Biden right before and after the first debate was polling near where Hardis ended up polling-wise the last two weeks (he was ahead in the June Fox News poll); he only got in the hole after 3 weeks of intra-party civil war.
Yes the age thing may have crippled turnout even more but at the same time the misogyny and "woke" attacks wouldn't have landed as well either.

No, the internal polling wasn't showing anything like Harris numbers. He was losing New York, NJ, etc. we might have been left with 3 west coast states, Colorado, CT, CT and Rhode Island. We would have almost certainly lost four more Senate seats and who knows how many house seats.
What are you talking about? At his absolute nadir the worry was he'd lose MN, NH and VA. No-one ever had him losing NY or NJ let alone 45 states . .that's insanity.

That’s right. It was the “intra-party civil war.” Nothing else happened.
And Biden was trailing by an average 3 points in the national vote at the time he dropped out. Harris was running even.

... It was Biden's internal polling, widely reported on last week. He was getting destroyed. The party didn't just overthrow Biden for nothing.
It was a completely unverified claim from Jon Favreau.
