And right now poor creepy old Joe is too old, too white and, well, not quite ‘woke’ enough to carry today’s progressivism to victory.
He kept hinting that he was actually going to run and refusing to bow out. And to make matters worse, he quickly established a massive lead in the polls that continues to this day. But the Democrats don’t want an old white man winning the nomination again, so something had to be done. Trust me… this was no accident. It was orchestrated among some of the movers and shakers in the party. - Hot Air
So yep, the long guns are out.
And that’s not the worst of it:
Joe Biden’s 2020 Ukrainian nightmare: A closed probe is revived. “Ukrainian officials tell me there was one crucial piece of information that Biden must have known but didn’t mention to his audience: The prosecutor he got fired was leading a wide-ranging corruption probe into the natural gas firm Burisma Holdings that employed Biden’s younger son, Hunter, as a board member.”
Plus: “Lutsenko said some of the evidence he knows about in the Burisma case may interest U.S. authorities and he’d like to present that information to new U.S. Attorney General William Barr, particularly the vice president’s intervention.”
Joey might be able to maneuver the #metoo minefield with the help of some party regulars, but this Ukrainian deal, well it sounds a little too much like Russia! Russia! Russia!
Boy, not as much fun when you’re the target, eh Joe?
Joey has been around long enough to tell the difference between an amateur take down attempt that can be dealt with by mumbling mealy-mouthed mea culpas and an all-out weapons grade attack. And a live shot across the bow is definitely the later.
Anyone care to start an over/under on when Joe announces he’s discussed a presidential run this with his family and decided that this is not the right time?

I don’t care who is orchestrating it. I’m glad it’s out there.
This week - no later than Friday. I know that’s not too specific but hell- ole Creepy has no freaking n chance in this one. In fact, the democrats will NEVER run a straight white man again
However, I really doubt this is all happening spontaneously. More likely, he's getting pushed out of the way pre-emptively to make room for some other (as of yet undeclared) candidate that the DNC wants to anoint. If Biden isn't in the race, the Democrats are left with ideological extremists like Sanders and Warren who are unelectable in a general election, a flavor of the month who's already gotten stale (O'Rourke) and a bunch of no-names and also-rans who are unlikely to get much traction.
I can't help but think that this is their way of paving the way for a "reluctant" Hillary Clinton to enter the race in the near future, claiming that only she can save the Democrats from self-destruction.
Sanders/Harris, my best guess at this point.
For a while, we all thought that would be Biden. Since the Democrats are now throwing him under the bus (i.e. these stories aren't just coming up now out of the blue for no reason), this means that they plan on anointing somebody else. For all we know it may be Hillary again.
“Believe women....but only to a point and only when it relates to Reoublicans” is the new Democrat MeToo war cry when it comes to Democrat candidates in their nomination wars being charged by politically active Democrat women who create false outrage narratives that they never publicly complained about in the past apparently in support of candidates such as Bernie and the female chauvinist supporting women candidates. Joe’s creepy public actions of shoulder touching and head kissing are more in the annoyance mode than the serious rape or assaultive molestation mode that these women are trying to raise his annoying actions to for their own political ends. Women occasionally run into inappropriate characters like Joe and move on.I doubt anyone has been traumatized to the point of therapy by that kind of inappropriate behavior. Having said that, it would not be a bad thing if smarmy Joe falls into a black hole and disappears politically.A pox on all their progressive houses.
I think you’re right.
The best thing Republicans can do regarding this subject is ignore it. Make it a Democrat infighting problem, which is what it is.
When it comes down to it, the progressive left doesn’t want an election. They want a Revolution.
Joe. Too dopey, too gropey.

In this episode I address the exploding scandal surrounding Joe Biden and foreign collusion with Ukraine. Joe Biden must answer key questions I lay out in the show today. I also address another Hollywood actor’s attempt to enter the political fray. Finally, I address the worsening collapse of New York due to its liberal policies.

I also think..
1) It won't be Hillary. Wouldn't surprise me if she doesn't even make it to 2020, with her health probs. The irony of the 2016 election is that the person who stole the nomination (Hillary) was the only one Trump had a chance of beating.
2) It won't be Sanders. He had his shot, Hillary took him out in 2016. The youth are on to the next new hotness.
3) Harris, Buttgig, or Irish Bob on the ticket wouldn't surprise me, though I think that they are peaking too early. Maybe as VP material?
4) I still think that a dark horse might come out of nowhere on the Dem side. Also, there are plenty of egos out there - Bloomberg or Schultz might run as a 3rd party "moderate" (lol) candidate and split the ticket. In that case, I think a 3rd party run hurts both D and R, but more so on the Democrat side.
That's my 2 bits. Stepping off my soapbox.
Yes, Hillary! I believe it because they will say she is the only one with “experience” who is not an old white male. I think sometime in the next 2-4 weeks she will say or do something to make the media start speculating about her running, again
Hillary is FUBAR, and the Dems all know it. Even if she is quietly taking out Biden with a pre-emptive #MeToo assault, it won't help because the party will not risk her becoming a three time loser.
I think there's a good chance that Mooch Will be the 11th hour candidate.
One Freeper speculated it’s Bernie taking Biden down. Whoever it is, it looks like a significant segment of the leftist loonies are going along with the takedown, or it wouldn’t be happening.
I highly doubt that Bernie is behind this. Not his style at all. He's more the, 'let's all hold hands and sing Kumbaya' type.
No, this is a textbook Clinton/Obama style op.
good point
Can be little doubt that it's Bernie's people taking out the front-runner in the Dem polls--Biden and Bernie are running 1-2 out in front of the pack.
This left-wing Democrat primary is turning rapidly into a vipers nest with poisonous fangs flaring out from all sides. If it can't be Socialist Bernie then by god it has to be a progessive female beating President Trump and running the country for many years.
The Biden knee-chopping is only the first of many Dem political primary battles to come--especially with this developing lunatic asylum of left-wing candidates.
After Sanders' campaign wrapped in 2016, he formed "Our Revolution," a group, the Nation reported at the time, "founded to carry forward the work of his 'political revolution,'" that Sanders himself tasked with creating "the strongest and most progressive Democratic platform in the history of the country ... the blueprint for Democrats moving forward in Congress and around the country."
Lucy Flores was part of the founding board of Our Revolution.
“I'm incredibly excited to continue the work that Bernie and so many others started in order to further our shared progressive agenda,” she[Lucy Flores] said at the organization's groundbreaking, according to a press release. “It's truly an honor to work alongside the talented Our Revolution board and staff, who are as committed as I am to the future of our political movement.”
