allane Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 I am not American, so maybe I should not be commenting. For whatever it is worth, I agree. Some person(s) in the Democratic party need to help or persuade Biden to find a graceful exit. In terms of a possible replacement, no one seems to be suggesting Kamala Harris as a possible replacement. This would be the normal alternative, and the fact that she is almost never mentioned is a huge slap in the face to her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That lying, warmongering, mealy-mouthed, so-called diplomat? I don't think so. Kamala the Laughing Hyena, I don't think so. People talk about Newsom, but far from making California Great Again he is killing it off. Many more people are leaving the state than coming to it. Soon, like Illinois, this exodus will start hitting the local tax base. Who else? Just a bunch of woke losers that's all. They could exhume Hillary Hillary and give her another losing run out. Trump's the man I hope, America has no chance without Trump. Biden has driven it into the ground. 1 1 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post thaicurious Posted January 17 Popular Post Share Posted January 17 (edited) https://www.whitehouse.gov/therecord/ "THE BIDEN-HARRISRECORD When President Biden and Vice President Harris took office, our country faced unprecedented crises - a raging pandemic, economic crisis, climate crisis, and racial injustice. The President and Vice President ran for office on the promise to move quickly to tackle these crises head-on and deliver results for working families.

jas007 Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Biden may be the president, but not really. Clearly, others are now running the country. As for who could replace him on the ticket?

To say he isn't is crazy maga propaganda. Nobody is going to replace him on the ticket. No Hillary is out of the question even if she was interested.

OneMoreFarang Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 I think the main issue is which politician from the DEMs would anybody in the MAGA crowd vote for? And that is a serious problem. I have no insider knowledge from those MAGAs but I find it hard to believe that they would vote for any DEM. So, yes, Biden is not good, but who would convince any of those 70,000,000 Trumpers to vote DEMs? I know the numbers look bad. But I would love to see a third-party candidate win. Then maybe, maybe the two parties would start to realize that it's time for them to listen to the people and not only to their rich donors - or should I call them investors? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jas007 Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 I wouldn’t vote for a Democrat at this point, mainly because they aren’t real Democrats any more. They lost the plot somewhere along the way. At this point, they’ve simply scary. Authoritarian war mongers, and that’s to put it politely. And so I would vote for Trump, simply to oppose the Democrats. What’s wrong with RFK Jr? He makes more sense than either Biden or Trump. The day he announced his candidacy, I donated money. If he wins, great. If he takes votes away from Biden, great. Either way, it’s a win. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
