Democratic lawmakers hailed President Joe Biden’s historic decision on Sunday not to seek reelection, praising him as putting his country and his party before himself. Republicans called on him to resign from office, saying that if he could not run for another term, office, then he’s unable to serve as president.
Biden’s announcement came after more than two weeks of Democrats urging him to withdraw from the race. Nearly three dozen lawmakers had publicly called on him to end his reelection bid. Others had voiced concerns privately about what the ramifications would be for down-ballot Democrats if he remained in the race. When the president heeded those concerns, Democrats called it a selfless move.
Until she nominates a VP. It isn’t like Johnson would become VP, that isn’t how it works.
And that nominee is going to be approved by the Republican controlled House a few months before the election? Do you not remember what happened when Obama tried to appoint a Supreme Court justice an entire year before he left office?
Who, Republicans? They have no power over the DNC’s nominee nor are either party even required to have a primary. The DNC convention to choose a nominee isn’t even until next month so who’s fucking with the ballots?
