As i said elsewhere, a massive heart attack for creepy Joe would our best bet.

That leaves Kamala as President, and the "presumptive" nominee...

KAMALA would not be the automatic candidate, convention would be open at that point.

Democrats do not own Joe Biden. Once sworn in, he belongs to the whole nation, not just the MadDogocrats. For good or bad,it’s like being married. He is ours. And my voice in it is just as good as any of theirs.

WHY would they (the powers that be) want to get rid of Joe??

He is harmless to them; he does what they tell him to do and he doesn’t know enough of what’s going on when things get screwed up and he has to take the blame for them.

THEY run things, not him. They WANT an empty shell, Not someone who actually believes they are PRESIDENT and in command and wants to make decisions and policy… oh no! - can’t have that!..

“convention would be open at that point.”

In my lifetime, there has never been a debate before the convention. There was a reason this changed this year. They will choose someone else at the convention. The courts will allow ballots to be changed.

As long as we have Governors like Mike DeWine the Dimocrats can do what ever they want whenever it’s convenient.

Exactly, so why did they send this helpless old fool into the lions den? They KNEW his actual condition. They KNEW he couldn’t take on Trump. Hard to believe they don’t have some cunning plan in play here.

“Looks like Brandon is scheduled for suicide.”

won’ty work ... that still leaves kamala as Prez AND the presumptive candidate for 2024, because the Dems would have an impossible time convincing their female and people-of-color base they’d be better off with a white-bread dude like Newsome than the current black female Prez ...

#3 works if Biden releases his delegates. It won’t work if he or his handlers actually pick a successor. That way it can be nade to look like Harris has a chance. Thing to remember is delegates aren’t just Dem pols. They are Biden loyalists whom the campaign approved of before they were on the ballot.

Then Kamala is POTUS, the one people voted for VP in the primaries.

Now replace her with a white man (Newsom) or woman (Whitmer).

That goes against their whole narrative.

(RuPaul may be a fit though)

Is he? Would they really be happy with Heels Up Harris as president? How could they then deny her the nomination? They certainly couldn’t do it in favor of a White man like Gavin Newsome.

Remember, they have to appeal to Democrat voters. They’re all about identity politics.

It’s easy, but no one is talking about it.

Have Joe resign. Soon. Before the convention. Kamala becomes President with the understanding she won’t run—she will be too focused on “the job.” They get their first woman, first black woman President.

She announces right away that she won’t be running and that will throw it open at the convention.

Then whomever can get their act together quickly can run at the convention.

If they do this soon, they can try to avoid a complete disaster in both houses and the White House.

The won’t do this soon because there are too many egos involved. But they need to get this done literally next week. Remember, they need to have a candidate by August 6th to make it on the Ohio ballot.

So, if Joe is on the ballot and he “wins” the state, then the electors would likely be freed to vote for whomever they want. I see that as less of a hurdle than trying to run a brain dead guy for President.

One rumor was Kamala was “furious” when she heard last night that the top dogs were setting her aside as they looked for Joe’s replacement.

She could enrage black voters if it happens.

If Biden resigned, she would be the sitting President.

If he declined the coming nomination and she got passed over for the new “star” at the convention then she might get revenge by telling the secrets she knows. Plenty of them.

Harris gif:

“So they said we’re here to take the Israeli and American hostages out and the Hamas guy says they’re already dead. The joke’s on you guys.”

Laughs for three minutes straight.

Why?

She's not black.
