"STFU"..... [View all]

...seems to be the common response to stories about Democratic officials, candidates, pundits and voters who would like to see Biden step down as our nominee.

Let me suggest that, regardless of whether Biden stays as nominee or not, this anger isn't a great way of rebuilding Party support. If you have evidence that non-Biden Democrats want the Party to lose, please share it. Otherwise, everyone is expressing the strategy they think is best for success in November.
