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?

I'm pretty sure "broken and powerless" is a fate most of them would consider worse than death.

I mean, they are already broken and powerless but to have it confirmed would be too much.

1. Biden probably can't get through a press conference without pissing himself. Why the Washington Post wants that confirmed is beyond me.

2. Scott Adams predicted "we would have two presidents." We seem to be up to... 5 by now?
Joe Biden.
Trump because the media can't shut up about him.
Manchin is setting domestic policy.
Harris is fielding calls from foreign leaders.
Jill Biden has to hover over Joe lest he fuck everything up.

Yeah. This is going real well.

Of course he’s out of his league, he doesn’t even have a popular mandate because he wasn’t elected. If someone gets into a world championship MMA tournament because they altered the entrance forms they’re still gonna get their asses handed to them.

That kind of already happened. I think it was UFC 2, 3, or 4 where they still did a 1 night single elimination tournament. One of the guys that made it to the finals was injured in his last fight and they had to replace him with a stand in. He kicked the shit out of a superior fighter because he was totally fresh and the other guy was on his 4th fight of the night. I wanna say the UFC changed the rules immediately after.

Biden really fucked the people who voted for him in sonic amounts of time. No 2k checks, not even minor loan assistance, an Iran invasion Gear up (where is John Bolton and Dick Cheney). He's plummeted all my already low expectations

I know right, isn't it awesome? If he keeps this up we might have something to look forward to in 2022. If we're really lucky and the stock market crashes (as some have been predicting it to) we might even have a shot in 2024.

Is the stock market really going to crash? The most I can see happening is something like GameStop except everyone wis working to prevent that from happening again.

AS much as I find the Left distasteful and seemingly hell-bent on destroying the beliefs and values that define the US, I cannot accept the idea that they are an other that needs to be destroyed. They need to be humbled, they need to be discredited, and they need to be ridiculed into the ground like what was done to the Fundamentalist Christian Right, but to argue that the US needs to engage in a civil war to preserve its greatness is remarkably short-sighted. I know you didn't call for a civil war, but that sort of thinking is sadly what leads to one.

Key difference between the fundies and the SJWs, the fundies wanted to preserve Protestant values. SJWs destroy all standards. They are ALL MovieBlob where they can never admit to being humbled and no matter how often they get discredited by every standard, they will never admit defeat and they will never stop. They don't care about making sense and even with Biden remorse, they will still cheat to get their way.

The key failure of the Right was they weren't willing to risk Civil War by breaking into the vote counters to make sure Republican observers saw what they were counting. They wanted to rely on the law and while in normal circumstances, I would agree, the law actively failed at every turn. The Right--and Trump--was worried about the optics and they were cheated out of a fair election.

There's a lot of unknown right now. Money is pooling in the hands of the 1%, and isnt really moving through the local economy very well, specifically in big cities in blue states. If those economies start to fall apart due to continued lockdowns, even with a government bailout you cant just magic up new businesses to replace those lost, nor magic people back to the cities. You cant magic away all the debt, missed payments, and social fear.

The US stock market cant survive on just a few megacorporations. All the companies on the stock exchange regularly do business with small and medium sized businesses. If those dry up there will be a dramatic decline in revenue. Even if this is a temporary hiccup, consumer debt of all kinds is at an all time high right now. Any sort of downturn in the economy would spur on a domino effect, from CC debt to housing debt to auto loans and student debt. All these bubbles would be at risk of popping in the event of a slowdown, or rampant inflation cutting consumer buying power yet again.

A domino effect on debt bubbles would cause a stock market crash.

Well, many on the right feel they still have something to lose if things go tits up. Also, many on the right most likely have some sort of moral restraint to keep them from going all out like what Antifa does. And if 1/6 is any indication, some may feel like there's only glowing after that, and that's their absolutely last resort all hope is lost scenario.

But, aren't some people fine with that if all that's left is Amazon, which had record profits at the height of the pandemic? And everyone on the left makes fun of leftists being proud of being soy eating pod people in the big cities.

The fact that money is getting printed at record levels, and so little of it is going anywhere but the stock market and crypto, says this is coming. Bubbles are like balloons, you don't know when its going to explode but there are certainly warning signs its about to happen.

I mean as an ideology. They need to be completely discredited and ridiculed, almost how like they lost the term "woke" to be anything more than a mockery of that type of self-righteous douche we all know and love.
