Scarborough says every Democrat he talks to privately says Biden is too old to run

MSNBC pundit Joe Scarborough said Wednesday that every Democrat he has spoken to privately believes President Biden is “too old” to run for reelection next year.

During an appearance on “Morning Joe,” Washington Post columnist David Ignatius spoke to Scarborough and co-host Mika Brzezinski about his new piece calling on Biden and Vice President Harris to halt their plans to run in 2024.

“I think it comes down to what we were talking about earlier — is Joe Biden the person who can stop Donald Trump or somebody like Trump who gets the Republican nomination?” Ignatius said. “That’s what he’s got to — he’s got to look in the mirror, search his soul and make that decision. And I wanted to raise that question. I’d like him to think that through carefully because I have my concerns.”

He’s not too old. His arrogant persona, mediocre intellect, and unbridled ego, are catching up with him. He should never have run for president. He would have gotten away with most, left with the legacy of being a nebbish. Now he’s in trouble.

What that means is what they really told him is that Biden is too senile.

The fact that Scarborough was allowed (and directed) to report this means that the oligarchy running the Biden administration has decided Biden must be replaced, as he is no longer capable of performing as a puppet of the factions.

And they have reached a tentative agreement on who the replacement team will be.

[Spoiler] I do not believe Harris has been selected for the replacement team. Nor did Gavin Newsome make the cut. But we should get the "reveal" before December.

The disposal of Biden and Harris should make a great dramatic episode too. Will they resign in a lavish ceremony amid fulsome praises, or will they be removed by more forceful means? And can they blame it on Donald Trump?

Stay tuned for the next episode.

I have a theory that Biden was not supposed to win in 2020.

Could be, but, democrats were looking for a 'name', one that people knew or heard about None of the primaries candidates had name recognition or were disposed of during the primaries with low poll numbers or with low primary votes.

FACT is that, no matter who they had running in the general election, he or she was going to win, no matter what. So, in order to give their expected victory some validity, they went with a known quantity and one that was still somewhat popular in democrat circles, so, Biden was it. Even if they had run Kamala, she was going to 'win'..

It looks like they nay be regrouping and pivoting to find their most electable. Smart. It’s like they actually understand & are aware of what it takes to win an election. It’s like their biggest calculation never seems to be loyalty to their candidate or to one of their tribes, but about leftist philosophy carrying the day (even if it’s hidden under a phony veneer that they try & pass off as moderate). Its like they make cutthroat calculations, swallowing their personal dislike of who may end up as candidate & make their decisions about which true leftist they could have the easiest time painting as middle of the road & using as a Trojan horse to get power.

Yeah they also seem to understand using those same calculations in competing in all elections & that you need majorities & control of as many different offices in each level of government to be successful & keep wackos from power. They seem to grasp that a president or governor can’t change much of anything on his own. They seem to do their best to avoid circular firing squads. Our enemies appear smarter than we give them credit for 😑

Seriously? They could count on about half the country and would do whatever they could to pull Joe over the finish line. If they were expecting to lose, they could have nominated Warren or Buttigieg or Harris or Booker.

Bring on Kamala! She’s a first! First woman, first black woman, first ditzy black woman, first ditzy black woman of easy morals, to ever steal an election. With her finger on the nuclear button, we’ll all be free of fear and worry (’cause we’ll all be dead?)!

"pound it' Joe Scarborough said Wednesday that every Democrat he has spoken to privately believes President Biden is “too old” to run for re-election next year.

No Mr Lady-killer, he's not "too old"...he's too brain-dead.
