Biden's team won't let him do interviews. He made 2 short teleprompter speeches in Missouri this weekend & both generated massive gaffes that went viral. You can't beat Trump by trying to hide to avoid the issue of #BidensCognitiveDecline. How is this not a massive red flag?

Biden’s lies & record are bad enough, but the biggest risk is his obvious cognitive decline. He said he’s running for Senate, confused wife & sister, forgot Obama’s name etc. This isn’t going away. If Dems close their eyes & keep pushing Joe, it’ll be an agonizing 8 months ahead.

Pete Buttigieg is what neoliberalism looks like. He tells people to have high hopes & low expectations. Under the folksy Heartland mayor is an ambitious resume-padder. Behind the liberal rhetoric, he stands for the status quo. How can he win if Black voters see through the hype?

Hillary strongly implies that Tulsi Gabbard is a Russian asset who will act to serve the Kremlin's interest. Also says there's no doubt Jill Stein is.

Blaming Green voters for Trump’s win is BS. You want to claim Green votes but erase Libertarians & 100M who stayed home? Assuming Green votes *belonged* to HRC exemplifies the arrogance that's driven many to run from the DNC. You can't just bully people into voting for you.

Many of us warned that Clinton was a weak candidate who wouldn't turn out the voters Dems needed to win. Neolibs didn't listen. Now even more people are warning that Biden is an even weaker candidate. Pushing him in his current state is not only cruel, it's a recipe for disaster.
