Donald Trump and his fellow Republicans are panicking over Joe Biden dropping out of the 2024 race.

J.D. Vance has joined the chorus of conservatives who have begun claiming that President Joe Biden’s decision to withdraw from the 2024 presidential race constitutes a so-called “coup” in the Democratic Party.

In an interview filmed on Saturday with Fox News’s Jesse Watters, a clip of which aired on Fox & Friends Monday morning, Watters asked former President Donald Trump and his newly minted running mate, Vance, the new question plaguing Republicans: “Is it a coup against Joe Biden?” Both of them fumbled their answers.

“Uh, sort of,” Trump said unsure, looking over to Vance for explanation.

    I wonder if tRump chose Vance because it kinda sounds like Pence. Easier to remember.

    I was joking just a few days ago that all those folks still flying “Trump - Pence” signs from 2020 or the really faded ones from 2016 just need to change the “PE” to “VA” and they’re good for another 4 years of sun bleaching.
