I love that in all the scenarios, we have to be “pragmatic” and not let perfect be the enemy of good, but Biden has to do nothing.

Yeah, that's the part that sits badly about this whole angle to me. What, I owe a bunch of completely detached motherfuckers success? They sure seem like they're barely bothering to show up. If I was halfassing my job this bad i'd've been fired a year ago.

He's not even doing that, he's being actively terrible. But we're told we have to vote for him because the other guy is going to be MORE terrible.

Maybe if libs want us to vote for him, he should try and not do terrible things? Just a thought.

Don't let the perfect be the enemy of good. I know Claudia de la Cruz has some flaws like being the underdog, but she's the best candidate we can get on the ballot!
