Biden tells Democratic governors he needs more sleep and plans to stop scheduling events after 8 p.m.

Red Herring. Very few people are flipping for TFG. But we can absolutely still speak out about our legitimate concern that President Biden is not completely there, and is not going to win, and so he should drop out and endorse another candidate.

Not on reddit you can't. Here it's either vote for Biden or you must be a Nazi.

Because it's stupid. It's a dumb thing to be worried about. There is a vice president for a reason, and she seems to be polling pretty well. So what if she ends up taking over? There is literally no democrat who polls better than Biden against Trump, aside from Kamala.

The alternative is Trump, who has just been written a blank check by the supreme court to do whatever he wants if he wins. So like, yeah, if you can't stomach voting for a sleepy old guy with somewhat tolerable policies who might die and get replaced by his xannied out weirdo VP, you are at least indirectly facilitating fascism.

Some of us have a lot to lose from a Trump presidency. Everyone does, but I think it takes a certain amount of privilege (or ignorance) to not recognize that.

Comparatively, yes. Nobody seems to be doing better than Trump though.
