I understand the "Quit Joe, Quit" folks... but they're wrong. [View all]

Schiff and the others aren't trying to get Trump elected... they're not answering to billionaires in exchange for donations...

They're worried.

They're worried that Biden may lose... and lose the Congress along with it.

Think of the consequences...

1) Alito and Thomas can retire and be replaced by Judges Kacsmaryk and Cannon. Roberts or Sotomayor may have health issues...

Schiff is worried about a 7-2 SCOTUS for the next 20 years.

2) Ukraine will be abandoned.

3) Millions of immigrants will literally be rounded up and shipped off.

4) Deterioration of rights... women's rights, civil rights, voting rights...

5) Wealth inequality will increase at a rapid pace as Billionaires achieve oligarch status

And there are many more...

So Schiff and the like are NOT crazy and they're not trying to damage the Party.

But they're WRONG.

Polling shows that Biden is polling ahead of the others. Just today a poll shows Biden polling above Harris.

And don't get me started with suggestions of Newsom or Whitmer...

Skip over Harris and the Party fractures.

But there's no polling evidence that she will beat Trump.

It's almost August, on the eve of the DNC... we can't change now.

Double down on Joe.

Send your best pitcher to the mound in Game 7 of the World Series even IF his last couple starts were not so good... experience always pays off in the big game.
