Biden stepping down - now what? (1 Viewer)

[zztop]

I feel like this deserves a separate topic.
What will be the plan for the DNC?
How will this all shake out?

 

[LA - L.A.]

Good info on AZ law concerning Kelly:

Yeah baby! Another reason for him to be the pick, don't lose a governorship or Congressional seat through 2026.

I think it's also a shot across the bows of a certain few donors.

Absolutely.

Harris is already making her case; both to be the nominee and also against Trump.

Just pointing out, Harris made that tweet in 2019, before a jury unanimously agreed that Trump sexually assault E. Jean Carroll and before the recent news about just how deeply involved Trump was with Epstein, the guy who had sex trafficked underage girls for decades. The list of Trump's crimes have grown longer and worse since she made that statement back in 2019.

Ah, thanks for the clarification. I’ll update the post with credit to you.

Biden is my hero. He saved Democracy once, and nobly decided that the best thing for the country was not to continue his bid. He’s been a great President and American that has truly put America first and has made America great. How ironic for MAGAsters.

 

[LA - L.A.]

It’s reports of endorsement after endorsement on Threads. I think this will choke off any momentum for a contested convention.

From your fingertips to every gods's ears.

Only problem though is Gangel is the only one reporting about Mark Kelly and Beshear. I can't find it anywhere other than that report. Someone in the same report said the same thing.

***ETA*** Found it...

I don't need any credit, especially since I only know because someone replying in that thread pointed it out.

The fact that Harris said that in 2019, makes a very strong case for her being the only consideration to replace Biden. She knew the score back then and she knows it even better now.

I don’t like Cooper in the role. It sets the party up to have another older candidate in a future presidential race. A change has been made and I’d like that to reflect a movement to younger candidates.

Too late, though.

This guy is someone I follow on Twitter for unknown reasons. He posts about men’s wear and now men should and shouldn’t dress to look stylish. Today he posted this, and I smiled.

Kelley the astronaut is my favorite.

Oh for forks sake. CNN is now reporting that Manchin is considering re-registering as a Democrat to run. Please fork off Manchin.

I don't think he'd get much support.. perhaps if he hadn't left the party and went through a primary process... maayybbe? But he won't get it like this.

Manchin has completely thrown open the trenchcoat on his character and it’s hideous.

Anyway, there’d be no viable path for him because he’s nullified any possibility of getting party backing and funding.
