    Honestly, there has never been a successful primary against an incumbent AFAIK, but there could be a first when you consider how the general public views Biden’s Mental capability despite there being no evidence for concerns compared to previous Dinosaurs in Chief. That and his handling of Israel is really abhorring.

    One thing we have to ask ourselves, though, is if it is worth risking a rift in the party when we have to run against a theocratic patriarchal racist police state anti-democracy plutocrat.

      Successful as in getting the nomination rather than the incumbent? First one that comes to mind is Reagan getting the nomination over Ford

        Reagan lost the 1976 nomination to incumbent Ford. Reagan wasn’t president until 1981.
