Did The New York Times Just Admit That Joe Biden Is Corrupt So Democrats Can Get Rid Of Him?

Joe Biden is no longer useful to the ruling class.
It is painfully obvious, as was predictable, that Joe Biden’s presidency is a dumpster fire. As demonstrated by the party’s destructive callousness towards children, the elderly, and the poor during their Covid lockdown frenzy, Democrats care about none of these real-world results of their policies. But they do care about polling, and Joe Biden’s is abysmal.
According to even heavily politicized polls, Biden is at least performing as badly as Donald Trump. Biden is between the third- and fifth-most ratings-underwater president ever in American history at this point in his first term.
Biden of course also has the advantage of a wildly favorable press and social media monopoly while Trump had the strong headwind of a wildly negative one. That factor obscured for a great many of American voters actions that easily demonstrated long before his election that Biden was unfit for the presidency.
Now that he’s president, however, and very publicly bungling essentially every major issue all the way up to U.S. national security, Biden’s weakness and incompetence have been impossible for the corrupt media to entirely cover up. Biden’s appalling withdrawal from Afghanistan may have been the first major blow to public confidence in his governing ability, and it’s been followed by blow after blow: the repercussions of ending U.S. energy independence, historic inflation caused by massive government spending, aggression by America’s foreign foes, a tacitly open border with human trafficking of historic proportions, not to mention fueling America’s legalized mass killings of unborn infants and forcing schools to inflict gender dysphoria on the children in their care.
So yes, the polls look bad. That’s why Democrat officials suddenly switched away from their Covid mania, lifting mask mandates in blue states, ending the daily falsified “body counts” on TVs and newspapers, and jumping immediately into European war hysteria. But that’s not been enough to turn those polls around. Historic indicators presently suggest a “red wave” in the upcoming midterms.
That brings us to The New York Times’s recent “limited hangout“: its highly suspicious, very late acknowledgment that, hey, that laptop containing evidence that Joe Biden is just as corrupt as his son Hunter Biden told Russian prostitutes — that laptop is real, and so is its data. Yes, the United States’s top foreign adversaries likely have blackmail material on the U.S. president, and likely paid him some very big bribes.
Oh, and yes Twitter and Facebook did use their global communications monopolies to rig the election for Joe Biden by hiding this information (and who knows what else).
Why would The New York Times do this — and Facebook and Twitter not ban this information release just like they did before? Well, one explanation is hierarchy reinforcement. As I wrote Monday, like forcing their “minions” to wear face masks, the ridiculously belated laptop confirmation also equals the ruling class “flexing their power to say things they won’t allow their political opponents to say.”
There’s another explanation, though. It’s that Joe Biden is no longer useful to the ruling class. After being used to win an election, he’s now making it impossible for them to credibly foist on Americans the idea that his party could win another one with him on their masthead. The donkey is showing through the lion skin, and so they need a new donkey.
So while it seems utterly legitimate to insist on accountability such as appointing a special counsel to investigate the Biden family’s apparent corruption, that also could relieve the Democrat Party of their greatest liability. They’d probably deeply appreciate that, in fact. Biden got the ruling class what they wanted, and they don’t need him any more. Getting rid of him now would in fact be highly convenient for maintaining their power.
There’s only one problem with that. Kamala isn’t at all going well for them either.

Enjoy that bed you made for yourselves, Democrats. I hope it’s at least as uncomfortable as that bed you’ve made for all the Americans whose long-term outlook is more suffering, thanks to Democrats’ criminal prioritization of power for themselves above all else.

The Democrats conduct whispering campaigns, when they want to get rid of somebody.

This is what I have been expecting.
His presidency is cracking up, and right on cue.
Harris will appoint Hillary or OAC as her VP.
They really want Hillary bad. They view Harris
dropping out, and Hillary being president.

If nothing else, Harris shows how much influence Willie Brown had in Calif politics.

That’s akin to saying that Democrats are retards and can’t think for themselves.

November elections will be disastrous for Democrats.
If they want any say in the Administration, before then they must
- persuade Kamala to leave VP office (say, with a SCOTUS appointment; I don’t see any other way)
- replace Kamala with who they actually want as President
- 25th Biden
- move new VP into POTUS
- pick a new VP
They’re running out of time.
Get on with it, or
- Biden will 25th himself
- Kamala becomes POTUS
- Pelosi becomes VP (?)
- Democrats disastrously lose next presidential election

“They view Harris

I believe the Democrats always wanted Joe to drop out in favor of his VP, but Joe killed this when he announced his VP would be a woman of color. Then he chose the most loathed woman of color he could, making it impossible for the Dems to use their plan against him. I think Joe has a lot of survival capability built into him from decades of exposure to how things really work. He’s not entirely the doddering fool he appears to be. Either that or he has competent handlers...or both.
AS for Harris dropping out. Not unless they kill her. She may be dumb as a post, but once she’s in the job she will hang on like a starving dog with a bone. As for Harris choosing Hillary, I don’t think even she’s that dumb. And, aside from that, the DOJ has a stake poised over Hillary’s heart (assuming she has one) and if it looks like she’s a candidate they’ll endite her.
The best thing the Democrats can do is hunker down and survive to fight another day. Either that or start a war so they can declare martial law.

Hillary is on the outside looking in. Different crowd and they won’t have anything to do with her. Too vanilla and they won’t be able to control her if she gets too close to the big seat.

"Biden is at least performing as badly as Donald Trump"
We knew the polls were weighed to make Trump look bad. When crowd size and yard signs say one thing and polls say the opposite the polls are rigged. When Biden is polling so bad no one can hide it, you know the real numbers are 3 - 5 percentage points lower than reported.

Thanks for your interesting views. I don’t have any important
differences, and it’s good to hear other possibilities.

I agree in part. Not sure about Hillary. You may be right.

“Harris will appoint Hillary or OAC as her VP.”
Hillary will contact the Suicide Hotline with a ‘request’.

Biden, Harris and Pelosi are the three stooges.
To: Gen.Blather
It’s my layman’s understanding that if Harris ascends to the Presidency by Dumbjo being removed by the 25th Amendment, that it is the House’s call to replace the VP position, or not. It’s NOT required.
Let’s hope the Stupid Party, should they find themselves in such a fortuitous position after November, fall for the caterwauling of the left and feel compelled to approve someone for the slot.
