By February of this year, Joe Biden was already so cognitively impaired that nearly four-in-five Americans had revealed to pollsters that he was just too old to run for president again. Biden was already beginning to drown in polls against his opponent on nearly every issue that is important to Americans by double digits, including a massive 35% deficit on the vital issue of border security and controlling illegal immigration.
For many of us, it was obvious that Biden wouldn’t make it to November. It can’t be Biden on the top of the ticket in 2024, I argued back then.
And yet somehow, the prediction that he wouldn’t be around in November to headline the ticket was considered a longshot prediction by all of the mainstream media and the supposedly smart set of political wonks. There just wasn’t enough time to replace Biden in the primary process

Now, I maintain that the Biden camp’s nearly immediate endorsement of Kamala Harris was a big middle finger to those conspiring in a coup against him. New information this week only serves as further evidence of that. As it turns out, Barack Obama reportedly threatened Biden with the 25th Amendment, telling him that Harris was on board to invoke it. Equally unsurprising is that Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and Hakeem Jeffries were all in coordination.
When Biden’s announcement came with a surprise endorsement of Kamala Harris, none of these conspirators were quick to endorse Harris. What followed was a series of stringing endorsements by the establishment honchos, culminating with Obama’s endorsement nearly a week later.
If a show of unity is the goal, that goal would have been better served with a coordinated endorsement. But that didn’t happen, which suggests confusion on the part of the Democrat party elite.

I believe that will be exactly the plan.
I think without a debate, they would have killed Biden. Harris becomes President, all the sympathy from the media. It would have been enough time.
Far-left socialists have gone Bananas for Harris.
What they can not script is CHARISMA. You either have it or you don’t. Obama, Clinton, W Bush, Reagan and Trump all had CHARISMA. Whether you agreed with them politically or not they were all likeable. Hillary did not have it. Which is one of the main reason she lost.
Bill “I feel your pain” Clinton had it in spades. He was the best used car salesman/politician I have ever seen.
Reagan also had it. Of course, he was a trained actor. He was extremely likeable and funny. Even Mondale had to laugh at his jokes.
Obama was a very charismatic speaker when he was behind his trusted Teleprompter. With out it he was not so good. Unless he was talking about sports. He could talk sports. He watched a lot of ESPN. He was the Black Messiah.
Kamala does NOT have charisma. She is NOT likeable. So, it is like trying to put lipstick on a pig.
That does not mean she should be underestimated. She did not become VP without being a sneaky, crafty, manipulating, politician. She would do anything to gain more power and the gold ring of POTUS.
So, Kamala will get all the Trump haters vote. I find it had to believe she will get the true Independents vote.
Kamala can easily win. Biden lost the under 35 vote and the suburban women weren’t that excited about him. Now with Kamala they are ENERGIZED and will all vote.
The GOP is failing to define Harris as the open borders, high inflation pro-crime lunatic she is. If we lose, it’s because we are not getting ads up on legacy media.
To any sentient being with a functioning brain stem the mainstream media and the supposedly smart set of political wonks have so little credibility that you need Fauci’s microscope to see it.
Agreed, they will script her 100%, bad news for the GOP because the GOP is not effectively running a campaign against her.
Kamala hasn’t had to answer any questions and i see no reason she’ll ever have to answer questions. If she debates Trump and has a rough debate the media will just move on and if she has a good debate they won’t stop talking about it and the next debate won’t happen because she’ll refuse to debate a rapist and the media will explain that as a bold and unprecedented decision. The reality of the June 27th is that if the media wanted to move on Biden would have survived, and easily. A free and fair election isn’t really possible when the media is all in for one side over the other. Im hoping everyone here gets involced to gotv.
They had to pick Kamala or they would have pissed off the most loyal members of their base African American Women.
Who will vote for Kamala 95% or more.
Even though she is only 1/4 Black.
What the Dems were looking at IF they had stuck with Biden was a LANDSLIDE. Which means they not only would have lost POTUS, but more house seats, maybe the Senate, more governors, State Reps and your local dog catcher.
So, Kamala was their best alternative. They will pair her up with some Dem Governor and that will make it close. Potentially close enough to cheat in a couple swing states.
She won't. Biden went 4 years w/o a real press conference, the media is not interested in questioning Democrats. I believe the polls, they went from Trump up 3-4% to Trump down 3-4%. We're in big heap trouble.
“Which is why trump will not commit to debating her”
Trump could say he’d debate whoever becomes the Democrat candidate.
It will be Big Mike. They have this virtual role call vote coming up. It all begins there. By now, Heels Up should be so far ahead in the polls, but nothing is giving the left the bump they will need to be able to pull of the cheat/steal. Unless, of course, they just do what is happening in Venezuela right now. But in order to pull it off, the ultimate candidate must be sensationalist news enough to run the cycle between now & November. The only one that can do that is Big Mike. I’ve been saying this for months now. It’s obvious and entirely clear, especially once you realize it’s all scripted.
Plan C or, perhaps D if you count Trump’s attempted assassination.
As I recall he basically left it open that way, not a hard commitment but open that he cannot commit either way until he knows who the nominee will be.
Pretty much the best position to take, why commit to an action your opponent refuses to present and information on?
I agree. It was a set-up by 0.

Heels Up/Uncle Festerman.
Betcha.
I hope the secret internal polls show Kamala leading—because she is the weakest possible Democrat candidate.
Otherwise they may move her out of there as quickly as they put her in....
It is and has always been big Mike. That’s always been the plan. Reluctant hero rides in to save our Democracy.
