Biden is old news :upside_down_face:

He’s out.

@SmallPaul This is why I keep calling you deluded… You post rubbish about the United States being a Democracy and not a Republic… Then when you are shown to absolutely wrong… And you don’t even know what’s written in the American Pledge of Allegiance…

You start posting lashings of cut and paste on how the United States should become a Democracy…

Then to top that off… You tell me I should remind your Politian’s that the US is a Republic…
Seriously… Do you even read what you post… You have to be certifiable for sure…

It’s the usual waffle from the threads resident Madman…

America is a Republic, but how it’s governed is a different story

I was hoping you understood what I meant.

GOP lost the popular vote in all but one of the last eight presidential elections.

George W. Bush, a Republican, won the popular vote in the 2004 presidential election, according to the Federal Election Commission. He left office in 2009, 14 years ago.

Bush left office in 2009 after serving two terms. That means the last Republican presidential candidate to win the popular vote left office 14 years ago

America is a Republic, but how it’s governed in different states is another story

Should presidential elections be conducted the same way as state governorships?

All 50 states currently elect their governors by a statewide popular vote

In every state, the Executive Branch is headed by a governor who is directly elected by the people. In most states, other leaders in the executive branch are also directly elected, including the lieutenant governor, the attorney general, the secretary of state, and auditors and commissioners.

What a strange election year, There are so many turns of events.

Kamala Harris smashes fundraising record with stunning $81 million haul over 24 hours

NEW YORK (AP) — Kamala Harris is smashing fundraising records as the Democratic Party’s donors — big and small — open their wallets for the vice president in the immediate aftermath of President Joe Biden’s stunning decision to step aside.

In total, Harris’ team raised more than $81 million in the 24-hour period since Biden’s announcement, campaign spokesperson Kevin Munoz said Monday.

The massive haul, which includes money raised across the campaign, the Democratic National Committee and joint fundraising committees, represents the largest 24-hour sum reported by either side in the 2024 campaign. Harris’ campaign said it was the largest single-day total in U.S. history.

“The historic outpouring of support for Vice President Harris represents exactly the kind of grassroots energy and enthusiasm that wins elections,” Munoz said.

Hours earlier, Future Forward, the largest super PAC in Democratic politics, announced it had secured $150 million in commitments over the same period from donors who were “previously stalled, uncertain or uncommitted,” a senior adviser said.

Taken together, the fundraising explosion puts Harris in a dominant position to secure the Democratic Party’s formal presidential nomination at next month’s national convention — if not sooner. The donor class’s embrace comes as she locks up endorsements from the vast majority of Democratic governors and members of Congress.

The huge haul also ensures that Harris and her allies can compete with Donald Trump, who has generated stunning fundraising totals of his own in recent weeks as he fights to return to the White House following multiple felony convictions and an assassination attempt.

Start the clock. And get the recycle bin ready. I see a future filled with millions of political mailers hitting my mailbox between now and November.

I just looked at some political betting sites and was surprised to see that Kamala Harris as next President is only about 2/1 or even a fraction less (I expected about 4/1), and that Michelle Obama as Democrat candidate is now as high as 30/1 (I expected maybe 12/1 or 14/1). Shows you what I know! :blush:

During the election, we saw the disrespect people can have for people who get old and start losing their minds, the name-calling and making jokes were off the charts, but it showed people’s true personalities and what they are about.

I can’t really disagree, but they were trying and provocative circumstances, too?

Many voters do - not unreasonably? - expect to have a realistic choice between candidates not way past retiring age?

They were following their leader, who behaved worse than a toddler. Every leader he praises, including the Chinese leader he praised at RNC, does not act or behave like a 5-year-old, but he admires them, which is getting scarier, his admiration for authoritarian leaders and dictators.

Democrats threatened to ‘forcibly remove’ Biden from office: Report

Just remember that the same people who told you “Joe is sharp as ever” and “he’s mentally fit” are the same people telling you that VP Cackling Kamala is “great”

All these polls are BS… In 2016 polls showed Hilary led Trump by over 10 points, and yet Trump smoked her on Election Day… Kamala Harris has done absolutely nothing as Vice President… And was such a success as the US’s Southern Border Zsar… NOT…

Kamala Embarrass’s chance of wining is less then 10%… She will need miracles to pull this one off, no matter how much those elite Hollywood liberals stars support her…

BTW… Guess who just bought a $185 million dollar Motel and Casino in Cyprus…?

Vladimir Zelenskyy would like to thank Joe Biden and the gullible US Taxpayer…

Fox News Host Makes Lara Trump SQUIRM Over STUNNING ELECTION UPDATE!

Fox News host Martha McCallum confronts Lara Trump, Donald Trump’s daughter-in-law and co-chair of the Republican National Committee, about the stunning fundraising of Vice President Kamala Harris.

This is what happens when you have an outsider stressing over American Politics

Yeah… Yeah… Yeah… Lets think about this for a moment… Many of Joe Biden’s and the Democrats Fundraiser’s and Donators were holding back their funding until the US’s Stumbling, Mumbling and Fumbling President Joe Biden was removed from office…

Biden is miraculously removed from the candidacy and Kamala is air lifted in and Wham… Bang…
Millions in pledged money… Before Kamala threw Joe to the curb… Suddenly appears in the Democrats election war chest… Not hard to work out where that $81 Million came from…

It’s a bit like 81 Million votes that Joe managed to procure in the last election cycle… Miraculous…
