Before all you righties get too comfortable with the NY Times calling on Biden to drop out, they talked about Trump today.

Donald Trump is unfit to lead.
He is dangerous in word, deed and action.
He puts self over country.
He loathes the laws we live by.

A once great political party now serves the interests of one man, a man as demonstrably unsuited for the office of president as any to run in the long history of the Republic, a man whose values, temperament, ideas and language are directly opposed to so much of what has made this country great.


It doesn't get better from there.

You'll never convince the base, like Dope or LM. He still thinks convict Trump's record/achievements eclipses Biden, even though it it demonstrably not true (as many others have pointed out many times).

Fortunately, elections are not decided by the bases of either party. They're decided by the independent and swing voters. Those folks need to be informed of Biden's accomplishments. Which the Dems are doing a poor job of. I'm more politically aware than average, though far from a voracious consumer of political news. And even I wasn't aware of some of the stuff Biden had done until someone on this board posted it. If I'm not aware, likely the average swing voter isn't aware, either. The Dems need to fix that, regardless of whom the final candidate is (e.g. Harris).

I read an article a few months ago that one problem the Dems have is that their accomplishments are often internal, invisible to the average person going about their daily lives. They are necessary, and important, but we -the public- don't really see them.

One thing I have noticed is that Bidens solutions are often delivered as a program, eg a complicated energy credit that must be applied for versus a energy policy that drives down costs in the first place. The consumer will not internalize the benefits of the program as readily as the seeing the price on the pump with his own eyes.
