Obama and Biden may think they are honoring the office of the presidency by keeping quiet at a moment like this — if so that’s just preening vanity — they owe it to the office and to the Republic that until last month it served to speak up loudly and clearly and without relent.

Everyone in the world sees what is really happening here.
Them saying it doesn't change that Congress, specifically Republicans, are SUPPORTING ALL THIS & ENABLING TRUMP!
Them speaking up doesn't change that.
Trumps popularity tanking, might.
Those 'ideals/protocols' got thrown out the window with trump.
Democrats should answer the proposal for a trump 3rd term with a proposal for an Obama 3rd term.
Obama will be 67 in 2028.
But what do people expect them to say that will change things?
And why are they only targeting them? What about Bush and and Condi Rice and other Republicans?
Everything about our lives is about to be upended. No one will be spared. We are one connected organism, under severe threat. Speak before it’s too late…
No grace for a single GOP fuck of the last 40 years. This is the culmination of their efforts. Not the “bare minimum squad” Cheney or Kinzinger. None of them.
George Bush!
So what is it, specifically, that Obama and other past Presidents are preserving by doing and saying nothing?
They can make their voices known. We democrats need them to help us through these next years.
