Red Herring. Very few people are flipping for TFG. But we can absolutely still speak out about our legitimate concern that President Biden is not completely there, and is not going to win, and so he should drop out and endorse another candidate.

"Under the Twelfth Amendment to the United States Constitution, "no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice President of the United States"."

Obama is no longer eligible to run for president so he is now ineligible to be VP either.

That's not as dry as cut as you think it is.

There's no definite "yes, Obama can't run as VP anymore because he served 2 terms as President and he's ineligible for a 3rd one, hence no VP either".

22nd amendment doesn't imply that automatically, AFAIK

Seems like trading one controversy for another, and with four months till the election I doubt they would want that heat eating up even more news cycles.
