Biden’s decision to drop out ‘has nothing to do with his health,’ White House says
The Hill ^ | 07/24/2024 | BRETT SAMUELS

Posted on 07/24/2024 1:33:34 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

President Biden’s decision to step aside as the expected Democratic nominee in November has “nothing to do with his health,” his top spokesperson said Wednesday ahead of his prime-time address to the nation.

“It has nothing to do with his health. The president is going to speak to this directly to the American people in prime time,” press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters during a briefing.

“In his letter he talked about the country, he talked about the party, he talked about the moment we’re in right now,” she continued. “It is not about his health. I can say no, that’s not the reason. But hear him out tonight.”

Jean-Pierre also rejected the idea that she and White House aides were engaged in a “cover up” to mask Biden’s decline from the public.

“There’s been no cover up, want to be very clear about that,” she said.

"They are profoundly stupid thinking the majority of the American public is that stupid!"

I don't know how old you are, or how good your memories are, but back in 1992, Bill Clinton admitted to the world that he had smoked marijuana, but didn't inhale.

It seems small and trifling by contemporary standards, but up until then, illicit drug use by a presidential candidate was considered a deal breaker. If it wasn't why would Slick Willie have spun it with the, "didn't inhale," caveat?

To me personally at the time in my early 20s, his having smoked it pot in the '60s wasn't that big of a deal, but I was personally insulted that he would try to sell me the BS line about not inhaling in a carefully scripted interview to deal with the subject.

I thought to myself, surely, the American people aren't stupid enough to buy this lie, and I thought most Americans would be as insulted as I was that he'd try to peddle this obvious lie to them.

Of course, I was wrong. Enough Americans bought his garbage to elect him that November.

You are right; I had forgotten about that one.

OTOH Clinton got far from 50% in that election. If it hadn’t been for Perot Bush would probably have won the election.

Nevertheless, you are right that msm lies (or msm acceptance of politician’s lies) did then and will probably in the future convince a large portion if not a majority of the population.

They don’t even realize they are admitting to a coup. They are also saying they forced Traitor Joe out because he might lose.

Commander’s bloody head needs to be somewhere. Sadly, whether by temperament or by poor training, that dog is a menace.

Liars.

1) This wasn’t Biden’s decision.
2) It has everything to do with his health.

Biden’s great health....

Was AI involved in the videos of Biden in his running suit leaving the agents behind, gasping. Or his weightlifting and daily circuit training complete with a mountain climb wall and kettlebells?

We thought they were genuine.

He was dozing off while watching Morgan Freeman in Bruce Almighty.

Do you think any democrat party donor in their right mind is going to donate money to Harris? I can’t imagine anyone willing to just flush money away like that

Ha. Me, too. Had to be telephoto shots because he was mostly across and out of sight before the photographer could raise the camera.

Wow. That’s going to be remembered with “”A house divided against itself, cannot stand.”

Imagine the new Kamala quotes coming up.

I feel bad for the dog. His owners did this to him.

I think he should be euthanized, and the dog too.

Not his health, but his increasing bank account.

"The Democrats had this per-planned all along. Think about it, why was their Convention so late this year. So late, they had to get several states to change their laws so they could still be on the ballot. "And why did we have a debate, so early this year. They knew Biden was a goner and they sent him out to fail, so they could kick him off the ballot and install their own candidate. "The only problem was they did NOT plan on it being Kamala. But their DEI crap came back to bite them and they were forced to keep her."

They didn't like it, but did plan plot against Kamala. I expect the throttles will be opened to a raucous convention where B.O. will endorse B.M. for Dem's candidate for President.

:(
