Democratic leaders should have rallied around our president after the debate, which Joe won on substance.
They also should have taken every media opportunity to insist that Trump's bold-faced easily disprovable LIES receive equal coverage.
This should have been the strategy, whole giving President Biden time to recover by demonstrating his capabilities.
If, after giving this time to work, an honest and thorough assessment indicated a different candidate would be much more likely to win the elrction, then our Democratic leaders should explore that possibility only if there is a realistic plan for how that process would work and succeed.
Instead, some Democrats allowed panic to dictate their actions. Instead, early calls for Joe to step down reinforced the media narrative and amplified the negative impact of the debate.
This was nothing short of POLITICAL MALPRACTICE.
