#(tho i do think it's telling that neither ossoff nor warnock ever said anything about all of this)

the thing is, most of my strong disdain about this isn't necessarily towards some of the politicians who made statements wanting biden to drop out, because at least some of them are making a calculation on what would help their reelection (joe manchin can choke tho along with people in safe seats like seth moulton", it's primarily a) the donor class b) some very obviously biased journos and c) honestly regular people who saw A bad performance and freaked the fuck out and fed into this frenzy for weeks in a way that now makes this entire party look childish and stupid and flaky.
but i'm all in on kamala so it's not gonna matter until december anyway, and even then i'm still gonna be a democrat until the day i die.
#personal#like jon tester is running for reelection as a democrat in montana#so him doing whatever polls best in order to win doesn't bother me#(tho i do think it's telling that neither ossoff nor warnock ever said anything about all of this)#but this was a self fulfilling prophecy#the minute people kept being credible about this beyond 24 hours biden was gonna have to step down#because people were acting like utter CHILDREN and refusing to just grow up and not catastrophize#and between actors being angry about higher taxes (sorry george but i don't take your 'he was infirm' thing seriously)#(when you're only saying it two weeks after the fact and after days of bad headlines you clearly weren't concerned enough beforehand)#and the very very obvious biases from some journos (literally look at how fast brian stelter pivoted legit today)#i don't have patience for ordinary people running around like chickens with their heads cut off#at least now you don't have any excuse to not grow tf up and toe the line and vote blue
