Joe Biden Should Resign
Townhall.com ^ | August 26, 2021 | Emmett Tyrrell

Washington -- Well, we have two hellholes around the globe today: Afghanistan and Haiti. Where would you rather be? You could be in Haiti, where American aid is being flown in and where, as perilous as it is today, there will be better tomorrows. Or you could be in Afghanistan, where American rescue planes are flying in, but they are in short supply, and there is no sign of better tomorrows. In fact, there will be worse tomorrows. In both countries, America has made its mark. I shall take Haiti.

resident Joe Biden keeps appearing on the television screen. He vaguely reminds me of former President Donald Trump with his press conferences on COVID-19, Operation Warp Speed and anything else that popped into his mind. He was having a good time of it. Moreover, much of what he said was true. COVID was eventually on the run, and Operation Warp Speed was a reality. Is it possible Biden has taken Trump as his model? Alas, Biden is not having a good time.

He stands there in front of the cameras, sometimes with aides nearby whom he glances at. Sometimes he looks stonily into the camera. He seems to be out of touch, even oblivious of what is going on. At his second press conference last week, he said so many things that were plainly not true that I could not keep up with him. Politicians often say things that are not true, but not on consequential matters. If the matters are consequential, most politicians avoid the question if they have no way to help themselves. Biden does not seem to recognize whether the questions are important or not. I have never seen a president of the United States so out of touch with reality. I suppose former President Woodrow Wilson may have answered questions in this way, but that was after his stroke. Could Biden have had a stroke?

I would say he has to leave office immediately, but that would leave Vice President Kamala Harris as president. From what I have seen of her, she is as out of it as Biden, though for different reasons. Biden is out of it because he is an old 78. Harris is out of it because she is an ideologue of the far left. Either way, both are incapable of running the country. This is what you get when the voters vote against a candidate rather than for a candidate. They did not like Trump, though he gave them good government. So now they have a president who is clearly not up to the job, and a president in the wings who is an ideologue of the far left and clearly irrelevant.

Biden has always had the seeds of "cut and run" from the enemy in him. My colleague, Jeff Lord, knowing that Biden has held high office for some 40 years, got it into his head to pull from his library shelf former President Gerald Ford's memoir, "A Time To Heal," and review how Ford dealt with a similar situation to that now confronting Biden -- the fall of Vietnam. Lo and behold, there he found on page 255 of Ford's memoirs a young senator from Delaware, Joe Biden, siding with a majority of senators from the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in a meeting with the president in the Oval Office. Young as he was, Biden made his mark with Ford. Only two other senators are quoted, but Biden's quote is the longest. The junior senator said to the president, "I will vote for any amount for getting the Americans out" but "I don't want it (the monies extended to Americans) mixed with getting the Vietnamese out." An incredulous Ford said, "We couldn't just cut and run," but we did. And now Biden is president.

So, Biden is in the White House, and I do not see any way to remove him. What is more is the Democratic Party, at least in its upper tiers of leadership, is populated by people no more competent than Biden or Harris. They are all frauds. They are governors cut from the cloth of Gov. Andrew Cuomo. The senators are cut from the cloth of Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. They all have more skeletons in their closets than a grave robber. We are in for a long and painful period.

“This is what you get when the voters vote against a candidate rather than for a candidate.”

Did not happen. The election was stolen and idiots like this author remain silent. Stolen elections have consequences.

The republicans are a bunch spineless cowards and are more responsible for the destruction of the country then the people that actually stole the election, because they turned a blind eye.

There is no difference between Biden and Kamala. Let them both wallow in the shit they create and hopefully we can retake the House and Senate next year to make way for DJT.

There is less than zero chance that Harris is either impeached, or resigns on her own. Democrats wouldn't dare impeach the first female and the first black to serve as VP, and she's got no reason to resign.

If Biden goes, she's President, and it is entirely possible that we won't have a VP for, potentially, years.

It's possible that someone is waddling into the wings...

The recent actions by Joe may have been programmed to ensure China becomes the World Reserve Currency Vendor. The following Scenario might demonstrate Joe’s activities.
The Chinese gave billions of dollars to Hunter and the Dems to get Joe elected and you can bet they want something in return,,,Vendor for the Worlds Reserve Currency. Joe deliberately fumbled the Afghan pullout as being directed by China. Leaving thousands of American on their own in Afghanistan means nothing to Joe as his objective was to intimidate and anger our Allies, Canada, England and France to name a few. At the same time the Dems are passing 5 Billion Dollar Infrastructure packages with only 11% going to roads and other important projects with other vote getting Billions going to Social Issues causing inflation with high taxes to become an important issue forcing the Dollar to collapse. Here comes the Chinese forcing a vote in the UN to replace the US Dollar with their currency. American Allies, who have been abused by Biden, will vote against the USA and possibly China will become the Reserve Currency Vendor and Socialism becomes our form of government. China is in a win, win situation. They get the Lithium minerals from Afghanistan, the Reserve Currency Rights, both of which China drastically needs to achieve their World Domination goals and the Liberals get their Socialism in America and the Taliban take over the Middle East with China’s help and money.......

When we leave Afghanistan, it will be Afghanistan. It actually wasn’t Afghanistan while we were there.

It’s sort of like when they replace a character in a tv show.
They can’t make the new person exactly like the last but the basic theme of the show continues.

If there ever was a reason for repealing the 17th Amendment its the careers o Biden & Schumer.

The state legislatures in slecting senators would not have done worse ! For example I doubt if Bath Nouse Barry would have been selected as Senator !

NO! He should be impeached! and then imprisoned!

The fact that he has NOT been impeached makes CONGRESS COMPLICIT in his war crimes against America!

Pelosi wouldn’t be much closer than she is now. The new President has to a appoint a VP, and while that requires confirmation by the Senate, I think that wouldn’t be a problem under the circumstances (unless they appoint someone so off the wall even the Dems don’t like the person).

Of course, Pelosi is such a vicious witch that if the possibility opens up, I think even the odious Kamala should be careful walking down a flight of stairs in front of her…

“Typically, the victim shuffles but Biden is not shuffling but “high-stepping” perhaps to avoid the appearance of shuffling”

I’ve noticed his gait also. He does both. I noticed him looking more like he’s marching when he walked on the lawn leaving Marine 1. But after his last speech, he looked more like he shuffled out of the room.

In 1975 Biden wanted to rescue only Americans, not Vietnamese. Now it appears that mostly Afghans are being evacuated, not Americans. Why the difference? Because the Afghans are white? Or because they are seen as future Democrat voters.

Woodrow Wilson may have done a lot of harm to the country but he was a very intelligent man (had an earned Ph.D.). He never did a televised press conference after his stroke.

Of course it would have been hard to do one before the television was invented.

No.

If china joe resigns, there is no constitutional provision for anyone but the vice president to become president. The new president cannot then vote as President of the Senate to break ties.

For someone else to become president (next in line, under current law, is the speaker), both china joe and kameltoe would have to be removed. In that case as well, kameltoe would no longer be President of the Senate, possessing a tie-breaking vote.

Until the new president nominated, and congress confirmed, a new vice president, there would be no one to break tie votes.

And I’m not altogether sure that the current speaker would smooth the way for a new vice president, as she may have designs on the Oval Office, herself. At 81 years old, it would be a heck of a way to finish her career.

The nomination requires a majority vote in both the Hose and Senate, as per the 25th amendment.

If nazi pelosi has designs on the Oval Office as a way to cap her “glorious career” (let’s face it, she’s not getting any more popular with her own constituency in the House, may be a good time to bail), then kameltoe’s VP nomination isn’t happening.

Korsakoff syndrome is often due to deterioration of the hippocampus area of the brain, where short-term memory is converted into long-term memory. Often seen in cases of severe alcoholism.
