The Biden Swap That Should Concern John Durham
Townhall.com ^ | August 8, 2020 | Cliff Nichols

The Democratic party has placed America in an interesting pickle. Three months before the election, Democrats continue pretending to support a presidential candidate who can’t possibly defeat the incumbent they all hate. How can one know they are pretending? Because in any remotely fair election, Biden can’t beat Trump. More importantly, the Democrats know this. Which leaves us wondering what they’re really up to.

Of course, they may hope to win by their vote-by-mail gambit, predicated on the “dangers” of Covid-19. But even if they could pull that off, aided by their mainstream media friends and the skewed anti-conservative censorship of social media, it remains unlikely they’d want Biden as the beneficiary of their shell game.

Why? Quite simply, no reasonably intelligent person could seriously want a president who delights more in letting children smooth down his curly leg hairs than anything else. That holds true even when his handlers let him out of his basement long enough to speak about the “city” of Arizona or tell the non-diverse block of voters who happen to be black—that is, when compared to Hispanics—how to officially qualify as black.

This alone indicates a Democratic leadership becoming more desperate with each passing moment. Your average Democrat probably agrees something must be done to remove the current president who threatens their most sacred of so-called sacred cows—their right to murder the preborn. At a higher level, however, other realities have transformed the president from a man Democrats have always hated into one they now fear. Some of them are assuredly feeling a growing urgency to wrest control of the DOJ and FBI from the president before he allows people like U.S. Attorney John Durham and Ghislaine Maxwell to publicize the nasty little things some of them have been doing over the last several years.

Because they’re running an insurrection and plan to overthrow the government and take power permanently?

Obama has praised the violence in the protests and Pelosi and Schumer have bowed down to them.

Begun this civil war already has.

Could be that the democrats realize that DJT is going to win and that there isn't much that they can do about it so they plan to double down on this "resistance" bullchit.

Four more years of this monkey cage screaming just to slow Trumps actions.

They've been mildly effective with this approach during the first term. I'd expect to see them dial the noise up and really tear the country up during the second.

Vegetablejoe is irrelevant. The Demonicrat nominee could just as well be a turnip. The Demonicrat goal is to defeat President Trump.

And the way the Demonicrats plan to do it is by a totally fraudulent election that makes the Demonicrats’ 1960 Chicago shenanigans and the 2000 Florida “hanging chads” fraud look like amateur hour.

If the Demonicrats can pull off their election coup, there will never be another free election in what used to be the United States of America.

Harvard Law School professor Laurence Tribe claimed there is a chance that neither Joe Biden nor Donald Trump will be president for the next four years.

Tribe, who is a vocal critic of President Trump, argued on Friday’s edition of The ReidOut that if the winner of the election is not determined by Jan. 20, 2021, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the third in line for the presidency, would assume the office.

“They’re trying to make it look chaotic, but there is a fail-safe mechanism built into the Constitution itself. And that is no matter how much dust [Trump] throws into the gears, at high noon on Jan. 20, 2021, if there has not been a new president elected, at that point, Nancy Pelosi, speaker of the House, becomes president of the United States,” he said on MSNBC.

The premise of Tribe’s argument is “unproven,” according to Snopes, a fact-checking website that noted Pelosi may not necessarily get the nod if an election were not decided by Jan. 20.

“All of the enablers at that point would risk committing federal felonies if they were to exercise power which they no longer have because Trump would no longer be president,” Tribe added. “That’s the fail-safe. The Constitution is not designed to self-destroy, but it’s designed to self-preserve. And the real game that I think Trump is playing is a game of making us all doubt that the system will hold.”

Trump suggested last week that delaying the election could be an option, voicing concerns about the possibility of voter fraud through mail-in ballots being relied upon in many places during the coronavirus pandemic.

“With Universal Mail-In Voting (not Absentee Voting, which is good), 2020 will be the most INACCURATE & FRAUDULENT Election in history,” the president tweeted last Thursday. “It will be a great embarrassment to the USA. Delay the Election until people can properly, securely and safely vote???”

Congress, not the president, has the power to change the date of a federal election, according to the Constitution.

“How can Barr accuse local officials of failing to uphold the rule of law when it comes to street mobs when his own inaction on Obamagate is making the DOJ appear guilty of the same failure with respect to a treasonous coup attempt?

Perhaps now would be a good time to do the right thing, Mr. Durham. Enforce the law equally to all regardless of their power or status. Put a stop to all these seditious attempts to bring about a coup d’état, and restore the rule of law now rather than later. Hopefully, this will put a stop to at least some of the attacks against our democracy.”

President Trump is a good judge of when to let the cats out of the bag.

The march on the White House may have been an attempt to seize the White House. 150 Secret Service agents were injured.

Thankfully Trump called in military sharpshooters.

It’s a delicate thing. Trust the Man... and his expert judgement.

A few...or maybe more than a few...indictments late next month would be great.An announcement that one,or more,top Obama/Biden co-conspirators are cooperating with Durham would be even better!

Well if they first they plan on doing a ton of cheating to win. In the meantime they plan on the election results beings so screwed up that they will able to install Pelosi as president for at least some amount of time. A couple of weeks of that would be enough to destroy this country fatally.

Democrats have been trying for 4 years to overthrow the president.

FACT is that, they’ve been trying to overthrow the American form of government for more than 100 years.

They had been getting close to achieving their dreams...

And then!!!!!!!!!......

DISASTER HAPPENED!!!

Trump got elected.

They went into panic and disaster-control mode. That’s what the last 4 years have been about. And now, they don’t want candidate full of malarkey to derail their chances of undoing the Trump presidency.

And that’s where their latest scheme comes in, with vote-by-mail being their last and only hope. That method is where they hope to steal the election, and knowing how crooked they are, to the point of ‘doing whatever it takes’, they stand a pretty good chance. They can’t win without fraud, so, they’re going to try to ‘win’ by using the current virus crisis and doing their vote-by-mail scheme.

There is a very big potential for fraud with mail-in voting, and the chances of democrats stealing the election are very high.

The commies best plan is to retake the Senate (which to me is almost a given this year, looking at how the Repub are cowering in fear on a daily basis).
This will make Trump a lame duck for his 2nd term.
The vote by mail is really a way to load up the Senate with commies.
You can bet your bottom dollar anti-2A legislation will be rammed through with veto overrides. Then the coup will go full force.
I have no hope for this country anymore. The people I interact with are completely clueless. It appears that only FR folks are paying attention.

Tribe assumes that Nancy Pelosi will still be Speaker of the House on Jan20, 2021. It is possible that a Republican (Mc Carthy) or another Democrat will be Speaker on that date.

There will be a new Congress with a Speaker selected. But what if the Congressional elections are still in doubt?

I was wanting to ask that question! There would be a President... UNELECTED by the people. He/she would be chosen by the dirty left... and if the republicans did that, the media and all hell would come against it.

We don’t do those kind of things and Trump has spent every day fighting against one thing after another... there has been no let up... Will Barr do something about this? will durham? will durham take some action before Nov and take the wind out of the left’s plans for a time..... We know Durham has enough to bring charges against some... talk is getting out .... so DO IT BEFORE TIME runs out.!

Greg gutfeld made a good point, he believes they will ditch Biden in a last minute of coarse planned in advance move as an October surprise. Needs to be a trifecta that no white supremists racist could fight against, a black, a women and a radical
