Will the Democrats Replace Biden Before November?

After Biden's poor performance and a litany of "senior moments" in the first debate, some Democrats are talking up the possibility of replacing him as their Presidential candidate before November. But is this actually feasible so close to the election?

Democrats had 4 YEARS to find a better candidate.. wtf are they doing

Sometimes it is important to tell an old man that he should step down.

It's pretty comical how it's 2024 and the US has only ever had one presidential nominee (not candidate) born after the 1940s and that was Obama. The next most recent was Al Gore, who was born in 1948.

Arent they late? Biden should have said 2020 that he won't run again if Trump doesn't run. A replacement should have been picked 4 years ago.

I feel bad for biden. He should be retired

[funghi]

To be fair, Dems voted against Trump, not for Biden, so someone else could just improve the situation

[sitrilko]

"Could"? They absolutely SHOULD.

I would even go far as to say they MUST.

American Democrat here. At the conclusion of the debate I decided that I was pro Joexit.

[sodog]

How many times did Trump have the "WTF are you talking about?" look on his face.

The post debate speech with Jill Biden was probably the funniest yet also saddest thing I've seen. Wow Joe you answered all the questions like a big boy!

USA reaching their late stage version of the ussr selecting their Yuri Andropov and Konstantin Chernenko

[markmuller]

Now Americans have to choose between liar and dementia... Amazing

[osinktj]

The concern is not the age.... it's his mental ability. Plenty of people are older than him and just fine

[林晉銳]

I hope both parties can choose candidates between 50-60 next time

[albevanhanoy]

Trump isn't much younger and is already showing signs of senility as well. Neither of them belong in a presidential race.

[bigpapa]

I actually don't understand why both parties struggle with a reasonable candidate. You really wanna tell me, out of the 330million Americans, that's the best they can do?

[Kardia_of_Rhodes]

Almost like we should be able to hold a Motion of no confidence against the president or something...

[armintargaryen]

I find it ironic to think how Bernie was as old as those two last time he ran for president (even more if I recall correctly) and yet he still seemed far brighter

(Not that the US was ever going to elect a somewhat leftist president)

Also he stepped down and endorsed Biden unequivocally to stop Trump... But now Biden's ego is the obstacle in beating Trump...

[magistro]

It's really amazing how determined USA is to repeat soviet "Hearse Races"

[winjr]

We need to replace Biden and Trump. Enough with these 2 old farts.
We need someone younger that knows what is going on in the world, and how to deal with it.
