The Democrats have painted themselves into a corner and don’t see a realistic way out. Dementia Joe and Shallow Kamala present a dilemma. Joe is cycling in and out of touch with reality, see excruciating video of him with visiting French President Macron.
The process is sad enough when only people who care about you see it and are embarrassed for you, and maybe for themselves. It’s the brain fog symptoms of old age done on a national stage with TV cameras rolling.
If Joe had a Veep anybody thought was an improvement, it would be Amendment 25 in a heartbeat. But Harris has demonstrated that she isn’t up to the job and, more to the point, probably couldn’t win the 2024 election if she inherited the office. So Democrats carry on with the Weekend at Bernie’s charade while we all cringe and hope nothing demanding actual presidential leadership occurs.
Biden says he intends to run in 2024. Gov. Gavin Newsom of CA says he won’t challenge Biden for the 2024 nomination, which means he recognizes political reality. Both decisions can always be revisited if, for whatever reason, Biden doesn’t seek a second term.
