If your takeaway from that article is “the debate didn’t hurt Biden”, the article entitled “Biden suffers less polling damage than expected…”, then I have some doubts about your ability to recognize your own bias.

Idk those are young people who already took the time to go to a Hillary Clinton rally. Maybe a few of them were inspired but the vast majority of young voters saw that as the pandering that it was.
Are you speaking as a well-positioned party superdelegate, member of the DNC leadership committee, or mega-donor? Or are you some internet armchair asshole watching this trainwreck from the nosebleed seats?
Oh, I’m neither. I’m someone who is going to be forced to deal with the consequences of this shitshow however it plays out. Since I, through no choice of my own, have skin in this game, I’m as entitled to my opinion as you are. Biden should step aside, and it is the morally correct move to do so.
he’s forced
Biden isn’t forced to do anything. He wasn’t forced to adopt Trump’s immigration policies, and he sure as shit wasn’t forced to pivot from the strongest issue the Dems have to one of the weakest.
It won’t happen because Biden doesn’t want to do any of those things. The DNC would rather risk the nation crumbling into fascism than take any of those steps to stop it.
He missed a slam dunk when he pivoted from abortion to immigration, there was no logical reason to do that. Let alone some of his other statements. We need an open convention, if Trump is as big of a threat to democracy as Dems (accurately) claim then it is far past time that they start acting like it.
Totally correct, and that doesn’t make Biden any better.
Carlin was vulgar, but he never punched down. I firmly believe his comedy would be as accepted today as it was when he made it.
It’s super weird to assume that criticizing a politician automatically means someone supports the opposition candidate.
Seems like Biden should listen to his constituents if he wants to win re-election.
Seems like a waste of time lol. Shaming people has never been a good way to get their vote, if anything it just alienates them further.
I love how you view the idea of Democrats actually changing direction based on the views of their constituents (you know, the entire basis of democracy) as such an impossible idea, and the idea that Biden will not change direction on Israel as such a foregone conclusion.
The election is eight months away, Biden has plenty of time to grow a spine and stand up to Netanyahu. This might not salvage all the votes he has lost, but I think it will salvage enough. Rather than browbeating people on the internet about how they should vote for Biden regardless, maybe start pressuring Dems to take action to ensure that Republicans don’t take the presidency.
No one is losing sight of that, they’re correctly making the point that there is no justification for bombing a hospital full of patients and that the justification the IDF gave has been found to be false.
