Well, this all depends.

I don't think it would have mattered once he had all the funds donated as they could not let that donor money go to waste once it was in the Biden/Harris campaign. She HAD to be the candidate at that point because Dems are fully run by their donors and that donor money under no circumstances could be allowed to be refunded.

That said, I think Biden in his anger about being pushed out immediately endorsed Harris to checkmate Pelosi and her team. Proof of his objective is that he still hasn't even spoken to her since he was replaced without his consent if all reports are true.


Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., pointed the finger at President Biden for not dropping out of the race earlier in an election post-mortem with the New York Times Thursday.

Pelosi told host Lulu Garcia-Navarro on The Times' "The Interview" podcast, "Had the president gotten out sooner, there may have been other candidates in the race."

As the former speaker told it, "The anticipation was that, if the president were to step aside, that there would be an open primary." Pelosi had been a key player in pushing Biden out after his infamous debate performance.

Instead, within an hour of announcing he was stepping aside on July 21, Biden endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris. Less than 36 hours later, she announced she had locked up the nomination, getting commitments of backing from a majority of DNC delegates.
 
I don't think the results would have been much different. It wasn't Harris that was the major problem, the Democrats that bailed on their party and voted Republican, made it pretty clear that it was what was happening to their country.
1. Millions of illegal migrants being funneled in through the southern border and given "free" plane tickets at taxpayer expense, free credit cards at taxpayer expense, free hotel housing at taxpayer expense and meals, while the taxpayers struggled to make ends meet.
2. Suburban moms seeing their high school aged daughters having to put up with biological males exposing themselves in school bathrooms, just because the boys claimed to be female.
3. Suburban moms seeing their daughters struggling hard to win in sports on girls teams, only to have males beating them, just because the males claim to be female.
4. Suburban moms seeing what can only be classified as pornography in school libraries and when they complain at school council meetings, they are told to stop citing the porn as it is offensive to the adults in the room???111
5. Drag shows for young children.
6. The ongoing lie that blacks are victims, yet when blacks ignore that falsehood, and focus on a good education and work hard to achieve, they do succeed.
On and on the idiocy went and even old-school liberal Bill Mahar said that the whole thing on the left was nuts.
Racism didn't win in the 2024 election, common sense did.
 
It doesn't matter. It woud have been difficult for those candidates to beat Harris. Newsome couldn't have. Whitmer couldn't have and these were the other top picks. Like I have said, pundits and talkers from both parties avoid and refuse to discuss the real problem. Until America fces our real problem nothing changes.

Yep democrats. Blame the old man. You knew he was a bum for at least two years and concealed it, then stuck in a political whore at the last minute to yank him out running a ridiculous campaign! But it's all Joe Biden's fault--- the entire democrat party are just "victims." :smoke:
 
Obama & pelosi told biden if you don't step down we'll remove you with the 25th amendment. So biden shoved a kamala up their asses :D

America DID face the real problem. And they kicked their Democrat asses out of power! :cool:
 
When Biden "ran" for President in 2020, he indicated that he would only serve one term. I'm not sure why this "promise" is not brought up more often.

Even as the Monday-Morning Quarterbacks criticize Biden for how he handled the situation, they don't mention any would-be candidates who would necessarily have done better. There are none.

The only thing that was clear, or should have been clear, is that Harris could not be a strong candidate. She has never been a good public speaker, an insightful elected official, or someone who could be seen as effective when dealing with hostile foreign Heads of State. Not facilitating some sort of "primary" was unforgivable, especially for the party that constantly brings up the ideal of "democracy."

Regardless, Trump's "overwhelming" victory is razor-thin. Hell, if you voided that election and had a re-do tomorrow, there is no reason to think the result would be the same.

I mentioned over a year ago that Biden wouldn't be seeking re-election based on his own words.

As I posted on here, I believe the mid-term surprise by the Dems in 2022 convinced Biden that he could win re-election. Ironic as it was driven by some neo-con, Never Trumper influencers of your S.C I presume which dropped the RvW repeal very soon before the 2022 mid-terms which provided a jolt to the Dem Party at that time and a surge in female voters for that midterm.

All of this was designed to blame Trump for their failures, but instead, it convinced Biden to stick around too long, leading to a Harris candidate which lead to Trumps success.

Trump almost certainly would beat Biden, but I said at the moment she replaced him that she would not be as popular in the Rust Belt states.
 
Well, this all depends.

I don't think it would have mattered once he had all the funds donated as they could not let that donor money go to waste once it was in the Biden/Harris campaign. She HAD to be the candidate at that point because Dems are fully run by their donors and that donor money under no circumstances could be allowed to be refunded.

That said, I think Biden in his anger about being pushed out immediately endorsed Harris to checkmate Pelosi and her team. Proof of his objective is that he still hasn't even spoken to her since he was replaced without his consent if all reports are true.

I love to sit back and watch all of the back stabbing.

Pelosi is a shriveled up alcoholic shrew.

I ignore her.

Dems had four years to groom a replacement, it's their own damn fault they used that time to go after Trump instead.

312-226 is not "razor thin", and there is no reason to think a re-do would change it.

2020 was the anomaly, not 2016 or 2024...

If a primary had taken place, Josh Shapiro, Gavin Newsom, Gretchen Whitmer, J.B. Pritzker, Wes Moore, Andy Beshear, and others would have run alongside Kamala. The result would have been a strong nominee chosen by voters in a competitive process. If it had been Kamala—which you'd have to consider unlikely, based on her 2019 run—she would have been a different candidate who would have done scores of interviews and been fully prepped and toughened.
 
When Bidumb looks behind him Pelosi is the bitch with the knife. She caused this.

Does she think this is going to save her from the gallows?
