This was always the plan. They will contest any replacement and then only Trump will be on the ballot. AOC tried to warn you fucking people. This is why Biden needed to go over a year ago and the PARTY said “fuck you guys” until it was too hard to fucking ignore.
Election law expert Richard Hasen wrote that there is “no credence” to the notion that the Democratic Party could not legally replace Biden on the ticket, as he is not the nominee yet – the nominating process generally takes place during the Democratic National Convention.
“Joe Biden is not the party’s nominee now, and states generally point to the major party’s nominee as the one whose name is on the ballot,” he wrote in a piece earlier this month.
I think I’ll believe the expert.
It seems like everything is litigable so we shall see, I put no new low below these animals currently controlling the judiciary
You gonna take Johnson’s word for what can and can’t be done? Biden wasn’t even the official candidate yet until the DNC. Calm down for a second

Mike Johnson adopted a black son who’s never in Johnson family pictures.
Sounds cool.
Scared?? Yup, they’re scared.
Narrator: it is not
If far right Republicans like Johnson are already playing it this way, it’s because they’re scared and desperate. They can win against biden, anyone else is a threat. Another data point why this was the correct decision, among many others.
I was not a kamala fan, but I’ll be voting for her fervently on election day. I’m fucking pumped.
its so annoying how full of shit the republican party is. Even without trump they are worse than they have ever been.
Ballots aren’t even printed yet for any state. I do think Biden should have stopped a while back (remember “One term?”) but it’s better than post-convention.
Now we can have Harris get nom’d, debate, and hopefully not deal with Orange Fucker again. I’m more hopeful with Harris winning than Joe BIden, more due to her age and track record more than anything else.
His lips were moving. The clear tell that Johnson is lying.
House speaker should have an IQ requirement.
Johnson is an idiot. This is embarrassing for him and the GOP. Keep up the good work loser. All Biden would have to do is get a doctor to say he’s not medically fit anyway. Which we all know wouldn’t be hard.
Too bad it’s a state-level thing and not up to him or that would matter.
I’ve seen way too much fuckery that the Republicans keep winning in court on to fully trust that that’s enough to save us.
Oh I’m sure they’ll try. But I think even SCOTUS would have a hard time justifying forcing a presidential candidate who dropped out before the convention to be on the ballot. They may still do it, but I think it will be very, very difficult. I could certainly see Roberts not going for that.
Roberts I’m iffy about, he seems torn between his legacy and his legacy…
The real legacy of being a semi-corrupted court, and the winners-take-all-and-write-the-history legacy of being the bestest court ever who helped Donald Trump secure his win against the evil corrupt Democrats. He seems at least mildly interested in the latter, because it allows him to pretend he’s more serious than he is.
bro is just afraid that it won’t be an ez W for MAGA now, and OP is capitulating to that fear
like do we live in a democratic republic or not? the idea that a candidate who isn’t even nominated yet can’t be replaced is laughable and should be attacked at all fronts, not given lip service.
like do we live in a democratic republic or not?
That’s the trillion $ question.
