I read more of the stories. I think Joe will step aside. There's too much pressure against him. I don't know who will take his place, but I think he's gone.

Sadly, though, the two name that are given as replacements, newso!e and harris, are both very weak candidates.

Joe could always step down, but it's doubtful that's in the cards. Besides, does anyone think Kamala could carry it?
Kamala is no chance.

The smart move would be Pete Buttgeig. Young, dynamic, speaks well and would tie the orange cunt in knots.

He'd be a good choice. But he is gay, which is a no-no for some parts of America. On the other hand, he is also a war veteran, which must make those parts of America completely insane.

The other name I'm reading a lot is Gavin Newsom.

The fact that Pete is gay doesn't matter much. The people who won't vote for a gay man won't vote for any Democrat.

Trans is a bigger issue, though. Any candidate who supports full trans rights based solely on self id will lose some votes in the general. Newsome is tainted with that, and his twenty dollar minimum wage law.

In my opinion, Newsome is a media appointed candidate. Not many people know him. Fewer like him. He has name recognition because he is in the news, but he doesn't generate excitement.

That leaves,,...well, there must be someone.

Eta: I think Harris will be the nnominee. Although widely hated, I think her negatives are less than newsome.

He doesn't have to generate excitement, he just has to be better than the alternative, which I remind you is not a high bar.

My point about excitement is that no-one would be talking about him except that the media talks about him. He doesn't bring a bunch of supporters. Meanwhile he has negatives.

Better than trump is not a high bar, to me. Better than a typical Democrat is not a high bar for an awful lot, maybe most, Americans.

And I know "woke" is a bit of a peeve with you, but for a lot of Americans, it's a big deal. Clearing a low bar isn't hard, unless you have to start your jump in a hole.

If and when the Democrats start to concentrate on winning the election Illinois governor JB Pritzker would be a good choce IMO.

Joe is a narcissist.
He thinks he did well.
He won't pull out.

The dems deserve extinction.
