Exactly this.

The Democrats rules committee can make new rules at the Convention before any delegate votes are cast.

This is too easy.

I sincerely doubt it is even possible for Joe & his posse to take the money.

Biden hasn’t raised money for Biden. Biden’s CAMPAIGN has raised money for AN ELECTION. Any election.

I think people are grotesquely misreading those state laws. Probably they apply to the lower office primaries. There is simply no logic at ALL that states would have a deadline to put presidential candidates on the ballot that’s a month and a half BEFORE the main party conventions. Technically neither Trump nor Biden are nominated right now, they can’t be put on that ballot.

...the tone has dramatically shifted in the last 24hours — they’re rallying behind Biden after the Obama tweet.

A presidential candidate with widely questioned but unproven eligibility sits in the WH...a president later sits in the WH notwithstanding multiple instances of patent election fraud...a subservient press that continues to advance factually incorrect pertinent information to the voters.

We live in interesting times.

It is not just WI, GA, and Nevada that lock in candidate swaps. A bunch of states have a 74 day before the election limit and if you get out and do the math...Early voting, the Dems concoction to screw with democracy also constrains what you can do after the convention. For instance early voting in Illinois begins 9/26/2024 this election. MN, SD, and VA early voting begins 9/20. That leaves a window for the Dems to swap candidates but invalidating the votes of millions of primary voters might not be a good look for a party running on the srgument that they are the ones protecting democracy from the orange menace.

The easiest solution for the Democrats is not to swap Biden out or call in one of Hillary’s hitmen, say the ones who offed Seth Rich but to kill Trump which I assure you the CIA and FBI are fully prepared to do in the event he is elected. All they need to do is move up the date at the urging of Pelosi, Schumer and the rest of the gang. You can bet the actuaries of Trump’s life insurance company have upped his premiums considerably.

Agree with your comments. In my view, Biden’s destiny is essentially in the hands of Hillary, Aunt Nancy, Schumer and BHO; their ears are now glued to the ground. I don’t believe election laws or DNC rules mean anything to them.

Not quite. Lots of ‘Democratic’ mail in votes appearing in totals after polls close both times. But in my 2024 ‘plumber’ scenario some would be for the official replacement Democratic candidate, some would be for the ex-candidate who’d quit before the official onset of mail in voting. That would be hard to spin.

At some point, people need to listen and hold this statement as almost ‘gospel like’. I’m surprised she’s still around

German MEP Christine Anderson: “Take away their power. You know why they have power over you? Because you allow them to have power over you. It’s your fear. Your fear is their power...Most people comply over fear of what the government might do to them, when in fact they should be way more afraid of what the government will do if you do comply. Take away their power. Simply say no. No, I won’t do that anymore and you know how liberating that is...The governments are the bullies nowadays. Tell them: No, go screw yourself.”

As for the Democrats, knowing that Biden is, and has been, so completely incompetent and knowing that they can do what they want because he doesn’t have the slightest as to what’s going on, he’s hard to replace. Of course Harris would be the same way. But she’s even scarier because she can’t excuse her actions because of medical problems. She’s presumably healthy and dumber than dirt.

It would be wonderful if the state that have Republican trifectas would form a bloc and tell Biden and the Left that they’re not playing the game anymore. States completely ignored Pres Trump during his whole term. Republican states outnumber the Leftist states, have damn near all the food, oil and gas. Have a lot ports for shipping. And a lot of folks with guns to keep the peace, old style.

The Republican states could make life very uncomfortable for the Left. Just simply, legit and vigorous adherence to election laws, no tolerance for illegals and others gaming the system and letting the Left know that if they want something, they have to pay for it. No longer taxing everyone to the bejesus to pay others people’s bill to satisfy their wants and whims.

The Republican states could have crippled Biden, Schumer and Pelosi on day one. Sadly, far too many Republican states have filled their government structure with RINOs and Democrats in Disguise that rival the worst of US Congress.

The Left is going to do what it wants to do, and we have “no standing” to do a damn thing about it.

“No Standing”.

Our elected officials won’t do anything. The Constitution won’t do anything, it is powerless unless our country accepts we must observe it. The Media won’t do anything. The states won’t do anything. And the courts won’t do anything.

And thus, we will take one more step towards a full oligarchy full of Communists. Many think we are already there, but this is just one more step of those same people in that oligarchy saying “See? We can ignore the Constitution and the law, because none of them will do anything about it.”

I’m of the belief that WE CAN DO SOMETHING. Every election, the powers that be play chicken with a lot of us.

There are still to many that still believe in the “??? isn’t electable because he/she is too conservative”…..people have told me Jody Hice was too far Right to win in Georgia. Maybe. If so, then no one that didn’t vote for him because he was too Conservative has forfeited their right to complain or question anything.

Obviously, we need people to step up. After that, we need to stop being played by the Establiishment, which operates at every level, and run them into the ground. Never be nice to them.

If a blue collar person wins a local or state position, beating the establishment incumbent, there is absolutely no reason to be nice to that person. The incumbent tried to dig up dirt on you to ruin you. Throw it right back at them. Treat them so harshly that they have to move.

I admire your point of view, but I live in a blue state in which no matter what I do is likely to make a difference, yet I must try. I am involved in multiple ways, from serving in a town election position, joining local political committees, to standing out with signs.

But when push comes to shove, what do you suggest I (or people like me) do? Write my elected officials? Done that, they are completely going to do what they want, and don’t give a crap about what I say.

And I am not running for office beyond what I have done. I feel filthy even being associated with politics at that level.

We have hundreds of people we pay six-figure salaries to who should represent us, and with few exceptions...don’t.

Yes. I am frustrated, as you can tell.

We all are.

But for every person like you, me and the many on here that pay attention to what’s going around them, we’re outnumbered by even more who talk Conservative, small government, low tax policies, but do nothing but vote for the same clown. Don’t vote. And just spend bitch and moan.

Taxes will go up......ain’t nuthin’ I can do about it....they always go up.

They don’t care until something happens to them.

Hey qaz123...  What a terrific quote from the German European parliament lady. Bookmarked that.

But haven't the governments always been the big bullies?

I agree that it would be nice if the Republican states could break away from the Leftist states.  But next time, I would surely choose Florida, Texas, or North Carolina over Georgia where government corruption is rampant, even as a Republican state.

It's a bit interesting (now living) in Japan.  The culture has certain Amish qualities to it.  The sense of community is stronger and the great majority women wear clothes with a high sense of modesty (1950's) -- surprising when you consider they live in the same digital world as Americans.

Crime is very much under control.  The justice system is strong to discourage criminals who know that Japanese jails are strict.  When details of a serious local crime (such as murder) occur in the Kanto Plain region (greater Tokyo) where one-third of Japanese live, it's widely reported in great detail on the TV news, in part because violent crime is so rare here.

And in some cases, the government is not as strong as the consensus of We the People of Nippon.

I remember last year how the Japanese government declared the COVID crisis had ended and removed all restrictions.

And yet, peer pressure by the people themselves kept people wearing masks.  Three months after all regulation ended, I guess only l0% of the people riding on a train would take their masks off. Of course, gaijins (foreigners) such as my wife and I had the unwritten license to jettison the masks, and we did.

But it took maybe 8 months time for the vast majority of train riders and grocery store shoppers to stop wearing masks. And today I guess still 5 to 10% are wearing them as a precaution -- or use them to prevent other respiratory illness, Covid included.

However, if you work in a restaurant serving food, the businesses have ALL their customer-faced employees wearing masks even to this day.

So it's interesting indeed.
