I have no idea why GOPers keep repeating this stupid fantasy about Biden coming off the ticket. Is Trump really THAT scared to face him?
Why would Trump be replaced? You don't replace a winner!

That they want Bernie, and he was pushed aside, many will sit out the election and not vote.

The poor right wingers will likely have to sign up early to get the counseling they will need after Biden wins.
Biden is going to at best limp to the finish line, behind Trump. But, in your fantasy, Biden wins and is removed under the 25th Amendment Section 4. I mean, seriously, they already have everything they need to prove him to be incompetent. The man is so mentally confused that he has mistaken what position he was running for and where he was.

They had to really "shake the bushes" to come up with those two which I guess they consider their "best", so not looking good.

Also, who he was. "I'm Joe Biden's husband."

It's cute, until he doesn't want to debate Trump. Trump is ready....

I don't think they'll drop him at this point no? That would be a clear sign of weakness and disarray. I swear they have some kind of internal 'woke' meter to determine who they run,..lol. But at the end of the day it'll still be an old white man or woman.

I think that's the right answer. If Joe drops out they go with Kamala and whoever she picks as VEEP. (I don't think it's gonna be Tulsi. Tulsi destroyed Kamala in the debate.)
I have no idea who Kamala would pick, but I know she is silently surveying the field.

Booker... from the Kool Aid moment at the debates.

Harris-Booker, Thank you for President Donald John Trump second term.

Agree. It's all smoke and mirrors. They don't like Kamala so she will be tainted with the stink of loser after this election, and out of the running for 2024.

This is all Politics 101, not some indication of a surge by Trump

Biden didn't really get a convention bounce. In fact, many people have noted how little polling came out after the DNC convention. The lack of polling after the DNC convention really suggests that the polling was pretty bad, and they elected not to publish the polling.

I've said from the beginning that Hillary is going to come in through the back door, one way or another...
