US Joe Biden News Megathread - The Other Biden Derangement Syndrome Thread (with a side order of Fauci Derangement Syndrome)

Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

 

[Leibowitz]

If Pence became President, does he choose who becomes VP? I'm trying to see what happened when Nixon resigned.

The process looks just like a SC Justice or Federal judge nomination. Ford nominated Nelson Rockefeller to be VP and the senate confirmed him. Ford himself was nominated and confirmed to replace Spiro Agnew, who resigned as Nixon's VP amid a bribe scandal.

Oh okay.

And when does Kiefer Sutherland become president?

At this point, the Dems should just admit Harris is the candidate. Joe would put a lid on Inaguration Day.

Harris is so fucking unlikable that the black vote barely moved the needle when factoring her into account. The Democrats just assumed "Eh, brown skin, the niggers are too dumb to know she's not really African American." The only way they COULD get her in is off a Biden victory. Because if Biden wins, he'll be declared unfit as soon as humanly possible.

The problem is, as Trump pointed out, he's doing the same thing as Clinton. He's not really holding big rallies himself, he's barely moving from his home, he's doing canned events, not really going to different states. Meanwhile Trump is bouncing around holding rally after rally after rally. The BLM protests are fucking KILLING their poll numbers. People are sick and fucking tired of BLM all the goddamn time. You can't come out and say it because the vocal minority will screech and demand you are fired. Even fucking black people are tired of them. Like every fucking time a criminal gets shot they go apeshit. They don't even fucking WAIT for the news. The woman shot in her bed? Turns out she was standing in the hallway with her boyfriend. Police announced themselves multiple times and the boyfriend decides to start shooting. Yeah, she shouldn't have died, but these faggots just think 'Hey, the cops should have let themselves get shot'.

Then you get these fucking idiots blocking the street and attacking cars, and the police are ordered to protect the protesters above all else, so they arrest the guy in the car the people are mobbing. This shit will keep happening.

And Harris is a fucking prosecutor and its happening in Dem states. I don't believe her poll numbers will fair any better than Biden's.

 

[Getting tard comed]

Just had a crazy thought. What happens if Biden dies before the election?

It's worse for the DNC; announcing Harris caused the needle to move DOWN. Because even black people hate this bitch.

Breaking news: don't spend your entire career locking up black men for cheap labor and then start pandering to them years later.

We've talked about it. The Dems pick a new person to replace him.

they'll lose the election. Ticket shakeups this late in the game spell doom every time they've happened.

Yeah, I don't know WHAT the fuck they were thinking when they recruited her for VP. She might be a total DNC creature who fucked and backstabbed her way to the top, but she is unlikable and fucking electoral poison. Seriously, Biden is the only way she will ever become President because no Democrat in their right mind would choose her as VP. Its like letting a viper in the hen house. Its like having Clinton as your VP.

Biden really isn't running. Hence his rambling and taking taps and not really giving a shit. He knows that Harris is the candidate and he's there for the dog and pony show. Maybe they had some dirt on him and threatened to throw it out there if he didn't run. Or maybe they just manipulated him into running. Or he has dementia and thinks its the 2008 campaign and that his running mate was Harris and Barack Obama was just his long time friend. Who the fuck knows. But like Clinton, it doesn't feel like a real race. You've got a boring as fuck, uninspired candidate and a completely hated VP. You've got him not doing events. And then you are constantly prepping news stories threatening violence and election thievery. Why in the fuck should I vote for you?

 

[Salubrious]

Yeah, I don't know WHAT the fuck they were thinking when they recruited her for VP.

They wanted a black woman and she was literally the only "viable" candidate.

The only other two I can even think of are Stacey Abrams (HA!) who has still refused to accept that she lost the election in Georgia, and Michelle Obama.

Unless Michelle actually turned them down (which is possible), they should have just went with her. The fact that she has zero experience but was beloved would have actually been a positive in a sea of nothing but negatives.

 

[Quixotic Man]

The sitting President picks a new VP. It what happened with Nixon when Agnew resigned. He picked Ford, creating the odd circumstance where Ford is the only President to ever serve while also not being voted in to the position by the Electoral College.

Isnt that how typical black leadership works?

 

[CrippleThreat]

Any calls on a lid yet, or did the "low energy" remark by Trump get the gears turning?

The problem is, as Trump pointed out, he's doing the same thing as Clinton. He's not really holding big rallies himself, he's barely moving from his home, he's doing canned events, not really going to different states. Meanwhile Trump is bouncing around holding rally after rally after rally.

Biden and Harris have their soapbox remarks if there is not a lid to be called... I don't know if they do jack shit. Biden goes to Kenosha after pussyfooting, and suddenly he's up by +100 in the (fake) polls, despite the rapport for Trump, as well as his and his team's mass campaigning.

 

[гape]

Trump is speaking in public every single day. Biden has not spoken in public this entire campaign, and years before that.

Public speaking is something you can get rusty at even without cognitive decline; so Biden is at an even greater disadvantage.

I honestly never thought I'd see in my lifetime a presidential campaign where a candidate wouldn't speak to the public OR the press. It's amazing that THE PRESS is so fixed on their narrative of protecting Biden at all costs that they are fine with both him and Kamala refusing to answer their questions throughout an entirety of their campaign. Meanwhile Trump takes them all on and doesn't give a fuck that they all hate him.

joe does speak to the public but it usually ends up in him threatening autoworkers

True. Ford was President of the United States, and yet he was never successfully elected to anything outside the State of Michigan. Weird.

All Biden and Harris are doing is just relying on enough Trump hate to get them elected, which is possible, but neither have any causes or policies they are fighting for beyond "ORANGE MAN BAD".

So apparently someone noticed the “what’s new” section of his website hasn’t been updated in nearly a month.

Well it couldn't be Michelle obama, he promised it would be a woman.
Susan rice was under consideration, but she's even more corrupt and less likable than kamala.

Pelosi: ‘Why Bother’ Holding a Presidential Debate? — Trump ‘Isn’t Committed to Our Constitution’

With many criticizing 2020 Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden of hiding in his basement for the majority of his campaign, presidential debates seemingly would be a good way for the former vice president to refute claims of a decline in mental cognizance and that he is pushing a socialist agenda.

During a Friday interview on CBS’s “This Morning,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) doubled down on saying Biden should not debate President Donald Trump. Pelosi argued that Trump “has no fidelity to fact or truth” and “isn’t committed to our Constitution,” thus she asked “why bother” holding a debate with him.

Host Gayle King asked, “You had earlier suggested that you didn’t think Biden should debate. Do you still feel that way?”

“I do,” Pelosi replied. “Not that I don’t think he’ll be excellent. I just think that the president has no fidelity to fact or truth, and actually, in his comments the last few days, no fidelity to the Constitution of the United States. He and his henchmen are a danger with their comments, are a danger to our democracy. So, I didn’t want to give him — you know, why bother — you know, he doesn’t tell the truth, he isn’t committed to our Constitution.”

King pushed back against Pelosi, referring to Trump’s supporters as “henchmen,” suggesting it could be “just as insulting” as the things he says about her.

“Your language to some is just as egregious as what they’re saying by calling the president’s people henchmen. Some could say that’s just as insulting as what he’s saying about you,” King advised.

Pelosi responded, “Well, I don’t care what he says about me. Every knock from him is a boost for me. If he wants to help me raise money, he can keep knocking me. But I’m speaking truth. Our Constitution is at the mercy of people who have no allegiance to the Constitution of the United States.”

——————————————————————————————————————————————————

Will these debates still happen now, or not? This “either he does or doesn’t” thing doesn’t effect me either way since it’s all bread and circuses at the end of the day, but they’re still saying it as if it’s not going to happen.

Shouldn't it be EASIER to debate someone that lies all the time?
