To speak for myself, I'm still behind Joe, but not because I think he's fit. I am scared that he might be our best shot at winning in November. If I and others like me can be genuinely convinced an alternative can do better, we will gladly jump ship. But no sooner. EDIT: As of writing, the most recent general election polls, as aggregated on 538, show him trailing by somewhere between 0-4%. His potential replacements are polling worse. I've argued below that the margin of improvement has to be significant to be convincing, and the math isn't there yet. Switching to a worse-performing and non-incumbent candidate while risking an intraparty brawl is anti-strategy. Until we as a party are prepared to rally behind a real replacement, don't give up the ship. EDIT 2: It's July 21st. Every one of us needs to back Kamala right now. No more infighting or it's Joever.

Dear Mr. Stewart, I have long been a fan of yours both on camera and behind the scenes. There are approximately 50,000 service members who were medically retired for their actions during their time in combat zones, and then service members are forced to choose between their earned DOD retirement or their VA Disability rating. I am a combat medically retired Marine who watched you fight for many of my fellow service members for the PACT Act, and now humbly ask for your fighting strength again. There is legislation called The Major Richard Star Act that continues to gain traction in both chambers of Congress and both sides of the aisle. However, even though the bill has over 300 co-sponsors in the House and over 70 in the Senate, it is stalled out while tens of thousands of service members continue to suffer daily. I believe that someone in your position can bring light to the situation and call for action on our behalf, much like you have in the past. Thank you for everything you have done and continue to do. Your work keeps me grounded in a world that is constantly up in the air. -James G. Kratky
