Wasn't the Bulwark started as a "bulwark" against the antidemocratic, fascist, MAGA movement and its leaders? I have not heard a single realistic strategy on how to replace Biden on the ticket. Every four years, primary leading candidates are all discounted by the phrase: "wait until they are vetted by the press and the public. But now, you want us to believe that we can insert a new candidate with less than 4 months to go and we won't have the luxury of vetting them prior to them getting the nomination, so when will they be? Election night? Loser idea. Just get over it and get back on the bus. If Biden loses, it won't be his fault, it will be the press, MSM, podcasters and the fools that listened to them. We should blame his cabinet for not removing him. We blamed DJT's cabinet for not having a spine, but we blame the guy we say can't make decisions for our country and we expect him to make decisions for himself....? Why are you not fighting the fight to save Democracy? Sounds like you're searching for +memberships and forgot the mission. Glad to hear at least one of the Bulwark hosts remained on team Biden. It's sad it's the newest one, but I will take Michael's Steele over any of the latest Bulwark dribble I've been hearing lately. You even managed to taint JVL. Very sad day for our future.

I haven't heard a single realistic strategy how Biden can win re-election after his disastrous debate performance. Where is your bus going, dude? Jonestown? C'mon man.

I guess this point is now moot but "my bus" was the only one on the road with someone behind the wheel who has actually accomplished the very thing we need to happen again. Yes he's old, and I hate he made the decision to run again but as close to the election as we are, it didn't seem realistic to change. With that said, the amount Harris has fundraised just in the first 24 hours is promising. She has grassroots support, and leader support. I'm not convinced it's possible but it's absolutely necessary to defeat DJT so just as I was wanting everyone to do with Biden, I will throw all of my support to whomever the Dems put up against DJT.

If Biden loses, it won't be his fault, and it may potentially be the fault of his Cabinet for not invoking the 25th Amendment?

It's not too late to get another nominee. If I didn't know better, I'd almost think you're on team Trump suggesting we stick with a candidate who might be eligible for the 25th Amendment. It's certainly what team Trump would like us to do.
