A lot of people talk about how Biden needs to “earn my vote.” Of course he didn’t “earn your vote.” But I think this is less about what he owes us & more about what we owe millions of people in this country & billions throughout the world who will be affected by a 2nd Trump term.

If that's the case, UR making the same argument Joe is. He's not Trump. so what. Evn if Joe wins, Trump's gone, then what? He'll continue DJT's policies which BO & JB set the stage for NE ways. Joe's camp is not making promises b/c they don't want 2 be held accountable 4 them!

He will not continue Trump’s policies! I’m not saying you or I would be thrilled with his policies, but they will be a pause in the action that will give us the time to regroup and create a path of fundamental change. We’ll have a fighting chance.

Yes he will b/c Obama & Biden continued policies from Reagan on! These policies are what lead someone like Trump to rise to power! This pause you speak of will lead to someone w/ Trump's agenda, but is actually competent enough to implement it!

Keep trying, Marianne. This perspective is inconsistent with many of the things you have said on social media over the last year or so, though I know a part of you believes what you say here. I know another part of you believes and wants to give all your heart to another goal.

"A pause in the action that will give us the time to regroup". Exactly what we need! An 8-year pause in the action, time to regroup to secure possibility of baby steps toward halfway measures starting sometime out past 2030. Which is OK, since we've got plenty of time. Relax!

No. No we won't. Because history. Doing the same strategy, over and over, and expecting different results without changing anything in the strategy? INSANITY. The DNC isn't going to fix anything. The difference will be which cable news outlet has it's hair on fire.

His no change policy will lead to many unhappy people and give us a Don Jr in 2024. There will be no pause, libs will go back to sleep, MAGAts will be angry trump lost and call it “cheating” and “fraud” and fill the streets and smear propaganda thicker than ever.

Only one believes in climate change. Only one believes black lives matter. Only one believes in a women’s right to choose.

We don't have time for pauses, did you not see that the Arctic permafrost melted and is expelling tons and tons of methane? Did you not hear about the huge crater that appeared there? We do NOT have the time to "take a pause", much less while making climate change worse.

The activist always talk about fundamental change. What they don’t get about Trump voters is they don’t want fundamental change. They want a dynamic economy paying excellent wages for working people. But also they want to be left alone. Fundamental change is all about disruption.
