Joe Biden urged to resign to make Kamala Harris president

Former communications director for the US vice president Jamal Simmons has called on Joe Biden to resign within the next 30 days to allow Kamala Harris to become president.

During his appearance on CNN's State of the Union on Sunday, Simmons suggested making Kamala Harris the president as a transitional figure.

The move, he said, would allow Harris to assume the presidency before January, making her the first female president of the United States.

"He could resign the presidency in the next 30 days, make Kamala Harris president of the United States," Simmons said on the air.

“It would dominate the news at a point where Democrats have to learn drama and transparency and doing things that the public wanna see is the time.

“This is the moment for us to change the entire perspective of how Democrats operate.”

Presidents are voted in by the American people not chosen by a party. Learn your lesson.

[liquidpebbles]

Imagine that, the first female president in the USA that nobody voted for. That's a bold move.

[tamimrktz]

Even Joe Biden's judgment is not that impaired.

[oldchicago]

Jill won't let him. She knows their party screwed him enough.

[moonlightfishin]

She is not qualified for four years or 1 month.

[lynncolbert]

No, we do not want Kamala as president for a week, a month, or a day.

[joemontano]

The country was loud and clear - *WE DO NOT WANT KAMALA ANYWHERE NEAR THE OVAL OFFICE.*

[Gee-gzob]

What a load of crock. These people are the worst forms of humanity, no integrity, no honor.

[rebeccapaquette]

Gee, whatever happened to accepting the results of free and fair elections, Democrats?

[Conniev]

Stupidest thing I've ever heard no wonder they lost

Wrong headed idea! The presidency of the United States should NEVER be considered as a consolation prize, or a prize to promote any social agenda. It should NEVER be “passed” to someone because it is their turn. This mindset cheapens the office, and disregards the will, and the voice of the American people. The position of “Leader of the Free World” carries huge weight, and Commander in Chief of our Armed Forces deserves to be treated with utmost respect. Our government was set up with the idea that our leaders would be “servant leaders” - statesmen. They are supposed to serve the will of the people, not any social agenda. Qualifications and merit do matter. The majority of the American people want a president that will keep them safe and secure, PERIOD.

No need for him to resign. He can just declare himself to be a woman and US will have its first woman president.

That is pathetic. The people voted! We voted against KH for president. Listen to the people!

[jasonjackson]

This party has become such a joke and so detached from reality! And this is why they lost

[tabathafoster]

What is wrong with the Democrats? The people voted not to elect Kamala as President. No one voted for her to be the Presidential Nominee. Going against the willl of the people has not worked out for the Democrats. Kamala was given the VP position, given the Presidential Nominee and now they want to give her the Presidency? It is getting ridiculous and will give more reason to vote against the Democrats in the next 4 year election

[AndrewCarthy]

This would clearly show the contempt the Democrats have for the country and people.
She was not even suitable to be the VP.

[gutsbiker]

Never mind that the American people just rejected Kamala Harris as president.

[Michael-ukpj]

"Things that the public will want to see" I think the public voted strongly against seeing that!

[marywolfe]

This has nothing to do with what is good for the country.

[takudzwamashamba]

This move will make her the most hater person in America for the foreseeable future
