Should Biden step down now so that Kamala Harris can be President?

It’s not a bad idea. As unpopular of a take as it might be, I do think that Biden (or Harris) should pardon Trump before he takes office. If nothing else, it protects the country from the otherwise inevitable damage to democratic norms and the fights that will ensue. We already know that Trump isn’t going to face prosecution now that he has been reelected, so we might as well get out of the situation gracefully.

Absolutely NOTHING Trump has in mind, will EVER “unite the country.” Only further unite the right.

Biden dying and making Kamala the lamest lame duck president there ever was is the funniest possible outcome. I don’t think it’s going to happen, though.

I heard this idea on the radio yesterday. It’s certainly interesting!

Trump just say “told you so.” it would “prove” his lie that Biden is not competent.

“This might help to unite the country.” Trump will not let the country unite, he needs the fear and tension by his followers against. critical thinkers. Trump will actively cause turmoil.

I wouldn’t put it past the Dems, though I think they’d be shooting themselves in the foot by doing that. They have fought long and hard to say Biden is sharper than ever and quite capable. Forcing him out of the presidential race was already looked upon negatively. If they tried to force him out of office now, they’d basically have to say he is incompetent to hold office. They no longer have any hold over Biden. They could threaten him before with pulling all the support of the party in his bid to be POTUS. That is no longer a threat. I guess they could arrange an assassination, but that would be highly suspect. Also, doing a stunt like that would harm the party immeasurably. It would be viewed as a political stunt that showed the Dems don’t care about the country or democracy but only their own identity politics. Yes, they could claim they had the first woman POTUS, but it would be a tainted claim and the American people would see right through it. People are tired of the idiotic political games and want the country run by responsible people that are not as concerned with self-serving party goals.

As for Biden not pardoning his son, I wouldn’t say he will hold to that promise. He can pardon Hunter with little to no recriminations. Yes, people might say he was a liar, but who cares? He’s not going to be running for any offices any time soon. I also can’t picture anyone hiring him for any position. He will fade into the past. So there really is no downside for him.

Agree with most of @seawulf575 said, except the crazy assassination bit. But the rest is spot on. In terms of Hunter Biden being pardoned I really give zero fucks.

I’d be OK with that move. Let her be president for a couple of weeks. Then she can face Trump at inauguration day.
