Nah, F Wall Street Pete! A lot of LGBTQ hate him too because we saw who he really is.

Chased out of South Carolina, literally had to run, when he tried to take credit for the Fight for $15...

IMO the fact that he's a McKinsey alum is even worse of a red flag
And I'm not advocating for him. I'm literally just trying to think of who could possibly win over enough moderates to beat Trump in swing states.
I'd take these people over Trump in a heartbeat. No question. But if we're not going to get behind one of them right now, then we all need to start supporting Biden. And it sounds like that's what we're going to need to do.
I don't understand why so many people, right now in the last week and a half, are suddenly saying "let's replace Biden" after both parties pushed their candidate of choice through the primaries, and when we're literally just months away from the actual election.
Like, are we seriously that dumb? Are there really that many election disinformation bots running around Lemmy? What the fuck is happening?
ETA: nvm, didn't realize the primaries happen so close to the election. Disregard my comment then.
