A lot of Democrats are underestimating what a stubborn, selfish asshole Joe Biden is. Which you’d think they’d know, having handed him all this power in the first place.
Right now, pretty much every Democrat who called you a fascist liar three weeks ago — yes, a mere three weeks — is saying the same thing you’ve been saying for four years.
He’s too old. He can barely finish a sentence. At times, he thinks Trump is his vice president. He’s exhausted. He clearly can’t do the job.
You wouldn’t hire him to greet people at Costco, let alone serve as the leader of the free world.
Now they think trying to reason with him will do it. If they just point out the obvious to him, he’ll say, “Well gosh, I guess you’re right. How could I have been so foolish? Thanks, everybody!”
Does that really sound like Joe Biden?
Did the Dems actually convince themselves of the “kindly grandpa” B.S. they’ve been pushing for four years? Did they forget what they put in their own Kool-Aid?
If Biden gave a damn about anybody but himself, he wouldn’t have run at such an advanced age in the first place.1 They dragged him across the finish line in 2020. Now they think he’ll just give it all up because they’re crying?
Trying to wish him away isn’t working. Leaking and planting stories about him wavering isn’t working. This isn’t his first transparently obvious media campaign.
Why would he listen to the people who’ve been propping him up for four years? In his addled mind, they owe him.
What, he’s gonna step down because Obama wants it? They thought the “bromance” crap was real?
Obama picked Biden as his insurance policy in 2008 — “Okay, you racists, if anything happens to me, you’re stuck with this clown” — and Biden knows it. He knows Barry thinks he’s a screwup, and now he’s the one holding all the cards. Obama can pull all the strings he wants behind the scenes, but the Clooney Gambit didn’t work and neither will any of this.
Don’t take it from me, take it from Bidenworld:
“In 2015, Obama, Pelosi, Schumer pushed Biden aside in favor of Hillary; they were wrong then and they are wrong now.”
And:
“Can we all just remember for a minute that these same people who are trying to push Joe Biden out are the same people who literally gave us all Donald Trump?”
Biden thinks he knows better than any of them. After all, he’s the president and they’re not, right?
If they want him out, they’ll need to impeach him and invoke the 25th Amendment. Then they’ll be stuck with Cackles McKneepads.
And Kamala will need to explain why she pretended Joe was in tip-top shape for four years, and then stabbed him in the back the minute it stopped working. I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but she’s not exactly quick on her feet.
The Dems and their pundits and “journalists” can plead with Biden all they want, but all he needs is one word in rebuttal:
“No.”
He can still pronounce that one.
Biden is a bitter, resentful old man who can’t be forced to do anything he doesn’t want to do, because he’s finally sitting on the throne he’s craved his whole life. If they want him out, it’s gonna take more than a few “BREAKING” chyrons on cable news.
“But he can’t possibly win reelection!” Yeah, I know that. You know that. He won’t allow himself to know that. If he admits he can’t win in November, then he has no argument for staying in power at all.
He’s been in Washington since before Twitter. Before CNN. Hell, before Watergate! He was lying to reporters when Obama was still popping his zits in Honolulu.
The old man is a damn barnacle. They’re gonna have to scrape him off, and it might just put a hole in the hull.
Joe Biden doesn’t know much anymore, but he still knows how power works. My money’s on the old bastard giving everybody two middle fingers till they close the casket.
Me? I choose to remember the happier times:
Now watch him drop out 10 minutes after I post this. It would serve me right for acting like I know what I’m talking about!
What a week, huh?
Here are a few things that have happened within the last seven days:
Donald Trump was nearly assassinated, and a Pennsylvania firefighter was murdered in the attempt
The head of the Secret Service was exposed as a complete incompetent
The shooter apparently had no discernible motive
After a series of disastrous media appearances, Joe Biden “got COVID-19” and his party finally turned on him with knives drawn, including Morning Joe
Dr. Ruth died
Richard Simmons died
Bob Newhart died
Lou Dobbs died
Microsoft laid off their whole DEI team
Bob Mendendez finally got nailed for the corruption we’ve all known about for decades
Max Boot’s wife (and occasional co-author) was indicted as an unregistered agent of the South Korean government
Hulk Hogan and Kid Rock appeared at the Republican National Convention, and any living Republican president or vice president did not
Matt Gaetz debuted his new face
Trump made a triumphant appearance at the RNC but then talked for like two freaking hours2
There’s probably a bunch of other stuff I’ve forgotten.
Are you as tired as I am? Say what you want about Trump, but at least he never sleeps!
And yes, Trump fans, that goes for him too. As we all learned this week, he is all too mortal.
An assassination attempt earns you a lot of political capital, but it’s probably best not to spend it all in one night.
Cackles McKneepads-hilarious! Had to resubscribe.
So...
