Trump’s The One Who Should Drop Out After The Presidential Debate, Says Ex-Prosecutor

After the conclusion of a recent jury trial in New York City where he was found guilty on all counts, Donald Trump is now a convicted felon. Though he has talked up predictable hopes of reversing the outcome on appeal, it currently stands, with a jury having accepted allegations from prosecutors in Manhattan that Trump falsified business records in connection with hush money from before the 2016 election for a woman named Stormy Daniels.

And Trump remains on track to be Republicans’ nominee for president, which will be formalized with convention proceedings next month in Milwaukee.

Trump and incumbent President Joe Biden, who are expected to meet for an electoral rematch later this year, met Thursday night in Georgia for their first debate of this cycle, and Biden — who, some said, had recently been suffering from a cold — drew ire for what was characterized as a weak showing on the stage. But that commentary glossed over the egregious nature of Trump’s own campaign for president, as former federal prosecutor Elizabeth de la Vega laid it out.

“Biden isn’t going to drop out and it would be a disaster if he did. It’s stupid to push for this if you want Dems to win. Call for the corrupt, ignorant malignant narcissist to drop out, the one convicted of 34 felonies & facing dozens more, the one who lies every time he speaks,” she wrote.

No matter a bunch of hullabaloo, there is no specific indication that Biden, advanced in age as he is, actually will step aside, leaving Democrats’ impending presidential nomination to somebody else like, perhaps, Kamala Harris.

CNN, meanwhile, also faced criticism for not providing live fact-checking as they hosted the Tuesday debate, letting some of Trump’s familiar falsehoods go relatively unchecked.
