    I expected that we would have heard from Biden yesterday. Today?
    I think I read he would speak later in the week.
    He still has “Covid”. He doesn’t speak until Pelosi gives the OK

    He should resign. Tell the Dems to F off! Gave 50 years of his life to serving the country and got thrown out with the weekend leftovers. All over a couple polls that said he couldn’t win. Won a primary and over 80+ million (most ever) voted for him in 2020.

    Now he’s a 6 month Lame Duck.

    Do you think Biden should step down completely and have Harris sworn in as President?

    Not sure how that would affect Vice President Harris' ability to be re-elected...
    I think he should resign. Obviously he’s not up to the job. He was the best name out there to beat Trump in 2020. He was the best name to beat Trump in 2024. The debate performance caused the panic.

    How can he do his job? Now he’s embarrassed. He’s no hero, he was strong armed out. Everyone is laughing at him. Wouldn’t Kamala look better to voters if she assumed role of President for 3.5 months?

    I don't think embarrassment has anything to do with it

    This may come as a shock to some people, but Biden strikes me as a life-long civil servant who is willing to put aside ego to do what's right for the country

    Everyone is not laughing at him, I'm certainly not.  Biden's got more honor and integrity in his left pinky than the whole tRump family combined.

    Looks like the Democrats are rallying around Kamala. Not my first pick but a huge improvement over Biden.

    For the first time in months I believe it's possible they can pull this out.

    Trump world is in a bit of a panic. 

    This Is Exactly What the Trump Team Feared

    Now Harris ran the country when they said it was Obama?  Which is it?  The republicans are complete and total fools and liars.  They’re so wound up now and scrambling, scared, and giving us the most amusement yet.  I find this to be some of the funniest stuff the country has ever seen!  I can’t wait till the big baby loses to a woman.  

    The Dems/media hid and covered up Biden for 3.5 years and were willing to do that for 4 more years until he shit the bed in the debate. Then formed a coup led by Pelosi and the Hollywood elite to strong arm him out as nominee. Going against the will of 15 million primary voters and democracy.

    What a noble party!
    There you go, using coup again like it applies in this situation. 
    It's a hopeless situation...

    A coup can be an uprising or behind the scenes act.  I'll allow it.

    His press secretary told us daily on his acuity and how he was sharp as a tack. No one acknowledged anything until he bombed the debate.

    How incompetent is Kamala to be complicit in hiding it. His cabinet? They went along with it because he was easily controlled. Basically a popular puppet.
    What about all those who stood quietly by and let trump tell us to drink Clorox?  Not one administrator, not one medical expert stepped up to stop him.  You’re talking about Biden’s press secretary as if she’s the only employee of the WH that ever lied on behalf of the Oval Office.  You can’t keep throwing boomerangs because they come back at you.  Stop and think about what you’re posting.  Try to come up with something that no other administration lied about except Biden’s.

    I don’t ever recall Brandon drawing a new path of a hurricane on a map with a sharpie as his weather and disaster response officials looked on in horror on live television. Hmmmmm, who would have done such a thing?
    Ended up the classic example of trumps stupidity and all those around him.  I don’t remember who posted the crayons scribbled all over the map but it should be put in the history books as an example of his narcism.

    So the Constitution validates coup attempts via the 25th Amendment?

    Are you trying to be witty?  Has Kamala become president and I missed it? That is what the 25th amendment is.  Making the VP the P no?

    No surprise.  AMT has been reaching a real low in terms of toxicity lately.  
    It would help if this place had a better ignore feature.  There are people here I just don't need to waste my time with.  They have a right to post within what I find too-loose guidelines, of course.  But unlike other forums, this one's ignore feature still leaves the ignored person visible, especially when someone quotes them.  It makes sifting through this minefield more trouble than it's worth lately.  (None of this is meant to disparage KAT or SEA.  I respect them both, do not envy their job!)

    End of rant, time for more coffee!

    Apparently Pelosi gave Biden 3 weeks to do things the easy way or she was prepared to remove Biden the hard way. 3 weeks was up yesterday. He chose the easy way. (Guessing Hunter Biden’s court cases played a big role)

    Biden didn’t think Kamala was qualified to be President. But he was forced to drop out and endorse Kamala.

    I expected that we would have heard from Biden yesterday. Today?
    I think I read he would speak later in the week.
    He still has “Covid”. He doesn’t speak until Pelosi gives the OK

    He should resign. Tell the Dems to F off! Gave 50 years of his life to serving the country and got thrown out with the weekend leftovers. All over a couple polls that said he couldn’t win. Won a primary and over 80+ million (most ever) voted for him in 2020.

    Now he’s a 6 month Lame Duck.

    Do you think Biden should step down completely and have Harris sworn in as President?

    Not sure how that would affect Vice President Harris' ability to be re-elected...
    I think he should resign. Obviously he’s not up to the job. He was the best name out there to beat Trump in 2020. He was the best name to beat Trump in 2024. The debate performance caused the panic.

    How can he do his job? Now he’s embarrassed. He’s no hero, he was strong armed out. Everyone is laughing at him. Wouldn’t Kamala look better to voters if she assumed role of President for 3.5 months?

    I don't think embarrassment has anything to do with it

    This may come as a shock to some people, but Biden strikes me as a life-long civil servant who is willing to put aside ego to do what's right for the country

    Everyone is not laughing at him, I'm certainly not.  Biden's got more honor and integrity in his left pinky than the whole tRump family combined. 
    Apparently Pelosi gave Biden 3 weeks to do things the easy way or she was prepared to remove Biden the hard way. 3 weeks was up yesterday. He chose the easy way. (Guessing Hunter Biden’s court cases played a big role)

    Biden didn’t think Kamala was qualified to be President. But he was forced to drop out and endorse Kamala. 
    LOL you don't have any fucking idea. What bullshit source are you using for this garbage?
    https://www.telegraph.co.uk/us/politics/2024/07/22/inside-the-24-hours-in-which-joe-biden-changed-his-mind/

    Biden has stated repeatedly that he was a “transitional” candidate/President. He decided to run again because there was no one else to finish what he had started at this time. 
    Thank you for at least having a source.
    So you’re wrong? Cool (name-calling removed by admin.)

    To be determined...saying that Pelosi was "prepared to remove Biden the hard way" doesn't seem like anything based in reality.

    Oh and who got the Kamala thread locked up?  There was nothing flagable in that!
    There was tons of slander, sexism and misogyny going on in there by a few posters. It was despicable.
    I went back and read it and didn't see the misogyny part sans the one comment that asked about chromosomes?
    Damn dude...work on your reading comprehension

    You and I must have different interpretations of what that looks like then. I thought it was pretty glaring.
    Went back again.  First page.  Got it.  My bad...

    How exactly are people saying that would happen?

    Seems to be a timely article for some to read.

    https://wapo.st/3Skyrm1

    Excerpt below:

    The idea that the Democratic Party underwent a “coup” has been a popular one over the past 24 hours. After a senior Trump campaign official floated the descriptor, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) offered it directly in a post on social media.
    “Joe Biden succumbed to a coup by Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama, and Hollywood donors, ignoring millions of Democratic primary votes,” he wrote. “Donald Trump took a bullet for democracy.”

    At the outset, we should make explicit that these are not good-faith arguments. Cotton does not deserve the benefit of the doubt that he is concerned about the votes of Democratic primary voters. The play is, instead, to try to erode one of the most significant arguments against Trump’s candidacy: that he did try to subvert democracy and that, returned to the White House, he would try to do so further. When your candidate is appearing at campaign rallies and praising Chinese autocrat Xi Jinping and his “iron fist” control over his population, it’s useful to have a way to suggest that your opponents are just as bad.


    It's a hopeless situation...

    It was more of he didn’t think Kamala could beat Trump as well. She was put on the ticket because of her gender and race in 2020.
