Are Dems Actually ‘Stuck With Biden’?
Or Are They Playing A Long Con?

Original Article

In the span of two days, articles started appearing making the exact same argument: That Joe Biden will definitely, no questions asked, be the nominee come November. So, naturally, we are left wondering what Democrats have up their sleeve to get the flailing president off the ballot. On Monday, Vox.com published a lengthy article titled “Yes, Democrats, It’s Biden or Bust.” The next day, Politico ran a lengthy piece titled “Get Used to It: Biden Isn’t Going Anywhere.” [snip] We are not suggesting there was plagiarism here, but mainstream journalists aren’t the most independent thinkers on the planet,

Democrats are not that bright. But they are just smart enough to know they don't have to do a thing. Democrats KNOW that Rebublicans will bail them out in a pinch. It shan't be long before the Rebublicans sacrifice one of their own in an act of 'moral responsibility' to ensure the Democrats get out of this pickle. Its the Rebublican way!

Long con.....they article 25 or get him ro accept he has to resign...Harris is POTUS up until November and a new nominee magically appears at the convention. They get to distance themselves from Biden but continue Obamas policies. With enormous help in the media.

This is similar to NFL owners who profess great confidence in their coaches just before firing them. I could see it happen.

Yeah, sure. Remember when McGovern and other Dems were "1,000%" behind Tom Eagleton as the Vice Presidential Nominee. That lasted all of 18 days. Dems are never stuck on anything. They just slither off and switch course. There Lo-Fo voters will go along in lockstep. Just ask Robert Torricelli in New Jersey. It was never, ever too late to replace him, was it.

The MSM players aren't just not independent - they are controlled puppets parroting every day's message one after another word for word. We don't notice because their individual broadcasts are rarely played sequentially. But when that is done the reality of their being 'directed' becomes grotesque and one is forced to ask, 'Who holds the strings?'

They'll keep Biden on the ticket but replace Harris. After they win/steal the election, Biden steps down and the replacement VP (Newsom, M. Obama, whoever) steps in.

It's a long con, not in Chinese terms but long enough. Their timing in tossing Joe out to the trash heap must be impeccable and they must be very careful in selecting who else to dump with him or the whole thing will backfire with leftist voters. They are testing the waters now with Kamala and the rejection of a brown, female dimwit could be a fatal mistake even though the US Government is full of them. Doctor Jill's disappearance will disappoint nobody.

The nominee WILL be Biden. But watch for the Veep nominee. That’s the real play. That is the person who inherit the mantle. Joe Dementia (diaper and all) will be dragged over the top by a formula similar to ‘20. My guess is it will be the Mooch. Who will then drag in Newsome.

One of major stories not being reported by the MSM is the Democrat party’s efforts to keep any challengers to Biden off primary ballots. This will mean that if the DNC decides to dump Biden, it will be a brokered convention where the DNC party elites will choose the presidential candidate with no input from rank and file Democrats. This is as un-democratic a way possible to choose their candidate. It seems to me that the DNC is the biggest threat to democracy.

Remember that “kill switch” mandate for new cars that media fact-checkers years ago assured the public was just a crazy right-wing conspiracy? Well, the federal government recently took the first step toward a rule that would …. require all new cars sold to come with a kill switch. A provision in the bipartisan $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill that President Joe Biden signed in 2021 directed the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to come up with a rule by this year requiring new cars to have “advanced drunk and impaired driving prevention technology.” The law describes this tech as being able to

If there ever were a sign that Canada has gone cuckoo, it has to be a bill introduced in Parliament that would censor speech about fossil fuel. No, we’re not joking, though we hope the bill’s author is. We fear, however, he isn’t. One Charlie Angus, a New Democratic Party member of the House of Commons from Timmins–James Bay in Ontario, has brought before that chamber Bill C-372. It clearly states that “it is prohibited for a person to promote a fossil fuel, a fossil fuel-related brand element or the production of a fossil fuel except as authorized by the provisions of this Act or of the regulations.”

President Joe Biden was too tired or confused to agree to a Super Bowl interview — surely one of the most softball interview opportunities any president could hope for — but did take time to record a video addressing the nation’s most pressing problem: “shrinkflation.” Not only is his complaint utterly misguided, he plagiarized his post from Sen. Elizabeth Warren. Biden said: “When buying snacks for the game you might have noticed one thing: Sports drinks bottles are smaller, bag of chips has fewer chips, but they are still charging us just as much …

With the stunning report by the Justice Department suggesting that President Joe Biden is not mentally fit enough to face charges for mishandling state secrets, it’s now become an open question: Does that mean Biden isn’t mentally fit to be president? Americans are overwhelmingly worried that the answer is no, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows. Mere days before the release of a blockbuster government report that indicated Biden’s age-related mental decline is real and not just a partisan talking point, the I&I/TIPP Poll asked American voters: “President Biden is seeking a second term. How would you rate his mental acuity?”

Sen.

She managed only to reveal how irrelevant and economically ignorant she really is. In a campaign email, a tweet, and a video, Warren complains that consumers are getting ripped off. “Have you ever finished a bag of Doritos and thought, ‘Whoa — there should have been a lot more chips in here’? You were right,” she exclaims.

The ruling class’ obsession with building a carbon dioxide-free world has blinded it to material facts. The Al Gores and Gavin Newsoms and John Kerrys of the West believe they only have to bark orders and seize other people’s money and their green dreams will be realized. When are they going to understand their wishes are not everyone else’s command? There are many examples of the ruling class’ failure to recognize its limitations in regard to energy. The electric vehicle backlash comes to mind. So do the many green “investments” that have turned out to be financial holes of a different color. For this commentary, though,

Joe Biden, even though he did take and secrete away secret documents and such, will not be charged with any crime related to what are acts quite similar to those for which Donald Trump was charged with crimes. In his report explaining his decision, Special Counsel Robert Hur said today that Biden was too far removed from reality for a jury to convict him of a crime. In other words, Biden did it, Biden broke the law, but he is too mentally deficient for anyone to believe he either really did it on purpose or, after the fact, could

Recently, the legislature in my home state of Alabama told public four-year colleges to report how much they spend on “diversity, equity and inclusion.” The amount: $16.2 million. Are taxpayers getting anything for this money? DEI advocates say it’s a good investment. Paulette Granberry Russell, the president of the National Association of Diversity Officers in Higher Education, says that anti-DEI legislation ultimately would prevent historically marginalized students from fully engaging in higher education. But is that true? To find out, I looked at spending on DEI programs at prominent colleges and enrollment of black students at those schools.

But now that Trump is leading in polls, the left is talking ominously about a “coup.” Pay attention, because if Trump wins in 2024, this will be how the left tries to stop him from getting anything done.

Former President Donald Trump continues to face legal charges on his return path to the presidency, while current President Joe Biden carries his age, fading mental acuity, and charges of corruption as he seeks a second term. So who has the edge now in the head-to-head electoral matchup for 2024? Thanks to solid independent voter backing, Trump still edges out Biden, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows. Trump wins 43% of the overall vote, while Biden gets 41% in the national online I&I/TIPP Poll, taken from Jan. 31-Feb. 2, with 1,266 registered voters participating. The poll has an overall +/-2.8 percentage-point margin of error.

The political left argues that the immigrants illegally crossing our borders are in search of better lives, and that those who want to stop the flood are hateful, heartless bigots and racists. Morality is a certainly central to the dilemma, but it’s not the morality that much of the Democratic Party wants everyone to believe it is. An average of more than 200,000 immigrants a month have illegally jumped America’s southern border during Joe Biden’s three years in the White House, almost four times the monthly rate of crossings under Donald Trump. By any fair description, our southern border is open, and this has created a humanitarian crisis

And I thought that was something that we should all aspire to. So to me this movement is going totally opposite the teachings of Jesus.”

A California lawmaker has proposed an ambitious plan to raise the minimum wage to $50 per hour. Democratic Representative Barbara Lee argued that, due to the affordability crisis in the San Francisco Bay Area, a family of four needs at least $127,000 to survive. Lee's proposal means that minimum wage workers would earn more than $100,000 per year. She made these comments while debating with Reps Adam Schiff (D-CA), Katie Porter (D-CA) and Republican Steve Garvey. Schiff and Porter have both called for the minimum wage to be increased to at least $20 an hour. However, Garvey has resisted raising

Given the wholesale disaster that has been the Biden presidency, one has to wonder how it all happened. We have all seen the Democrat party become radicalized, almost purely Marxist, since the Obama administration. Obama promised to transform the country and he surely did. He effectively drove race relations backward by seventy years. It is common knowledge that Obama despised his VP Biden. Why he was chosen to be his VP in the first place is anybody’s guess. Biden was a known jerk, a racist (his mentor was KKK member/aficionado Robert Byrd), rather dumb, a plagiarist, and a pathological liar.

George Soros, the left’s favorite billionaire, is buying up American radio stations by the hundreds, ahead of the 2024 election. This is obviously part of a strategy, because that’s what Soros does. He hatches backdoor plans to exert influence over American politics. A few years back, he pumped a ton of cash into district attorney races across the country and we all know how that worked out. This is his new plan. Could there be more to this than gaining media influence? The Washington Times reports:
