I don’t disagree with you. Right now, every option seems bad. Biden has my vote no if he decides to stay in the race. I’d vote for a head of lettuce before Trump. And I’m not staying home, although I do vote by mail….:)

My fear is Biden doesn’t instill confidence, nor does he have the ability to galvanize the electorate. We were losing before last Thursday, and now we’re in a deeper hole. Is it possible Biden can squeeze out a victory. Yes! Is it probable as of today? No!

He’s not being pushed out the door right now, but he is on notice. Let’s see how he does in the next week or so. Although, I just think more people will stay home than go to the polls for Biden, and if that’s the case (TBD), then the down ballot candidates will also be screwed.

If we lose the presidency, we need to either keep the senate, or regain the house. Sadly, if Trump wins and republicans retake the senate, then we’re stuck with a fascist court for the next forty years. Alito, Roberts and Thomas will definitely retire by the midterms, and our democracy is screwed.

Yep no good choices.

I think the senate is gone no matter how well Biden does. House is probably going dem but who knows.
