Biden and DHS Secretary Mayorkas refusal to secure the Southern border and orders to the Border Patrol and Customs and Border Protection to parole and admit thousands of indigent migrants is a flagrant violation of 8 U.S.C. Aliens and Nationality Act. Then there is Biden's support of the Build Back America boondoggle that if passed is estimated to add $365 billion to the national debt over the next ten years. I could go on but what's the point?

Chants of "Let's go Brandon!" may remind some of January 6th but whenever I see Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Sandy Ocasio-Cortez, Maxine Waters, Bernie Sanders, Rashida Tlaib, Ayanna Presley, Ilhan Omar, Elizabeth Warren, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Steve Cohen, Pramila Jayapal and other progressive members of the Democratic Party I think of how they either openly supported the dozens of rioters that waged mayhem in U.S. cities in 2020 or said very little to condemn them. I'll never vote for another Democrat for President, the House of Representatives or the U.S. Senate.

You nor anyone won't ever need to vote again, the R's have made it clear they will never certify another D no matter what the vote is. The R's have fixed this problem for you, enjoy the last years of democracy before the authoritarian party takes over in '24.

Or, do they force him to step down due to "medical reasons" or some other contrived excuse?

Kamala's polling 1% higher than Joe right now.

I say watch the msm closely to see which one they start propping up with positive press. That will be the key.

Right now, they are trying to prop up Joe with positive economic news on employment, wages, & labor participation, but he's still behind Kamala. How long until they quit on Joe?
If the repubs have a good case to impeach him with, the dems may push him out the door ahead of any investigations.

Yeah, I think what will happen is Kamala will be convinced to step down, Hillary will replace her, and then Joe will step down making Hillary the President.
There won't be any impeachment. Hillary will run as the incumbent.


Meanwhile Dems hope to use the Covid-panic as an excuse to pass 100% mail in voting nationwide. That will give them a better chance of winning the election. Anyone who opposes this plan will be "against voting rights". Joe said he will do whatever it takes to get this bill (the one we haven't seen) passed.

unless they have a way to also get rid of Harris and Pelosi(which she wont be speaker anymore if this happens, Thank God) then they probably shouldn't put Biden out even though hes a world embarrassment.

Odds are Pelosi's gone by mid November.

The Dems might be thinking Kamala would do less damage than Joe at this point. Her approval ratings just passed Joe's at 43 to 42.

The key is the younger voters. Few post here but they hold the future.
Want to know how they think- go on reddit.
Most don't care about Afghanistan, border issues are of medium importance,
This may come as surprise, but they are not turned off as much as you by the progressive members.
They care a whole lot about the national debt
They care a whole lot about the environment
They care a whole lot about healthcare
They care a whole lot about pro choice
Once the boomers cease to be a political force, there will be a move to the left on social issues for sure. The relatively few Millennials and gen zers who do identify as Republican are socially more liberal than older generations. A concern for Republicans as the Millennials enter middle age is there hasn't been a large move to conservative ideology as compared to previous generations. The 2030s will be when the Republicans have to change to stay relevant.

I hate when republicans start putting their chest out about some upcoming red wave. Just **** about it and keep the drum beat about how crazy he woke is and how terrible the lib policies are. The problem will correct itself without the fluff pieces.

Kamala. Better approval ratings, easy to control, will stay out of the public eye as instructed.
