Aaron Sorkin has floated the concept of eradicating President Joe Biden from workplace and changing him with retiring Republican Sen. Mitt Romney.
Sorkin wrote in the New York Times:
The actual-world downside is that no Democrat is polling considerably higher than Biden. Giving up, heroic as it could be beneath the circumstances, does not actually make us choke up.
However there are issues Democrats can do that may make individuals choke up not solely with their requires unity to cease Donald Trump in any respect prices, but in addition with their ingenuity and sense of sacrifice. So here is my suggestion to the writers room: Democrats ought to solid Republicans.
At subsequent month’s nationwide conference, Democrats ought to nominate Mitt Romney.
Nominating Mr. Romney means strolling the speak: making it clear and highly effective that the aim of this election shouldn’t be our normal elections however to forestall an unhinged man from taking energy. Mr. Romney doesn’t must be launched to voters; he’s positive to win sufficient Republican votes to win, and possibly numerous them. Double haters will develop into single haters, and Nikki Haley voters could have someplace to go. Ms. Haley disqualified herself when she supported a frontrunner who unsuccessfully tried to overthrow the federal government.
Even Mitt Romney in all probability learn this and picked the actual F.
There’s a lot craziness awash proper now that it could take a big effort to counteract the prevailing environment of insanity and panic within the present political whirlwind, however Sorkin did it. He got here up with the stupidest thought conceivable.
That is what occurs when an individual with energy and ego does not take a look at their job objectively.
Certain, Sorkin framed this as a script, however the actual world is like this:
If a non-Democrat wins the nomination, Democratic supporters will explode with rage, resulting in the collapse of your entire occasion. There’s merely no manner Democrats can help any Republican thought, particularly a rich Republican who does not agree with 95% of the Democratic agenda because the nominee.
The entire thing acquired actually foolish.
Democrats have wasted three weeks doing all the things however making an attempt to defeat Trump, and that should cease now.
