Yeah, but Obama didn't want to be Arkancided.
They don’t really have to do this - Newsom is already the runaway electoral math favorite to win the White House in 2024. Such dealings would just tarnish his image. Better that they just let a puppet Kamala play Queen for a short time and then have her state she is not running in 2024 for personal reasons. As the “First Female President” she can give cackling commencement speeches, sell tens of millions of books, and shove Hillary permanently off stage without doing any further damage to The Agenda.
Good. Let’s get it over with. Unpunished cheaters rule our lives. Swell.
Despite the plan being simple, MacKinnon noted, the situation was quite complicated.
"Complicated" is right. Did the details of the article about this idiotic idea include these?
1. Biden can't "replace" a sitting VP. The vice president is an elected official, not a cabinet member.
2. If a VP vacancy occurs, the replacement would have to be approved in a vote in both houses of Congress, which leads to these two added complications ...
3. If the vacancy occurs before January, a Democrat would likely be approved in the House. If it occurs after the new session of Congress, the GOP may control the House.
4. If the vacancy occurs before January, the Senate would be deadlocked at 50-50 because there would be no sitting VP to cast a tiebreaking vote.
This is the kind of idiocy I'd expect to see from "a former Pentagon and White House official Douglas MacKinnon" who worked for two presidents who have been dead for years.
So, IOW, Gavin will pardon the entire Biden family on his first day in office.

“exactly how does Biden “replace” Harris with anybody without the next election?”
Same way Nixon replaced Agnew...
Force her resignation?
“Fatal accident”?
Arkancide?
Evil people can find a way....
I think it’s more likely that Harris outlasts Biden simply by giving him an STD.
lol
ZERO chance of Harris being pushed aside.
That would be racist.
“Or Biden could replace Harris with Newsom and then resign himself, making Newsom the president before 2024 and arming him with the full force of the Oval Office.”
I’d put some money on that.
I agree. They could/will give Biden “an offer he can’t refuse”.
It worked with Gerald Ford.
LOL!!! Can you imagine the reaction among Democrats if Biden—after promising during his campaign to choose a “woman of color” as his running mate—engineers her replacement with a white guy mid-term?
Plus, this “plan” would require the cooperating of Harris, which I doubt would be forthcoming.
Not a prediction, but a point to ponder: Vice President Barrack Obama (This could only happen after Jan. 20th). Then Newsome becomes VP and the nominee in ‘24
Consider: Spiro Agnew.
been done before
see nixon/ford
Or they 25th amendment biden and Harris is instructed to appoint Newsome as her VP pick, then harris is dealt with either by an accident or assassination, or the natural citizenship issue, and voila‘ President Newsome.
Then the real insurrection and coup of the USSA is complete.
This would have to be approved by congress but there are plenty of RINO's that will approve it- just like they approve democrat appointed judges.
THEN Biden takes a trip to Ft. Marcy...
This is the ONLY way HilLIARy makes it to be the first woman pres., which she so desperately wants, because voters hate her.
Just picture her - she probably spends every single day plotting. And those 900 FBI files must be still paying dividends, because most of those same people are still in Washington.
Bypass the woman of color (who is constitutionally designated as the 2nd in line) and install the white male??
That’ll go over well with intersectional left.
The party got multiple bimbos to accuse cuomo of harassment, for actions that are nowhere near as bad as what clinton did. He was told to resign and the party installed a cold, radical leftist in his place.
They won’t have any problem concocting a reason to kick biden out of office and to replace him with the one they really want. newsome would do far more damage to this country than harris. I think they’ll just wait until 2024 and tell harris to go fly a kite, and nominate newsome with kathy hohcul of New York as VP - who’s many times worse than newsome.

The sound of breaking you heard was Trump.
