6. Sherrod agrees with Biden's policies on all of these issues but calls for him to step down.

Does he honestly think Democrats can win the House and Senate when they cave to campaign donors so easily? Do they honestly think President Trump will abide by any legislation they pass should Democrats by some stroke of luck after this BS take both houses of Congress? What if donors don't follow through on their promises of campaign funding and these idiots are being played?
