There is no way Presidentish Joe Biden will drop out of the race, and I'm here to tell you today why he might.
Wait, what?
As regular viewers of Five O'Clock Somewhere* know, my friend and colleague Stephen Kruiser and I must have spent 18 months, maybe two years, disabusing people of any wild notion that Biden would pull an LBJ and drop out of the race or be somehow forced out by party insiders.
But recent news items have forced me to admit that the impossible is now merely highly unlikely.
For your consideration:
Ace of Spades: The Torricelli Option Is On the Table: Leftwing Bloomberg Begins Polling Trump v. Kamala Harris, Anticipating a Biden Departure. "Obviously, Trump thumps Kumala [sic]. But why even ask? What are they hearing?"
Hillsdale's Henry Olsen: Biden is denying reality – he’s losing this election. "If Trump holds his own [in the June 27 presidential debate], Biden’s low favorability suggests even a credible Biden performance won’t right the ship. If the polls still look this bad in early August, after a big debate and tens of millions more in spending, Biden must make a big decision."
PJ Media's Matt Margolis: WHOA! Trump Might Be Right About New York. "According to the latest Siena College poll, Biden still leads Trump in the Empire State, but his lead has dropped to single digits."
George Mason's Jeremy Mayer: How can Biden save America from Trump's return to the White House? Drop out of the race. "Biden has had, by most standard measures, a pretty successful presidency. But he’s being blamed for high inflation, the U.S. troops withdrawal from Afghanistan, and the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza. "

But don’t forget: the Democrats will stop at NOTHING. Biden knows this.
“Dropping out” and “taken out” are very different.
Or Jeffries ….. Obama clone
They wouldn’t dare think of Hitlery. No one likes her. The only way she could win is by fraud. And Big Mike has already said she wouldn’t do it.
Jeffries? Not a big enough name.
No. Actually, a simple case of “Arkancide” is all that is needed. The CIA and FBI and definitely up to the challenge.
I think Biden’s ego ‘trumps’ (no pun intended) the wants or needs of the democrats. And I think after 50 years he has more dirt on everyone than anyone else in that DC cesspool that they can’t really take him out. Look how he already has the SS, FBI, DOJ, CIA, and every other agency protecting just his family.
I keep expecting to wake one morning and find out Branden died of a heart attack but there will be no autopsy.
I keep telling people to watch Pennsylvania’s Josh Shapiro.
Given that the lens is already skewed so far to the left, he appears relatively centrist in comparison.

Kamala Harris is absurdly unpopular, especially with blacks, kicking her off the ticket would gain Biden 10 points.
