Biden drops out of presidential race after disastrous debate performance

Not since October 7th

 

No one WANTS to take a bullet, for any reason.

 

She has the campaign warchest. Also she is a 'WoC.' She will likely be the one going against Trump. Maybe with the plan of stepping down too after the election, to emplace whoever is chosen as her VP.

 

GA, NV, and WI, have specific procedures for withdrawal of a presidential nominee with differing degrees of applicability and timelines.’ WI does not allow withdrawal for any reason besides death.” ballot access in Ohio, Washington and Colorado? Ohio has the deadline on the 15th of August, Washington is the 19/20 but they’re illegally accepting a provisional certification.

 

could be why Trump and Biden are nutty, or could be old age....

 

Been on a mountain top and miss the last few weeks? The catalyst was the debate, and the entire dem machine has fallen apart since. 8 years building it, less than a month to crumble. I'd call that dramatic. Self-inflicted, unavoidable and late, but dramatic.

 

The donation bucks dried up. That's what made him drop out.

Like the old saying goes: money talks and bullshit walks.

 

LOL, Trump nor his VP should ever run this country

 

Well, Biden had to do what would be right for us all including the Democrats. I was surprised that he dropped out of the race. Biden had his reasons and so be it.

 

So much for the tone down the rhetoric appeals then and I trust younwonyt complain when Trump and the real patriotic Americams go after the Dem candidate.

 

Barack Obama NOT endorsing Kamala Harris:

“I have extraordinary confidence that the leaders of our party will be able to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges.”

Can M. Obama/Harris ticket win the election?

 

She would have a fund raising problem at this stage of the game. Anyone, other than Harris, is going to be in the same boat.

 

There is no dem nominee yet. So nothing to change

 

Actually, that's a valid question. With nothing to lose, Joe can pull a lot of crap now that he couldn't do if he was still in the running.

 

Really, he was "nominated" BEFORE the convention?

Nope.

 

White House aides found out he was dropping out on X

 

No, not in America. She has to pick a white man to win. Sad, but true.

 

Maybe a combination of being nutty when young, getting influenza repeatedly, Covid repeatedly and getting old.

 

There would only be one black candidate. The other is 1/4 black.

 

Johnson dropped out after the FIRST state primary in New Hampshire, as opposed to Biden after all 50 states had completed their primary elections.

 

Ohio tried using this rule to ban Biden from the ballot. I believe it failed. And the provision has always been granted in the past. They wanted to create a special exception for Dems.

 

The big question is: will anyone want to?

 

They didn't try to use a rule to ban Biden. They were upholding state law. No one is above the law. Right?

 

I’m sure Biden didn’t just impulsively drop out without a plan already in place up through the convention.

 

They did. And this is the only time they would have ever used the law in this way. Ever.
