She's right. It's annoying at best to have these people saying Biden is a problem, without articulating at least an idea of who should be nominated and how that would work this late in the game.
We have a convention for a reason. Biden says he's dropping out, his delegates are released to vote for a different candidate.
Someone nominates Mark Kelly for the top of the ticket, the delegates vote him into the nomination, he accepts, and Trump loses.
It's a pretty simple plan, and rests on the assumption that Biden and Harris can put country and party ahead of their pride.
