Republicans Ready to Pressure Biden to Resign
…Republicans are laying the groundwork to pressure him to resign from office.
That’s absolutely not going to happen. Biden would be crazy to resign the Presidency. There would then be no Vice President to preside over the certification of electoral votes on January 6th, and no Vice President to cast the deciding vote for any 50–50 split vote in the Senate. No amount of pressure from Republicans would make resignation a smart move.
One of the Republican Convention’s Weirdest Lies
I watched hour upon hour of the Republican National Convention, something I’ve done every four years since I was a young political nerd in 1984. I was even a Mitt Romney delegate at the Republican convention in 2012, and this was the first that was centered entirely around a fundamentally false premise: that in our troubled time, Donald Trump would be a source of order and stability.
To bolster their case, Republicans misled America. Speaker after speaker repeated the claim that America was safer and the world was more secure when Trump was president. But we can look at Trump’s record and see the truth. America was more dangerous and the world was quite chaotic during Trump’s term. Our enemies were not intimidated by Trump. In fact, Russia improved its strategic position during his time in office…
The most egregious example of Republican deception centered around crime. The theme of the second night of the convention was “Make America Safe Again.” Yet the public mustn’t forget that the murder rate skyrocketed under Trump…
That’s a human catastrophe, and it’s one that occurred on Trump’s watch. Republicans want to erase 2020 from the American mind…
