The sharks are begging to accumulate off the coast of the Biden administration, as his popularity falls along with his cognitive functioning. The current polling has him at or near the lowest ever recorded for a sitting president. His party is in a panic over the upcoming midterm elections. There is an obvious shift going on in the media where they signal that it is time to think about what comes after Joe Biden. Now the first dorsal fins of potential replacements are showing up in the water.
The first fin to pop up was that of Gavin Newsom, the current governor of California and former mayor of San Francisco. He recently ran an ad in Florida telling the locals that their state is terrible, they smell like feet and the smart ones should leave the filthy place and come to California. Presumably, his team thinks this is a way to pick a fight with Ron DeSantis, who has become a bogeyman for his cult. They seem to have forgotten that Florida is a critical swing state in elections.
Newsom turning up at the White House while Biden is visiting Israel suggests that the people in charge wanted to send a message. A child of extreme privilege, Newsom got richer by partnering with the fourth so of oil tycoon John Paul Getty. They started a winery and then a private equity firm that targeted entertainment properties catering to the managerial elite. Newson got bored with that and bought himself a mayoral office and then the governorship of California.
To his credit, he is one of the few politicians alive today who has ever signed the front of a paycheck and done any sort of real work. Granted, these are silly businesses that look like they were underwritten to make his resume look good. Boutique wineries and hipster restaurants are different from making car parts or fixing refrigeration units, but it at least looks like real work. He will no doubt run as a self-made man who knows how businesspeople struggle in these difficult times.
Another fin in the water is Gretchen Whitmer. She is up for reelection and has been getting lots of favorable news coverage. She gets to speak to important Democratic party groups and was on Biden’s short list of VP choices. He passed on her as she is too ambitious. The people around Biden had him select Harris as a form of life insurance policy. Just as no one would take out Obama with Biden as VP, no one is going to take out Biden with Harris as VP.
Whitmer’s resume is the dreary stuff we have come to expect. She has been on the dole her whole life. Her biggest claim to fame is the kidnapping hoax, which may have started as a campaign trick. It is hard to know, but so far, we know it was orchestrated by the FBI and not the patsies they put on trial. Her former lawyer seems to be involved with the FBI handlers. The whole thing is a seedy example of FBI corruption but also how big a role they play in politics.
The final fin in the water of Kamala Harris. Up until a few weeks ago, she was programmed to chant about how she looked forward to running with Biden in 2024 whenever asked about it. Someone swapped out her response code with a new response designed to give the impression she hopes Biden dies soon. This is probably the only way she ever becomes president. Even with support from Biden she stands little chance of winning the nomination on her own in 2024.
The main reason for looking at this is to note the long term planning that goes on with presidential candidates. Rich people thought Newsom could be president twenty-five years ago so they have been grooming him for this moment. That is a long term commitment to a project. The same is true of Whitmer. The kidnapping hoax is the sort of thing you do when you think she can run ten years hence as a tough independent female who stood up to the patriarchy as a governor.
The other interesting thing about the fins sticking out of the water is the Democrats are going to look for a white person in 2024. Harris ticks the brown boxes, but the wrong brown boxes as far as Democratic voters are concerned. Look around at other potential fins in the water and they all look like great whites as well. The Left’s commitment to diversity is like Pelosi and Biden’s commitment to Catholicism. It is a ceremonial item that has no bearing on how they live or think.
This is something the dullards in conservatism, which is pretty much all of conservatism, never seem to grasp. The chanting about white supremacy, antiracism, diversity and so on is a uniform these people wear to signal their commitment to their class. Fifty years ago, they walked around in brand new work clothes to signal their solidarity with the working man. Today they wear the language of diversity, inclusion and equity to show their solidarity with the swarthy fellows tending their gardens.
Putting all of that aside, the next six months promise some good political entertainment as the number of fins in the water reaches critical mass. While there is no reason to vote for Republicans, there are enough people mad at the economy to switch both the House and the Senate this fall. That will lead to a public debate about what to do with the aging Joe Biden. Do they let him serve out his term or do they push him down a flight of stairs after the election?
A year ago, the way to bet was on the unexpected tumble, but Harris has been so bad that swapping Biden for her is probably a bad bet. The people running the White House need Biden in place as they secure new places in the next regime. That means they put out word that Biden is re-thinking his 2024 plans. Sometime in the winter he announces his retirement after his first term in office. That also shifts the focus from the failures of Biden to the future failures of the next regime.
On the other hand, the 2020 election says that anything is possible so Biden running and winning in 2024 is not unthinkable. The beautiful people love firsts so he can be the first man in a coma to win election. Maybe the first man with a single digit approval rating to win reelection. After all, he was the first man to lose the first four primaries and still win his party’s nomination. He also got eighty million votes in the general election, which says that in America anything is possible.

For a second there I thought you were going to call Democrats the real racists.

Those gosh-darn Democrats are making the negroes shoot each other!

p.s.- today Morning Joe honored the founder of the Bethune school. A child of former slaves, her parents were so oppressed by Southern racism and poverty they only had 17 children.
it’s kind of funny but it doesn’t look like biden gets to enjoy his ill gotten gains much. he doesn’t live in a particularly lavish way, and he won’t be around much longer either. and that doesn’t even begin to address how his advanced dementia limits his ability to spend his graft. same goes for the clintons. i wonder why this is; maybe they are incapable of anything but feeding their ambition??
obama for all his other faults, does seem to know what a good time is, and how to have one 😛

He knows what a good time is but he’s not smart enough to shut the Hell up and just fade away.

100 bucks for any pix of Michael pregnant.

It’s not even like they can enjoy knowing they created a family dynasty. Hunter will die of an overdose, Ashley is still a wreck from showering with Dad, and Chelsea is a moron. So the Biden/Clinton empires will be gone in 10 years.
2
Joe Biden has done exactly what he was installed to do: make fuel costs unaffordable, start a hot war with Russia, deprive Americans of their basic human rights and civil liberties, oppress and harass White people to the point of genocide, and most of all to further enrich the Clouds, his family, and his friends. Viewed from that perspective, Biden has been a smashing success.
If Joe Biden has accomplished the goals of those who stole the election and put a compliant vegetable into the Oval Office, he will be shuffled off to the sanitarium. Think “throw down president,” like the guns cops keep on them to plant on people they murder.
If Joe Biden has not accomplished everything on his installers’ wish list, the election will be rigged again while he hides in another basement. The propaganda organs will notice a new pep in his step, and the loyal controlled opposition will announce new ways to work with the puppet.
The United States, y’all.
19
Indeed. If they were smart, they would allow for a sliver of legitimacy in 2022/4 and turn the gas pumps back to $3.75/gallon. That’s all it would take for another generation of White men to sit on their thumbs while the boomers shuffle off still having a few of their nice things and the whole melting pot turns brown beyond recognition.
Normiecons could celebrate the this is how the System works! Civnats could show a win for the Constitution and muh diversity natural conservative votes.
And the rest of the sheeples could snack on the crumbs of 2019 new normal while their hearts slowly swell to SADS and the NFL pretends that the great kneeling never happened as the rainbow forms over soldier field, cue the black anthem.
By the time the next conservative sellout, crisis, war, constitutional diaper full of feces comes around the transition will be complete.

If they were smart

I see an issue already.
It’s not, I guess, that they’re ‘dumb’ in the classic sense, but…’divorced from reality’ might be the best way to put it. They’re not really the types to bottle up their worst urges even for a tactical advantage if they think that they can go unchallenged.

how are his backers making money in this economy?! maybe they are, but it seems like all assets classes are trending down…

That’s the great thing about the market. You can make money betting in either direction, providing you know which direction its going. Plus, there’s always the money that we’re told is going to Ukraine but will wind up in his “backers’” pockets.
5
The simple secret is called “options”. You don’t actually own anything or take delivery…on paper.
The other is CAFR “public portfolio investment management.” Your shell companies are proxies, portfolio advisors walk you through the paperwork of what they have on offer.
Family and charitable unit trusts are too. You don’t “own” anything, but have 100% management control.
Just imagine the 1001 tricks a rube like me never heard of. As Goldman says, “it’s Egyptian generals all the way down.” (The military generals own everything valuable in Egypt- factories, ports, warehouses, businesses, rights, apartment blocks, everything.) Congress, by proxy shells, are 535 oligarchs who own a large chunk of 75% of the listed corporations. Patricians of the New England aristocratic class.
12% yearly average, my azz.
Congressionals have 15 to 20 of these deals sitting on their desk every week. And a ghostwritten book advance if you need some quick cash, or unused campaign coffers to leverage against.
Even Jen Psaki scored a couple million in 2 years on $183k annual salary. Of course, I’d still nail that even if she wasn’t rich. My kind of cray-cray, don’t be jelly!

There are Great White Sharks swimming, and then there’s a White Whale who has surfaced:
https://www.currentaffairs.org/2022/07/is-j-b-pritzker-the-democrats-only-hope-for-2024
The blimpish Governor of Silly-nois thinks he has a chance at the Presidency in 2024, or the Vice Presidency. Sheer madness, but in this climate, who knows?
9
now that’s funny!
surprised zman didn’t mention the she-whale of Chappaqua 😛
2
Pritzker is too ridiculous to take seriously, even in this age, which is saying something. Then again, never say never.
Clinton seems to be done. The pattern with her has been that she runs when she thinks the game is rigged in her favor. They killed JFK Jr. so she could get a senate seat. Then she ran in 2008 assuming Obama was an empty suit. In 2016 the path was cleared so she could run largely unopposed. In 2024, there will be a packed field. That and she is a two time loser who will be pushing 80. With Biden’s age being an issue, the regime will want a younger person to face Trump in 2024 so they can call him too old.
18
I also think the Obama people are more than ready for the Clintons to go away. Look at the way they didn’t pull out all the stops to save Terry McAuliffe in Virginia last year. A lot of people even in the party hate the Clintons.
10
Pritzker is Fatty Arbuckle’s version of The Great Dictator, emphasis on “tator”. 😛
4
“They killed JFK Jr” as opposed to the fool thought he was Top Gun ready?
8
2
The accident in which JFK Junior died was a sadly common example of continued VFR flight into instrument meteorological conditions, spatial disorientation and loss of control. It almost happened to me once.
11
Yeah, I remember the investigation report on that. Dude had no business flying.
10
Wow, some folks really do believe everything the authorities tell them, huh?
Whitmer was one of the most odious human beings on the face of the earth. One just has to look at one of her press conferences to just feel the vile evil emanating from every pore in her body. She makes Hillary look likable. An the people she put in positions of power are somehow worse. Go ahead and do an Early Life check on Michigan AG Nessel and be prepared to not be surprised.
She also got a big black eye with her Covid overreach, to the point she had to back way off because she was starting to get on very shaky ground with prospects for reelection and outright citizen rebellion. Of course, the FBI arrested one of her main opponents in the next election, which shows the next stage of the political game.
A lot of the persona revolves around things like wearing leather jackets public in appearances, the Big Gretch meme, and other kitchy things that come across okay at the state level, but weird in the federal show. It’s all too fake for even Washington.
16
The polling for Whitmer’s reelection numbers has been comically high. They have her beating all potential challengers by double digits and polling over 50%. It doesn’t seem like they are even trying to fake this one in a believable way.
10
she comes across like mengele’s daughter.
8
2
Kinda looks like him too. Funny but her nickname in high school was “Stretchin’ Gretchen”. You can fill in the blank there.
6
She’s kind of MILFy in a Bride-of-Frankenstein way, so she’s got that going for her. I mean, I don’t know if I would hit on her in the grocery store, but she could certainly shoplift my morning wood and I wouldn’t complain.
5
4
you can tell by her jaw she has very high T, so she will bang like a rocket on rails. watch out for the strap-on though, you just know she is a champion pegger!
1
Eventually the people of Michigan managed to prompt the state legislature and judiciary to get a lot of Whitmer’s emergency coof powers canceled.
That may be a moot point this autumn since the Marxists are clearly going for broke.
1
One thing not mentioned is the externals to the USA which might end Biden. Turkey, Pakistan, South Africa and Lebanon are about to collapse. That’s bad. Ukraine is gone and Taiwan not far behind. No way of telling what will happen before the next election in 2024 but there is nothing that looks good for the Democrat party regime.
12
Sri Lanka not about to, but actually has collapsed. Add Venezuela to your list.
6
They sacked the presidential palace in Armenia yesterday.
6
Ah yes, good times…………
Stranger In a Strange Land: I wish Sri Lanka would, in that great AINO statesman’s words, “tip over” and vanish beneath the waves. All inhabitants included.
Whitmer is nothing but a nasty, younger version of HRC – even kind of looks like her. The only reason anyone outside of Michigan has heard of her was the covid scamdemic where she acted the tough girl dictator role to a “T”. Newsome is a smarmy little s***. He may have some quasi “business” experience, but his California political life proves he couldn’t give two craps about the state’s businesses or working people. Screw ‘em both along with cameltoe. The entire demoncrapic party is populated by narcissistic degenerates.
15
I think Newson is the best bet for them in 2024. He would crush Trump in debates and offer a fresh young option to the geezers running things now. He may be a feckless airhead, but that is a feature, not a bug.
13
6
trump isn’t the play in 2024. De Santis is, and now who wins the debates? Newsom is more vulnerable than you think…
11
Trump will run and win the nomination. It will be his final screw you to his supporters.
10
1
Trump supporters live in an alternate reality. They still think he was the best president in history. If you go to places like Freerepublic, they will viscously attack anyone who suggests nominating anyone else as if Trump is entitled to the nomination.
1
want to bet? 😛

Last nite Tucker got a laugh out of Biden misinterpreting a recent poll saying “92 % of democrats support me”. The poll actually said 92% of dems would vote for Biden against Trump in 2024. Think about that – in spite of how much damage has been done since Jan 2021, 92% of dems prefer continuing down the Biden toilet, just so long as it’s NOT Trump in the WH. Pure spiteful culture war reasoning (but reality) and Biden would love nothing better than “winning” against Trump – again. Imagine how sweet the victory against middle America!
Trump’s become a liability to us now – the king of Lost Opportunity. He served his purpose (until he refused to deliver) and, worst of all, proved he has zero loyalty. In other words, he’s the thing he despises most – a Loser.
2
I’m not so sure. Problem with all these CA pols is they’ve come up in a an “appointment” system and rarely have to compete for spots unless its a “blue on blue” primary race. Newsom has always gotten to spew his empty suit nonsense to adoring audiences that never ask tough questions. OTH they elected an Alzheimers patient as President….
6
That is something that cannot be ignored. Thirty years ago there was some value in taking down a pol, regardless of party. The media is monolithic now and anyone asking the wrong questions of the wrong candidate risks expulsion. That was a lesson of 2020. They knew Biden was a vegetable, but no one dared say it. In 2024, the Dems could run a spree killer and any mention of it will be called a conspiracy theory. Just look at the Ray Epps story. The guy is literally in video telling people to sack the Capitol. Mentioning it is a conspiracy theory. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/05/05/us/jan-6-ray-epps-evidence.html
7
And unlike Trump, Newsome has Presidential hair. That matters as much as anything else at this point. Especially to the latinos. Newsome already looks like he could be running any of the South American narco states. He was selected long ago. Embrace the hair, it’s the future.
15
1
There has long been a theory that the winning candidate is the one most people would prefer to have a beer with. Since suburban white women don’t drink beer, I would amend the formula to add the variable of: the candidate suburban white women can fantasize about being their white knight. So yeah, Newsom’s hair will be our next president.
4
1
The bid negative I see with Newsom is that most Americans have soured on California and have a negative view of the state. They don’t want what California elites have brought to their state implemented for the whole country. The only people moving there now are carny trash hoping to make it in the entertainment industry. Millions have left and they have replaced them with third worlders. Maybe they are dumb enough to vote for Newsom in their new states, but I doubt it.
7
I am not sure it really matters what voters think. If the system can add 5-10% more votes in critical states when needed, elections no longer really matters. The only counter to systemic ballot stuffing is a massive shift in voter sentiment. Maybe that happens. To college educated whites, Newson will sound like a reasonable alternative to the crude and old Donald Trump.
11
Outside of CA and NY, most states see California as a disaster with nice weather. Having controlled CA during its decline, Newsom will somehow have to dodge the charge he will Californicate the rest of the country. Maybe that gets enough to insulate against the fraud factor.
6
Probably why team trump brought in newsome’s ex wife, trot her out to dish on all the weird and abusive things Gavin did ti her
Whatever the case, they probably, figured she’d be their silver bullet. Many aspects of the trump jr and Gavin ex wife thing seem designed for such a future contest
1
gee, i wonder if old hillary has noticed the same things you have? 😛
1
Whitmer also comes pre-packaged with her own pair of man-hating Scissor Sisters in the form of State AG Nessel and Secretary of State Benson who are both awful people in their own right. Both of them were heavily involved in the lockdown and voting scams. I believe Benson has ties to at least one Soros org.
1
I don’t see why the Dems should worry. If they fail to rig the election and the moderate Dems (the Pubs) take over, so what.
There may be some concern about needing to keep the people happy election-wise but I don’t know why there should be.
I’m a conspiracy theorist. I think our rulers, at home and abroad, realize that this is going to be the pan-Asian century and that America, hansomely endowed in natural resources, will be a satellite ripe for the plunder.
The ruling class, following the Bidens, may bid to be America’s resident managers much like the Bosnian Muslims managed the Dalmation coast when the Ottoman Turks took over following the fall Venice and the defeat of the Serbs at the Battle of Kosovo in 1389. Sadly, centuries later, the Bosnial Muslims, fully integrated into Yugoslavia and Slavs themselves, paid the price of their ancestors’ derelection.
We may not have to wait seven hundred years for history, allowing for context, to replay one of its modern Western hits.
10
Well, shoot, the Saudis swooped in to paint over the 600 year-old frescos in Bosnia’s Grand Mosque.
A fresh coat of white paint, for free! And from America’s other Most Valuable Ally, to boot!
1
The only thing that keeps me voting really is the Supreme Court. Roe was a nice overturn due to what a terrible ruling it was, but 70% of abortions are in blue states, so not much actual change. However, if Hillary had won, the court would be 7-2 liberal, with the 2 conservatives being the oldest members. The second amendment would be gone. Every restriction on gun ownership would be upheld. That’s not a small thing.
8
1
True but not a hot enough take and therefore will be met with sneering. Go edgier
1
Something I saw speculated on recently that in any other time would have immediately dismissed as “absurd political conspiracy theory”. Biden gets “Kennedy’d”. There is a certain horrible logic to it and Lord knows the people in charge are craven enough. Solves several problems. Gets him out of office. Gives The Party a bloody shirt to wave. Allows for a massive crackdown on firearms, anybody that looks vaguely right wing and dwarfs any other issues in the election. I’m sure some handlers at the FBI are frantically spinning Rolodexes of candidates now.
14
1
Yeah, but getting someone to do that is much more difficult than turning the heat up on one of the nutters they’ve got simmering in a pot somewhere. There’s actual planning involved, and the FBI are really very stupid these days.
I mean, best of luck to them, of course.
5
1
Agree. But that would even consider it a non-zero probability is testament to the utter weirdness of the 2000s. These are people that think nothing of burning down whole parts of cities or daring the Russkies to nuclear war. But yes they are stupid and that’s the problem. Stupid people think in the moment. Only.
3
Put that way, it sounds like a sure winner. Inevitable, even.
Wait! I’ve got it!
Give him a cue card that says something about Dimona and how he’s going to break the CIA into a thousand pieces! He’ll read it verbatim.
2
After learning of the Epstein “suicide”, I believe nothing is off limits for these people.
5
If I were more naive, I would say that Americans saw how nasty Whitmer’s lockdown was and want none of it… but she’s probably going to get reelected by the very people who were negatively affected by that lockdown, so I’m not going to get my hopes up that more than half of the rest of the country would reject her.
It’s very difficult to live amicably with “neighbors” who prefer tribal allegiance over horribly shitty politicians who should be in jail for crimes against humanity.
20
And so the “great sorting” will continue.
4
She’s elected due to vote stuffing in Detroit and Ann Arbor while the Michigan GOP makes sure to pick awful candidates to make sure the cheating isn’t too severe.
4
Any halfway credible challengers to big Gretch are getting knocked off the ballot via the courts or thrown in jail.
3
I’m going out on a limb and betting on Hillary Clinton for the run and the win in 2024. She’s crawling out from the filthy rock under which she’s been hiding. She’ll reluctantly agree to enter the Democrat primary and will win in a rigged contest.
Republicans will throw the election by fixing their primary so a “moderate” neocon type wins, like a Pompeo or maybe even Pence. Trump voters will sit out the election en masse, resulting in the lowest turnout election in decades for team Red. Hillary wins 300+ electoral votes with fewer than 70MM popular votes.
18
3
Though the Dems may be looking at that under 30 polling and thinking another geriatric geezer is a bad idea.
2
1
Here’s the quandary – are elections tilted or full-on rigged? Do they need someone attractive to voters or can they place Hillary, heat rock and all, in office regardless of how anyone feels about it?
11
If it’s a neo-cohen versus Hillary they won’t bother rigging since in that case the election is heads I win tails you lose.
8
1
They can probably tilt it so far that it may as well be completely rigged but they do seem to want to get it close enough to preserve plausible deniability for legitimacy or even nostalgia. Biden was probably just a bit farther over that line than they would have preferred to step.
Hillary will be 76 in 2024. 80 at the end of her term.
When that generation looses their grip on power, the blowback against old people is going to be terrible. (And unjustifiable…we’re talking about a 1% clique)
That limb you’re out on is quite the doozy.
https://s1.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/04/64/54/4645413_9bbcfcfb_1024x1024.jpg
I’ve got young leftists in my family. 🙁 They are stampeding sheep like their shriveled predecessors. However, I have noticed that they have been programmed at college to say “eat the rich” and “no Hillary Clinton.”
This is not a high vote turnout demographic, but it is a warning sign that perhaps the post-marxian faction of the Democrat Party has had quite enough of the Democrat-flavored crony corporatist faction. If I believed that anyone other than Dominion’s investors decided who wins elections, I would say that these people seem to be able to be reprogrammed overnight, so who can tell what the state of play will be at the moment of decision. We can at least say that the oppressed corrupt white multimillionaire vagina grift doesn’t have its historical traction.
8
That is a good point. The Inner Party will probably face their own “Trump Issue” the next prez primary where a famous hard leftist (unlike the right, there is no shortage of those on the left) will tilt the polls so badly that even the overt cheating from 2020 won’t be enough.
Meanwhile the hard gatekeeping from the GOP will probably make a third party run inevitable.
2
One can only hope that all the secret Hitlers come out of hiding and start throwing their bombs soon. Isn’t it amazing how well all these oppressed vibrants, filthy jews and women are doing these days? The Fourth Reich really needs to step up its game.
9
I’ve had similar thoughts. Hillary could run on a promise to serve only one term as a “Democratic unification” candidate. But I think that she’d have to have a black or at least Hispanic running mate and the pickings are slim.
AND someone who checks at least one of the LGBTQ… boxes.
2
that would be hillary. and she does more than just ‘check’ boxes, just ask Alma-whats-her-name
4
The number of registered voters in the US is 133 million.
Donald J. Trump got 74 million.
So how again did Biden walk away with 81 million votes?
9
My suspicion all along was they probably inflated trump’s votes too
They probably figured trump would legitimately get 70 million votes but they weren’t sure so had to make sure they had a large enough buffer with Biden so he wouldn’t lose. But saying Biden got 80 million votes would be a hard sell — unless the election was so amazingly historic that trump himself got historic vote totals.
So they had to inflate trump votes just enough as the day progressed to keep it believable while also ensuring there was no way for Biden to lose
Either way the election was a complete sham
7
It still would make more sense to just go with Trump’s actual tally, and pad Biden’s with just enough fake ballots to win. My hunch is that most of the magical Biden votes came from the corrupt California system, where they pad the popular vote with illegals and every other means, to support the repeal of the electoral college. They only needed a few hundred thousand fake ballots in three states to actually win.
2
Yeah, but it just strikes me as implausible that trump went from 63mm in 2016 to 74mm in 2020
Maybe I’m wrong but that seems sketchy
And for Biden to swamp obama’s vote total by over 15mm is farcical
Like I say, the whole thing was a sham
2
Hilary couldn’t even beat Trump. She’s unelectable. She’s got DECADES worth of political baggage, is a detestable human being, and has the charisma of a rattlesnake. Run any “acceptable” (R) against her, and she’d be lucky to win 20 states.
That said, the (D) election-stealing machine really learned how to get it done in 2020, so they just might be able to drag her poisonous hide across the line in 2024.
1
“The people around Biden had him select Harris as a form of life insurance policy. Just as no one would take out Obama with Biden as VP, no one is going to take out Biden with Harris as VP.”
You may wish to meditate further on the internal contradictions here before resting this claim. If the “life insurance” is good enough to be the next candidate, what kind of insurance is that?
4
It’s just another sign of the downhill slope we’re on. Arguably, at least at the time, Clinton’s VP was better than he was. Later, the story was that W chose Dr. Evil for VP because he wanted to give his administration gravitas (and arguably it probably wouldn’t have mattered if either one was president of that administration). Then we have Obama choosing the worst contender for the job, a candidate so awful that it took several attempts at rigging just to get him on the ballot for his presidential run. Biden in turn does the same thing Obama did.
It’s the third world dictator mode where the “second in command” is someone with no power base and/or from a hated ethnic group.

One thing that cannot be dismissed is the ambition of Jill, or the fact that the last thing dementia will mitigate is Biden’s bloated ego. His propensity for self-importance and resolute commitment to thinking his whispers and mic drops “clear the room” will only be erased by an incident—he will never retire, nor will Jill stand by and let them push him out willingly.
20
That’s Dr Jill BTW, you sexist pig
21
That’s DOCTOR Jill, and don’t you forget it you knuckle dragging, mouth breathing, gun toting, Bible thumping deplorable.

Good point on the role of [Dr.] Jill Biden. She has no intention of going quietly back to Wilmington to watch Joe drool in the corner. Expect her to be seeking to find skeletons in every potential challenger’s closet and to be adroit and ruthless in the timing of making them public. She has almost nothing to lose.
11
I wish her all the luck in the world.

The Reverend Dr Jill L. Biden Junior is a baby sitter who sucked her way to the white house, she mighr have ambition but she has none of the ability necessary to accomplish any grandiose plan. She’s got a big mouth but not big enough for every man in America to fit in at once. Plus she’s too old to entice potential johns. Same reason kamala is topping out now, call it the glass headboard.
1
Dr. Jill will likely get maneuvered into a position where she does not have a choice. The Biden family finances are a target rich environment, plus they can threaten to arrest Hunter which I don’t think Joe would stand for. She is also pretty dumb as anyone who skimmed her doctoral work can attest. I wouldn’t assume she has the ability to hold off the wolves trying to force Joe out.
2
That Jill Biden would give a public speech confirming the ludicrous trope that multiculturalism mainly means diverse dining options show her lack of political acumen.
I’ll bet the good Doctor has paid plenty of Mexicans under the table for years for unskilled labor, but hasn’t had a taco (it’s prole food, people) in decades.
OT: not seeing any push for “Impossible Tacos” out there..,because Mexicans aren’t that stupid.
The donkeys are going to be very much inclined to nominate a female for 2024, the next step in the precipitous decline of the country brought about by the acceptance of post-menopausals as examples of leadership.

It’ll be a historic first!
Floridian here. Unlike Newsome’s California we have driveable roads, decent schools, First and Second Amendment rights, a minimal problem with homelessness, clean beaches, rare forest fires, plenty of water, uninterrupted electricity (except in the case of hurricanes), and no drag queens grooming our children. I’m staying.

So did California at one time. Prosperity attracts locusts.

Florida is the perfect example demonstrating that people don’t mind taxes (even high taxes) if they feel they’re getting something good in return. (Roads, schools, public order, etc)
(NH, VT, Maine also like this)
JDaveF: Let’s be fair and balanced here. You also have a ton of Cubans, Haitians, Puerto Ricans, and NY Juice.
Did I mention Florida is damned hot and has lots of hurricanes?
In all seriousness, best of luck but I’m moving to the mountains.

Dems will run Newsom/Whitmer Pres/VP. Money talks. The Silicon Valley and private equity crowd are losing money in the market and tired of all the mismanagement and BS. It takes hundreds of millions $ to run a campaign and Newsom is the only backable horse in the race now. The money people are pragmatists; they want to win (win legitimately; obviously, if they have to, they will put the fix in again), they want control and they want baseline competence.
The Hunter Biden “leaks” are obviously a “shot across the bow”. It’s the insiders’ way way of telling Dr Jill and team to back off and give up without a fight. There are hundreds of felonies on one disc drive….the old geezer could die in jail in a cell right next to Trump lol.

The funny part of Newsom is if you post his family photo without context most lefties would assume it’s an advertisement for a white ethnostate.

Chances are pretty high that Biden will die of natural causes before the end of his term. Maybe even before the end of the year. No need to push him down the stairs.

If Kamala was serious, she’d switch to Republican and pick Hershel Walker as her running mate.
The neocons would spend more money on her to keep Trump out than they’ve spent on Zelenskyyyy.
Grillercons would orgasm so hard they could barely walk.

There are a lot of things Kamala could do if she had anything on the ball, but if she were that type of person Team Biden wouldn’t have chosen her.
5
Pretty sure the only thing she ever had on the ball was her tongue.
8
Kamala’s proven to be possibly a bigger embarrassment than Biden, who at least has old age as an excuse.
Kamala’s speaking style with that creaky vocal fry, interspersed too frequently with nervous laughter, and repetition of certain phrases and her general inability to get her point across, disqualifies her for high office going forward.
It was a colossal mistake to appoint her, especially since the Dem primary elections, both in her vote total and watching her in the debates, revealed how unappealing she is.
7
Kamala can’t “make her point” because she has no point. Really. Listening to her is “amusingly” similar to listening to those comedian “double talkers” who were popular many years ago on the talk show circuit. They’d talk and talk and when you put their words together said nothing of meaning and never addressed the question/topic that started their whole discussion off—but they made it sound like they were on point, and you were deficient in some cognitive way.
Harris does this naturally seemingly without thought or effort. One is left thinking that “the lights are on but nobody’s home.” Here’s the scary part: As I’ve discussed before, I have a close relative in the later stage of early onset dementia. In the last year, she has been talking to herself, *exactly* like Harris in an interview! Talk without meaning. Only with us, we laugh and continue on with her as if we understood what she is saying, but there’s nobody home…

Alzaebo: Bravo! Your first line just made my day.
Prognostication Alert!
Yes, the RINO wave will arrive in November and be seated the following January. Stagflation, RONA 2.0, Hunter scandal #732, and the newly enacted Build Back Better Boondoggle (4Bs) will all converge to put everyone into a novel state of rage-whining and apoplexy. And the solution to all our problems will become . . . faux House hearings and RINOs peacocking in front of the TV cameras every minute of every day while vomiting bucks of indignation and scorn to appease the plebs. They might even throw in an impeachment or two to keep the ratings up and distract everyone from $10/gal gasoline. And the Caucasian birthrate will plunge even lower because Joe Normie will have ejaculated so hard on Nov 8th that not even Viagra can give him a stiffy again. Bongino and Carlson will be singing “Happy Days Are Here Again” and telling everyone that VOTE HARDER was a great success and the bane of election fraud is now kaput. Biden will die in his sleep and be covertly stuffed by a well paid taxidermist, but no one will notice, so he remains in office until 2024. Kamala will cackle her way to winning the nomination but then lose to Trump by a handful of fake votes. And Trump will then sell off the US to China for a nice profit and return to Mar a Lago. Just sayin’.

you owe me a new keyboard!
…spewed my beverage all over it!
but, you made my day. THAT was funny.
Biden was the first President whose daughter revealed that he took showers with her.
As a step up maybe the diaries of Newsom’s relatives will show that he likes to wear dresses for them in private.
I agree that Newsom can probably beat Trump in 2024. We are that dumb and that corrupt.

Perhaps the Democrats don’t care about diversity accept when appointing the cabinet and the judiciary. The judicial appointments and approvals since ’20 are truly astounding using diversity to be beyond reproach and provide cover for lethally toxic, ideological insanity. The residue of this will be around for decades. It means we can’t vote or litigate our way out of this now.
I caught a bit of Hawley interrogating a UC Berkeley professor in a Congressional hearing. The hostility and brazen disregard that feral chair warmer displayed was remarkable. You should watch it to get a glimpse of where this is headed. Of course Hawley made the rounds afterward on Hannity. He was gloating that these people are crazy and that is the modern Democrat thinking he won something. He looked like he was acting as mission accomplished. Yet, he and Hannity implicitly validated the idea that words are violence in so doing. More ground given while declaring victory.
These fools can’t seem to put on the pants. That that abomination is a college professor at an elite university and then brought into the US Congress as an expert witness to assert that men can have abortions while acting with hostile contempt toward two US Senators is a warning to us all. Take away the stinking money. Taxpayers pay for this rot. I guess that is too easy of a solution.
That person’s attitude and outlook is enshrined throughout the federal judiciary now. This is topical to elections. The Democrats may or may not give “diversity” a chance at the top of the ticket, but what they have done with appointments once they get elected is a frightening proposition. Blacks as a whole are extremely opposed to homosexuality and all of its deviations. But, their political militants are using tranny-ism to breach the Cathedral. Election by election, appointment by appointment, he Bolsheviks march on.
20
The UC Berkeley professor sounded like a Xirl Science character from the Zman Power Hour.
3
I think a victory would have looked like this:
“I see that you can’t understand that speech is not violence. I see that you state that a person who states the scientific fact that men cannot get pregnant is violence. How you passed the third grade with that misunderstanding of fundamental facts and concepts of reality is beyond me. That you are a professor at one of the world’s elite Universities is a tragedy of epoch proportions. It speaks to a level of degeneracy and decay that our civilization cannot and will not tolerate.
I thank you for your time and I thank you for coming here today as a display of the rot and decay at UC Berkeley’s faculty. I have no further questions. I propose and strongly urge my colleagues to schedule Congressional hearings to abolish the taxpayer funded rot, degeneracy and outright lunacy that our last witness brought to light today. Let us hold hearings and show the American taxpayer what they are paying for and bring this to a swift end by defunding it immediately. I will also serve the regents of UC Berkeley with a notice of the intellectual bankruptcy of some of their faculty and of the abysmal manner in which they comport themselves in front of the People’s United States Senate.”
Slam the gavel and have an aide start the process. Next!
That would be Hawley acting like a serious American man.

PeriheliusLux: The only rational response, had Hawley the balls, would have been to laugh in her face. Debating or attempting to argue rationally or shame the woke just makes one look like a weak, pathetic fool. Laugh now. Prepare to do something more kinetic . . . at a more opportune time.
3
He did laugh in her face. Perhaps that is the best approach. I am of the mind that harsh repudiation, especially in the Chambers of our most sanctified institutions is the proper order. I may well be wrong.
PeriheliusLux: No personal offense intended to you, but f**k “our most sanctified institutions.”
you silly guy, the Bolsheviks are gone. now it’s the WEF international finance folks who will own everything when this is over . and it will probably be over by the 2024 “election” .i. e. dominion voting machine theater. look at Netherlands., sri lanka, and Germany, and ask yourself how much longer this can go on

I was convinced the GOP would become the white party, but that’s not happening. It’s becoming the Dems of not so long ago. Duh! Meanwhile, educated whites are going Dem, I read. Yesterday’s bourgeois conservatives are today’s bourgeois radicals, or radical is the new conservative, who knows. It gives me a headache.
Here in PA, Dems seem to be banking on the suburban Karen and cuck vote. All Roe. Mastriano and Oz(!) are too extreme for PA.
Interesting times.

By 2024 there may be a reckoning with the vaccines.
Perhaps the strategy will be to allow Trump to get back into office. Then the dam of denial bursts and they unload all the blame on Mr. Warp Speed.
Schizophrenic conservatives are dumb enough to fall into that trap.
“The vaccine is evil and has killed millions, so let’s worship muh god emperor who signed off on the project”

NoOneAtAll You win the Internet today as far as I’m concerned. People love entertaining fantasies that the rotten bastards in charge will one day meet with their just comeuppance. Yet, not even the puppets of those in charge ever have to worry about such a fate. Remember the “Lock Her Up!” slogan that Trumpists use to chant with regard to Hillary Clinton? How’d that turn out?

you are correct . no there never has been .

It’s right to concentrate on which Democrat wins, because the Republicans are a finished party and a finished brand. The Democrats never want to relinquish power, but being in the minority in Congress will be a hefty consolation prize this year, as the economy implodes. It’s not coming back for years. Should the Republicans win, suddenly THEY will be the ones holding up PPP check, round 2, and Stimmy round 2, and as everyone gets their autos repossessed because they were thrown out of work, a giant arrow will be pointed by all the Dems and all the media at these uncaring Republicans who will be turned into Monopoly guy with monocle (who also denied your precious abortion in a country chok-full-o-sluts and hoes This will create a positive tailwind again for the Democrats.
The Republicans will be rightly frightened that the fiscal picture of the U.S. is crumbling along with the economy. But the time for fiscal restraint is long passed. It’s not politically practical, nor does it matter for a pyramiding Federal budget that’s already out of control just as the recession is beginning. The suicide of that part will be at hand, and good riddance.

Newsom is by far the most capable of all the pygmies running, but he has one big problem. California depends on capital gains and income taxes to a bigger extent than anyone realizes. It gyrates radically from flush budget at the height of stock and real estate bubbles to near ruin when those bubbles burst. And sure enough, when the budgets are flush, they lock in expensive nonsense like healthcare for illegals. It also has a very expensive pension plan for its blue haired state workers. When the economy goes into reverse, all that bubble money going into the state budget vaporizes. So instead of going into the Democrat primary crowing about how strong the CA economy is, it’ll be ground zero of the economic disaster about to unfold. Even Democrats will pause to look at the smoldering ruin that is CA.
14
A big problem for Newsom is that California was Lockdown Central during the plandemic. Florida under DeSantis was the most open state.
By 2024, the immense number of deaths and injuries from the Covid “vaccines” (not vaccines) will be a problem for politicians who supported the vaxx and the mandates.
6
It’s only an electoral problem for the left if normies know about it and normies only know about it if its reported and its only reported if its not an electoral problem for the left.
It won’t be a problem. Has it been a problem so far that the virus was intentionqlly engineered in a US funded lab?
Scandal of the century would be far too mild if this was allowed to be widely understood
We need to accept the awful reality what total narrative control means.
2
Wolf Barney: You’re forgetting who controls the megaphone. Mainstream media will simply ignore deaths and injuries from the “vaccines.” Alternative media will report on such matters, but the vast majority of those who read/watch alternative media will already be anti-vax to begin with. So alt media will mainly be preaching to the choir. Given the attention span of the average person, it’s entirely possible that most of the electorate will barely remember Covid by 2024.
4
sadly true. it is astounding how very very hard it is to even talk to normie outside of the media narratives. either MSNBC or FOX .

Plato didn’t think that you had to fix refrigerators to govern well. quite the opposite. I guess your point is that leaders should be in touch with the common man.

Leaders should be in touch with reality, anyway, if not with the common man. I think that was the point.
11
I don’t think you can rule out the GOP failing to take both the House and Senate and possibly on purpose. They know all the problems ailing us are the result of long term secular problems that cannot be fixed with happy talk and a tax break for billionaires. Plus, the GOP loves being the powerless opposition. They get to stick to their “principles” when it doesn’t matter. They can bitch about the budget deficit and the government being too large when they will be outvoted and the Democrat President will sign huge spending bills. It’s great for fundraising.

The GOP only has this opportunity because they’re not democrats (to normie voter). They will find a way to fuck it up. If any group knows how to fail it is the GOP.

About the only thing I know for sure is that it is going to suck. I do enjoy the gyrations however. “Oh no, we really, really do like you that’s why we want your vote, now put your head in this oven.”
That’s the part that always gets me, people know they are going to get screwed yet they still expect good things. For example, after the presumed shellacking the republicans give in the mid-terms I know we’re all just dying to get “immigration reform” at long last. Any bets that they won’t try? It’s going to be grrreat.

> Sometime in the winter he announces his retirement after his first term in office.
My money is they take him out with a C.I.A. asset decked out in full MAGA regalia. That way they get the sympathy card (their only real hope at this point) as well as another bloody shirt for the crusades against gun ownership and “white supremacy”.

Agree, Mr. Generic. Subtlety is their strong point. Nothing obvious or blatant for sure.

Over half the country reads below the 8th grade level.
Keeping narratives simple to sway mass opinion is wise.
7
there is no way the the average reading level is that high . nearly half the country is functionally illiterate .
probably 10 to 15% read at or above the 8th grade level.
3
Some are positing that the Biden will be removed via an assassination by a White Supremacist. That of course would necessitate the cancellation of the elections and gun confiscation.

I see some generic so and so got there first. The plan g=has to be for the Dems to deny anything is wrong until January when the OP, despite their best efforts will win.
Part two of the Dems plan is to accelerate and exacerbate all of the evils and blame the GOP. I’ve no doubt the NYT and WaPo are writing the editorials as we speak.
2
But would those evil raciss dare in the middle of a national crisis? Feminists are urging Biden to declare the lack of abortions a federal health emergency.
No, seriously. Triumphantly announced this a.m. on MSNBC.

This plan is genius, for them. Almost all of the country has been conditioned by the media to believe this.
Most Republicans will be gullible and enthusiastic to defend “our democracy.”

…As well as say that “this country is too divided” and “we mustn’t give voice to extremists” and that’s when Christian right-wingers get the 2 minutes hate because that’s all that’s really left.

Come now, let’s give our Republican friends a little bit of credit — they will be amusing us to death as well. It’s going to be hilarious, watching them rig their primaries to keep Orange Man from winning again. And since DR3, they pretty much have to go with someone brown. I bet “Nikki” “Haley” is warming up in the bullpen as we speak, since she’s a twofer, but I bet Marco Rubio has one more run in him. Make foam parties great again! Or they might go for the quadruple axel and run that heretofore unknown scion of the Bush family, Jebuardo Bush. Fun times ahoy!
9
Don’t count on it.
They’re going to make their voters vote for that steaming pile “Pierre Delecto”, aka “Mittens”, aka Romney, but with a POC & POV (Person of Vajay-jay).
He’s so RINO the dems can stomach him, and normiecon can “own the dems” by voting for the one who “should’ve” beat Obama.

One must be careful—lest “orange man” run as an independent and nail those duplicitous RINO’s to the wall. That’s how Clinton got in. Trump is in the drivers seat for 2024, like it or not.

Of course, whoever sits in the Anti-White House doesn’t really matter dicksquat. We’re in a post-electoral world now.

Well, it looks like they’ve reached the banks of the Rubicon. The Cloud People in the Government have pretty much decided he has to go, but how?
Well, they could use his and his son’s corruption to drive Pedo Peter out of office, but that is too messy and people will hate Democrats even more.
We can assume they’ll fill the envelopes full of cash and hand it to the Dominion People, but they still have Joe plus a population who will be even more angry over another crooked election. The Dirt people are already on the verge of getting too uppity anyhow.
Or they could pull off an act where Joe and a few others they don’t like are out of the picture, and the American people are so shocked that they can declare martial law and get away with it. That way they can cancel the elections, go after their White Supremacist Bogeymen, and soothe the normies will a narrative like ” we’re doing this for your good.” And the saps will believe it. And the Republicans will all line up and shout “Yeah!”
Now you all can try to figure out what they could do. You fill in the blanks. I would call it The Mother of All False Flags, but I don’t think I’m supposed to mention stuff like that around here. After all, there’s no Deep State. Right?
Anyhow, think on this premise. What would they have done In the time of Imperial Rome?
