Democrats Can’t Boot Biden Without ‘Denying’ The Primary Election
The Federalist ^ | 06/28/2024 | Jordan Boyd

Posted on 06/28/2024 10:44:48 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Instead of advancing ‘democracy’ by upholding primary voters’ wishes, Democrats and their allies are suddenly trying to have Biden replaced.

Democrats love to talk about democracy almost as much as they love to bring up “Russia! Russia! Russia!” The blue party’s usual talking points about preserving “America’s sacred cause” at whatever cost (literally), however, were suspiciously lacking from their commentary on the first presidential debate.

For years, Democrats and their corporate media cronies have gnashed their teeth and stomped their feet about “defending democracy” by smearing election integrity and attacking Republicans who try to protect women and children.

Democrats are so dead set on their definition of democracy that they joined establishment Republicans to waste billions of American tax dollars on an overseas war between two corrupt countries that has no oversight or end in sight. Never mind that the United States, which is technically a republic, is on the brink of destruction thanks to the leftist party.

They also put incessant pressure on former President Donald Trump to “accept the results of the election” while most of their own routinely rejected their party’s losses.

Instead of advancing “democracy” by promoting what they purport to be voters’ wishes for the future of the nation now, however, Democrat strategists, corporate media, and late-night keyboard lurkers collectively agreed by the end of Thursday night’s televised faceoff that Joe has got to go — the Biden campaign’s frightened finger-pointing be damned.

While the Americans suffering under the president’s bloody border policies, insane inflation, and political persecution would likely love nothing more than to see him evicted from the White House, there are numerous problems with Democrats and their allies suddenly giving Biden the boot.

For one, Biden is the presumptive Democrat nominee. Voters, despite telling pollsters for years that Biden was far too old for their taste, overwhelmingly agreed during primary elections that Biden was the best person to lead the Democrat ticket again.

Even the corporate media were convinced earlier this year that Biden “should be feeling good about a rematch with Donald Trump.” In fact, they worked overtime to dupe voters into believing Biden is the right man for the job.

All the indications of decline that normal Americans observe every time Biden attempts to speak, walk, or wave, the propaganda press insisted, were “cheap fakes” designed to confuse them about who should be the Democrat Party’s presidential nominee.

Republicans’ impeachment investigation, which could have led to a politically convenient removal of someone Democrats are now deeming a problematic presidential candidate, was also blacked out and smeared by the left and their media allies as an attempt to undermine the Americans who chose Biden in 2020.

To put it succinctly, the Democrat political machine has had many chances over the last four years to lean into the removal and replacement of the feeble elder in the Oval Office but refused to take them.

Democrats’ double standard on democracy and last-minute scrambling to replace their shoo-in presidential candidate should come as no shock to anyone who has observed them in the last eight years. Since 2016, leftists have leveraged their political power to deliberately disrupt presidential elections.

The 2024 cycle has proven to be no different, with more lawfare and ballot-harvesting schemes than ever before. Kicking Biden to the curb would merely be another notch in their election-meddling bedpost.

Next question by Doocy to the African lesbian spokeschick: What was the difference between the so-called cheap fakes and what we saw last night?”

Most people don’t realize the party does not pick the candidate. The voters pick the candidate. Some states only allow party members to vote on their party ticket. Some states allow cross voting, so democratic voters in those states could cross over to the Republican side and vote for a loser candidate as the Republican nominee.

The Democratic party can only pick the candidate if it is too late to have a primary and the voter-picked candidate dies. I’d recommend that Biden hire a food taster and also have someone else taking samples of his meds. He should avoid stairs while with potential replacements.

In the minds of “Democratic” Party leaders Biden is a dead man walking.

They’re in a trap because it means Kamala will be running for President now.

If I were Biden I would stay off those WH helicopters.

The Deep State could take them out in a flash and blame it on foreign or domestic terrorists.

Not. Presidential conventions can amend their rules, and allow delegates selected by a state's presidential primary to vote for a nominee other than the winner of the primary. Generally they have to vote for the primary winner only on the first ballot.

Such a rule-changing vote is permissive only - delegates can still vote for the winner of their states' primaries if they want to, but they don't have to.

IMO Biden will officially drop out of the race before the Democratic national convention, release his delegates to vote for whoever they want so such a vote-changing rule won't be necessary, and that Governor Newsom of California will be the Democratic nominee. This is my opinion. Lots of things might happen, in which case it will be popcorn-eating time.

Maybe a bunch of voters don’t want him anymore. Perhaps millions of them. Shouldn’t they have a recourse, kind of like the student loan forgiveness program. It’s not their fault, after all.

Prediction: All straightened out by the end of the news cycle.

Did you read the Obamanation’s statement about what a good man Biden is always looking out for others, and of course anyone could have a bad night, and how self-centered Trump is? Obama is working to save his 4th term in office. Biden will be the nominee.

Former President Barack Obama admitted that Joe Biden’s debate performance Thursday night was “bad” — but still urged voters to back his former veep over Donald Trump.
CNN
“But this election is still a choice between someone who has fought for ordinary folks his entire life and someone who only cares about himself,” Obama insisted.

“Between someone who tells the truth; who knows right from wrong and will give it to the American people straight — and someone who lies through his teeth for his own benefit.
