    IDK, i think the timing was strategic and about as good as it could’ve been. they wasted most of the GOP resources by dragging Biden out as long as he could, and now Trump is locked in to a fight he didn’t want to sign up for. but it’s too late now. lol

    their shock at Biden actually stepping down kinda tells me that they are not used to leaders who do what the people ask for

      Right? They waited till the GOP locked in messaging AND made a VP pick AND were done with the convention.

      Then they dropped the hammer, denied them the convention bounce by stealing all the media oxygen AND rendered their messaging not just obsolete but actively harmful to them (candidate is old? You’re right) AND now they are stuck with a VP that hurts them with the demo Harris is going to make major gains in.

      If I didn’t know better, I’d think the democrats were actually organized and disciplined for once.
