[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]More details on this Montana thing - where are the MAGAs who supposedly hate when candidates are anointed?[twitter]https://x.com/burgessev/status/2029688045344100627?s=46&t=kf1qYlCXQnKgUhJWEIu2vg[/twitter][/quote]

I’m one who thinks voters should have a say but after what democrats did when Biden dropped out I am at the point where I can’t muster any outrage about this. 
You really have no room to complain. [/quote]

Biden dropped out. There was no mechanism for a "mini primary" or any other solution. Harris was the vice President and legally controlled the campaign war chest. All of the other potential candidates endorsed her with a day or two of the Sunday announcement. If the public felt like Biden could still handle the job, he would have continued to run, but that was not the case and at that late date, there wasn't another mechanism, other than a brokered convention, which would have been a nightmare.[/quote]
Agreed...the Democratic party screwed this up bigly. And Harris herself was in an incredibly difficult situation - she likely knew more than most how much Biden had declined, but there was no way she could enter a primary against her own boss. The decision to step down had to come from Biden and until his debate against Trump his common sense couldn't compete with his ego.

The Montana thing though - this was premeditated. There's no such thing as a "vice senator" but Daines decided he needed one.[/quote]
