He probably would have even after the debate.
The biggest shifts in voters where white men and hispanic men. The two goups with machismo issues.
So basically they lost by running a woman

In what universe? Certainly not the one where all polling data had Trump beating him in a landslide, where Biden was so unpopular that he was going to lose the Dems down-ballot races. Biden seriously thinks that the issue with Kamala Harris is that she was a black woman, instead of realizing the issue is that Kamala said she was going to be 4 more years of Joe Biden politics.
Rest in piss you dementia-addled boomer.
He's actually too old to be a boomer, just like Trump.
Nothing wrong with the rest of your post.
I actually hate the idea of using boomer as an insult to people who are just of the right age. To me, you gotta have a certain state of mind and actions to count as a shitty boomer. Just as there's some super cool old hippies out there, there's entitled 30-something Karens out there that need to hear "Ok Boomer."
Not running again in the first place, like the original plan was, would have helped too. Not this botched primary override shit. That's 3 primaries in a row the Dems have fucked with. Stop listening to the damn donors over the voters.
Actually do someone to help the people, you'd win in a land slide.
And stop sponsoring genocide
Boy that dementia's really settling in, huh?
He can also throw a football over those mountains. And he can hold his breath for 17 minutes. He once flew to the moon in a hot air balloon, and had an affair with the Queen of the Moon. He likes green eggs and ham, but never once hopped on pop. He invented the post-it note and once fed a gremlin after midnight with no consequences.
and once fed a gremlin after midnight with no consequences.
Ah now i know you're fibbing
Centrist is delusional and utterly lacking in self awareness. Learns absolutely nothing from losing every branch of government. News at 11.
Looking at the polling, Biden was on track to lose worse than Harris did. So, no, he would not have beaten Trump.
“When Trump was running again for reelection, I really thought I had the best chance of beating him,” Biden said of his decision to run in 2020. “But I also wasn’t looking to be president when I was 85 years old, 86 years old. And so I did talk about passing the baton.”
So then why the fuck didn't you let a proper primary happen grandpa!? Why didn't you step the fuck down sooner!?
(Insert goose chasing meme here)
He's legitimately delusional if he thinks that. He only won in 2020 because of a devastating worldwide pandemic that his opponent was in the middle of botching the response to, getting millions of people killed. If not for that we would already be at the end of Trump's second term.
The democratic party needed a real primary without meddling from DNC leadership.

He is ruining his legacy and needs to shut up. He fucked up many times, no need to add to the pile now.
Not after that first debate you wouldn’t have
