I would much prefer Warren over any of the candidates. But there is a strong expectation that he picks a woman of color, and if he doesn't then my fear is that it could backfire.
By who? Who has that strong expectation? The moderate Democrat punditocracy trying to create a consensus to box Warren out?

Most people don't care who the VP is, and among those who do, Warren is the overall preference.
Senator Tammy Duckworth would likely be the best choice for Biden's VP.

He thinks the Supreme Court is harmful and hasn't expressed a reasonable view of their role at any point on this board despite driving multiple threads on the subject.
Not necessarily, but here is an excellent article
"The Supreme Court is a danger to American democracy, whether Chief Justice Roberts sided with liberals on abortion or not"

Keep it simple. And know he isn't going to change his mind.
I will if you give me a good reason.

I really don't know, at this point, where the frick to put this post.

It's pretty damn telling when your own party turns on you in favor of a Democrat candidate. Praying this doesn't stop and creates a tidal wave that rolls right over Trump.

Is this unprecedented? I can’t recall ever really noticing a former President essentially turning on his political party because the current President is so atrocious.

If it's happened before I'm not aware of it but I never followed politics very closely like you all have. It seems to me that typically, prior presidents don't comment about a current administration. This group is coming out of the Bush administration. If there's not more to follow, I'd be surprised and that's exactly what needs to happen. Republicans need to speak out or lose any semblance of integrity they may have enjoyed.

I don't personally don't care about party affiliation and I never have. If you can't see the magnitude of Trump's corruption, slipperiness, total lack of spine, dictator ass kissing, and general f-ucked-uppedness then you got more problems than he does
