Why Is Biden Running? A Theory
It’s tempting, and easy, to dismiss Biden running for reelection as hubris on his part, or else his “puppet masters” doing so in order to keep running the government behind the scenes. I had another thought for your consideration and discussion.
What if the plan is for Biden to run through the primary season, then shortly before the convention announce that he’s no longer physically up to the job and withdraw, pledging all his delegates to whichever candidate the establishment wants? This would allow them to avoid some of the crazies in their ranks that might otherwise win the nomination and loose the general.
Am I giving the Democrat establishment too much credit by even suggesting this level of foresight and planning?

Really? I thought Portland was working to keep up (down?) with San Fran, not the other way around!
“Gavin” was probably their clue.
If he runs and wins, it’s just another 4-yr term for Pharaoh Obama. If he doesn’t run, Hillary will assert her ‘inevitability’ again. So they don’t want that and know that Biden will be a puppet to be handled. This is one more battle in the war between Hillary and Obama.
This is the plan for sure. I’m also certain that our worthless, authoritarian, hypocritical, silver-spoon-having, born-on-home-base-and-thinks-he-built-the-stadium, member-of-a-family-that-can’t-stand-each-other, and — worst of all — BEARS fan, Gov. J.B. Pritzker is spending lots of his inherited money in out-of-state races so that he can be considered on the shortlist.
Fed, Rested and Ready. He wants it so bad he can taste it.
(Yes, this is a large picture…just like JB.)
And did such a great job as Gov. Can’t wait to see the debates with him and Gov. French Laundry. Who lost the most wealthy taxpayers to Florida and Texas? Doubt the count will be close.
That picture of JB is awesome. I can just hear him thinking, as he glances up from what I like to think is a menu, “The children. Yes. Next I shall eat the children. Or perhaps, a gold-encrusted filet of unicorn …”
Don’t they all. Aren’t they all?
To be fair, Newsome does have better hair gel.
You have no idea how bad it was in Pricksterville. Combine Governor Emergency Declaration with Cook County President Toni Taxwinkle and the myriad mandates…it was dreadful. As I fled to Florida for a few weeks respite I breathed a maskless sigh of relief, happy to see smiling faces once again. People either forget too easily, or they are true believers.
Yeah, Gavin MacLeod probably isn’t a popular search term right now.
That and “some.” You’d probably get the same result from “gavin loathsome.”
Let’s not forget those thrilling days of yesteryear when ole Jay Bob removed the toilets of a building he bought to avoid paying Cook County property tax!! Taxes for thee but not for me!
Then there are the horses…the sport of Kings! Darling daughter rides horses, so they need a farm in Wisconsin and Florida! Dear daughter had to take her Insta private when she posted maskless bikini photos from Florida while everyone in Illinois was living Daddy’s La Vida Mandate. But she’s not the brightest light on the string so all those pics are free for anyone to envy once again!!
(Do you get a sense of my opinion of these people?)
Not with the same ubiquity.
I second this theory! Also, if Biden is ever caught “red-handed”, he’s not culpable due to his cognitive deficiencies and whoever is behind the curtain running the show will get away with it – we will never know who the star chamber members are exactly and they will go on to keep fomenting their destruction.
I had to look this up.
Grant had two VPs. So did Jefferson, Madison, Jackson, and Lincoln.
How about Cleveland?
Yes, he did, too.
The First Democrat elected after the Civil War, Grover Cleveland was the only President to leave the White House and return for a second term four years later.
Is President Trump prepared to be the second such President?
You know that Mayor Pete (a self-identified “moderate progressive”) is still running for President. Many Never-Trumpers of all parties would rally around him.
He doesn’t strike me as the robber baron type. Look at him! Svelte.
There’s certainly room to rally under his hairstyle. It also doubles as an umbrella, in inclement weather.
