It’s Getting Serious Now: L.A. Times Kicks Off the Dems’ 'Dump-Harris' Movement
PJ Media ^ | 08/17/2023 | Robert Spencer

Posted on 08/17/2023 7:57:01 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

The people in charge know that Old Joe Biden is only going to get more embarrassing. They also know that Kamala Harris is even worse, while being arrogant enough to resist accepting the role of figurehead and mouthpiece that Old Joe has taken on so readily. And so now, with 2024 coming fast and leftists rubbing their hands with glee at the possibility that they could be facing a candidate who is campaigning from a prison cell, the search for a viable replacement has taken on new urgency. The Los Angeles Times on Monday became the first major cog in the left’s propaganda machine to come out for dumping Harris and replacing her with a more viable candidate. It won’t be the last.

The Times’ George Skelton knows that the left, unlike the right, never turns on its own, and that a public acknowledgement of Harris’ manifest incompetence would be damaging not just for her, but for Old Joe himself. After all, the putative commander-in-chief has repeatedly praised her and declared as recently as May that she “hasn’t gotten the credit she deserves.”

Even if the senescent corruptocrat in the Oval Office departs for good to his taxpayer-funded walled Delaware beach house, the repudiation of his heir apparent would cast a shadow on the good judgment of our self-appointed moral superiors and guardians of acceptable opinion, and we can’t have that. And so Harris must be moved out of the way in a manner that somehow looks like a promotion or, at the very least not, like a demotion. Skelton has an idea.

Skelton writes that Biden “has a problem. So does Vice President Kamala Harris. Sen. Dianne Feinstein is a problem. There’s a solution for all of this.” Then, with unusual forthrightness for a leftist propagandist, Skelton proceeds to throw Harris decisively under the bus: “Biden’s problem is Harris. She’s a burden — a drag on his reelection prospects.” That’s true, but Skelton doesn’t mention the other obvious fact: Biden’s problem is Biden. His corruption, his mendacity, his dementia, and his personal nastiness are becoming increasingly difficult even for the establishment media to ignore. But first things first, and Skelton apparently believes that the first thing that must be done is get Harris out of the way.

They need to send her butt back to one of her homes. Jamaica, India or Canada. She only came to America for a free education and to hang with Willie and I don’t mean Willie Nelson.

Leave being VP to accept a demotion to your previous job? Not gonna happen.

They missed their chance when they appointed Jackson to SCOTUS.

But Democrats are all about being liberal, not racist or sexist or anything-ist.

Wouldn’t it be racist and sexist, to try to get rid of Harris???

I know nothing will be said publicly, but wonder if something will happen behind the scenes to get rid of her.

Maybe she will say she wants to leave and spend more time with the family. She needs more time with the stepdaughter and help her with her fashion career.

sarcasm.

Was Spengler Right After All?

The only thing that the current, deliberately orchestrated onslaught against culture has in common with Spengler’s diagnosis, a century ago, of the demise of Western culture, is precisely that: the controlled demise of culture.

Except that, for Spengler, this was an inescapable process that unfolded in the course of centuries (going back to the European Renaissance).

Whereas at present we are witnessing a hubristic, megalomaniacal attempt to torpedo both Western and other cultures for the sake of retaining financial and hence, political control over world affairs.

It would have to be under duress. DiFi doesn’t want to be sent packing, and Kamala would only take it if there were no other option for her. So unless we lose a Supreme Court Justice, I don’t see this happening.

That will be great optics. Trashing biden's own pick and the historic first woman of color VP.

But given that we are soviet now and elections are a farce, why would he worry.

I think it’s telling that the first to write this is the LA Times. I believe they’re trying to clear the decks for Newsom. (Being Mr. California and all).

“Harris is a drag on the ticket, no doubt.”

The democrat agenda is a drag on the ticket.

This still comes back to my earlier comments, The Dems are Stuck where the VP is concerned. Joey’s mental abilities, not like he had much to start with, are fading faster than they planned.

The Chaos around the VP will be fun to watch. The Dems may just implode in the next 14-15 months. IFF the Repubs had any brains they would just keep poking at the Dems and the VP. Death by 1000 cuts. Really get them spun up.

NOTICE, all the Trump indictments are a major distraction from the VP Fluster Cuck that the Dems have to deal with!!!!!
