Republicans pile on Biden to resign after he quits 2024 race
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.
This is the only argument that made me reconsider my position.
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

Who the fuck said he's too old to hold office?
Joe Biden is too old to win our bullshit popularity competition of an election - he can do the job just fine.
Similarly, I'm an ace of a senior developer, but drawing out a complex algorithm on a white board will stop dumb companies from ever hiring me.
Bold of you to assume they're attempting to make an argument in good faith in any capacity
Why would that stop them from hiring you?
It's mostly newer programmers who remember how to design a complex algorithm on the fly because these are taught in college and then used as study tools to land a job. Over the past decade or so, software companies started requiring these algorithm tests during interviews. More senior developers don't want to go back and study for something that really won't do much to help them at all, except in interviews.
Part of the reason for such performative job hiring shenanigans is to have an excuse for ageism.
Apparently the Republicans just can't wait for Harris to be the first black woman to be President.
It'd fuck up their stupid 45-47 hats.
This is almost petty enough to be appealing, haha.
And, since she assumed the role after hallway through the term, she could still run for president twice more, serving over two terms.
Incumbents always have an advantage in elections.
Just in time for her to use the new monarchical powers, too. Shame they just don't think.
These magats just can't stand to hear anything but themselves speak and will say anything as long as they get to talk.
Good.
Kamala becomes President and has unlimited powers thanks to their hand picked Court.
I can think of a few "official acts" she can order.
Haha, fuckoff GQPers
As someone hoping he would bow out of the race: fuck you, Republicans. He was elected. He will serve the term he was elected for. Nobody at any point was pushing for him to resign from office.
Still, I'd like to see the look on their faces when it dawns on them that Kamala will be their President and THEY ASKED FOR IT. 🤣
Resigning helps make the case for a replacement now, say his health has declined and he the nation is bigger than one man.
That turtle mother fucker first.
That would be some next level fuckery there, lol. Get Moscow Mitch to step down first, then, okay, Biden steps down. Then they learn that they will have a girl boss who is a POC and that all that stupid magamerchandise is worthless and donnie will have to sell them more.
good...yes! keep the focus on Biden. thanks republicans
Because they love Harris so much?
Bad strategy, in my opinion. Most (relatively) apolitical people are going to look at what Biden did and think it was a selfless and humble act. They look like spoiled children. I guess it's not a strategy, it's a bunch of babies lashing out.
They had this planned since last week. F em.
Now see this one I think that, while probably a good idea objectively, isn't one that he should cave into if only because fuck the Republicans. Those guys are dicks.
