Biden and Harris must go

For months US Democrats have been wondering why voters were not supporting Joe Biden. He has been a good president, and enacted many worthy reforms. Donald Trump, by contrast, is clearly a dictator in the making.

The idea that American voters have elderly relatives and (love them though they do), know that an 81-year-old cannot take on a tough job, let alone stay in post until he is 86, did not seem to occur to them.

You are in a fight to save your democracy. You can’t expect others to do your fighting for you

Ah, Democrats were saying only this week, Trump is as rambling and senile as Biden. Maybe, but you need a candidate who can beat Trump not match his mental and physical decline.

In any case, in last night’s debate Biden looked in a far, far worse state than Trump.

So Democrats added a new coping strategy. They blamed the debate moderators for not fact-checking Trump.
