Dems should NOT have voted for Biden in the primary.
Post Body

I see whining all the time about having to choose between guys in their 70s or 80s. Any time there's a reddit post asking who you'd like to see as president, there's 5000 answers about how you want someone younger.

Yet you had a younger moderate (Dean Phillips) with similar political leanings as Biden running against Biden in the primary and none of you bothered to go out and vote for him, even though he was addressing what we obviously see now as true - Biden has declined cognitively, and while some didn't know how much he declined, we ALL knew he couldn't go 4 more years.

It's looking like Biden will remain the candidate and lose handily to Trump.

Democrats, who think they are so fucking smart, so educated and politically in-tune, didn't bother to get educated on Biden's primary opponents, didn't bother to look outside their bubbles to think "hey maybe Biden is too old to serve 4 more years, and has a lot of baggage that will make him difficult to re-elect", and didn't bother to back up their own bullshit when they complain all the time that they want someone younger.

So it seems like the truth is you're ignorant and/or lazy and you deserve what you're getting. Many of you will be Googling Dean Phillips for the first time, in some effort to retroactively justify not voting for him for whatever reason, when really you just didn't vote in the primary because you just didn't bother to.
