This was always the plan. They will contest any replacement and then only Trump will be on the ballot. AOC tried to warn you fucking people. This is why Biden needed to go over a year ago and the PARTY said “fuck you guys” until it was too hard to fucking ignore.

    Election law expert Richard Hasen wrote that there is “no credence” to the notion that the Democratic Party could not legally replace Biden on the ticket, as he is not the nominee yet – the nominating process generally takes place during the Democratic National Convention.

    “Joe Biden is not the party’s nominee now, and states generally point to the major party’s nominee as the one whose name is on the ballot,” he wrote in a piece earlier this month.

    I think I’ll believe the expert.

      Hah! Do you really think Republicans let experts tell them what to think? Their ignorance is better than anyone’s knowledge!

        Ha! According to the supreme court, Biden could explain all of this to Johnson and the rest of the republicans using guns.
