The Dems must know that they can beat Trump with another nominee. Otherwise, they would not have been pressuring him to step down over the last several weeks.

Doesn’t matter.

It matters that Trump does NOT get elected.

Still need more pressure to keep project 2025 from never seeing the light of day.

Yes, of course.

...women coming to the polls to vote for their reproductive rights might skew the numbers more in favour of Democrats, independent of polling.

Precisely!

I watched it. The fear of waffling instead of confidence. I get it. I understand. However, I'm just one person. In the end, the Democratic party will choose what to do. Personally, I believe that it would be disastrous to have Trump (and his cronies) in office again. So, my choice comes down to voting for whoever is the opponent of Trump.

As it stands right now, Biden could pull out (voluntarily) of the presidential race as early as this weekend. If that turns out to be the case, then there is a fairly good chance that VP Kamala Harris could run for POTUS.

Gloom and doom is not going to win the election. Endless panicked articles are not going to win the election. People going out and voting will, and you, person reading this, have the power to get more people to go vote.

This is so true and I learned about this about 18 years ago. I haven't missed a voting cycle since and I try to encourage people to vote as much as I possibly can.

The RNC has 6 Million LESS viewers than 2016. That's quite a swing!

 

No matter what the polls ever say, the most important thing to do is vote and encourage others to vote.

Yeah you may be right.

He'll, more than likely, resign.

They better vote against all these christo-fascist MAGA nut jobs then.

I have not followed this story closely, if not very much at all. Is this just another example of the uber-wealthy getting away with crimes in broad daylight? Or is this something else entirely?

 

There is always an incredible amount of fear-mongering and general negativity in the US media. This is especially so for politics.

Here is my unsolicited advice:

  1. Ignore the media including polls.
  2. If you are capable, then please do some canvasing.
  3. Vote and encourage those around you to vote.
