an entire political party and are worshipping a buffoon who is willing to speak their language. Vote Blue, no matter who and be HEARD, not HERD.

I am ridin with Biden

ME TOO!!! I’m a 70yo woman and I have seen the reality of no access to safe abortions, no equality among races or genders, the way gay people just had to hide and not be able to live their life, and how men are approved as Supreme Court justices even though women tell their stories of abuse, even now. I’m not going back there. It’s Joe, or it’s the end of democracy as we know it.

NO ONE WILL BE SAFE IF TRUMP WINS!!! The press won't be necessary. They'll be told what to say. If the a president is immune, who needs a SCOTUS? A dictator can do what he wants, nationalize any company he wants, etc. The whims of the dictator will rule. End of safety for anybody.

I can see the script being written on the walls of division and chaos. It matters not what we the voters want. The bol weevils of the Dem political party will either charge forward behind the spear point of the band of sisters or form their typical circle and start shooting. This circle of division will be “not” uniting behind Kamala. Any man trying to cut in line will be the first to fire.

Hakeem Jeffries came out and said Biden was the nominee and we need to stand behind him! I’ll take it but it is a little late ⏰ we have to catch up and bring back all the people “hurt” by the media “craziness!!

I called his office yesterday, and Pelosi, Schumer, and Schiff and said knock it tf off. Schiff, seriously? The balls. I'm with you Jess on the white guy problem. The only white guy I want to be voting for is the one in office now. Agree on every point and said these things on my calls. If all of this is completely apparent to us they should know better.

My congressman Joe Morelle of NY, and the Maryland congressman, Jamie Raskin, want Biden to quit, as does Obama. Using public statements to force a man out of his presidency is absolutely vile, and I won't forget it. And Nancy Pelosi's hypocrisy in joining the chorus, holy shit the woman sat in the chair of Speaker of the House until she was 81 despite being told she should retire.

President Joe Biden is not doing well physically and mentally. There has to be honesty about that fact. Our allies are watching.

But Nancy stepped down.

So what? Really? Was it because she was forced out? No. It was because she left when she was damn good and ready.

She left when she was at the top of her game — when she knew it was right for the country.

Some of the supposed news from WA PO claiming Hakeem, Schumer and Pelosi are lies. I saw videos yesterday saying they back Biden. Then other msm getting info from WA PO report those same lies. HAKEEM, SCHUMER and PELOSI all back Biden, I learned yesterday. But exec team doesn’t allow me to post videos anymore. Maybe bc i am not a writer or they don’t like my videos, 🤷🏽‍♀️ dunno.

Thank you because I'm not believing press reports anymore but made calls just in case. The problem is, they are manufacturing consent to push him aside, because tons of Dems believe these reports and nobody but AOC is speaking out to say what really going on behind closed doors. From what I can tell, a lot of power grabbing with zero plan.

Today—July 20– Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee passed away. She was and will be remembered as a fierce champion of human rights and decency. She is another fallen soldier in this continuous war against hate and bigotry.

President Clinton said years ago that Democrats want to fall in love and Republicans fall in line.

Yes! I heard a great analogy. Instead of looking at a candidate like a future husband or wife, we need to look at candidates like buses. Which one will get us closest to where we want to go?

Well said! I suspect yours is actually the majority feeling. Biden is it, done and dusted. And HE is the best chance of winning.

Expand full comment

It's like throwing away ALL your cards in a poker game and thinking you're going to get a winning hand. I'll vote for ANY Dem on the ticket, but if the DNC tries to switch out Biden/Harris the R's are going to litigate this all the way to SCOTUS and we know they will justify anything that will harm the Dems.

Expand full comment

They really have no realistic alternative BUT Harris, since anyone else would be starting with zero campaign funds, and I am convinced that she would be savaged by the Republican concern trolls and their media lapdogs, as would almost anyone else. what candidates dfo they have with national name recognition? Newsom? Whitmer? Give me a break. The only Dem I think might have a chance to pull it off is Pritzker and I think he's made it clear he doesn't have his sights set on Washington. Nobody talking up Michelle Obama has any place in an adult conversation.

Expand full comment

Joe Biden was the voters' choice in the primary. With Kamala Harris. By 14,000,000 votes. Why are the talking heads even talking about this? As for future name recognition, could Tammy Duckworth be an interesting thought? But later. Later. AFTER the Biden-Harris ticket has won. For 2028. Harris-Duckworth? Just a thought...

YES, we need stick to Biden Harris. Maybe 2028 for others. Thank you. ☺️

I think they should completely unite behind Harris. The Dems have totally mishandled this. Why don't they focus on the complete UNFITNESS of 45 to ever hold office again!!!!!

Thank you. Newsome already made it super clear he's not available, and I think he would be assailable with what happening in CA right now. Sure he could do a debate. The concern trolls are real. Just think if there's this much pressure on Biden and he won against trump it will be savage with anyone else. And maybe all the screaming about Biden is the thing to pay attention to. GOP didn't want to run against Biden before because he was unassailable. I still think waiting it out will have the best result.

She has consistently said that she isn't interested in running for office.

I think this is a very serious matter, and very likely to happen, they can't win so they are looking for a way to sabotage the ticket and the election, and want to run against anyone but a white guy.

Let's call it "Smartest Man in the Room Syndrome." Like you, I'm betting instead on all the smart women I've met in all the rooms, rising up as only we can. From young women, with their futures at risk, to grandmas like you and me who aren't gonna let that happen.

I don't have any kids or grandkids, but I am definitely old enough to have them!

Actually, it doesn’t matter whether we have kids of our own. All of the kids in the world are our kids. It’s up to us to take care of them — even if their own parents are woefully misguided. ;)

I think of “Grandma” as a state of mind, more than anything. Village Elder. Yes, Laurie! All the kids are our kids, and all the elders are our grandparents in some way.

I was indifferent to Biden stepping aside if he wants to. However, I am no longer indifferent. He needs to stay in it. The leak of democratic leaders saying they want a whole new ticket did it for me. Who the hell are they to tell me my vote is meaningless. And if Biden steps aside I voted for Kamila Harris to be President. It’s why voting for Joe is so easy for me. I get both together and if for some reason Joe can’t conclude his 2nd term then I have exactly the person I want to step in. It’s a pro-American, pro-democracy, pro-peace and prosperity ticket, with decades of wisdom and experience, vetted by voters across our nation. Built to serve the public’s interests. That’s why I’m for Joe and Kamila.

Well said Jess. Today, right now, email whitehouse.gov and send separate messages of support to President Biden and vp Harris. It’s very easy to do! I told them that everyday Americans are in full support of their reelection because they have done a tremendous job for us. Show them! Then email your senators and rep if dems, especially senators Tester, Warner, Welch and rep Schiff to tell them you support Biden-Harris and they should too.

I emailed the White House in support of Joe and Kamala. Trying to find the email contacts for the others. I had already written to Brittany Pettersen of Colorado and told her I was shocked that she was willing to suggest that Joe step aside, and that we needed to ALL support the Democratic candidate.

I've discovered that many of them don't allow emails unless you are one of their constituents. So I guess it would be pen and paper and the US Postal Service.

I lied with Schiff. I used my brothers Los Angeles ZIP Code and then I was able to send an email.

As a Brit who has many American friends I believe that you have put your finger on the problem. What I see and read are ordinary democrats who trust Biden and want desperately to vote for him again, not just because he’s not a a wanabee megalomaniac like his opponent but because of the good he has done and can still do, and because he believes in democracy. Yes, he may be a bit flaky occasionally but he still makes stonking good speeches and his brain is fully functioning which is more than his opponent can say. They know that they can trust him, and Kamala to put them first. And that that cannot be said of the other lot.
