Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.), who has floated a presidential primary contest against President Biden, said Sunday people want to “turn the page” on the incumbent president when it comes to 2024.
I would love a better candidate than Biden. Unfortunately I have yet to see one. They keep trying to float candidates that are further right, people that would have been solid locks for the Republican party a few decades ago. That is not the direction the party should be going.
So we’ve got RFK jR running as a Republican with a D behind his name, and Manchin and now Phillips floating primary runs against Biden from his right.
It’s so nice watching centrists demonstrate that their commitment to protecting incumbents only applies when challengers come from the left.
RFK Jr is his own thing but neither Manchin or Phillips are actually running. You can’t call people hypocrites for not doing something they think other people shouldn’t do.
but neither Manchin or Phillips are actually running.
Yet. Both are making noises about it. Since when do politicians openly consider a presidential run and then decide against it?
Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.) does not speak for me. I disagree.

Better title: “Dean Phillips Thinks He Should Be President Instead”
This guy’s mom told him he’d do a great job and now he thinks the entire country is rallying around him.
And who is this guy?
Dean Phillips is one of the esteemed leaders of the school for screwdrivers, along with a Stanley Flathead, Allen Keys and Dr. Torx.
(I really don’t know who they are either)
Turn it to whom? The Democrat bench is shallower than a plate of cereal.
To Dean Phillips, of course. Clearly Biden should step aside for a little-known, accomplishment-free representative from Minneapolis’ suburbs who even managed to under-performed Biden in his own district in 2020.
Biden is so old though. I know he is running and incumbency bias and all that but it makes me really want ranked choice voting so he could be a safe second choice instead of my only choice.
My main reason for support of him is I like what he has done and what is currently in the works that I want completed. incumbency bias is not even part of it for me. Its more I would like to stick to a good thing at this point rather than take a chance that is more than likely to be much worse.
okay someone leak this guys funding. the money trail doesnt lie and i guarantee there has gotta be some nefarious funding funding sources asking this guy to split the vote.

I’d love to see conservatives like Biden make like a tree and get the f out of here.
