It’s not too late until the convention is over. That’s literally what it’s for. Biden can direct his pledged delegates to vote for his chosen successor, whoever that might be.
You say that but that’s just your opinion. The fact is Biden is already behind trump and has lost any momentum he might have had. I’m voting for whoever is on the Democrat ticket but we need the never Trumper and the ones that hate both to break our way. It isn’t enough for them to stay home.
Yeah like imagine if 4 years ago he pledged to be one term president, that he viewed himself as a “transition president” and as a “bridge” to the next leader “not as anything else”.
Much like Bidens pier, his bridge led to lies as well.
If he’d done that he would have been lame duck on day 1. The second he says he’s not running anymore is the complete end of his ability to have any real legislative influence.
Sorry I don’t understand what you mean, are you saying he did indicate that? When? If not, I’m following your hypothetical out. If a president announces he’s leaving (or otherwise is transitioning power to another administration) they’ve basically ceded the remainder of their administrative power.
Like most things Biden, the truth is complicated and not on his side. His camp made many allusions to being one term in 2020, and he made various comments suggesting that news reports of one term had veracity. Now in the same fashion the establishment says he won the primary as the choice of the people (while they blocked supporting anyone else, look up the results where uncommitted aka not Biden ranked higher than his “opponents”), his defenders say he never explicitly said it as a definite so it can’t be criticized, and the myriad of News Articles saying one term from 2020 shouldn’t have been trusted.
Biden is going to run. It’s July, he should have announced he wasn’t seeking a second term but he didn’t and it’s too late to swap.
Biden is going to win because Trump has gone full mask off as a fascist and the competition could be a potato.
Then we’ll be stuck with a sunsetting neoliberal and vaguely hoping he steps down at some point so his ACAB-proving VP can take over.
Then she’s going to lose 2028 because literally no one likes her and the Republic falls anyways.

It’s too late. Dropping out now practically guarantees Trump wins in November.

According to his polling, so does staying in

. . . He signaled he wouldn’t run for a 2nd term before day 1.

Multiple times before he was elected.
Those were direct quotes from him I used above.

I think you’re conflating two different things. Yes, Biden did say those things: https://www.axios.com/2024/07/03/biden-campaign-democrats-pledge-one-term, but he also never said (in the specific way it would have mattered here) that he meant to serve a single term.
