Biden Bowing Out

Let's be real folks. I heard one of the MAGA folks going on about poor Biden. Biden didn't bow out because he's old or because he knew he couldn't do it anymore. No, no, no! He bowed out because it was the right thing to do. He did it because there were some concerns among Democrats and his dwindling re-election chances. He knew this country needs a stronger Democrat in the campaign for the 47th President of the United States. He said in a letter he wrote "I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term.” That must have been extremely hard for a man to do. And, should we forget, Biden has his run ins with his critics and press. Many seem to think that Trump is the only one who gets adverse stories in the press. He isn't. Never has been. They all get it. Biden has been in politics for over half his life. He is 81 years old. And I think that Biden is keeping a low profile right now to give Harris the full screen. It's called grace and consideration for another person. Biden is a good man. He is not the type of man to grab the limelight for himself like some others I could mention.

It is in the American's people best interest for Biden to back away and never be around any decision making ever again. And if you disagree with that, I highly suggest you research it a little more. See what Trump has done for the actual American People, and what Biden has ruined and done to the American people.

@BarBaraPrz No I am a small business owner, and a mother. And someone who thinks about it logically. Seriously, do you not realize what Biden has done to the country? Do you have endless amounts of money to keep payinig high prices for crap. Do you agree with him cutting off the pipeline? Ohkay. But I'm the crazy one? I dont care who votes for you, if you want to follow Kamala and a dictatorship- then go for it. But I know who gives a heck about the country and American People, and I assure you it isn't Biden, or Kamala.

So what was his reason for waiting until after the primaries? Now the demos are stuck with Harris.

He is one admirable dude. His presidency may go down as one of the best in American history.
