Yeah, you're getting a new nominee.

The question is: Can the dems rally donors around Harris?

Only if Biden steps aside, which he hasn't (yet) said he will do. I suppose there could be a revolt at the convention, but that seems unlikely (at least not a big enough one to get a sitting POTUS off the ballot).

But if Harris does end up with the nomination, I'll still vote against convict Trump. Convict Trump is the penultimate of corruption, sleazebaggery, incompetence, and undemocraticness (lower-case 'd'). Currently there is no one worse in American politics than him. Full stop.

If a half-eaten ham sandwich was on the ballot, I'd still vote against Trump.

Good for you. Trump's record as President >>>> Biden's on...pretty much any measure one could compare.

Oh, for you CHIPS act fans: DEI killed it.

https://thehill.com/opinion/4517470-dei-killed-the...

The Biden administration recently promised it will finally loosen the purse strings on $39 billion of CHIPS Act grants to encourage semiconductor fabrication in the U.S. But less than a week later, Intel announced that it’s putting the brakes on its Columbus factory. The Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) has pushed back production at its second Arizona foundry. The remaining major chipmaker, Samsung, just delayed its first Texas fab.

This is not the way companies typically respond to multi-billion-dollar subsidies. So what explains chipmakers’ apparent ingratitude? In large part, frustration with DEI requirements embedded in the CHIPS Act.


See, this is the reason why democrats never, ever accomplish anything of substance: Because their model is to pander 24/7 the legislation that gets passed is always crippled by regulations or other land mines that blow up progress.

I won't reiterate what others have already said. But Biden's record is leaps and bounds better, by any measure. Refer to previous posts by Peter and GoofyHoofy, and others, for the list.
