    the dangerous Trump argument is absolutely not one to be downplayed

    Which is why it’s so bad Biden insists on staying in the race.

    If he thought beating trump was the most important thing, he’d have announced years ago that he wouldn’t run again.

    But he’ll never stand down. Because he wants a second term more than stopping trump from having a second.

    And people realizing Biden is risking that for his own ego, makes him even less likely to stop trump.

    Historically “vote for me or else” doesn’t work well

    We know what works to motivate Dem voters: young, charismatic, and progressive sounding candidates.

    We can’t get that to stop trump, because 82 year old Biden won’t retire.
