5. It's a passive-aggressive swipe at Biden, and a reinforcement of the "Lesser of Two-Evils" bullshit.

It's a passive-aggressive swipe at Biden, and a reinforcement of the "Lesser of Two-Evils" bullshit. The time for pouting and disappointment is over. We've known for quite a while now that Biden is our party's nominee. It's not this is some shocking surprise that happened out of the blue without any warning.

The adults and mature-rational voters who live in the real world have had plenty of time to come to terms with the fact that their favorite candidate dropped-out or wasn't chosen. The time for weeping is over. The time for protesting is over. The time for taking cheap-shots and swipes at our party's nominee is OVER!

It's not at all difficult for anyone to make known that they support the Democrat. It's just two clicks away.

Just go here: https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=candidate_pref ... and click to support Biden. There are no other choices. Just Biden. He's our man.



Joe/Kamala or Biden/Harris 2020!!
They're stronger together & can't be bought!!
Jump on the Biden Bandwagon & let's take back America!!


If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
