Tim I love you, but I'm pausing with your podcasts until you get off the discussion about Biden stepping down. We need to move past it.

Bye. We'll let you know what happens.

This is just denial.

Important reporting from Ezra that overwhelmingly Democratic Party leadership does not believe Biden can win. Defeatism has set in. To my mind, this flips the script. Those advocating just moving on are accepting losing to Trump, even if they don't realize it yet.

IтАЩm sure weтАЩll read about it after the fact in a book. People bitch and moan about politicians. What about media? If you are a journalist and you know democracy is on the line, where is your courage to do whatтАЩs right and speak up. Name names. Question and call out in public. I donтАЩt want EzraтАЩs gossip, I need him to hold politicianтАЩs feet to the fire here. No offense, but I dgaf about what Tim & Ezra think or hear. Put up the proof or shut up.

I'm not suggesting moving on from whether or not Biden steps down, I'm suggesting that the Bulwark stop talking about it on every podcast for the past 2 weeks. I know how they feel. I feel the same way for the most part, but let's talk about something else.

Here we are, 9 days later, and they're still doing it. It's getting a little repetitive. It's an important issue, but there's not enough news to justify the amount of focus on it.

Sort of hard to move past it when every day, more Democratic officials/donors call for Biden to step aside.
