Biden is dropping his bid for the presidency. Probably this is the best news possible under the circumstances. I'm glad that he wasn't
"removed" by party bosses against the primary results. No word on who
will run instead... I presume Harris, who's deeply disliked by
many/most. Hopefully this will refocus the media on Trump's own age, senility (constant slurring, forgotten names), poor health and insane authoritarian ambitions. Not that it matters for the MAGA true
believers I suppose....

YES!!!
This will become interesting...
I hope "Biden" doesn't do a mass continuation of his appalling policies
on his way out.
I want Warren. Or Michelle Obama.
Weak democrats will probably run with KAMALA... which, as already
mentioned here, means terrible/horrible in Finnish.

I stand by that. Had he stayed in those people would have prematurely
fractured the party.
"Well, there are two problems. One, people actually voted for
Biden in the primaries. Presuming party bosses have the power to
rip it away from him, it would cause a big perception problem
because it would imply the votes didn't matter. Two, Biden
controls the funds that have been donated already. The party
could have a big cash problem if he doesn't play ball."
So jdeluise do votes matter?
How come knowing out the fact votes don't matter is now "best news"?
Primaries are different, and technically the votes don't matter as
much, that's just a fact. But I would have been against Biden being
forced out against the will of the party (eg. the votes). But if a
candidate voluntarily stands down that changes the calculus a lot.
The Republicans are very weak right now in one sense. They've
basically given up their entire identity in order to canonize and
glorify Trump. There will be a tremendous power vacuum and party-wide
chaos if he also has to end his bid due to health issues. Not smart
to invest everything into someone who's senile and rotund and at such
an advanced age. Seriously, listen to Trump a speaking a few years ago
and compare to now. He appears to have aged about 20 years.
you specifically said there was nothing wrong with Biden, yet you say
all this now, also somehow health didn't matter for Biden but it does
for Trump despite surviving an assassination attempt AMAZING JUST AMAZING!

have a chance.
Or Kennedy.

So your favourite would be Horrible Harris then?
No. My favorite is "whoever can beat Trump". Harris has been "vetted" (skeletons in the closet are probably already known), has clout and name recognition, that's pretty important and that's the only reason I would consider voting for her. In reality I think Michelle Obama has the best chance, which is a sad statement on the available choices. But I've
seen no indication she wants to run.

Good day for crypto trading though. I saw a small bump last week right after the assassination attempt. There's currently a BIG bump happening right now, starting right after Biden's announcement.

the very same thing. It's probably worse because you're exposed to
the risks of back room deals and self-serving regulators.
How can it be worse than Bankman Fried...
That was bad, but only a real problem if you keep crypto on centralized exchanges. In my opinion decentralized exchanges are much better these days. They don't require you to keep your assets on them, rather you transact directly from your own wallet.
I'm investing in wide index funds, at least thus far...
And bond funds.
Yeah, I've had some good stock picks too, but mostly stick with ETFs.
That means they can't go to zero and will always bounce back, given
enough time. I don't think the same can be said about crypto.
Well, I can't see bitcoin hitting zero and staying there at least. In my
mind the biggest risk is whether the underlying cryptography will
survive threats like quantum computing in the future.
But good if you're winning. Just beware that when the US market
crashes in the future, I think crypto will crash harder.
Maybe. I only invest what I can afford to lose so I'm not too worried.
In my mind a good investor is open-minded, unemotional and always looks
for ways to diversify their holdings.

C'mon man, drop it, Dems deserve to be politically slaughtered. It was
well written on the wall for long time and everyone knew it but the
Dems party kept their heads in their a**es.
Now they are trying to fix it now, lol.
Dems will lose presidency, house and Senate.
It's a disgusting period in USA history.
Yeah, it feels as though Trump is like Fed at match point against Djoker
in the 2019 Wimbledon Final, doesn't it?

you should write story books, it amazing the stuff you come up with. All very over-dramatic and exciting, lots of people like this kind of stuff, you can write quite well too sometimes!
But remember, our systems are only as strong as the people we put in power.
