co-sign but i will add: i don't know the best path but i do know the worst path, and that's replacing him with anyone other than kamala, via any process whatsoever.
I have no idea the best path re Biden but I do know a solid week straight of “Biden Old” and “Rich Dems Worried” above-the-fold stories are *obscene* in the face of SCOTUS using the Constitution to wipe their asses purely in the service of reinstating a felon rapist as president. Crazy-making shit.
I know the best path: Make Kamala the first woman President of the United States. Now. Joe can do that with the best speech of his career and then ride into the sunset. Make a big show of it. Pomp and circumstance. Then Kamala picks Whitmer as VP and they run as incumbents.
No. A new VP has to go through Senate & Mike Fucking Johnson’s House. They’d use that opportunity to cause a real constitutional crisis. Biden resignation is nightmare scenario, not an interesting option.
And she’d become immediately responsible for anything that went wrong, from Ukraine to Israel to the random disasters any potus must deal with.
Joe & his admin still doing it all is only way she cld get a new campaign off the ground.
She's been a Vice President for nearly FOUR YEARS. Sure, the presidency is a big time job, but we have an 81-year-old man doing it, and he wants to go to bed by 8.
