Ted Cruz drops big prediction about replacing Biden and who it will be (Big Mike)

In the wake of Joe Biden's debate implosion, there's a lot of panic going on in the Democratic Party.

CNN's John King encapsulated it on Thursday night:

"Very aggressive panic," he termed it.

In the immediate wake of the debate, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) spoke with Ben Ferguson on their podcast, "The Verdict," about the debacle.

As Rebecca Downs at our sister site Townhall reported:

Cruz agreed with King that "Joe Biden did unbelievably badly, that the degree of dementia he is facing right now, it has escalated to a point that it is unrecognizable," adding "I think there are a great many Democrats who are looking at this saying 'we cannot nominate this man, he is not capable, he doesn't know what's going on.'"

Cruz thought former President Donald Trump did very well and let Biden "hang himself."

Trump was also "restrained, even as Biden was saying ridiculous things. He was restrained, he was calm, he was matter of fact; he prosecuted the case. And Biden couldn't handle it. Biden repeatedly was screaming, 'you're a liar, you're lying!'"

While Trump was restrained, Biden couldn't stop going off and screaming about Trump being a liar. That didn't go over well; it looked freaky and desperate.

Cruz pointed out the terrible numbers for Kamala Harris; he said they'd lose if they made her the nominee, but they face a dilemma if they try to push her to the side for someone like California Gov. Gavin Newsom.

Cruz spoke about the theory that Biden would be replaced. In the wake of the debate, he thinks the likelihood has skyrocketed from his prior prediction of a 50 percent chance.

The senator offered "I have to say we have just witnessed what I believe is the most consequential presidential debate in U.S. hi....

Would explain why dipstick Newscum is so patronizingly supportive of Biden post-debate.

Republicans love believing in their Boogeyman, no matter how many times they’re told it’s not in the closet.

“Big Mike has zero political experience. She will do worse than Kamala Harris. Harris is Demosthenes and Cicero combined in comparison. Big Mike has been sheltered and protected from the consequences of her own incompetence all her life. Her Princeton senior thesis is childish. No white person would have graduated with that tripe.”

None of that matters.
Remember these are gullible American voters we are talking about .
Of course not all voters.
But the chunk of gullible ones with low critical thinking skills.
They will ramp all of the Obama BS.

I don’t buy that for a moment.

She never had this kind of aspiration and has stated numerous times she isn’t interested. She hated the spotlight and want her private life. It’d be 10x if she were POTUS.

Plus, Barack doesn’t have the same shine he once did - even with black folks. He did nothing for them. It would be transparently clear she would just be another term for Barack.

Not happening.

It could be, but most people see the race card as being overdrawn. Everyone is tried of the "po' widdle ol' colored me" shtick.

Barack had the same problem when he was off teleprompter, but they controlled it for 8 years and the public mostly loved him.

which begs the question as to how Barack lost the Congress by record numbers ...

While the average loss in the midterms since World War II, is the incumbent's party loses an average of 26 seats in the House, and an average of four seats in the Senate,

Barack managed to take the Democrats from a 256 seat majority in the House down to 188 (-63 and -13) and from 59 seats in the Senate to 46 (-6 and -9).

It wasn't that he was so popular, it was that the Republican candidates were ineffectual communicators and horrible campaigners.

Agree. Obama was the rock star. Big Mike is not likeable.

Cruz makes a good point about Biden’s angry man “liar liar” routine, which is getting lost in dementia talk.

Imagine any Republican acting the way Biden does, and it not being a huge turn off to voters. It would be the only thing the media would be talking about.

It also shows that Trump hating women & independent voters, have zero political consistency in holding candidates to the same the standards.

“Democrat Good”

“Republican Bad”

Is why they vote they way they do, it has nothing to do with behavior, that’s just an excuse they use.
Trump could show up at the next debate with a gag in his mouth and they’ll still repeat the same talking points.

Don’t believe Barack can talk her into giving up the easy life style and and spending time on vacations to do a job to keep him in power not sure they are that close any more money changes many things.

This absurd crap about Mooch running is so tedious. It’s not in her personality, skillet, interests, or abilities. She actually cares about her own ego and won’t allow it to suffer any injuries related to the damage that her husband and the Drooling Spoon have created. She’s a “perks only” girl with zero incentive or desire to serve anyone other than herself and her dopey children. She’s only just as smart as wisely concealing her paper thin level of intelligence on any given matter. Playing it safe is her trademark. She’s still years away from developing the necessary thick skin.
