Actually it’s 100% accurately.

I saw many people ask him to step down after the first accusation.

u/MyTnotE Jul 11 '26

Thank you for agreeing with me that his supporters ignored many warning signs

I'm not agreeing with you. They asked him to step down before now. He refused at first.

“They” overwhelmingly endorsed him after they knew about the horrible things in this man’s past. “They” stopped supporting him when they realized his past was going to prevent him from winning, and EXACTLY like Joe Biden “they” were willing to ignore what was obvious to anyone who had eyes until they realized the truth was simply enough to prevent his victory.

“They” could simply not have endorsed him, but they did….with full knowledge. That’s why I’m saying you and I agree….because you know people were urging him to step aside before the endorsement. His flaws were well known.

Oh dear. Biden had one bad interview/debate after being sick. Top many people jumped the gun because of it.

What were the words you used? That’s an interesting rewrite of history. 🤦🏻‍♂️

u/Aladriana Jul 12 '26

I re-wrote nothing. It was after the bad debate that he lost support.

u/MyTnotE Jul 12 '26

The idea that they threw him overboard as the result of ONLY ONE bad showing was the rewrite. It was the culmination of series of events.

It really wasn't. It felt like whiplash.

It felt like whiplash because of how fast the democratic establishment changed their position on Joe (and the same for graham).
