‘Morning Joe’ hosts: Biden campaign sees Obama’s hand in calls to drop out
The Hill ^ | 07/11/2024 | DOMINICK MASTRANGELO

Posted on 07/11/2024 8:26:42 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough said Thursday that President Biden’s campaign believes former President Obama is behind growing calls for his former vice president to drop out of the 2024 race.

“One thing that we do have to underline here — just so viewers can follow what’s going on behind the scenes — is the Biden campaign and many Democratic officials do believe that Barack Obama is quietly working behind the scenes to orchestrate this,” Scarborough said on “Morning Joe.”

Scarborough added during Thursday’s broadcast that Biden is “deeply resentful of his treatment under not only the Obama staff but also the way he was pushed aside for Hillary Clinton” in 2016.

Mika Brzezinski, Scarborough’s co-host and wife, added, “I think Barack Obama has a lot of influence, and there’s a lot there.”

Dems turned on each other... this is so good, I couldn’t have imagined this, but I’m loving it.

I’m still wary, Dems are a cornered animal right now, capable of anything.

Let's be careful here.

There seems to be a subtle effort underway to distance Obama and his cohort from any association to the policy disasters of the last four years.

https://atdeso.com/blog/nikolaiii/the-6-phases-of-a-big-project-a-parody-of-project-management

Unbounded Enthusiasm
This is the first phase where everyone is excited about a new project and are ready to tackle it head-on with enthusiasm and passion. Everyone has high hopes for the project and can’t wait to dive into it. It’s almost too good to be true!

Total Disillusionment
As reality sets in, team members start to realize that this project is going to be much harder than they thought and will require much more work than anticipated. Everyone starts to become disillusioned with the project and their motivation plummets as they lose faith in its success.

Panic, Hysteria and Overtime
In this phase, everyone starts to feel overwhelmed by the task at hand and begins working beyond their normal hours trying desperately to get things done on time (and within budget). People start panicking because they feel like they are running out of time and losing control over the situation.

Frantic Search for the Guilty
When things start going wrong or deadlines start slipping away, people begin pointing fingers at each other trying to find someone to blame for their problems. Everyone tries desperately not only to protect themselves but also try to shift blame onto someone else who isn’t present or can’t defend themself from such accusations. This phase can be extremely damaging as morale plummets due to lack of trust between team members.

Punishment of The Innocent
As tensions rise throughout this process group blaming game, some people will inevitably suffer consequences even though they had nothing directly do with any mistakes made on the project. This could include anything from verbal abuse all the way up through termination depending on how serious any missteps were perceived by management or other stakeholders involved in the project.

Reward for The Uninvolved
Finally comes what seems like an inevitable ending point; those who weren’t involved in any capacity receive rewards for their ‘contribution’ while everyone else slogs away behind them trying desperately just to keep things together until completion day arrives!


Which phase are they in? Looks like all of them to me.

Evidently, Obama does not believe that Washington Post poll that has Trump and Biden neck and neck.

“The Verbal Reasoning measure of the GRE General Test assesses your ability to:
analyze and evaluate written material and synthesize information obtained from it
analyze relationships among component parts of sentences
recognize relationships among words and concepts”

“The Verbal Reasoning measure contains three types of questions: Reading Comprehension, Text Completion and Sentence Equivalence.”

This is a parody?

In my working life I worked for a couple of organizations like that.

The “rewards for the uninvolved” at the end were to black women who didn’t even know what the project was!

“LSAC will continue to offer the LSAT [Law School Admission Test] in a digital, remotely proctored environment through the 2024-2025 testing cycle.”

“With the changes coming to the LSAT starting in August, updated test preparation materials are now available in LSAC’s LawHub, designed to support test takers planning to test in August or later.”

“You can get started with the free Official LSAT PrepTests® available in your LawHub account, or upgrade to LawHub Advantage, which includes an extensive library of full, official LSAT sample tests.”

https://www.lsac.org/lsat

“Both law school and the practice of law revolve around extensive reading of highly varied, dense, argumentative, and expository texts (for example, cases, codes, contracts, briefs, decisions, evidence). This reading must be exacting, distinguishing precisely what is said from what is not said. It involves comparison, analysis, synthesis, and application (for example, of principles and rules). It involves drawing appropriate inferences and applying ideas and arguments to new contexts. Law school reading also requires the ability to grasp unfamiliar subject matter and the ability to penetrate difficult and challenging material.

“The purpose of LSAT Reading Comprehension questions is to measure the ability to read, with understanding and insight, examples of lengthy and complex materials similar to those commonly encountered in law school. The Reading Comprehension section of the LSAT contains four sets of reading questions, each set consisting of a selection of reading material followed by five to eight questions.”

https://www.lsac.org/lsat/taking-lsat/test-format/reading-comprehension

“Each Logical Reasoning question requires you to read and comprehend a short passage, then answer one question (or, rarely, two questions) about it. The questions are designed to assess a wide range of skills involved in thinking critically, with an emphasis on skills that have proven to be central to legal reasoning.

“These skills include:
Recognizing the parts of an argument and their relationships
Recognizing similarities and differences between patterns of reasoning
Drawing well-supported conclusions
Reasoning by analogy
Recognizing misunderstandings or points of disagreement
Determining how additional evidence affects an argument
Detecting assumptions made by particular arguments
Identifying and applying principles or rules
Identifying flaws in arguments
Identifying explanations”

Unwinding the web the dems made..
If Barry wants Biden to step down. Barry loses his ‘job’..
Unless he doesn’t lose his job and gets a better one via Mrs Barry.
Obama does nothing without plans.. There is a reason for “stepping down”.
The United States is central.. We are down to it.

It’s well known that the great Obama came to loathe Joe, and Joe is under the impression that the supposedly great accomplishments of Obama were actually his for which he received no credit. That the camps of these two wretched hacks are finally going at it is glorious
