The Anti-Biden Coup Harms Democracy
Compact Magazine ^ | July 8, 2024 | Batya Ungar-Sargon

Posted on 07/08/2024 9:10:14 AM PDT by edwinland

Something amazing has happened in the 10 days since [the] debate: Biden has come in for the kind of coordinated onslaught from the mainstream media and Democratic power brokers that is usually reserved for Republicans.

[snip]

The American people have since been treated to a deluge of negative Biden coverage: not just of the president’s cognitive impairments, but also the Shakespearean power struggles in his inner orbit and his White House’s breaking of norms by feeding journalists questions ahead of interviews. You could say Biden is getting the Trump treatment.

[snip]

The same Democratic elites who, in the name of “defending democracy,” have tried to bar Trump from the ballot, from the presidency, from walking the streets as a free man, are now engaged in a coup attempt against Biden, a duly elected president who won 3,896 delegates in a primary contest, albeit an artificially truncated one.

Of course, Biden’s real crime isn’t cognitive impairment. Democratic elites would be fine with his senility if they thought he could beat Trump. That’s why they aren’t calling for him to step down now, and why they aren’t invoking the 25th Amendment. They don’t think he is too old or cognitively impaired to serve the next six months of his term, despite all their panicked yammering. Rather, they are now convinced that he can’t beat Trump in November, which is as true today as it was two weeks ago, yet they believe that their ability to hide this fact from the American people is faltering.

But all of the push polls tell me that Pedo Biden had a dead cat bounce and is now winning against President Trump.

It’s all political theater. Preparations for another STEAL are well underway; they’re pretending to be in trouble to distract us.

Like those college student drinking contests when someone says something on TV and they take a drink, I feel like grabbing a Dem and pummeling them each time they say “democracy” on TV. Arrrgggghhhh.

I want “their democracy” to fail miserably.

In other words, if they rig the election again for an obviously senile dementia patient, no one will believe it. So, they need to find another candidate for plausible deniability for another Big Steal in 2024.

Can you think of a more perfect representative of the party? I can't.

  1. white liberal
  2. stupid
  3. worked in the private sector for maybe just a few months of his entire life.
  4. Fed at the public trough the rest of his life.
  5. Useless and unable to make an honest living doing ANYTHING else.
  6. Nasty, self-centered and convinced that public service means the public is supposed to serve him.
  7. Demented and with delusions of grandeur.

It’s true that they want him out - later - because he can’t win. But it’s okay for him to stay in (and keep Kamala out of the Presidency - and incumbency - for now.) After all, they’ve been running a shadow government for 3.5 years now with a walking cadaver at the head.

They need Biden to not run AND to have enough time to figure out how to keep Kamala off the ticket. That’s the dilemma.

Kamala, as inadequate as she seems, has an absolute responsibility to invoke article 25 now as it is clear that Biden is incapable. If she fails to do so, then she is derelict in her duty and is unfit to be vice president. I am hoping Wily old Willie Brown gives her a call.

That's the way the DemocRATs roll. Smoke and Mirrors.
