Joe Biden gave his first press conference in over eight months. There is a reason for that. Joe Biden is just not particularly good at this. Last night was probably a worst-case scenario for Democrats. Those in the Democratic Party who are desperate for him to withdraw from the race would have preferred a public face-plant. That didn’t happen, although Joe Biden had some predictable Joe Biden moments. For example, calling Donald Trump his Vice President was certainly entertaining. But although he still looked old, still slurred his words, and still gave incoherent answers based on lies, that wasn’t enough to convince him or anyone close to him of the need to resign. If anything, Joe looked even more determined to stay the course.
The result is that the DNC is caught in a quagmire of their own creation. They can’t get rid of Joe, any time soon, and every hour this is delayed is a precious hour lost forever. They can’t seriously promote their candidate for President until they have a candidate for President. Right now, few predict that will be Joe Biden and even fewer predict that he would have any chance during the November election.
The following article in the Intelligencer is from a hard-core Democrat infused with Trump Derangement Syndrome. This man not only does not want Trump to win, but he has also drunk the Kool Aid regarding January 6th, 2021, referring to Trump as a “disgraced coup plotter.” That just makes this even more delicious.
The Democrats Are Making a Terrible Mistake (msn.com)
According to this article democrats are saying, in private conversations, that “they can live with Donald Trump winning.” Perhaps Chait unwittingly, exposed the real problem:
“The party’s organizing basis since the first day Trump took office has been to treat him as a civic emergency. This is the basis for demanding donations, volunteering, and sacrifice. If they are not willing to endure the relatively modest discomfort of a contentious intraparty debate to minimize the chance of a second Trump term, they’ll have broken faith with their supporters.
In the meantime, the result of this paralysis is a crippled Biden dragging a mostly unwilling party to what it regards as certain defeat. Three and a half years ago, one could have imagined Trumpian authoritarianism returning to power in a blaze of violence. Instead, history may record that he took power again when his opposition essentially abdicated.”
The most dangerous lie is the one we tell ourselves. Democrats were too focused on telling lies about Donald Trump that they ignored lies they were telling about and to themselves. They ignored the obvious about Joe Biden and let him cake walk through the primaries with no opposition. Now, only when it is too late, have they finally allowed themselves to see reality. Joe Biden wasn’t destroyed by that debate performance; he was exposed. Even Democrats and the Biden supporters in the MSM admit they weren’t surprised. They were just shocked that this happened on national TV and they accidentally exposed the truth to the entire world. Once seen, it can’t be unseen. Now they live in Tomorrow land, stranded without power, in a land of illusion, with none of the rides working.
