"That's Ridiculous": Jill Biden - Not Joe, Appears On Live TV To Defend VP's Cognitive Ability
2020-08-20
[Zero] Remember when the New York Times published an anonymous Op-Ed claiming that White House cabinet members were 'whispering' about removing President Trump by invoking the 25th amendment to claim that he's mentally unfit to hold office? Trump immediately hit back, slamming the 'failing' Times and their 'gutless' anonymous source.

#11  Going to have to let this simmer for a bit.

Short order, not that politics isn't contentious, it is no longer a tickling competition as levers being pulled cannot be put back in this attempt to Shoot the Moon.

#8  I think he said Jo - ill. Its all so very cringy.

Tonight is the night Biden gives his endorsement of Trump, correct?



*I'd play it like, get as much absolute bullshit done before Biden loses it or we come up towards then end of the second year, then retire him.

All that bullshit done, yeah sure question uncle Joey all you like, he can't even get his teeth in correct anymore by himself.

Kamela gets promoted to president with the potential of 10 years as head master.

As far as palace intrigues I'd be surprised. Both of these women, if and when they end up playing head bitch, for lack of a better term, are where they are because they are absolute Machine Role Players. They know that if they just stay in their respective corners, Jill will be lavished upon until they wheel ol Joe down the ramp in a procession which will make the McCain funeral seem like a Natty Light trash college party, and Kamela will get the laurels of all those golden apples the leftists have been grabbing at for decades, starting with first woman president.

That's when the palace intrigues will begin, say Palosi is still speaker, that is two West Coast Machine Cogs in very powerful positions. If and when the other Cogs, New England and Great Lakes for example, start getting trust and jealousy issues things might get chippy.

Lets say at first everyone gets along because the buffet is fat. As the prime and then chuck bits get gobbled up, Southern Cogs may not be as welcoming as all the New England agents who have moved to Georgia and Florida, or West Coast to Texas Region. Picture that, the Harris/Palosi administration conducting federal action in Houston and Austin, Texas in general, to establish West Coast Agents (displacing the local Texas Region Agents) in positions of power locally - DA, College, Sheriff, Mayor, etc.

But Kansas, you warbling tit, you are pulling string corn out your arse.

California has had a people and business leaving problem for a few years now. To them, the people are replaceable and may even be a feature. The businesses however are the problem. Ex-pats have a tendency to clump into neighborhoods, Little Italy, Little China, you know the drill. Austin area becomes Little California. Locally with permits, zoning, health official decrees, special taxes, whatever they can make CA businesses moving there go through an arduous process.

Sound odd, consider similarities between a drug cartel and a political cartel, and the old saying, "If you aren't growing, you're shrinking." Chances of the other Cogs sitting there and watching the CA Cog become as powerful as all the others combined?

#7  #1, I think the titanic struggle will involve a lot more people that just Jill and Kamala. Each one of them thinks that they will really run things if Joe's elected...but I think an awful lot of other people also think they'll run things if he's elected.

#6  I just don't get it. Do the Dems have a plan? Or are they just thrashing?

It's the first presidential campaign to not actively campaign. Why they're doing it? Who knows, but we'll find out down the road.

#5  Not just thrashing, a calculated plan to get power. IMO that is the plan. Joe will bow out based on "health reasons" and Kamala will step up...if they win.

#3  The thought of this little bird KH (Opportunistic Mattress Thrasher) being our president gives me a great deal of cognitive distress.
