The idea that that the process of jettisoning Biden & choosing someone else will go well -- will be allowed to go well -- is a deeply deranged fantasy. [ David Roberts ] (threadreaderapp.com)

I feel like this was written by someone who didn't watch the debate. No one's expecting a change in ticket to go well - the argument is over whether or not it's necessary. This isn't a "skeletons in the closet" sort of situation - there's no amount of damage control that can fix this if it's real. The media always frenzies when they smell blood in the water, and campaigns respond by stopping the bleeding or giving them something bigger to go after. Trump is wisely keeping quiet, and Biden so far seems unable to make this go away.
