    That’s nice, it’s too bad that the GOP doesn’t care what the will of people is. Now some GOP members in CO are talking about having Biden removed from the ballet.

    I just hope that since Trump lost in 2020, that his chances to winning this time are even lower. I don’t like Biden a ton either, but he’s leaps and bounds better then Trump in every regard. It isn’t like Trump has done anything since 2020 to win back any of those “on the fence” voters. I’d just prefer if Trump wasn’t even an option though, to be on the safe side.

      Now some GOP members in CO are talking about having Biden removed from the ballot.

      They quite literally can’t. He’s an American citizen, over 35 years of age & hasn’t engaged in Insurrection or Treason.

      It’s all bluster from #fascist sympathizers trying to rile up their idiot supporters & donations. The appropriate response is ridiculing them.

        I’m against disqualifying candidates just because someone on Lemmy didn’t like them.

        Trump got removed because crimes.

        If they try to remove Biden it will just be because he’s a democrat. If you replace Biden with someone else they’d just remove them as well.

        I wonder if the courts would be held responsible seeing as how miscarriages are charged with things like murder, manslaughter, and mishandling a corpse.
