Bill Kristol declares Joe Biden 'the simple answer' for beating Trump
The Week ^ | 3/2/20

Posted on 03/02/2020 7:05:52 AM PST by conservative98

Bill Kristol has a simple case for a Joe Biden presidency.

In a post for his conservative site The Bulwark posted Monday, the neoconservative turned President Trump critic carefully broke down the remaining 2020 Democrats for the so-called "normal American." If "you don't like demagogues of the right or the left," you want someone who can win the Democratic nomination, and you're voting in a Super Tuesday state, then you should opt for the former vice president, Kristol wrote.

Kristol opens his piece with his definition of a "normal American:" Essentially, you don't want the U.S. to have to choose "between [President] Donald Trump and [Vermont Independent Sen.] Bernie Sanders in November." That leaves you with a "complex" situation, but "the answer actually is simple," Kristol continues. Neither Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) nor Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) will be the nominee "despite the flashes of electoral strength each has shown," and former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg isn't viable either. So "if you're inclined toward American constitutional democracy, the rule of law, and a free economic order," you'll vote for Biden, Kristol finishes.

Billy Kris-troll has the intellectual depth of a piece of toilet paper and his opinions are as welcome as an STD.

He’s as welcome as the coronavirus. And Kristol has been spectacularly wrong about everything!

Bill Kristol thought the candidate to beat Trump in 2016 was Evan McMullin, a career nebbish whose most distinctive accomplishment was shaving his head to reveal a striking resemblance to insufferable children’s TV cartoon character Caillou.

This season, he thinks the conservative candidate to beat Trump is a Democrat who has failed at every run for president he has tried for over three decades, and only this past week won his first primary in a state that hasn’t voted Democrat in a presidential election since 1976.

Kristol isn’t a conservative, he’s not respected in any circle, nor is he anything resembling a pundit. He’s a caricature of how Democrats would like to see a Republican behave so that they could invite one to a dinner party as a novelty and watch them change their voter registration at the end of the night.

In the event of a Biden presidency, somebody else will have to run the show, since the rest of us know that Joe is mentally incompetent. Does Bill Kristol plan to be the power behind the throne?

It could be kind of a catchy slogan.

Don’t Go Full Retard with Simple Joe

Agreed. Especially the part where he claims to be a conservative.

A conservative - no

A CON - yes.

This is ridiculous. Biden is clearly suffering from mental issues. It’s actually kind of funny that the Democrats are throwing their weight behind a brain damaged creep.

The thing is that Kristol has been reliably wrong about many things for several decades.

Even bet that Slow Joe forgets his name on the campaign trail fairly soon. The guy is a physical and mental train wreck, but this is who Bill Kristol is banking on to get the Deep State back into the White House. Take it for this globalist neoCON Repukes to pick a loser!

Gee, Bill, do you really want somebody with dementia - which only gets worse by the way - to be the leader of the free world?
