Since this is coming from CNN it's likely the Deep State is buttering up the public for a surprise, unannounced candidate this August.

[verum ago]

Yep, the sudden and universal change in media tenor regarding Biden (they got their marching orders) seems to suggest we’re in the groundwork-laying phase.

the set-up

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

Think of Bobby Kennedy in 1968 and Gary Hart in 1987.

Pollutico put out a piece the other day on the Dem ‘Plan B’.

Yeah, Biden needs to hire a pudding taster. He about to drop over dead.

President Potato Head is not long for this world because his growing dementia has rendered him no longer fit-for-purpose and he must be tossed aside. The fact that he doesn’t refuses to leave will force the Uniparty to ease him into the next world.

[Zathras]

The MSM is floating options for kicking Biden to the curb.

What if a political convention had trouble deciding to nominate a man or a woman....

Why, they’d nominate someone that had traits of both.

setting the table

The party’s national committee makes the decision. George McGovern’s original running mate dropped out and the DNC confirmed McGovern’s choice of Sargent Shriver to replace him. It’s not so hard if it’s the VP candidate has to be replaced. It’s harder if it’s the presidential candidate.

[Red Badger]

[Political Junkie Too]

If the candidate dies after being formally nominated at the convention, the party leaders get to name the replacement without further consensus from the rank and file.

” if, for some reason, Biden left the race”

I cannot imagine that happening. He’s young, healthy, robust, vital and runs rings around everybody. Strongest, healthiest, smartest and sharpest candidate in decades.

[bigbob]

They think it’s like turning a battleship to convince the public that the Biden story they’ve been pushing is malarkey so they’re starting slowly to prepare democrats for the inevitable.

[DPMD]

Or else they’re engaging in assassination porn.

If the candidate is a dem, he still wins the vote and the spouse takes the spot.

If a republican, a dem takes over.

Prepping for the Torricelli Manuever re: Biden.

"Never mind who you voted for plebes, we'll pick who we want as our figurehead to rule over you."

[BradyLS]

Most folks are thinking Biden. I don’t put it past the Swamp Creatures that they’re thinking Trump.

[Buttons12]

What happens? Well, it makes headlines. CNN writes them and hopes people will pay attention to CNN.

Democrat's top choices include:

• Olsteen church transgendered shooter
• Jean Carroll who successfully defeated Trump in a kangaroo court.
• Taylor Swift who won the Superbowl.
• Any of several Hamas leaders, living or dead
• Any of several Iranian generals, living or dead
• Xi Jinping
• the Dallas zoo monkey thief, he's certified as incompetent so he has that going for him,
• Samali first Omar
• AOC, a horse is a horse unless of course..

Suppose the candidate passed on November 1st
