Once again, the Democrat presidential nominee will be selected, not elected. But it won’t be Joe Biden.
Joe Biden is running for reelection. No matter that 3/4 of Americans wish he wouldn’t. No matter that his approval ratings, never good, are at an all-time low. That his undeniable cognitive & physical abilities continue to worsen, or that he’d be 86 at the end of a second term. Or his son is almost definitely headed to prison, while his family’s shady influence-peddling schemes have been exposed. The ground-shaking discovery of evidence that Biden himself took a $10 million bribe leaves Team Joe unfazed.
Whatever palace coup was underfoot during the classified docs brouhaha, it was obviously thwarted. As an empty-headed marionette, Biden has value to whoever is pulling his strings. It’s his failing body that’s the problem. Frankly, the odds that Joe Biden is still alive in 2028 are slim to none. So Kamala takes over at some point.
That cannot be part of the plan. Kamala’s been crated so far, but as POTUS she’d be unleashed and unpredictable. Nor are presidential aspirants patient enough to sit through six or ten years of a Harris administration.
Piecing together clues, we can suss the Democrat’s real plan.
Not Up For (a) Debate
The Democrat Party has been rigging its nominations since at least 2008. Now the DNC has put the kibosh on debates. No repeat of the 2019 clown car, which saw the establishment picks stumble, while rogue Tulsi Gabbard stole the limelight and reminded voters that the Democrat Party bore scant resemblance to the party of old. Before they were fixed, the 2020 primaries nearly elevated Bernie, who actually wanted to implement all those socialist plans the Democrats only ever give lip service.
So this year, no dangerous flirtations with democracy by the Democrats. The delightfully batty new-age loon, Marianne Williamson, poses no threat. But RFK Jr. does. Both his pedigree and platform offer stark contrasts between traditional Democrat values & ideals, and the Party’s current authoritarian, war-mongering, globalist, culturally radical agenda. He must not be given a voice.
Then there’s the fact that no amount of Adderall or coaching in his earpiece can get Joe through 90 minutes of hard-hitting Q&A. Without debates or need to campaign, Biden racks up enough delegates to secure the nomination.
Pump Trump
Believe it or not, Alvin Bragg’s bullshit indictment of Trump was intended to help Trump. And it worked — Trump’s polling numbers shot up among Republicans, and have stayed elevated ever since.
Trump is the best match-up for any Democrat. At 76, he can hardly point to Biden’s age as a disqualifier. Joe may be frail and wan, but the Donald is bloated and pasty. Divisive, caustic, a raging narcissist, Trump repulses far more voters than he inspires. Twice, he’s failed to top 47% of the vote, and nothing he’s said or done since gives any indication he could improve on that.
Most importantly, Trump has been wired for demolition. More serious indictments are coming, and are timed to go to trial after the GOP nominee has been chosen. Trump’s campaign would be consumed by this. The Dems learned well from Hillary’s emails.
DeSantis Is In The Details
Biden vs. Trump is winnable for the Democrats; Biden vs. DeSantis is not. DeSantis is young. He’s a traditional family man who doesn’t pay hush money to porn stars. He’s able to put critics in their place without being an asshole. DeSantis turned a slim victory in 2018 into a landslide in 2022, winning over many disaffected Democrats.
So the Dems and their flying monkeys in legacy media have waged a psyop against DeSantis — first trying to discourage him from announcing, now calling his run quixotic. Portraying him as the Devil incarnate plays to the Democrat base, but they know it won’t stick in the general election. DeSantis scares the crap out of the Democrats.
Thus the strategy of boosting Trump, then swapping out Biden for someone who matches up better against Trump. Someone younger and more charismatic. We have indications of who that someone might be.
Waiting In The Wings
For months now, Gavin Newsom has been running a pretend presidential campaign. He’s traveled the South to insult Southerners, erected billboards across the country promising expense-paid abortion junkets, ran anti-Florida ads in Florida. Gavin’s pretend opponent is Ron DeSantis, against whom he’s focused his attacks, culminating in his recent, empty threat to arrest DeSantis on kidnapping charges. As he did back in 2009, when he parlayed an upstart challenge to Jerry Brown into the Lt. Governor’s spot, Newsom is clearly jockeying for something.
All of a sudden, Michelle Obama is in the spotlight again. On TV scolding America for its obsession with guns. On TV scolding America for its over-dependence on technology. Hobnobbing with bootlicker Steven Colbert to accentuate her likability. Did I mention she has a new book out? Considering the flurry of fact checks insisting Michelle is TOTALLY NOT a candidate, it’s pretty much certain she is.
The Plan Unfolds
The picture becomes clear. Two Democrat power blocs vie with each other behind the scenes. The Obamas, currently running the White House, the dominant force ever since shattering the Clintonistas. The Californians, their strength deriving not just from sheer numbers, but also money. As a one-party state with few close contests, California Democrats big & small serve as the Party’s milk cow, funneling donations into competitive races across the country. (Not a day goes by when I don’t receive half a dozen email appeals from Democrat candidates in far-flung states.)
A gentleman’s agreement is in effect. From now on through the primaries, Biden will be the placeholder. Shortly before the convention, Joe will be shoved out of the way — perhaps quite literally, with another serious fall forcing him to withdraw. (It’ll need to be a physical issue, as the Dems could never admit they’ve been foisting a man with pudding for brains on the country all this time.) A fight on the convention floor will ensue between Gavin and Michelle. Both will be on the ticket, with only the order of their names in question. And may the dirtiest pol win!
Hang On, Sleepy!
The plan is devious, machiavellian, and par for the power-mad Democrat elite. It has a few holes, however.
The biggest is its reliance on Joe Biden’s mortal husk lasting another year, when the codger could go any day now. With the placeholder gone, the primary floodgates open. President Harris will certainly run. Gavin will announce faster than he finished on his wedding night. Amy Klobuchar’s in, Bernie might even give it one more go. In this cluster scenario, Michelle must now actually campaign if she wants the prize. Suddenly, RFK Jr.’s polling in the 30s places him in front.
Spoiler Alert
Does Kennedy feel any loyalty to a party he considers a betrayal of its heritage? Were they to fix it so he can’t win (like they did twice to Bernie,) what’s to stop him from running as an independent with, say, Gabbard as his running mate?
The centrist Third Way may field a candidate. Andrew Yang might appear on a few states’ ballots at the head of his Forward Party. A potential spoiler already exists in Cornel West. Whether West garners 10, 5 or, just 2% of the vote, all of it will be poached from the Democrats’ progressive or black base. What once looked like a lay-up is getting dicey.
Pray There Is No Plan B
A lot could go wrong between now and next Summer. FD-1023 Gate is like a manure pile fire — it may not seem like much at first, but there’s really no putting it out, and it can only get worse. No wonder the Democrats seem extra tense and on edge. We can only pray that they have no Plan B. For desperate people take desperate risks, and power-mad people do mad things. Another pandemic, a war with Russia — you name it, these Democrats would use it.
