From all the media I’ve consumed it sounds like they’re putting feelers out for running Kamala instead, I think of Bidens polling doesn’t improve they may do this. (Or someone else that polls better)
I still think there is a chance he’ll drop out, but the optics of being pressured to drop out aren’t good, I think they’re worried that might hurt them also.
So if it happens it’ll be spun as Biden choosing to do so (if he continues lagging enough in the polls)
But as long as he pulls better than the alternatives they’re going to keep going with him, so… Hopefully closer to the election people at least choose to vote against the far far far worse, fashy choice in any case

I’m on some text lists. There are definitely some people putting out feelers for Kamala. Got a couple requests for surveys about it.
