Replacing Biden Improves Dems Chances
2024-07-02
[Townhall] Consequently, the only question we should be asking regarding Biden’s removal is this: Would Biden’s removal at the top of the ticket help Donald Trump get elected President of the United States? It’s that simple, and the answer is simple as well. No, removing the weakest candidate Democrats have run since Walter Mondale does NOT help Trump get elected. In fact, replacing Biden with almost anyone would almost certainly HURT Trump’s chances, which is why so many Democrats are in panic mode to make this happen.

Before the debate started last week I tweeted this: "Should Trump have waited to debate Biden until both are formally nominated? If this is a massacre and ends in Biden being replaced, it would be one of the biggest political miscalculations in history."
Some at the Burg suggested this was part of the Obumble playbook.
Given how things have played out so far, it seems that agreeing to a debate this soon was a mistake, albeit an honest one. We shouldn’t want Biden - Trump’s best shot at winning - replaced on the ticket, and we shouldn’t help Democrats right their ship by lifting a finger to make that happen.

#1  cough...Senator Thomas Eagleton..."I back him a thousand percent". How did that work out?

Funny how projection works. Scream the other side is out to destroy 'democracy' then ignore the very democratic process to put the man's name on the ballot. They had their opportunity to allow challenges and shut them down from the start of the year.
