I think one of yesterday's biggest stories was missed. The President of the Teamsters spoke in favor of Trump at the convention. Biden actively joined a strike last year. Seriously, why the hell should any Democrat lift a finger for anyone, when this is the thanks they get.

I hope the Teamsters enjoy telling each other N-word jokes and comparing their firearns while their pay and work conditions are destroyed by the GOP.

Here's how I responded to a Biden fundraising email today:

"Dear Mr. President,

Thank you for reaching out.

I am grateful for you beating Trump in 2020 and being a great steward of the American people over the last three and a half years.

However, given the news that you recently contracted COVID, I am asking that you step down as a candidate and allow Vice President Harris to run in order to build on the great foundation you have laid.

I wish nothing but the best for you and your family along with a quick recovery from COVID.

Gratefully Yours,"

It made me sad to send that, but the news of the President coming down with COVID was the final nail for me.

If he stays I will still vote for him, but feels like the universe is demanding he drop out in favor of someone else.
