The problem with the Replacement option is the Dems really don’t have any star power candidate.

Newsome won’t win, and they know that too.. especially if tossed in at the last minute.

There really have no one that they can replace Biden with who, especially in an abbreviated campaign can pull it off... they have no superstar, none.

RFK JR would have easily won the presidency as a Democrat, and I say that as a Trump supporter, but he sees through and attacks the deep state so they don’t want him.

The dems may try to replace Biden, and I’ve believe that’s been an option all along as they didn’t change their bylaws in 2022 to allow the replacement of the candidate at will after they accept the nomination should they resign or quit or be unable to run for any reason “just because” they were setting up the option to pull Biden if needed... Run him to avoid a primary but just replace him after he accepts the nomination.

Problem is that gives whoever they replace him with just 8-9 weeks to pull off a win, and you need an absolute superstar for that, and the Dems just don’t have it.

I am not saying the Dems won’t try it, just saying I don’t see how they get a win if they do.

Things keep trending the way they are, this fall isn’t going to be about whether or Trump wins.. its going to be about Dems trying to salvage the down ballot. If things stay the way they are going, no one being remotely honest is even going to present the idea Biden can win, they are going to be all about how many seats are the Dems going to lose in the house and Senate.

We shall see.

Personally I think the deck is stacked so far in Biden’s favor with these early debates, that they will just drug him up, enough to where he gets through them without a massive breakdown... he won’t perform well, but the notion he’s going to have a sundowner moment on camera is not likely, and they will call it “good enough” and a win and just keep plowing ahead.

We’ll see how it all plays out.
