Missouri Senate candidate says he'll force Biden to replace Kamala Harris with Trump -- then resign

[Soph0571]

On Thursday, Rep. Billy Long (R-MO), a candidate for Senate in Missouri and an avid promoter of election conspiracy theories, put forward a bizarre new plan on Twitter for how he will get former President Donald Trump reinstated to office.

Specifically, he said that he will get Vice President Kamala Harris to resign, have President Joe Biden appoint Trump as vice president in her place, and then have Biden himself resign, putting Trump first in line to ascend to the presidency.

He did not specify how any of the steps of this would work, including how he would get Harris or Biden to resign or how he would persuade Biden to choose Trump as his vice president.

Has everyone on the right swallowed the qray qray pill? I think they must have - I do not think that there are any sane ones left at all. Any one with any sense of duty, morality or ethics looked left and right and did one after 2016 - and this is what they are left with qray qray to the bottom of their qrazy hate filled hearts.

1. This is one of the dumbest ideas I can remember seeing...

and if it's not just a lame SNL parody this asshole should be slapped down hard.

40. improvement

I mean, technically it would work according to the way the Constitution is written if he could pull it off.

That's at least one step better than the loons who just claim that Trump will be reinstated or claim that they'll get the 2020 election invalidated then have Trump sworn in without him winning anyting.

41. DUMBER STILL is his reason why mass shootings are happening in the nation -

Are you sitting down ? Because he said the reason for these mass shooting is . . . . A B O R T I O N.

2. I've got a four year-old grandson with a similar

over expansive imagination. Maybe the candidate needs a nap.

[Ilsa]

10. I'm ready for TFG & his supporters to take a nap... a dirt nap. nt

24. I second that...

[Tickle]

3. Lol

You forgot your sarcastic emoji lol 😆 or did the idiot Republican really say that

[bucolic_frolic]

4. It's not qray, it's a strategy to normalize similar schemes and move thinking in their direction

[GoCubsGo]

17. Yep, and it works quite well when

a substantial part of the population doesn't have a damn clue as to how their government work. The same people who believe this guy's nonsense are the same ones who believe the President controls gas prices and baby formula stock.

21. More Schedule 1 drugs circulating in repuglikan ciircles, I see.

How else to explain these bizarre delusional fantasies?

[Postal Grunt]

29. Maybe..

Maybe he was one of those people who took the bad brown acid at Woodstock.

6. As idiotic as this is,

it does illustrate the arrogance of the authoritarian right, the right’s contempt for democracy and the will of the people, and the willingness of conservatives to establish the tyranny of Republican minority rule.

I always look for a positive to say about people I don’t know.

[lastlib]

22. you know, he does have a point.....

A stocking cap might hide it........

38. I believe in this case the correct word is a...

26. Using his logic, I could have won the Indy 500

All I needed was to have one of the drivers resign and I would replaced him. Then the other 32 drivers/cars withdraw from the race.

27. I repeat myself.

28. Y'all realize Ol Billy is dumber than a box of hair, right?

He's a joke even here in Missouri. He only gets elected because he has a (R) behind his name.

He's doing poorly in the Senate polls so he has to say something stupid and controversial. Greitens has a reputation for controversy, McCloskey is an idiot who should also be serving time and Hartzler recently sent out flyers in the Fourth posing with weapons. Old Billy is begging for some attention.

Btw-he can dish it but can't take it. I know from experience.

[Midnight Writer]

31. This works. He is way down in the polls. I predict he will get an upward bump from this stunt.

He's getting his name out there: people are talking about him.

[Sneederbunk]

32. Very Billy Long-worthy

[AZLD4Candidate]

34. Sign says it all. Just replace Frank.

[Demsrule86]

35. So now, they admit Trump won't win an election...good news.

[allegorical oracle]

36. Sounds like a cry for Civics classes pleading to make a comeback. nt

[Martin68]

37. What drugs are they insane GOPers on? They send crazier by the hour.

We have a mental health crisis crisis in this nation, and it is called the GOP.

[Marcuse]

39. Harris won't resign. She has to be prepared to do what Pence wouldn't.

if necessary.

[LiberatedUSA]

42. Wow, MO's meth problem must really be out of hand...

…if our (Missouri’s) candidates for Senator are getting their ideas for office while on it.
