"While it has been my intention to seek reelection, 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 my term," Mr. Biden posted in a statement on social media.

I 100% agree. In 2016, she got dead last in my preference for Democrat candidates, and that was completely validated when Tulsi Gabbard completely wrecked her. In the last 4 years, she did absolutely nothing to gain my confidence in her. I don't believe she's a good person, a good politician, or even a good candidate.

But somehow she's better than Trump. Maybe. I'm actually not sure anymore, because police and prison reform are really high on my list of priorities.

I'm definitely not voting for Trump, that's a given, but I'm most likely not voting for Harris. If I lived in a swing state, maybe I'd reconsider, but I don't so I'm not throwing my vote away to a candidate I strongly dislike. I hope Trump loses, but I don't necessarily hope Harris wins. Screw them both, Trump should be locked up and Harris should stay home.
