3. What happened a year ago that lead so many to join DU?

4. Biden withdrew from the race a year ago on this date

5. Something tells me a significant event occurred on July 21, 2024

A Google search turned up the following:

1) Joe Biden announced he was withdrawing from the presidential race on that date.

2) The Orange Turd campaigned with J.D. Vance for the first time on that same day and said some not-so-nice things about Biden, as one would expect.

So, yes, that would drive a lot of newcomers to this site.
