Weird, because the push to replace Biden seems awfully like conservative propaganda to discourage people from voting.

If you’re paying attention to polling, no. He hasn’t really been winning the polls this entire time and the debate was his last hope of turning it around. I’m not saying there’s no chance, but they’re cutting it way too close on what should be an easy election. Should’ve replaced him at the beginning of the year, better late than never
It's really not though. It's just a nightmare. And of course in the modern system where you fight a campaign at every level before, during, and after the voting, the GOP would try to make this hard.
Fascism is internally inconsistent by definition. It's all just to cause discord and confusion.
"Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past."

TIL 32% of Democrats are pushing conservative propaganda to discourage people from voting Democrat.
The "everyone who disagrees with me is a bad actor" conspiracy theories keep getting less and less plausible.
"The two-day poll found that both Trump, 78, and Biden, 81, maintain the support of 40% of registered voters, suggesting that Biden has not lost ground since the debate."
From the survey you linked.
And? Does that contradict what I said in some way?
No. We just reject the losing DNC strategies that pushed for Hilary so hard and got trump elected.
Does seem to be a lot of super rich people calling to replace the guy who wants higher taxes on the wealthy.
Til democratic governors, and congress people are now conservative propaganda
We're running a mentally disabled, almost dead, sundowner. Don't blame the players when he loses, blame the game. The DNC has played itself hard with a sure loser.
There are multiple groups. Their only goal is to sew chaos.
conservative propaganda to discourage people from voting
Things centrists say about anything to their left and only their left.
Shit, so do democrats apparently.
Democrats are right wingers
At this point the only thing that'll matter is who is his VP.
Kamala?
This should give pause to the dumbfucks who can’t acknowledge that Biden is in the shitter.
Should. Won't. They're in their element here: making up excuses for not changing anything.
And you're in yours: discouraging votes so that Trump wins.
Have that guy tagged as "fascist troll" for a reason.
Yep I have a similar tag myself. It's how I track people that spread bad ideas.
I summoned one.
If I cared that you would use that flimsy bullshit story I wouldn't have called you on your incessant anti-Biden obsession
Was that a coherent thought before you typed it?
Nah because if you acknowledge what I said, maybe you'd have to address the thousands of messages you've written with the obvious goal of re-electing Trump. Easier to just pretend any opponent has a mental deficiency or something

Criticism of Biden isn't campaigning for Trump, no matter how many times you pretend it is. If Biden doesn't step down, he will lose. And you will blame everyone who tried to warn you.
If he does step down, the only thing we could be sure of is that there is a new risk introduced. The certainty you have about this is also suspicious on top of the months of anti Biden messaging I've seen from you
You think everything to your left is suspicious.
That is the cop-out you usually go with. Irrespective of its falseness
I've seen you make the same wild accusation plenty of times to other users.
Don't love Biden? Don't love genocide? Only possible explanation is that you're a Trumpist! Now you're the enemy and I get to treat you like shit!
Which by no coincidence whatsoever is how you want to treat those to your left and only your left.
You probably couldn't be honest if you tried
I've never seen you treat anyone to Netanyahu's left with respect.
