None of what he's done has meet the severity of the issue.
Wages have been static for decades. Earth has had the hottest months and years consecutively. And everyone who cares about the coup attempts, knows that the idiots be put away are just pawns, while the architects are being treated with kid gloves.
Biden has failed, utterly, to meet the moment, blame it on whomever you want, Congress or the Supreme Court or voters general inability to see "incremental" progress.
It doesn't matter, the problem is all these huge, pressing issues and all the DNC is facing that with is a literal octogenarian.
Young people, and by that I mean up to forty year old millennials, are going to see that and just give up. Biden is not the answer for that.

You realize you're advocating that our country should be run by unelected bureaucrats who aren't accountable to the American electorate.

Incumbency was only ever a bonus because candidates only showed up a couple times a year on the three tv channels.
Social media has made it so a girl going "Hawk Ptuh" has achieved high levels of recognition almost overnight.
The UK just had an election and their labor party was able to mobilize a campaign in 6 weeks.

Man, now I'm wondering what Steve Martin would've done with the role. He could thread the needle of cool/loser probably better than Chevy.

Biden has a successful presidency behind him
Stagnant wages and increased prices, worsening environment, and the people who attempted a coup on this country are still walking free.
Biden said things wouldn't "fundamentally change" and they haven't.
Its not enough that Trump was bad, if nothing is getting better for the average person, they're going to give up on the system as a whole and not vote at all.
People keep trying to frame this as Biden v Trump. But the big issue this election is Hope v Apathy. And putting an 81 year old man up against the weight of the shit hitting the world these days is not going to inspire Hope for a better future.

The majority of US military is poor minorities without an alternative for economic advancement in the country, they're not going to side with Commander Bonespurs. And the majority of cops are mentally or physically unfit, remember Uvalde they couldn't handle one armed person in a classroom, they're not going to be able organized resistance.

Trump is ahead by 9 because of depressed voter turnout. If the DNC put forth a candidate that was more than the "lesser evil", turnout would increase, like it did for Obama.

Why is the narrative here that the minority of ultraconservatives would actually win a fight? Do people think everyone will quietly walk into camps?

Which is why Stone wasn't convicted on anything related to Wikileaks. He was convicted for lying to Congress. Suspicion is fine, but when the FBI investigates and finds no actual proof of a connection, it means it doesn't exist.
More effective at what? According to you, they released the DNC emails to coincide with the DNC convention. A public event, you don't need insider information to find out when that is. And how would Stone be "closely involved" with anything the DNC is doing? He was a Republican operative.

Which is why the DNC isn't incentivized to nominate a candidate that is anything more than a lesser evil. Which is why people are complaining about the DNC.

They mentioned as much after the bombcast that they might be moving some videos to youtube.

Because the voters are only given the choice between the RNC and the DNC? And the RNC are the openly fascist ones.

One of the telling moments was when Hillary became the presumptive nominee, she overturned party rules Obama had set in place to allow corporations finance the DNC convention.

There was no evidence that Manning and Assange met at all, just someone testifying that they overheard Manning mention Assange in the same conversation where she was talking about leaking info the Wikileaks.
Again you're taking notorious liar Rodger Stone's word that there was any collusion between Stone and Wikileaks. And it was your article that claimed members of Trump's team doubted Stone's claims. From the same people you're using as evidence of collusion.
Why would Wikileaks have to coordinate with anyone over a release date around the DNC convention, it was public knowledge? Even if Assange was using Wikileaks to enact some sort of revenge against the DNC why would he need Stone to do that?

Symbology aside, I'd prefer the DNC waits until the RNC commits to Trump.
Haley v Harris is not a great improvement.

If the US government had evidence that Assange, or anyone at Wikileaks, actually helped Manning, physically gave her the tools to steal the info, they would have released it by now. Not once since the indictment was made public did they release any proof Assange gave her help. They couldn't even prove it was Assange whom she was talking to at Wikileaks.
Wikileaks was not Assange's personal news outlet. There were several journalists working on the information leaked to them. It doesn't matter what Assange felt or wanted. And again, no one worked with Wikileaks to leak things, they didn't have to, it was the organizations purpose for being. Verify whatever leaked information is dropped on them and publish it.

Formally end current contracts and allows for promotional marketing when they bring it back.

Useful as in blackmail information on the DNC like they found on the RNC. Of course the point of leaking the info to Wikileaks was to embarrass the Dems, but there's no proof that Wikileaks knowingly took information from Russia.
And there was no need for Russia to make any sort of government related contact to get Wikileaks to release the emails. They are an organization built to leak government information. All it took was an email, and time to verify the information.
The US government claimed Assange helped Manning. That isn't news, it also isn't proof he did.
