Mike Johnson ripped for 'rampant hypocrisy' after saying Dems 'are violating democratic code'
Alternet ^ | July 22, 2024 | Elizabeth Preza

President Joe Biden's reelection campaign officially ended on Sunday, July 21 when he announced that he was dropping out of the race and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president.

Harris has since picked up a lot of endorsements from fellow Democrats —including one from former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-California) — and reportedly, Biden's announcement was followed by a cash haul of over $75 million in less than 24 hours.

But some Republicans are accusing Democrats of not playing fair, including House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana).

On X, formerly Twitter, Johnson posted, "At this unprecedented juncture in American history, we must be clear about what just happened. The Democrat Party forced the Democrat nominee off the ballot, just over 100 days before the election. Having invalidated the votes of more than 14 million Americans who selected Joe Biden to be the Democrat nominee for president, the self-proclaimed 'party of democracy' has proven exactly the opposite.".....

Liberal firebrand and former MSNBC host Keith Olbermann wrote, "F--- off, you incomparably unqualified a--clown Go deal with the superannuated mentally declining lunatic atop your own anti-democracy ticket."

One thing to remember is that that the RNC and republican elitists did everything they could to stop Trump, both now and for the 2016 election.

the whole democracy stuff is total BS, it wont change anyone mind.

We just need to hit Kamala over and over and over as a California liberal. That is all that is needed to bury her in the swing states, along with the terrible economy and inflation of course.

Whew, good thing they didn’t criticize St. Netanyahu. Johnson would have thrown them in the brig.

Dear Mr Johnson, we have an opponent.

Kamala Harris AND down ballot races we are currently losing.

Let go of Joe. He isn't running. He is a sympathetic old husk now. We get no points attacking him or “their process”

You look idiotic complaining about how they got him out- when for 4 years you've screamed “he has dementia,” “Joe must go. “

Wonders whether there is time to make an impact with political criticism of Kamala Harris, what with the huge amount of money that is already pouring into the campaign to create the pro-Kamala Myth.

Early voting starts soon.

The 2024 Upgrade to Donkey Party Uber Vote Fraud could potentially slip Galactically Unqualified Kamala into office, and at the same time put DJT out to pasture like a post-WWII Winston Churchill. This has got to be their vision.

This line of attack hurts the Dems and MUST be kept up. Afterall, they have "democracy" and abortion, not much else.

Democrats have only themselves to blame.
I have no idea how a sane person would ever be interested in anything Keith Olbermann has to say.

Yep. The Dems are beside themselves with worry because Kamala is a loser who slept her way to the top, is a horrible speaker who talks in nonsensical circles and cackles uncontrollably, and is a thoroughly dislikeable person.

“By any means necessary.”

If only the RINOs believed them when they say that. How much more proof do they need?

Seems to be a regular occurrence, doesn’t it?

I disagree. It makes it look like we are afraid of Kamala.

We have been saying Slow Joe is incapable of serving another 4 years. He finally agreed and dropped out. Kamala wouldn't have even been the second choice in a normal primary cycle. Instead of thanking them for the gift of such a weak candidate, we're complaining that we can't keep the one we said we didn't want.
