It seems a little late in the day, but Democrats are having second thoughts about renominating President Biden as their standard bearer. Politico reports “House Dems plot last-ditch effort to delay Biden nomination.” It’s serious: Nancy Pelosi is on the case.
This morning Politico also reports that “New polling bolsters ‘Dump Biden’ push.” As the man said in Blazing Saddles, “We’ve gotta protect our phony baloney jobs, gentlemen. We must do something about this immediately.”
At the same time the part of the Democratic establishment that is subservient to Biden has a plan. Cut the varmints off at the pass! Renominate Biden now, weeks before the Democratic convention is scheduled to touch down in Chicago. Axios reports that Biden himself is “leap[ing] left to survive.”
The cowering Democrats had the past year to address Biden’s patent senility. They tormented and stigmatized my cousin Dean Phillips when he tactfully raised Biden’s incapacity in his challenge to Biden’s renomination. Biden and the Democrats deserve each other.
At the same time, Biden’s incapacity raises serious issues of national security. Everyone can see he’s more than a few fries short of a Happy Meal. All those who have covered for Biden to date — including those plotting to oust him now — should take a long look in the mirror. Warning: It may induce nausea.
Biden refuses to submit himself to any cognitive test that would see the light of day. Even he knows he’s not all there. The chances that he will serve out a second term run from zero to zero. Biden administration officials are complicit in a cover-up that demonstrates incredibly low character at the same time that their policies have produced the adverse consequences we see all around us.
Biden cites his supposed record of success as the ground of his hold on the nomination and his campaign for reelection. Look at the past three years! Even if the past three years were a tribute to his genius — which they may be if his genius is for destruction — they are not an argument that bears on his future capacity.
We’ve looked at the past three years. Over the past three years Biden has gone from 78 to a very old 81. Everyone has seen it. We can’t unsee it. That’s their problem. In any event, past results are indicative of future performance, which suggests that Biden should get out now.
It’s up to Biden. They are in his hands and he is a stubborn kind of fellow.
The coming election gives voters the opportunity to choose between two candidates with records and results. As President Johnson put it in the 1964 campaign, “we should follow, the course of the prophet Isaiah, ‘Come now, let us reason together.’”
