    Not a single person voting Democrat does so because they thought Biden was a great candidate.

    This is where you lost me. As if boomer Democrats are not a thing. But let’s keep on reading…

    It appears nobody has learned anything from Hillary’s loss in 2016.

    Lost me again. I don’t know why people keep forgetting about 2020.

      It’s unlikely that they forgot about boomer Democrats. Many of us have parents or grandparents who qualify. I can’t think of a single person who told me how great of a candidate Biden was. I don’t remember anyone who was extremely excited by the policies he wanted to enact. Of course I can only talk about people that I met, my friends and family and community.

        Were it not for Israel, I’d be telling you about how great Biden has been domestically (except the boarder). His administration has by and large been very progressive with the policies it’s enacted. Biden’s abhorrent sucking up to Israel during an active genocide is the huge dark spot on his presidency.

        It is a bit dumb that “he’s too old” is what got him out.

      Biden won marginally because he was marginally better than Hillary and was the Obama guy.

      Bernie would have won by a landslide.
