The question of whether Joe Biden could hold out against political pressure from the media, donors, Obama and influential figures across the party has been answered.
He couldn’t.
The donor coup succeeded. Democracy is dead, long live democracy.
His campaign people had kept insisting that he was running until the last minute when his account tweeted a statement that he was abandoning his campaign. The whole seemed reminiscent of the palace coup against Japan’s Emperor Hirohito after the bomb dropped. Clearly there were multiple factions at work, but the power players, led by the party’s donors, won out and Biden, sick and isolated, weakly crumbled.
His Twitter account, rather than in any personal appearance, announced the news and endorsed Kamala, thus cutting off any plans for a ‘blitz’ primary.
Lots of other questions however remain to be answered.
Biden’s letter states that he’ll give some sort of speech later this week. Expect some brief, rambling, confused, and semi-bitter remarks.
Republicans will raise two points.
- The legal question of who can and can’t appear on the ballots. Some Republicans in more liberal states will likely be more ‘gentlemanly’ about it which Democrats would never do in their place if Trump had to drop out and Vance were to step in.
- If Biden is unfit to campaign, why is he still fit to be president?
And that is the question that urgently needs to be answered.
Over the past few weeks, Dems and their media have laid out an argument (previously made by Republicans) that Biden is unfit on account of his mental state to be president.
So why is he still fit to remain in office?
DrLarry says
Biden had early dementia when he ran for President last time. The Democrats and the media hid it by using the “basement strategy” and keeping him out of the public eye. Anybody with regular contact with Biden for years knew that he had dementia, but they all conspired to keep it secret until the debate made it plain for all to see. Now they are acting shocked despite that just mere weeks ago they all were insisting that he was mentally competent.
Thomas E. Warwick says
Is the Biden campaign going to give Kamalalala all those millions he’s collected? Or is he going to give it to Hector Hunter to invest in Cocaine?
Jerry says
He isn’t fit to remain in office, But it gets better,,,

Kelleigh Nelson says
And we all saw it…we knew it, and now the whole Dem Party and mainstream media seem so shocked at Biden’s debate performance. Good grief, they’ve known it all the time. Their shock is just more theatre for the masses. As for the “democracy,” we don’t pledge allegiance to a democracy for which we stand. We pledge allegiance to the REPUBLIC for which we stand. Our Pravda media has used Goebbels’ tactics for repetition of the lie until it is believed. We were founded as a REPRESENTATIVE REPUBLIC, not a Democracy, which our founders absolutely detested.
As always, Daniel Greenfield is superb!
Peter F. says
Are you eager for “President Harris?”
Jeff Bargholz says
Better than Alzheimer Joe’s handlers. I’ve stated it before and I’ll state it again: Nobody could be worse than Joke Bidumb’s handlers. They’re the worst people who’ve ever lived.
Greg says
The real question is will they continue to be her handlers? The woman is not smart and is apparently h*ll to work for according to the numerous staffers who have quit.
It is a legitimate question to ask if she would actually be in charge. The next six months are going be the most dangerous in many decades. If people aren’t frightened, they are absolutely unaware and dreaming.
Jeff Bargholz says
Kameltoe is a bitch but she’s also a control freak. She’ll fire all the Beijing Biden apparatchiks first chance she would get.
She can’t win the election without the usual Dirtbagocrat vote cheating, though,
Montie Craddock says
Is there a better time for our enemies to step up their pace to Make America a Loser State ? Will China attack Taiwan ? Will Isreal bomb a threatening and a more aggresive Iran ? Will Russia now try and take over Ukraine ? More threatening North Korean toward South Korea ?

Thanks Jeff! There was a good diagnosis of Joe’s Dementia that I was going to post. Oh well 🙂

Jeff Bargholz says
Interesting links. Thank you.
I couldn’t read the German stuff (both my surnames are German, Bargholz and my birth name of Rininger but I’m not literate in the language.) The “Israel National News” story was quite good.
Subcortical arteriosclerotic encephalopathy (SAE) Or Alzheimer’s? Only an expert clinician could make a diagnosis with an examination, I suppose.
Have you noticed he hasn’t been seen in days? I think he’s dead or completely incapacitated. It was only a matter of time. He isn’t like us. He’s a shambling vegetable. Or was. I think he’s dead or flat out on his back, like I’ve always predicted.
Fuck that scummy piece of shit. I hope he FEELS it. He made us feel his evil for what, fifty years?
RAM says
The Democratic primaries themselves were rigged to be non-events.. And their whole lying premise was that Biden was serving appropriately and could continue.
Ralph P says
I’m very surprised. I thought Biden would hang on. I guess the pressure from the money handlers was too much. And who will be Kamala’s VP pick? Should be an interesting DNC>
Jeff Bargholz says
I’m surprised if fake “Dr” Jill is on with this. What a pompous bitch. She LOVES being the fake first lady.
Raymond in DC says
Thanks to Not-a-real-doctor Jill, Trump was almost killed last week, as the Secret Service A team was reportedly dispatched to defend Jill Biden’s brief appearance in Pittsburgh. Meanwhile, Trump was left in the hands of the B team, including many assigned from other DHS entities.
Jeff Bargholz says
Yeah, I think Corpse Joe is really dead now. Where has he been for the last three or four days? It’s not like this UTTERLY corrupt administration would ever tell the public the truth about ANYTHING.
Raggedy Anne, Karine Jean-Pierre, is going to have to get a real job.
Old Fogey says
Biden or Harris in the Oval, we are in great peril until next January 20. And if we can’t stop the upcoming steal, our republic is doomed.
Jeff Bargholz says
Bitch Biden is dead or flat out on a hospital bed. GUARANTEED.
Sueignat says
Who is ? Expect maybe the Second-Husband.
geek49203 says
In 2020, the DNC had a choice to let Bernie win, or make sure Joe won — they had no one better. IN 2024, the Dems still have no one better. Obama/Clinton and the ACA wiped out a generation of would-be POTUS candidates, and it will be another cycle before younger folks are better.
Whomever runs, they will run against “Incumbent” Trump from a standing start. Will take at least 2x the money to beat Trump as Joe, money which will come from downticket. Which means Dems have just written off hopes of keeping Senate (they’d have to run the table to keep it anyway) or flipping the House. The Dems just don’t want 2 more Trump SCOTUS pics and Trump exacting revenge.
BLSinSC says
I see a HUGE LOAN REPAYMENT deposited in the Biden’s HUNDREDS of accounts soon!!
I’m sure he’s not going to let that $250 MILLION go without his USUAL 10%!!
Raymond in DC says
“So why is he still fit to remain in office?”
Well, he’s not. But there are complications yet to be worked out: the Biden family pardons, Joe’s “golden parachute”, who’d keep their jobs under a Harris administration. (She reportedly has a tough time holding on to staffers.) And no less significant is the issue of finding a VP candidate for the next six months who can be confirmed by both the barely Democrat Senate and the barely Republican House.
Jeff Bargholz says
Yeah, complications like Cadaver Joe is dead or flat out catatonic on a hospital bed.

Get it in your heads. He’s gone, not that he was ever there.
Killer Marmot says
“If Biden is unfit to campaign, why is he still fit to be president?”
Biden’s supporters will likely argue that his deterioration is not so far gone that he can’t goven until January 2025, but that he’s not up for another term
I’m skeptical. It wouldn’t surprize me if he resigned the presidency before January. But that’s the argument.
TruthLaser says
It is possible that Kamala would be run as the incumbent.
LC says
The cackling nincompoop…
Next-how she got her political career started
Jeff Bargholz says
You do all know Corpse Biden is dead, right? Our scumbag government is trying to hide that. Just like they tried to hide his OBVIOUS senility.
Oh, it’s magical. COVID is why he can’t come out. Not because he’s dead.
Chris Shugart says
Yikes, wait until he finds out!
Algorithmic Analyst says
Yeah, what if he forgets.
Jeff Bargholz says
Yes, there’s a pretty good chance of that. Considering he was senile as fuck and now he’s dead.
WhiteHunter says
My biggest worry now is what further damage and hardships Biden and his thugs may inflict on us between now and next January 20–by rushing-through some more lifetime appointments, like Federal judges, that we’ll be stuck with, planted as political “roadside IEDs,” to blow up in our faces again and again over the next 30 years.
He must NOT be allowed to make ANY more appointments. Not even one.
Justices Thomas and Alito, are you listening? Take extra care of your health; use food testers before you take a bite of ANYTHING on your plates, and be damned sure that your bodyguards are totally loyal, alert, and competent — unlike the S.S. Agents who were “protecting” DJT in Butler, Pa., a week ago. Don’t take ANY risks!
Jeff Bargholz says
As if his handlers and stooges could do that. They shot their tiny wad in the Republican convention.
Steve Kardas says
Who has had control of the Nuclear Launch codes all this time and under what authority ?
TruthLaser says
Hopefully, it is someone not mixing up the names of countries.
Disadvantaged says
Will it really make a different who is President for four years? Will America be better off in 2028? Will the U.S. government solve the numerous problems facing the country? I don’t think so.
Alan J Lefebvre says
The open casket presidency will continue till January 20.
Floyd Looney says
We are all so shocked.
BTW, he also seems to have cleared his entire schedule. Did he decide to stop pretending he was President?
TruthLaser says
Kamala as candidate for president instead of Biden makes me see Laurel asking Hardy to let him be the front of the donkey next time. Removing Biden and nominating Harris for president is like changing just one gym sock.
SPURWING PLOVER says
His dropping out is going to devastate Soros and the UN,WEF and the rest of the Globalists and the Eco-Freaks and hardliner left who are already beating their brains out over the Failed Assassination Attempt
