In the wake of President Joe Biden's withdrawal from the Democratic Party's 2024 race, it sure looks like Trumpworld will be very sad to see him go.
Biden on Sunday rejected his party's presidential nomination and endorsed his vice president, Kamala Harris, for the top ticket instead.
His announcement sparked angry outbursts from former President Donald Trump and his supporters, some of whom called the sudden switch in candidates a "coup."
"So, we are forced to spend time and money on fighting Crooked Joe Biden, he polls badly after having a terrible debate, and quits the race," Trump wrote on his social-media platform, Truth Social. "Now we have to start all over again."
Trump added that he thought the GOP should be "reimbursed for fraud."
Ian Miles Cheong, a conservative blogger and friend of Elon Musk, reposted a screenshot of Trump's post, saying: "His campaign was forced to waste money against Biden for as long as it did only for the Democrats to pull the rug out from under him by pulling Joe out of the race."
Trump raises an excellent point: his campaign was forced to waste money against Biden for as long as it did only for the Democrats to pull the rug out from under him by pulling Joe out of the race. This, if anything, is a form of cheating. pic.twitter.com/vW1nzxSagW

Madison Cawthorn, who used to be a North Carolina congressman, echoed Trump's demand for a refund from the Biden-Harris campaign.
"Someone sue the Bidden Harris campaign for a refund and request a preliminary injunction," Cawthorn wrote on X.
"That campaign should not be allowed to spend a dollar on Kamala's behalf until this is fully litigated," he added.
Trump's former senior advisor Stephen Miller also went on Fox News and raged about how the Republican Party had "spent tens of millions of dollars running against Joe Biden."
"Now they just woke up one morning and said, 'Never mind, we're canceling the entire primary, we're getting rid of our candidate,'" he added.

With Biden stepping down, Trump is now the oldest person from the two major parties to run for president. And to be sure, Trump's camp may well be incensed because they've spent months — and a considerable amount of airtime at the Republican National Convention — hammering Biden for his advanced age, an argument they can no longer use with Harris, who's 59.
But Biden stepping down probably wasn't a complete surprise for the GOP. The Trump camp had anti-Harris attack ads at the ready, which they released within an hour of Biden backing out.
Signs that the GOP has been prepping for a Harris vs. Trump showdown have also been there for weeks.
Following Biden's disastrous CNN debate performance in June, Trump posted a video on his Truth Social account on July 3 discussing the possibility of running against Harris rather than Biden.
"I got him out the race, and that means we have Kamala," Trump said in the clip.
Trump was also already trialing nasty nicknames for Harris long before Biden quit, including "Laffin' Kamala Harris" and "Cackling Copilot Kamala Harris."
And on Wednesday, the Trump-Vance campaign said it wouldn't agree to a vice-presidential debate until Harris picked "her running mate."
Representatives for Harris and Trump didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider sent outside regular business hours.

Forced by whom?
You poor guy. Such a shame! We feel really sorry for you.
Then Trump should write the GOP a big, fat check.
late night shows will be brutal to trump and maga this week...
I'm looking forward to it.
watching the king of personal attacks getting broadsided with facts for the next 100 days will be hilarious...

You have to wonder if there is anyone delusional enough to actually believe any of this. Judging from some of the comments we see coming out of Trumpworld, maybe.
a video took him out of office...
OH....right! Young man in a wheel chair was either drinking and acting a fool or....?
I can name at least 5 right here at NT
Yeah they should be upset. This gives the Ds a fighting chance to stop Trump from securing the powers of the presidency.
You cannot make this shit up. The level of irony and stupidity is staggering.
The scary thing is that it actually seems to work.
Yup.
We have heard some really stupid shit come out of campaigns over the years, but none even remotely comparable to Trump. Trump consistently takes "really stupid shit" to whole new levels.
Because Donald ("mothball") Trump is petty and small. Mister "Me-Me-Me" can think and then mouth such things. He has taken the so-called 'soaring eagles' in the GOP and clipped its wings to become flightless. Only time will tell how long the GOP wants to be enchanted by staring into the viewfinder of Donald ("mothball")-the Enchanter.
his quest for false equivalence to his many shortcomings is endless...
He's obviously become senile-- his mind is not working well!
What the Republicans should do (if they want to win) is replace him with a younger man (or woman she/her) -- one who is still able to think clearly!
And it goes without saying-- in order to stick to the lofty values of the party, if they choose a she/her/they that person must meet some high qualifications:
1. She/her/they must not be childless!
2. And equally important-- she/her/they must not possess a cat! (and perhaps that should be expanded to say "a cat...or any similar animal").
How come the Democrats weren't looking out for Trump's best interests? That was outrageous misconduct by those bad Democrats! They ought to be made to pay after forcing Trump's campaign to waste all that money.
Agreed!
And in addition, JD Vance is certainly a detriment to the ticket (obviously the guys a total nut case). So the Dems should also be fined because they forced the Republicans to pick such a looney as a Vice Presidential candidate!
selfish bastards!
This is pretty funny. There is no legal recourse to recoup money the RNC spend on themselves. They can file a complaint with the FEC, but that's liable to just get them laughed at during late night comedy intros and X memes.
The current composition of the FEC is two Democrats and two Republicans thanks to Senate Republicans' intransigence, so nothing ever gets done by the FEC anyways. Even if they could do something (and I can't imagine they would have any power to do anything in this situation), it would be unlikely in the extreme that they would.
That seems inevitable just based on the stupidity of their comments already.
I can see a complaint filed on how Harris spends donation money going forward. A different idea from the RNC recouping money they already spend. It still won't go anywhere. Harris' name was on all the Biden/Harris campaign paperwork.
I can foresee the Republicans doing lots of idiotic things. Given their track record to date, nothing they do would surprise me in the least.
It's called creating "chaos on the field of play." And, the democrats had better be prepared and nimble enough to separate the real from the dazzling bull and images that will be flung out from the center (or rear) of Trumpists :
Dazzling Bullshit
This image conveys and communicates NOTHING : It's only beauty is in the eyes of a beholder.
I used to think that several prominent republicans are totally weird. But I'm beginning to think its more than a few.
Way more.
I'm anxiously awaiting the proliferation of racist and misogynist maga bumper stickers and flags to appear.
I'm sure you won't have to wait very long.
As opposed to 2016? My neighborhood was awash in Trump signs, flags and small billboards similar to what you see on election day. "Enthusiasts" with Trump flags all over their pick up trucks.
2020, not so much.
2024 two of my neighbors have little 12 x8 signs that say Vote Republican, there doesn't seem to be
a Trump flag anywhere in Tarrant or Fort Worth these days.
there's a significant absence of trump flags on the trucks and beach carts compared to previous years.
I really love this. It's worth posting it again. Donald Trump must be the laughingstock of the universe. No exaggeration.
107 days until the rigged election chorus performs, followed by dozens of frivolous lawsuits...
The smell of fear.
Trump knows that if he loses, the prosecutions are on. He is probably already figuring out his November 6th quick exit plan to somewhere that doesn't have an extradition treaty with the U.S.
russia is out, unless trump can find a ground level ranch style mansion, without any handles on the doors...
Or more to the point, Candidate Harris and her team must be nimble and wise enough to remember whom they are dealing with: Donald 'the viper.' He will lie, he will politically care a hidden 'knife' in his boot to gut her politically with if she forgets for one moment (the right moment) who he is!
August/September/October SURPRISES may be underway. . . . BE READY FOR ANYTHING!
Piss poor planning leads to piss poor performance!
Donald is not communicating back and forth with foreign leaders for naught: They are carrying messages back and forth, in my opinion.
she's dealt with hardened criminals before...
Let's just say. . . now is not the time to get 'rusty' and out of shape. Sooner or later, Donald is going to label her as weak, based solely of her gender. It's the Archie Bunkerism-style of fighting. He will use her sex against her. . .unless she makes it clear that she take any political 'punch' he throws.
I think Harris is a lot more intelligent then you give her credit for!
Haley offered this during her campaign:
I hope she turns out to be prescient.
haley is now feeling the equivalent to the remorse of a drunken 1 night stand, in a frat house...
Haley is a major disappointment. One always holds out hope for the very few politicians who might show integrity. One is often disappointed too.
why would anyone completely sell out their character and abandon their integrity to support someone they despise, knowing first hand that person would never appreciate it and then use it against them. I don't get it and never will.
I doubt she cares what Trump thinks about her. It’s more about how the rest of his cult thinks about her. To stay in politics she needs some relationships to stay loosely connected. Otherwise she’s just another Liz Cheney.
I'd say her political career is over. if and when the GOP ever comes to it's senses, any association with trump will be poison and her groveling makes it worse. even some of her campaign supporters have turned on her.
Part of the problem is that she's from South Carolina. If she ever wants for any office in that state she got to support Trump (and other republican candidates).
Indeed. The root of the problem is the GOP electorate ... the Trump cult portion.
I thought one radical leftist was the same as another.
They'll be OK. Elon Musk is going to pay for everything going forward.
not according to him...
There was a republican strategist on this Monday AM Pacific time, saying that the Trumpists researchers have been doing "oppo" against V. P. Harris for . . .years. . . that it's in the can about some of her cases as DA and there will be "testimonials" from people in ads whom feel she let them down as a DA. . . even some of her abortion stances will be challenged over the decades.
That's the way politics is.
But IMO Harris is a lot more intelligent (and a lot more competent!) than many people give her credit for!
That is how this idiot is spending his time.
If I was a Republican I would certainly be doubling down on Trump. He's totally rational and not the least bit insane.

Donald is petty; trumpists are narrow-minded and small. And, they love being so.
You know-- you might be right! Thanks for posting that.
Fighting battles in a war that's been over!
Joe Biden's candidacy for the office of president is over...
They should have put a cape on Trump too. Obviously this is who you want to see as PotUS.
No, but I might buy a few and give them to my more liberal relatives who take themselves way too seriously.
Or how about a novel Halloween costume? That would be much more interesting-- and as a doddering old man perhaps it would win him approval from the more youthful he/she/thems (AKA "children").
So your relatives are different than you (because based on your posts here-- obviously you do not take politics very seriously!
Actually I don't. But it is entertaining listening (or reading) those that do.
This coin is also available for friends and associates you don't like very much.
Just curious-- what message are you trying to convey with that "Trump...Fight" graphic?
Perhaps trying to indicate that Trump hasn't dropped out of the race, that he's continuing the fight to win the presidency? (Or perhaps people feel that showing him with a raised fist (yelling "fight") is shown to convince us that he will win? Or to "prove" he going to remain in the race?
(I could be wrong, but my guess is that most of us here know that)
That you can get the coin for less than 10 dollars each and they would make great stocking stuffers

CNN's Pamela Brown is in this morning for Wolf Blitzer she plays a clip of Donald ("mothballs") telling his weekend audience repeatedly that if he loses this election in November it will be because the liberals cheated (ad nauseam).
Pamela Brown is 'livid' and calls it out: As Donald said that in 2016 (he won); he said it in 2020 (he lost) and there as January 6 (bull) that took place, and now he is saying it ahead of the 2024 election. . . and, that is when it hit me: women, mothers, are sick of this SHIT from a delusional Donald "mothballs" - as Donald can get a lot of their children killed in a 'coming conflict or war' over his bold-faced, ridiculous, lies!
