All of them had earlier signs than the general public about Biden's mental issues

But they didn't give a fuck until it was undeniable to the general public.

Especially Schumer tho, he didn't act until the very lose possible second after they'd already shut down the primary

We could have had Biden sorted and sidelined with plenty of time for a fair primary.

Biden should not have been running in the first place.

Biden should have taken Biden's advice.

But no he had to stay in long enough to ruin the primary and ensure that nobody who was willing to actually defeat Trump would gain the nomination. Same reason he waited four years and one RNC nomination to have his DOJ indict Trump for inciting an insurrection to overthrow the US government, among his dozens of other felony crimes. They needed to be sure that Trump would get back into office.

The earliest sign was around 2021 IIRC. A report came out that Biden was taking midday naps to power through the day and all we got was basically "the big man is tired. Leave him alone"

And he was still 20x or more the POTUS the felonious dictator rapist has been.

Fuck the remainder of those senators

They mean after Biden said he was going to tax the rich..

Is this news from last year? And what is Angus Scrimm doing up there?

I don't think it comes as much surprise that AIPAC-backed Dems were more likely to continue to blindly support Biden.

You know, the lobbying firm whose bulk of funding comes from Republican origins.

I can see the strategic play of progressives not coming out and calling for Biden to step down because they would've been seen as a scapegoat and Biden may have dug in his heels more if progressives led the charge.
