Why Democrats Can’t Cancel Joe Biden
PJ Media ^ | 10 July 2024 | Scott Pinsker

Posted on 07/12/2024 4:41:00 AM PDT by Rummyfan

Have you ever wondered why some celebrities get permanently canceled while others escape almost completely unscathed? For every Kevin Spacey (canceled!), there’s a Chris Brown (not canceled!). Why is that?

…:

If someone doesn’t want to leave and you can’t legally force them, then they’re not leaving.

(Sure, you might apologize anyway, but your apology would have a different PR purpose: Protect your secondary financial streams and provide juuust enough cover to your partners that they won’t instruct their lawyers to search aggressively for loopholes).

The Democrats cannot legally compel Joe Biden to leave. Not even if most Democrats want him to leave. Not even if the number of congressmen begging him to drop out doubles, or even triples, in size.

And the reason why is that the Democratic Party is not democratic.

… No, the Democratic Party can’t cancel Joe Biden. But here’s the good news: This November, the American people can.

I agree! Joe is awesome! Let him stay in the race!

We’re sure afraid of Joe running against us!

He beat us so much last time... right?

I mean you didn’t have to pull of the most massive vote fraud in history to get him in there, did you?

More to the point, there is a power struggle behind the scenes and the “Joe” faction is holding out for something (and it’s not Joe).

My assumption is that the Dems put the best possible deal together to try and get Joe to quit, such as protection from prosecution for him and his brothers and his son, but Bidon was too stupid to understand that was the best deal they could give him.

Now, it’s survival. He’s going to try and hang on to avoid prosecution, because they are going to prosecute him for not being willing to leave.

Not brilliant.... I could’ve written it.... but exactly correct, without distortion, which today is much better than brilliance.

“The Democrats cannot legally compel Joe Biden to leave.”

Not sure if I agree. The 2016 Supreme Court ruling favoring Hillary Rodman Clinton, as I remember it, said that a political party could do whatever it wanted regarding candidate selection, and thus negated EVERYTHING that people thought was binding in the Primary process.

So, if the Democrats want Joe off the November 2024 ballot, one way would be to change the rules...maybe impose an age limit on their candidate for President, and thus disqualify him.

Obviously, also, the Democrats could choose to Impeach Biden today, if they wanted. They would need Republican votes to pull that off, but getting Republicans to help out Democrats when they’re in a mess has never been a problem for them (after all, the first debate SHOULD have been in September, but the Republicans threw the Dems another lifeline and gave them time to replace Biden).

This is a silly point. No political party is continuously democratic. Primary voters get to decide once every four years, no mulligans allowed.

The Dems came up with superdelegates to control the rampant democracy in the Dem party that resulted in McGovern in 1972. The DNC can change the rules to fit the wishes of the leaders easily enough. If this night of the long knives continues til the convention (🤞🤞🤞🤞), expect to see the superdelegates help to rob the old fool.

I see your point and agree to it.

It’s obvious Joe is a puppet and those pulling his strings are likely that faction you mentioned holding out for something.

I suspect the two mindless ones, Joe & Harris, are easy to control and for Joe to throw in the towel opens up the rat party to a candidate that cannot be controlled so easily. In other words - loss of power, something no communist wants to deal with.

That’s my guess.

What I’ve observed about NPR is they have a select audience of diehard leftist democrats, unlike the MSM’s CNN, ABC, NBC etc that has a sprinkling of average citizens. My point is they are preaching to those in their own bubble. They are merely reinforcing what their communist listeners already believe.

I’d like to see that tax funded bubble popped like a bothersome zit and gotten rid of.

Cancel? Traitor POSOTUS should be discontinued. Innocent Americans are being imprisoned, mugged, raped and killed by enablers and invaders. You cannot put a price tag on the damage caused.

True.

They can make up rules as they go forward

We tried to warn them but they voted for JB anyway. Now they will have to suffer the consequences. They wouldn’t know the truth if it bit them in the butt.
CSpan callers are angry they are being made to face the facts.

“npr this morning was busy resurrecting biden”

Complete with a poll showing Biden leading. The Trump lead will not expand more than it has the past few weeks as many outfits have a vested interest in keeping it a tight race. There are many dials they can turn to accomplish that end.

They could also use Dominion machines to count the delegates.

The onliest democrat that can initiate the Constitutional procedure to remove Biden is Kamala Harris, by invoking the 25th amendment. As Mark Levin, the Great One, points out….Harris has 5 powers ( only) as VP under the Constitution….one of which is invoking the 25th Amendment and, with the help of at least half the Cabinet, removing a President for being unfit to perform his duties.

Also as Levin points out….she may be the stupidest VP we ever had, but she is ambitious, and willing to wait her turn rather than tear down the pillars of the temple.

And so America is burdened with a visibly incompetent president whose senile belligerence suffices to intimidate the vultures surrounding him. And the spineless GOP who seem very confident from “ the polls” that they are going to win in November so sit back and enjoy watching the democrat beast feast. Which could also come crashing down when the demoncrats pull more moves to save their power.

Game of Thrones.

I suspect that someone will whisper in Jill’s a reminder about Hunter’s upcoming trial for tax evasion. You know, point out that she and Joe and all of their family members could be subpoenaed and deposed under oath. Things could look really bad for them. However if Joe would decide that perhaps it is time to retire, well all of those nasty subpoena’s could probably go away. Wink, wink.
