“Sharp-as-a-Tack” Biden is still wandering the halls of the White House, but it is clear to everyone that he is not in charge. At the same, the US is in an escalating proxy war in with a nuclear superpower and is getting sucked into spiraling tribal warfare in the Middle East.
Who is really running the government?
Is the US government run by competing power centers that create a dangerously incoherent military and foreign policy?
Could one element within the government instigate a dangerous escalation in the ongoing wars while another is attempting to negotiate a settlement?
If this scenario sounds far-fetched, just consider this headline about warring factions in Syria that were supported by different parts of the US government, and that was when there was still a president with functioning mental facilities:
People forgot all about that empty chair once the shiny new weekly thing came out. I’ll bet most even think they’re “objective” and “fair-minded” when it comes to the propaganda they’re idiotically calling “news”.
I would not be surprised if Biden is forced to resign after the Democrat’s Convention. Harris is much more capable of reading whatever comes up in the teleprompter.
In the past, presidents have made decisions that went against the consensus. During the Cuban Missile Crisis, practically everyone in the Pentagon and the cabinet was saying that the US had to invade Cuba, but Kennedy overrode that consensus and negotiated a settlement with Khrushchev. Only decades later did the Russians reveal that there were tactical nukes in Cuba and Soviet commanders had authority to use them to stop a US invasion.
The last thing that the people who run Washington want is a strong president who would act like Kennedy did in 1963. That explains why Harris is the nominee and why there is a total freak out about Trump and Vance.
Harris doesn’t have the intellect or the character to make for a competent president. That being said, I honestly think this country would be in a better position if she were to replace Biden now. She may not be competent but she is atleast conscious enough to somewhat act as a check against the military leadership if something were to happen.
Harris should be (INO) the de facto president. For a couple of reasons:
As you’ve stated, she would be showcased as the incompetent noob she is.
She would have the power of the pen to issue EOs to advance her REAL agenda. America needs to see that.
The whole ■■■■ show would finally be realized to be more of Obama’s third term as Harris’ campaign would be just more of the same, run by Obama now just as Biden’s entire presidency to date.
He’s not going to, and they’re not forcing him to resign. That would be admitting something is wrong with him, or that he is incapable. They never admitted that. He just said he’s not running for reelection to allow younger blood to take over. Not because he can’t find his way off a stage, or because he shakes hands with open air.
Predictions are difficult especially those about the future. Democrats were already forced to admit that Biden was incapable of running for president. If he can’t run a campaign, logically he can’t run the executive branch.
The reality is that Biden is just a figurehead with a position similar to that of the king in the United Kingdom. Theoretically the king, on his own authority as commander-in-chief, could order a pre-emptive military strike on another country. The reality is that he simply signs off on whatever his ministers tell him to do.
My guess is that the coup to install Harris as president is still ongoing. I expect more incriminating evidence about the Biden family to emerge if Joe attempts to cling to power.
I suspect the government is still firmly under the same leadership it has been since 2021. I just don’t know who that leadership is.
They can expect to continue under Harris. If she is not allowed to talk out of turn on her own for fear she will mess up, she is exactly who they want in the White House.
I suspect the government has been under the domination of same entities since November 1963, and the same organizations have been fighting tooth-and-nail against Trump for the last eight years.
Biden is just a puppet, and his puppet masters are looking for Harris to replace him.
Forcing Biden to resign so Harris can run as the incumbent president is the next logical step.
My guess is that a few more stories in the mainstream media about the dealings of the Biden family and threats of prosecutions may be enough to force Biden to resign. Another possibility would be to leak video of Biden before his morning meds.
If all else fails, the people who really run things can show Biden the still-secret JFK files . . .
Joe is too senile to campaign…he’s too senile to stand trial for mishandling classified information…he apparently turned his first cabinet meeting in a year over to his damn wife last week? Who voted for her again?
That mess in Israel that was made possible by him enriching the Iranians is getting worse every day…
Maybe he’s planning another trip to the beach.
In our system the vice president should be playing a significant role in running our government…but she’s too busy telling us all she grew up a middle class kid and distancing herself from the policies of the Biden Harris administration to care.
Joe’s too senile to run, too senile to be held accountable, too senile to run his own meetings or to know which world leader to introduce next, but he’s still the commander in chief???
