What it's really time for.
Old Joe Biden has now bowed to pressure from Democrat top dogs and dropped out of the race. So why is this man still president of the United States?
The contradiction is clear in the statement Biden’s handlers wrote in his name, withdrawing his candidacy: “It has been the greatest honor of my life to serve as your President. And while it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country” — note the order of priority: party first, country second — “for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term.”
This isn’t rocket science. If he is declining to run again, everyone knows why. It’s because he too firmly in the grip of dementia to mount a spirited and energetic challenge to the man whom Democrats have identified as the focus of evil in the modern world. But if that is true, however, then how is it that Old Joe is about to focus on fulfilling his duties as president? How is it that he is able to focus on anything at all? If he is unable to run for president, he is unable to be president.
It’s just that simple. It’s only complicated by the inveterate dishonesty of Biden and his fellow Democrats. Old Joe has been a corrupt, dishonest politician since the day he arrived in Washington, just as Richard Nixon was completing his first term as president. It would be refreshing if Biden could, after a long and sorry career that began with his dishonorable savaging of Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas, and is ending with him repeating long-discredited lies about Donald Trump, do the right and honorable thing, just this once.
The honorable thing to do is clear: Joe Biden should resign from the presidency.
Even those who are as appalled by the prospect of a Kamala Harris presidency as the Democrat power brokers clearly are should see that. Those power brokers, after pretending for over three years that Biden was sharp as a tack, saw their lie blow up in their faces during the old corruptocrat’s debate with Trump. Yet now they’re running with another lie. They want us to believe that Old Joe is fully capable of serving as president for the next seven months, at a time of maximum global tension, when nothing short of world war could break out at any time.
This is Joe Biden we’re talking about. We learned in the wake of the debate that Biden goes to bed at 8pm, and that’s after a nice cozy nap in the middle of the day. Reporters have already confronted Karine Jean-Pierre with embarrassing questions about what happens if some major crisis breaks out at, say, 9:30. Are we supposed to believe that now that he will be free from the rigors of a reelection campaign, Biden is going to be the glib old hair-plugged Biden of old, ready to face down Putin — oh, no, wait, that’s Zelensky?
The Democrats who have really been in charge of the Biden regime all this time should finally stop lying to the American people. Let Biden stay in his taxpayer-funded walled Delaware beach house, and let the people see the caliber of his replacement.
For Kamala Harris has no excuses. She isn’t 81 years old. She is not suffering from dementia. She has no excuse, but there is no question about it: she is not fit to be president of the United States. One reason why Old Joe declined to resign is likely because it will keep the American people from getting a full view of how spectacularly incapable she really is.
If, however, she is to be the Democrat nominee, and if the entire political and media establishment is now going to spend the rest of the time before the election trying to convince us that she is the second coming of Joan of Arc, Rosa Parks, and Angela Merkel rolled into one, only more so, then let’s see her in action.
A Harris presidency would be an immense risk, but at this point, what course of action wouldn’t be? At least this is a chance for the left to end its constant lying. The Democrats could undo a bit of the immense damage they’ve done by admitting that they’ve lied about Old Joe all this time, sending him into retirement, and giving the reins to someone who is presumably in full possession of her faculties. Then the American people can get an up-close view of whether she is worthy of being given four years to finish the Democrats’ job of destroying the nation.

The POTATUS didn’t quit.
He was declared surplus to Deep State’s requirements.
Quit...
SNORT.
Dem party insiders and mega donors will decide what to do and when, it’s their country, not the people’s.
Campaigning is a full time job and so is the presidency. Someone could easily have stamina for one but not both.
Biden probably would do better without travel and jet lag.
I would rather have Biden’s handlers continue the job they do than see the historic first woman president Kamala Harris take over.
“At least this is a chance for the left to end its constant lying. “
Not going to happen.
They would have us believe that he can’t run for president but he can run the country.
"One reason why Old Joe declined to resign is likely because it will keep the American people from getting a full view of how spectacularly incapable she really is."
I believe that he was canceled by the liberal elite mega-donors.
As soon as it was clear that the money was drying up, Biden was history.
Since the democrats/leftists seem to think that men and women are the same, and interchangeable, and entirely determined by the subjective opinion of each individual, then whether the president is male or female should be of no consequence, and they should neither make a point of it, nor celebrate it.
But democrats/leftists are liars and hypocrites, so of course, they will never stop talking about "the first woman president".
He has 6 more months to further destroy the country and the DNC is blame free.
“””I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country” — note the order of priority: party first, country second — “for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term.””””
Biden remains loyal to the Democrat Party and receives glowing accolades from the media wing of the Democrat Party.
Yes, party power is the only thing that matters to Democrats.
Thanks to Robert Spencer for highlighting this.
Interestingly, the media has been blathering about Biden’s withdrawal since 2pm yesterday and this is the first time I heard about the ordering of the words party and country.
After looking at exactly how this has transpired, I don’t think it’s unreasonable to wonder if Joe even knows that he has withdrawn.
Mike Cernovich on How Democrats Are Gearing Up to Steal the 2024 Election — Are Republicans Paying Attention?
Author and filmmaker Mike Cernovich recently sat for a two-hour interview with Tucker Carlson.
Mike Cernovich: Nobody can know because the Democrats have all these tricks off their sleeves that people aren’t prepared for. For example, what they’re doing now with motor voter registration is they’re registering illegal immigrants who come into the country, and they’ll just harvest those ballots. It’s really easy to do. We have 10 or 11 million people in it over the past couple of years on the Biden administration. You register them all the vote.
It doesn’t matter because they’re not going to vote. So there’s no voter prosecution, and there won’t be any record of voter fraud by them. But you have all these names now. In a swing state, remember, elections are decided not by the popular vote. It’s decided by 50 to 100,000 votes in three to four states.
So all you do is you need 8,000 votes in Georgia. Push them through. 20,000 votes in Arizona. You have all these extra names now added to the voter rolls. Push them through. Wisconsin has those drop boxes back. Push them through. And you don’t need to do another scale of millions. You just need to do it strategically. Add 10,000 here, 20,000 there.

The order was party, then country. My take is that someone who checked the message before it went live said, “You know, something’s missing. Oh, we should probably mention the welfare of the country. Let’s add that in.”

Illegals being Registered to Vote needs to be highlighted again and again.
My question to FReepers: “Have you asked the Secretary of State in your State how many Registered Voters have a matching REAL ID?”

Democrats, especially Democrat women, can embrace how Jao Bai-din thought so little of them that he dumped them by tweet.
Good.
Let him resign the presidency right now and Kamala can take over - let the American people see her gross incompetence and inadequacy for the position of POTUS, let her make a fool of herself...
Although the media are already gearing up to present her to us as the “greatest, most qualified candidate ever in the history of America.” You can be sure they will cover for her - just as they knew to keep her hidden from the public for the past three years...
