    “Now that the Jury has rendered a verdict and Mr. Trump is a convicted felon, it is time for him to end his campaign for president. It goes without saying that it is below the dignity of the office and of our politics for a major party to be represented in this campaign by a convicted felon. I am confident MR. Trump will do right by his party and our country by suspending his campaign so that someone more deserving can receive the Republican party nomination. I look forward to a spirited campaign with the eventual nominee this fall.”

    • Biden, in an alternate universe where democrats have spines.

    Instead we get this one line " look at us, we’re above the fray, we’re not getting in the mud" statement, so the news just fills the vaccume with whatever bullshit trump is spouting at the moment. I guess the Biden campaign thinks convicted felon is not an issue worth campaigning on? Good call guys. Let’s see how that is working (checks polls, Biden down by 5 or more points in 11 swing states), OK cool so we’re fucked thanks Biden.

      Yeah, nothing greater than watching Democrats fumble a slam dunk. “No one is above the law?” seriously? you want to go with a lie?

      but god forbid you want a strong leader willing to take bold action. what are you, a Republican?

        I think that kind of bland statement is perfect in this situation, I really do. When the hard right do their spittake over something so perfectly neutral, it shows the normies just how far gone they really are.
