If replacing Old Joe bidet really is the Deep State's plan, I think it's a very foolish one.
Even hardcore demonrat loyalists are going to gag at the sight of The Party thrashing around and grabbing a replacement from a short list of unknown quantities and unpopular nonentities at the last minute. At the very least, it would (rightly) be perceived as a sign of disorganization and weakness.
At worst, voters would say "This is the party that gave us four years of this incompetent weakling and held him up as a shining example while the country spiralled down the drain? Why the hell should any of their fresh picks look any more encouraging?"

Yeah, it's a really stupid idea.
They'll proably try it anyway.
Furthermore, what will they do with all of the pre-printed illegal ballots?
