Democratic oligarchs have just ousted their own voters

Democrat oligarchs overthrew the will of 14 million voters on Sunday after President Joe Biden who announced Sunday he would not seek re-election.

Democrats have spent years breathlessly claiming that “democracy” (in our Constitutional Republic) is at risk if former President Donald Trump wins. But apparently the threshold for risks to “democracy” depends on the likelihood of winning. When it became clear Biden could not prevail over the consensus that he is unable to carry out the duties of a presidential candidate after his frightening debate performance, Democrats moved to subvert the will of their own voters to better their chances of retaining power.

Rep. Angie Craig, D-Minn., admitted just that when she said she did not believe Biden could “effectively campaign and win against Donald Trump.” Rep. Raúl Grijalva, D-Ariz., echoed a similar sentiment, telling The New York Times that Democrats “have to win this race” and Biden needs to “get out of this race.”

Their concerns simply rested on whether their party could win. It’s why 17 lawmakers who called for Biden to step down failed to answer when asked by The Federalist whether they also think Biden should resign as president.

In simpler terms, Democratic primary voters who cast a ballot for Biden are now being told by handful of D.C. elites that their votes were simply perfunctory.

As George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley said in a post on X, “Vice President Kamala Harris will now be in the awkward position of leading the ticket to ‘defend democracy’ after being made the nominee through succession by defenestration.”

Biden gave no explanation for his monumental decision to withdraw from the race after profusely disputing reports that he would not remain the nominee. Of course, a verbal “why” is not needed: Biden showed the American public why he couldn’t remain as nominee when he failed to speak coherently during the presidential debate and struggled to exit the debate stage unassisted. It’s why Democrats launched a blitz campaign against the incumbent demanding he step down. They knew the chance of Biden beating Trump was shrinking, so they had to do what needed to be done to maintain control of the executive branch.

But for the same reasons that Biden is unable to be the nominee, he is also unable to be the president. No one disagrees that Biden’s cognitive decline is a severe impediment to his ability to carry out his enumerated duties — it’s why Democrats want him off the ticket. Removing Biden as the nominee becomes a justifiable usurpation of primary voters’ will when Democrats also remove Biden as the president. But if Democrats aren’t willing to invoke the 25th Amendment, or get Biden to step down, then their justification is simply a flex of their political muscle: “We can do whatever we want.”

And if Democrats can so easily ice out their own candidate, what else are they capable of?
