 “President Biden should not run again in 2024.” -  Washington Post columnist David Ignatius https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/09/12/biden-trump-election-step-aside/ 
 @e814e036 who cares what he says? 
 @e814e036 "Right now, there’s no clear alternative to Biden — no screamingly obvious replacement waiting in the wings. That might be the decider for Biden, that there’s seemingly nobody else." - Why is this so? I just don't believe that there are no younger potential candidates with the Democrats. 
 @e814e036 oh, an admirer of David Brooks and Tom Friedman decreed this? Sure, all democrats must follow 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ As Kamala Harris aptly put it: they are scared to run against a successful incumbent. 
 @e814e036 hahaha, what a joke. Who do you think should not be running for president - Joe Biden or the lifelong fraudster, rapist, and wannabe dictator?

There is no metric that you can use to even start this conversation. It doesn’t matter who heads the sane party if the other party is a serious threat to life and liberty. Talk about the correct thing.
