    All of them had earlier signs than the general public about Biden’s mental issues

    But they didn’t give a fuck until it was undeniable to the general public.

    Especially Schumer tho, he didn’t act until the very lose possible second after they’d already shut down the primary

    We could have had Biden sorted and sidelined with plenty of time for a fair primary.

    I don’t think it comes as much surprise that AIPAC-backed Dems were more likely to continue to blindly support Biden.

    You know, the lobbying firm whose bulk of funding comes from Republican origins.

    I can see the strategic play of progressives not coming out and calling for Biden to step down because they would’ve been seen as a scapegoat and Biden may have dug in his heels more if progressives led the charge.
