Republicans, in one of the more moronic takes of the election season, say that if Biden is too old to run for office, then he’s too old to hold the office and should resign.

    I’m in favor of Biden resigning, if for no other reason than to make Kamala Harris the 47th President and make Trump reprint all of his “45-47” hats.

      I’m in favour just because I am pretty damned sure they don’t realize this would allow Kamala to have a short track record and point to it as a “trial run” showing how qualified she is

      EDIT: Spelling Error

          If he stepped down, Kamala would be president for a few months, thus giving America a small taste of what her presidency looks like

          This would backfire big time for the GoP since it would allow her to flex a bit

        Yeah, I’m baffled. Just having her do speeches as president gives her massive credibility to the voters.

        Unless their plan is to goad her into it then call her a power hungry traitor who stole the presidency I guess. But even for them it seems like a tough sell.
