Republican VP nominee Vance insists Biden must resign if not seeking second term

Sen. J.D. Vance, R-Ohio, has pushed the argument that a President Biden unfit to seek a second term is also unfit to remain in office for the last months of his current administration.

“Everyone calling on Joe Biden to stop running without also calling on him to resign the presidency is engaged in an absurd level of cynicism,” Vance wrote on social media platform X.

“If you can’t run, you can’t serve,” Vance stressed. “He should resign now.”

Vance joins the calls from other Republicans who over the past week have tried to make the push to get Biden off the ticket one and the same as getting Biden out of office.

Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., on Friday argued that “if he’s not going to be their nominee because he's not up to it, how can he be our president for the next six months?"

“If there's something wrong with you that doesn't allow you to run for president, how can you still be there as president?” Rubio told Politico. “If they're going to remove him as nominee, they’ve got to remove him as president, and that's really bad for our country."
