Honestly, it's disheartening to see this kind of fragmentation within the Democratic Party, especially at such a crucial time. We can't ignore the significance of unity right now; the stakes are just too high with everything we're facing as a country. While it's important to have critical discussions and ensure our candidate represents our values and can win, public infighting could seriously hurt our chances in 2024. I hope the party can rally behind Biden, acknowledging his achievements and the stability he's brought after such turbulent times. After all, our focus should be on maintaining progress and not giving room for regressive policies to take hold again.

Not surprising to see Biden's support waning; it just goes to show how out of touch the current administration is with the real needs of Americans.

Should a leader's decision to run for re-election be more influenced by public opinion or by their achievements and policy plans?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…2yrs2Y

If a president is facing decreased support within their own party, do you think stepping down for someone else to run is a show of strength or weakness?

How important do you think it is for a political party to fully support their current leader's re-election bid, and why?
