The Democrats’ “Biden Trap”
We are seeing more and more Democrat-allied reporting these days designed to make Democrat voters think of the Biden presidency like Republicans have since 2020. There is speculation that they are going to jettison Biden before the November elections. But the problem is: how do you do it, and what rationale do you use without it doing more harm than good for the party?
There are three reasons Biden should go:
- He is mentally incapable of performing the duties of president.
- He is corrupt.
- His policies harm the nation.
Progressives will never push him out over #3 because those policies are their policies.
So how do you choose between #1 and #2? The slam dunk is #2, if you just do any reporting on the Hunter connection. But having colluded to “hide the ball” in 2020, how do they use the corruption without exposing their collusion? And since everyone knows that the only reason you are exposing it now is for some political advantage that made you collude then, it doesn’t gain votes (even if it may save you losing more votes than you already lost). And they would likely try to get Biden to resign (a la Nixon) and might have to have a deal for a pardon of the Biden, Inc., participants.
#1 is a very obvious reason for taking action and can even be accomplished involuntarily. But, again, the “basement campaign” strategy was a “hide the ball” action just with a different thing to hide. So you end up in the same place, with the same outcomes, as #2. So the Democrats have a “damned if you do, damned if you do, damned if you don’t” dilemma.
Was displacing Trump worth it for the Democrats? It’s hard to imagine how Biden’s presidency has been worth it for any TDS Republicans who are not part of the WEF crowd or industries that benefit therefrom. It is also hard to imagine how it has been worth it to any independents or Kennedy-style Democrats who are just working class. Where did the Democrats think this would all end up? You would think they could see it coming, but then again they seem to think that destroying the nation will work out well for them.

Buttigieg has been doing as many campaign style events as any candidate running for President. He shows up all over the country handing out Federal $$$.
As long as Biden adheres to the policy dogma being put forth by our shadow president Kerry, Biden is not going anywhere. IMO.
Dat’s just beautiful!
Joe Biden is in Israel?
It’s hard to imagine any country wanting him to visit in his obviously questionable health. There must have been some amusing dialog in the foreign office worthy of Yes, Minister.
“Wait, what, he’s coming here? Whose bright idea was that?”
“The Democrats have an election coming up soon. They are trying to appear ‘pro-Israel.’ You know how that goes.”
“What if he gets sicker or has a stroke while he’s here? It’ll be an international incident.”
“Don’t worry, Minister. The ambulances, hospitals, and doctors are on standby and ready for anything. And we’ve told the Americans to keep the engines running on Air Force One, just in case we need to send him home in a hurry. No matter what happens, we’ll make sure he is still getting oxygen as long as he’s on Israeli soil.” :-)
I like it.
Biden runs nothing but keeps the USG off the Chinese. That Russia is struggling so horrendously with the Ukraine should tell us how they are not a threat. Trump was right they should be an ally against China, but Putin is old school Soviet and won’t change, still we should have kept it obvious that we could be helpful allies. Biden is the threat because he’s in the pocket of the Chinese for obvious reasons. We’re being destroyed and Democrats still support Biden and will support any other Democrat. Moreover, they will attempt to steal the next election but can’t invent 10 to 15 percent of the vote outside of NY and California. We can’t go along with the fraud like we did last time, so if fraud keeps the democrats in power, we have to begin seriously exploring how Republican run states can separate and if the presidential election is also stolen, we’ll have no choice. Otherwise it’s over. Definitively over in a way few people understand.
