James Clyburn Says Democrats Have Until August 19th to Remove and Replace Joe Biden Through an Open Convention
Conservative Treehouse ^ | July 12, 2024 | Sundance

Posted on 07/13/2024 5:33:28 AM PDT by george76

By now everyone knows the importance of James Clyburn in the 2024 election. Through his network, Clyburn controls the ballot counters in roughly 15 different urban areas. James Clyburn said earlier today the Democrats have until August 19th to replace Joe Biden through the open convention process.

It does not seem coincidental that Clyburn would make this statement in combination with a letter sent by 24 professional democrats urging, imploring, Joe Biden to release his delegates and allow an open convention to determine the 2024 Democrat nominee.

...

A group of two dozen former House Democrats has sent a letter to Joe Biden calling for him to step aside to prevent a GOP takeover of Washington. Instead, they want him to allow for an “open convention” this summer to decide the 2024 ticket.

In their letter, the 24 Democrats — which include former House members and one former senator — make clear that they do not doubt Biden’s “extraordinary record.” But they warn that if the president stays on the ballot, it would mean the party not only loses the White House, but would decimate their ranks in Congress.

Open convention.

Convenient.

That gives them an opportunity to dump TWO problems: Biden and Harris.

Clyburn is trying to maximize the vote in battleground states.

It’s perfectly legal for him to mobilize ward heelers.

According to Bill Maher, Biden will resign on August 9. This is the 50th anniversary of Nixon’s resignation.

“James Enos Clyburn (born July 21, 1940) is an American politician serving as the U.S. representative for South Carolina’s 6th congressional district. First elected in 1992, Clyburn’s congressional district includes most of the majority-black precincts in and around Columbia and Charleston, as well as most of the majority-black areas outside Beaufort and nearly all of South Carolina’s share of the Black Belt. Since Joe Cunningham’s departure in 2021, Clyburn has been the only Democrat in South Carolina’s congressional delegation.”

“Clyburn played a pivotal role in the 2020 presidential election by endorsing Joe Biden three days before the South Carolina Democratic primary. His endorsement came at a time when Biden’s campaign had suffered three disappointing finishes in the Iowa and Nevada caucuses and the New Hampshire primary. Biden’s South Carolina win three days before Super Tuesday transformed his campaign; the momentum led him to capture the Democratic nomination and later the presidency.”

He’s older than Joe and still has a sharp mind.

I’m confused.

Wasn’t Biden duly elected?

Maybe they could remove him by admitting the election was fraudulent?

OK. Is the GOP doing this? if not, why not? We too need ballot counters. Where is Lara Trump and her plan?

In a judicially disputed election, ballots could be counted in one (or more) normally locked room(s) by one (or more) Republican/Democratic co-worker team(s) under judicial supervision.

First by machine, and then selected boxes by manual counting to confirm the machine counts.

“Clyburn has already told Biden that Kamala is that candidate.”

Clyburn picked Biden over Harris in 2020.

Clyburn knows Democratic power comes first, skin color second.

He’s financially set for his remaining days.

F-Joe Biden is finished as the Democrat/Communist Party nominee. It’s now just a matter of completing the negotiations before the convention.

He thinks he’s the master of the POC vote. He’s a clown.

"Through his network, Clyburn controls the ballot counters in roughly 15 different urban areas."

Really? What does this imply?

Same state? Does he staff them?

Actually, you have that backwards.

Clyburn told Biden that he would have to pick Harris as VP for the 2020 ticket if he wanted his (Clyburn's) support.

Biden could not (and still cannot) win without the black vote (over which Clyburn has huge influence).

In terms of the top of the ticket, Clyburn didn't pick Biden over Harris. Harris was a dud at the top of the ticket and everyone knew it.

As you may remember, Kamala Harris suspended her 2020 presidential campaign on December 3, 2019. She withdrew from the race for the Democratic nomination before the primary elections began. She was struggling to gain traction in polls and fundraising compared to some of the leading candidates.

“... Clyburn controls the ballot counters in roughly 15 different urban areas.”

As Stalin wisely pointed out “It’s not who votes that counts it’s who counts the votes that counts”.

The Rats have learned and are applying that lesson well. Meanwhile the Stupid Party is, as usual, asleep at the wheel.
