These GOP members argue that if Biden can’t be a candidate, he can’t be president. The president has said he won’t resign and will focus on finishing out his term.

    Of course they did. Because those people are hypocritical, disingenuous turds who care more about grandstanding for the lunatic fringe of their base than they care to be reasonable human beings.

      It would be somewhat interesting to see what would happen if Biden called their bluff. Biden resigns, Harris becomes the President, she nominates someone to replace her as VP, then runs a reelection campaign in a few months. Without their usual talking points to bitch about with Biden I feel like they’d be kind of at a loss for what to even say. No more Hunter to complain about, none of the tired bullshit they’ve recycled for years now. They’ve sunk so much time and effort into attacking Biden I’m not sure they could pivot to Harris quickly enough. What could they dig up on Harris? A lot of progressives don’t like her stance on law enforcement, but that’s a non-starter for the Republicans as it’s basically their stance.
