Biden not contesting.

Shouldn't have taken two weeks to finally stand down but at least he's doing the right thing.

Still no guarantee that who they choose beats Teflon Don.

Finally...

He will go out with his legacy intact.

He's going to make sure the next shooter gets it right before he steps down to let the country start afresh.

I’ll be amazed if it’s not Harris.

If you’re a Gavin Newsom you’ll want to keep your powder dry til 2028 surely.

Sadly I don’t think there’s much they can do now to stop Trump this November.

Great news. For his own well-being and for the US.

Now get someone with a modicum of respectability and vigour to replace him and kick that fascist orange mess to the dirt.

The new candidate just has to look younger, competent and most of all sane.

They need Keir Starmer.

The voters could put Trump in and give Dems both Houses with a decent majority.

They'd impeach him immediately.

His legacy is facilitating genocide.
