So PBS Frontline has this new documentary that I watched a few weeks ago, "Biden's Decision". As a leftist that voted against Trump, not FOR Biden, I figured I would learn more about his history.

But it was honestly shocking to me that the entire crux of the piece was "Get back up" and "Determination" for all the times Biden ran for president, he himself never really gave a good reason why. Biden decided he wanted to be president, and therefore he spent his whole life running for president, not because he felt he was the most qualified or best for the country. But because he wanted it. Biden wanted to be the one in charge, but historically, he never had many who actually wanted him? Dude only got to the White House when Obama balanced his ticket and then again when his best qualification was "Literally Not Trump".

So while I am glad he dropped out, and somewhat happy for Biden for achieving a life goal, I guess? Still don't see a compelling reason to be enthusiastic for the man, yet it was eye opening that no one has ever been enthusiastic for him. Biden stepping down was the right thing to do, just not the thing he wanted to do. Not really sure that is deserving of praise?

Humility isn't exactly a noble virtue, it's a standard. Not this lifetime running for the sake of running. Glad he is finally out, but that's hardly going above and beyond, it's less than the bare minimum.

Ok Joe. Now legalize it.

You can say a lot about Biden, but he's a fucking class act.

We can stop jerking this guy off now, he's no longer the candidate. I think he was a shit candidate from the beginning, despite being worlds better than Trump.

What could have been if we had Bernie...

I don't understand the title.

He would have stuck it out stubbornly had he not been pressured. No cookies for Biden.

still a genocide supporter

Never should have run in the first place
