Ah, the last few days without political posts have been really enjoyable. Movies. Now, that’s more like it. And I’ll continue the trend going forward but I thought a short post on Debate-Gate would be okay.
This week’s news has been a steady drum beat of regime media flacks and Democrat operatives reiterating the message that for the good of Democracy Joe Biden must drop out of the presidential race. They describe the replacing of Biden with Harris or some other, younger, less white, less male candidate in exciting and intriguing ways. Obama and Clinton will preside over some kind of gameshow-like debate where these wondrous candidates will showcase for the nation their intelligence and charm. A wonderful candidate will be chosen and it will inspire the voters and Trump will go down to ignominious defeat. All we have to do is convince Joe to release his delegates.
But he doesn’t want to!
And this brings us to every talk show this week. The formula is always the same, “I love Joe Biden. He has done more for us than anyone possibly could and he is the most wonderful human being in the world and may possibly be a demi-god. But…”
And then there it is. But!
But he is a senile, doddering old fool who will lose to Donald Trump in the general election unless we scare him off the ballot or, or, or…
Or what? Because right now Joe Biden says he’s staying. And I think he knows you can’t get rid of him unless one of two things happen.
One thing would be for the Justice Department to discover that Hunter Biden has been giving the “Big Guy” ten percent. That would really work. Joe would be hauled away and the Democrat Party could remove him for cause. But would the Democrat side survive the fallout? Wouldn’t it tar the whole party just in time for the fall vote?
The second way they could get him to quit is pay him off. Probably $100 million in an off-shore account would do the trick. But who wants to give Joe Biden all that money?
So, until such time as they are willing to bite the bullet, Joe is hanging tough. And in the meantime, he puts out these interviews and press conferences where we can see just how demented he is. And his poll numbers will keep drifting down. He’s calling Kamala Harris, Donald Trump. And Zelensky, Putin. And he’s making millions into billions, into trillions and who knows what’s next. And it’s only a matter of time until he stops wearing pants. Basically, Grandpa Simpson is running the country and our allies abroad are starting to wonder whether they should start sizing up their other options.
And so, as we head into the Republican Convention and then the Democrat Convention media talking heads and congress-critters will continue running around in circles with their heads exploding all over the place. All because the polls keep getting worse and worse for Biden but he just won’t do what he’s told.
And isn’t that great.
I’m a fan of the parliamentary forms, at least to the extent that they tend to get their elections over in a month or less. Another 4 months of this? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Yeah, we have to spend our time on other things.
