We have a convention for a reason. Biden says he's dropping out, his delegates are released to vote for a different candidate.

Someone nominates Mark Kelly for the top of the ticket, the delegates vote him into the nomination, he accepts, and Trump loses.

It's a pretty simple plan, and rests on the assumption that Biden and Harris can put country and party ahead of their pride.

I think Mark Kelly would be a safe bet for the nomination. I heard he was already approached about it
