    So, holding people to actual standards is a bad thing because Republicans are a lost cause? Is that what you’re really saying?

      No, I think he’s arguing for the exact opposite. Just because Republicans are terrible doesn’t mean Democrats are immune to criticism (not that you’d know it from this thread, apparently saying Biden is too old to hold office is the worst thing ever).

        I’m glad he’s not running anymore. We stand a chance now. Still wish he would stop enabling genocide. If we live long enough in spite of the pitifully inadequate response to the climate crisis, centrists are gonna look like moral cowards in the documentaries. Yet again.
