Liberals on social media seethed in reaction to Democratic lawmakers reportedly admitting behind the scenes that former President Trump isn't a "threat to democracy" as their party loudly claims. New York Times columnist Ezra Klein appeared on The Bulwark Podcast Tuesday and revealed what "top Democrats" have told him off the record as they panic over whether they should support or abandon President Biden on their ticket. "People are weighing this set of things. Like, ‘It would be quite unpleasant for me personally to come out against the president as an elected official in the Democratic Party,' and weighing what will happen if Donald Trump wins, and saying, in a revealed preference way, ‘I can live with Donald Trump winning,’" Klein said. "And I've heard people say that to me off the record, to be fair-"

Well, they’ve got a well tuned and oiled fraud machine coupled with an army of useful idiots who are acting against their own future interests.

Yes. But it won't be legitimate if Biden is still the President. Everyone will know that they've cheated to win the election. Problem's solved if Kamala is running for President instead. Then the victory will be legitimate.

I agree this is some tactic. Consider, do the democrats want to risk an open convention while the base is manic with this “save democracy” rhetoric? Remember, this convention is in Chicago and remember what happened in 1968. The 1968 convention was a contested debacle with riots and looting in the streets of Chicago. Mayor Daley gave US Airbourne troop’s permission to shoot to kill looters. There will be no stomach for that this time so Chicago will get utterly destroyed. Mine you, 100 people get shot in Chicago on your average summer weekend, now add Gaza protestors, Ant.fa and the rest of the resentful rabble.
