Time to speculate

Posted on 07/18/2024 11:06:35 AM PDT by DrHFrog

I'm pretty sure almost all of us here believe the days of Biden's candidacy are very short. I'm equally sure the Dems realistically have no option other than elevating Kamala Harris to be their nominee, no matter how distasteful that may seem. As this seems obvious, who would y'all speculate she (OK we know it's really Obama, Schumer, and Pelosi making these calls) will pick to board her Titanic for the cruise to November? Since they can not tap their reelection kitty unless Kamala is the one, would she tap Michelle, knowing the populace would see this as "historic" with two Black women on the ticket? Would she pick a white male like Governor Beshar to counter JD Vances Appalachian heritage and story? Certainly Newsom would be smart enough to run for such a Quixotic offer. It seems to me that figuring out who would be crazy enough to run with Kamala might be more problematic than getting rid of Biden.

I think what you said is very possible. Maybe even probable.

I get what you’re saying, but I think it would fast track to SCOTUS if that happened. I don’t think it would end well for B. O.

They don’t expect to win no matter who they pick

Don't bet the ranch on that. They have to win, at all cost. The MSM will still help them. The criminally inclined will still help them, for pay. They've imported whole prison populations of criminally inclined that will keep their mouths shut (or lose their green cards, or worse - who would know). The DemonicRats desperation to keep control will tell them they need to take more risks, and they will. They'll need more and more money to pay the henchmen who work the vote fraud machine, but they'll pull it out of our pockets somehow.

If it looks like Trump will get 100 million votes, they'll develop 101 million ballots for Biden. Or they'll work the electoral votes angle if the computers tell them to. They've invested millions of graft proceeds to put their fingers on the scales of the election, and they must retain power at all costs. They won't let it go to waste. Congress will pass bills for more graft opportunities, and the printers will place their orders for more boxes of fresh ballots knowing they'll be paid.

The bullets failed, the votes won't be there, but the ballots are all they need to win. Will they get caught this time? They got caught last time, and nothing happened. Will anything happen to them this time? They know it's a risk, but they will take the risk: it's imperative to them that they win.

“It specifically says “shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice”. In the scenario I described Obama wouldn't be elected twice for prez.”

But you also must take into account amendment 12: “no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice President of the United States”.

Excellent point about Amendment 12 being used in conjunction with Amendment 22. Maybe you're right about that.

Unless they would argue that, because Amendment 22 came after Amendment 12, Amendment 22 therefore overwrites 12.

They can't have Kamala actually become president. She was Biden's protection from being impeached & convicted for throwing the borders wide open. She was the first Democrat eliminated in the 2020 election cycle, before any primaried had even taken place. No one cares for her.

The more moving parts to an operation makes it that much harder to actually follow. Assassinating her would actually deflect from Trump's failed assassination attempt.

They could scale back on the moving parts & move Hillary into the presidential slot, and leaving Michele in as the mustache for Barack operating behind the scenes as the VP.

The democrat/deep state is going to cheat their person into the WH no matter who it is and then they’ll use that person for their very own political sock puppet, just like they have done with the Jobama.

Big Mike is done with work-a-day politics. She just wants to spend her time at WNBA games and watching women's wrestling.

Kamala POTUS
Whitmer VP

Two Women on the Dem ticket(one of colors)

against

Two WHITE MEN on the GOP

They will talk all about how THEY(the Men) took away a woman’s right to choose 24/7. It is the only thing they have to run on.

That is my bet, Curious George for VP. I don't see a thing in either Article 12 or 22 that prohibits it. Nor do I see a thing saying that heels up abdicating to the VP being prohibited. Others see it differently I know. The only hope against this is CG being too lazy to take the job. He always said he would like to do it if he could from his basement.

After CG, it is a crap shoot of finding someone to go down with the ship I hope.

If Biden wants loser Kamala do replace him, I would think he needs to announce and step down from the Presidency before the convention because it will make it harder for the convention elite to replace a black woman who is already president as their nominee. If she is just another candidate and has no Presidential status it would be less difficult in maneuvering to pass on her as nominee at the top of the ticket.

“ Hawk Tuah”
***************

Except the Hawk Tuah girl is NOTHING like Kamala. From what I’ve seen the HT girl “specializes” in humor (of the non-cackling type) and is morally pretty decent. And HT girl is definitely not the “heels-up your way up the career ladder” type of opportunist that Kamala us.

If they put Big Mike in she will win. If not Trump will win and they will have to figure out how to kill him before Jan 20th. So sadly Big Mike may save Trump’s life. I know this sounds crazy.

Except for the fact that Mike is not a woman and Kamala isn’t black.

As far as they are concerned they are. It’s all for optics anyway. But you are correct. 🤣

I am pretty sure Joe Manchin is a pariah to the Democrat party now.
