Why is the Democratic Party telling us that Joe Biden is the best alternative that we have for president?
I am a lifelong Democrat. I always vote. I’ll vote for Joe Biden this November if he’s the only alternative I have to Donald Trump, but let’s be honest: Joe Biden’s “bad night” was a disaster. I sure hope he isn’t having a “bad night” when China invades Taiwan at 2 a.m., or Putin nukes Kiev, or Israel and Iran decide to go at one another, or foreign hackers bring down our grid.
I love Joe Biden, but I can only conclude that Democrats in his administration, who are telling him to stay in the race, are more concerned about their own political status than the good of the country.
