why isn't anyone calling for Trump to drop out.
(lemmy.world)
Because it's the 2024 "but her emails"
Those are virtues to his voting base, if he can get away without accountability for all that, think of how much he can fuck over the people he claims to not like (ignore that your face is just as edible to the Chester Cheato)
It'd be wasted breath, really. Trump will never step down, because he's trying to remain out of prison. If he loses, then there goes any chance he had at pardoning himself for his numerous crimes. So he's not only the far and away favorite Republican candidate, but he's also highly motivated to stay in the race for personal reasons. No appeal to his sense of patriotism will work to get him to step down because he has no patriotism. He's in it for himself and himself only.
Biden, on the other hand, is just the default Democrat guy because he's the incumbent, and the party figured that'd be enough to win, and so haven't been trying very hard. And that has everybody terrified, because if he loses, then we get another 4 years of Trump, and probably never get to vote again. Basically, people are calling for Biden to step down because the stakes are way too high to fuck around.
Because nobody expected him to do anything but lie through his teeth and shit his pants.
Check and check.
Mainly cuz no one cares this is all internet shit flinging. No one talking about anything will do anything besides smell their own fart.
Also people are more concerned with making sure they have enough to eat and can pay rent for the month.
It's your privilege to spend all your free time reading about politics, make sure to check it.
Because not a single Republican has been held accountable for their actions since Nixon. Prove me wrong.
Because Trump is very deeply popular with a huge voter block. Going against him means he'll just point those people at you and say "this guy's bad, also probably a pedophile or some shit idk" and then your career is over.
Sycophants gonna sycophant.
Because you keep making salacious claims that can't be properly sourced instead of focusing on provable arguments.
