Guest Contribution by Gregg Updike Boy, does the MSM (D) and the DNC really have to tie themselves up in knots in their attempt to thread the political needle in this election cycle.
The Democratic leadership and the left are users, plain and simple. They use loyal donkeys to suit their purpose at the moment and dump them like yesterday’s trash when their ‘use by date’ expires. Here are some examples:
Al Franken was propped up and helped over the finish line in Minnesota by the DNC’s Voter Fraud Division in his defeat of Norm Coleman (R) to gain a blue senate seat. Then, to provide credibility and show they were all in on the #MeToo (bowel) movement, they dumped him as he became expendable for several reasons:
To give the appearance that Democrats care about women. The left had to sacrifice a politico along with Harvey Weinstein – another operative who was dumped after being milked for all he was worth. To clear the field for his co-senator – Amy Klobuchar – to run for president; remember he was being touted as a possible serious presidential contender at the time. To knock out a candidate who was an easy target so that lightweight Senator Kristin Gillibrand (D) NY, would have less competition in her bid. I single her out because she showed phony righteous indignation to Franken’s behavior, but not so much to Bill Clinton and his enabling wife and others, when it could have mattered. Gillibrand took an easy opportunity to end a competitor’s bid. The blue senate seat was safe since the Minnesota governor was a Democrat and appointed an even more radical senator. Would Franken have been cashiered so quickly if the Minnesota governor had been a Republican? I think not. Franken would have been defended to the hilt like all their other reprobates. Other examples:
The Democratic Party used the new, “bright, clean, and articulate” (quoting Joe Biden) Barack Hussein Obama to sandbag Hillary in 2008 – they got a bonus when the Republicans ran the pathetic “hero” John McCain and got their empty suit figurehead elected twice.
They used Bernie Sanders in 2016, originally to show that Bill’s Wife could win in a semi-competitive race. However, when it became way too competitive, Sanders had to be sandbagged AND bought off to protect Obama’s third term, and because it was “Her turn”.
As all of this year’s hopefuls flamed out, the Head Honchos of the DNC were forced to go with the ‘steady’ safe warhorse Joe after trying to gut his chances with some planted anti Biden stories early in his run last year. As every Democratic hopeful – except for Sanders – proved to be exceedingly bad and dropped out, Biden hung around and became the last viable choice to be used to take out the communist Sanders and to save the down ballot races. Pocahontas was also used to intercourse Sander’s strong bid by staying in the race just long enough to split his radical base for Gaffe O. Joe to ‘win’ big on Super Tuesday.
Gaffe O. Joe was used to successfully take out the sure loser in order to prevent a down ballot wipeout. Now, with the economic devastation wrought by the China virus, Trump is seen as possibly beatable. That being their current perception, the DNC and MSN (D) are now desperately searching for a viable replacement and not just a ballot filler like Mondale was in 1984, to run against Trump. Choosing some creditable, appealing, and capable vice president nominee to garner enough votes for a victory is just not going to cut it – no one votes for a Vice President (even Michelle Obama) on the come.
This means the propaganda wing of the MSNDNC has to strategically get in gear to force Gaffe O. Joe to leave on his own accord, and not anger the entire Democratic voting base. How best to do that?
They know they can’t use Hunter and the Ukraine and China connections because too many Deep Staters will also be taken down – Government Scandals can only be used against GOP Presidents. That amendment is in the DC DS private constitution. They have to find another angle to get Biden to leave. They have carried his gaffes and, to some degree, successfully hidden is intellectual deficiencies and mental decline for so long, it would be a hard sell to now use it against him.
However, they can carefully and gradually introduce a decades old sex scandal into the equation, but keep it on the down low, simmering, on a credible – to some, but relatively minor ‘news’ outlet – Politico. That way, if it is determined that Trump is invincible, we’ll go with plan “A” and let Biden be Mondale the second.
However, if Trump is perceived by DNC internal polling as beatable in the next several months, Plan “B” will be activated if the DNC think they have a viable (Mark Cuban? Andrew Cuomo? Gary Newsom?) replacement. Plan “B” will be launched with many “Breaking News” stories that will come from an exhaustive media ‘investigation’ of the “Politico” reports on then Senator Biden’s sexual misconduct, demotion and firing against and of Tara Reade back in 1993.
Gaffe O. Joe’s campaign will have been effectively scuttled. The Democratic Party will have ‘real’ evidence as to how much they care about women. They will then get to pick who they want to run against Trump, since there won’t any time to have a democratic type primary process. Just like in the good old days, the Head Honchos in smoke filled rooms will get to choose the candidate. This is all setting up well for plan “”B to be at least partially successful in that it could at least prevent a major fracturing of their base and gain a lot of points as a party who cares about the woman.
That is all.
Are you referring to “Put Covid-19 into nursing homes” Cuomo?
Additionally, life isn't "Mission Impossible" where everyone's moves are accurately predicted. Humans do all sorts of crazy things that cannot be predicted. I don't think the Dems are clever enough to see in the future.
I totally agree. Announcing he has a serious health issue that would prevent him from running would give them a perfect out. His primary voters would not question the decision as it would have "just come to light" so would still vote for the eventual nominee. There would be universal sympathy for him- especially if they announce something like Alzheimers.
See tagline. I’ve always said it will be a brokered convention.
Even if Creepy Uncle Joe does it make it to the convention, there is no guarantee he won’t make it past the nomination process.
If he is nominated? It will only be because Hillary or Michelle will be his running mate. Which will be a clear signal to the entire world that Hillary or Michelle will be the real president.
Gee, ya think so? The Democrats are desperate to get rid of the Handsie Hair Sniffer and THEY are the ones who dug up a 27 year old change. These drip drip drips are warnings to Jill Biden to take Joey home or put him in a home. She is evidently deluding herself into thinking they won’t dump Joey or is holding out for something. Maybe she believes they will retake the Senate and Joey and Dollar Hunter will be spared an indictment. This will be fun to watch, but those who think this woman came forward on her own are way behind the curve. This will be fun to watch because it is a “Tails Trump wins Heads Biden loses.”
I think they will throw him under the bus, but claim it is a medical condition that causes him to withdraw.
Then the fun begins. Do they screw Bernie again? Put Hillary in again? Cuomo? You can’t trust a Sherman oath from a Dem when the party calls. What if Biden plays spoiler by naming a prospective VP ahead of the party coup against him?

Yeah. ‘’Mr. Brute Fascia’’. (Ugly Face). What a world class dirt bag he is.
Holder is as DC Deep State as the come. Nobody else compares on that front.
Obama's "wingman" is really the only person who has the bona fides as "the third Obama term."
