He is incapable of pivoting on the crucial issues.
He desperately needs a national disaster, like a 911 or an Oklahoma City bombing.
Newsweek Poll last week shows Vice President Kamala Harris with two point lead over Desantis.
Time will tell. The more crazy ass candidates that the GOP runs, ... the better chance Democrats have.
Biden's poll numbers are low because he no longer connects with the people -- presents as too old -- running on half empty. Hence, he does not exude the "confidence" that voters demand in the oval office, despite a very steady performance despite all the global challenges and deep divisive tribalism and falsehoods fed by Fox News and right wing media.
Never thought Biden would seek a second term. He ran because he was the one person who was moderate and safe replacement to Donald Trump. Biden has restored the Government to what it should be -- competent, transparent, honorable, and responsive.

explain how
going from energy independence to begging for oil;
millions of wmd (fentanyl) carrying illegals can crash the border unchallenged;
incredible skyrocketing inflation;
global embarrassment (afghanistan, ukraine, etc., etc.);
complete lawlessness and disregard for the u.s. constitution;
and hunter
can be considered (as you put it) "competent, transparent, honorable, and responsive."
please explain each point so we who are immersed in simple common sense can better understand your logic.
and restore sanity to this country...I, too, have never expected Joe to push on past 2024...even if his approval numbers rebound sharply before then...which is a distinct possibility should Putin/Russia be forced to withdraw from Ukraine in the next two years. Given that hoped for eventuality, it's my suspicion that he would gladly pass the batton to someone else.

believe she was polling 4th in her home state of California. Desantis is just circling around Florida right now. Trump goes away and Desantis steps in his polling numbers sky rocket.

I'm guessing Conor and Chris already recognize the inevitable.
Thank goodness Kamala is ready to take over!

assertion that I'm using poll numbers to arrive at a moral judgement...each of those polls for the last five decades is a statement by the people of this country of what THEIR moral decision was/is when it comes to abortion...i.e. at the very least in some cases it should be legal...
You, Baron, and the other less than 20% of Americans are not "Holier than" the 80%...the vast majority of American citizens disagree with you...so YOU are the one who needs to do dome "Soul Searching".
On a related moral note...the Catholic Church considers Contraception to be a morally "Intrinsic Evil"...YET, as the attached link shows, nearly 95% of REPUBLICANS support Birth Control Pills, and I've got to believe there are more than a few Catholics in that 95%...btw, Contraception is the #1 means of stopping 'Un-Wanted Pregnancies', which are the root cause of women seeking abortion...is this not a totally bizarre moral situation?...more on this "Morality" in another post.

And, of course, those "polls" claimed can (I'll be kind and leave it there) be false anyways - misapplied, misinterpreted, etc in the direction of the person's desired outcome.
Regardless, one would think that if someone were sincere in using popularity polls as an argument for determining serious moral questions, they would AT THE VERY LEAST find the same popularity polls as reason to withdraw something as simple as political support for a candidate. If such a person were not willing to extend the polls enough credibility to withdraw political support on such a minor issue, then it would be clear that they would themselves not extend the credibility of such popularity polls to more serious questions with greater ramifications such as morality. Such a person would be revealing themselves as disingenuous.
consider it "Moral" to allow it in "Some Circumstances"...you are among a very small minority that doesn't agree...why is that?
