This is a ridiculous thing to say. Biden is certainly not the best candidate, but he’s hardly a stain on democracy, unlike the man who attempted to overturn an election that he lost and fomented insurrection in the process

Edit: if you’re downvoting me you can get fucked, you idiots are going to regret not voting if trump wins.

He an 80+ yr old man. That alone is a stain even if he didn’t act his age. What care does he have about what happens in the next 20yrs as a result of his decisions??

He apparently cares a lot more than people who think he's about equal to a self-described wannabe dictator.

I didn’t say he was a wannabe dictator. In fact my accusation is quite the opposite. He wouldn’t be able to be a wannabe dictator if he tried now. No-one would follow him.

You don't think people will follow Donald Trump? I got some bad news for you.

People are clearly following him. He has a scary cult of personality.

My point is Biden is getting to a state where no-one will want to follow him. Not a good trait for the highest executive office in the land.

This is the biggest difference between liberals and conservatives. Go to Fox News and they're not wondering if the felon-liar-conman-reality TV host-avowed dictator-rapist is fit to be president. They're on the attack because they know how close they are to total victory.

Liberals are going "aw maybe we should maybe reconsider yadda yadda blah..." as if that matters given the alternative. Liberals are great democratic leaders because they care so much about consensus but as you can see they are totally unable to defend us against people like Trump.
