In Biden's defense...it's not paranoia if, as it seems was the case, they're really out to get you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone (I honestly doubt this is Biden) is distributing executive functions as granted by Congress to Cabinet Secretaries, creating what's effectively an executive council. Unconstitutional as shit, and probably illegal otherwise. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, she beat nobody but she did it fair and square. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ann Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 Think about this: Trump almost gets assassinated. Days later, Biden has a medical emergency in Vegas requiring "self isolation" at home. Last public appearance reported to be July 17, when deboarding a plane in Delaware. In the time since: Trump shows up at the RNC, accepts the GOP nomination. Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries ramp up pressure campaign to push Biden out. Leaks abound. WaPo reports Obama not happy with Biden's election chances. Pelosi starts operation: "Get Joe Out, the Hard Way." Biden aides Ricchetti, Donilon execute plan to push him out. Hunter, Jill reportedly have a screaming fest. A resignation letter with a suspect, digital signature with no official letterhead is issued on X. White House staff is blindsided. Chief of Staff informs Cabinet, takes over comms. Endorsements begin: Hillary. Bill. Newsom. Finally, Obama speaks out: "Joe Biden has been one of America's most consequential presidents..." Kamala shows up to take over. Family members Frank and Valerie Biden say that 'health was a factor.' FEC filings changed. Donations transferred over to her campaign. Kamala somehow raises $81 million in 24 hours. $81 MILLION. Kamala reportedly gets the delegates to be the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee. Joe Biden hasn't been seen in public *the whole time.* How is this not a COUP? 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RochesterRob Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 As said in another thread even when the President has health issues the media is right at his side to act as well wishers if nothing else. Biden in the flesh has not been seen for days now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it just a bunch of right-wing extreme MAGA misogynistic white supremacists making noise about a black woman running for president?

It'll be a coup when they force his resignation from the presidency without invoking the 25th Amendment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be a coup when they force his resignation from the presidency without invoking the 25th Amendment. Why would they force him to resign? He apparently has already delegated most of his responsibilities to the cabinet level. Interestingly, he didn't apparently delegate responsibilities to his VP. (Of course, had he done that, it might've forced the 25th.) Realize that typically running as an incumbent is a benefit in a presidential election, but would becoming an incumbent at this moment actually be a benefit for Harris? Not sure it would be, because she'd be expected to speak in public if she were the president, and can't believe they want her speaking in public because she sure does have a penchant for sticking that stiletto heeled open toed footwear into her piehole.

Remember, before Biden dropped out large donors said they were going to hold 90 million they had promised until Biden was replaced. So technically, Harris already underperformed not even getting that full 90 back 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
