Biden’s questionable competence demonstrates Democrats’ unquestioned faith in the Swamp. Biden’s recent mega-gaffe was just further evidence that his supporters do not expect Biden to govern the government; they expect the government to govern him. Therefore, their nominee not being up to the presidency is not a negative, but a positive, to Democrats — it guarantees he will not get in the way.
On a recent Friday, as we know, Joe did it again, launching this immortal doozy on The Breakfast Club radio show: “I tell you if you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black.”
They are truly supporters in a most literal sense: propping Biden up long enough to get to November, and then letting the swamp take it from there.
Imagine if Trump had said this — for whatever reason, about any group you care to name. All establishment media’s hell would have erupted, and you would have heard nothing else. Nothing. Of course, we all knew this would not be the case for Biden, regardless of what he said to whom. Certainly, Biden understood that, too, which is why his statement was arrogant.
It was also patronizing, taking blacks so for granted that he basically dared them to not vote for him. Of course, it was patently racist to its core, avowedly attributing politics to pigmentation. And it was also elitist; Biden knew he would not be held to account, because he is one of the liberal elect. Most of all, it was stupid; that Biden would risk his most important constituency for no plausible reward was simply dumb.
But Biden’s remarks were also enlightening — not about Biden, for whom by now we know no inanity is beyond, but about his supporters. There can be no doubt that they see him as the rest of America does: thoroughly overmatched, not just by the office he seeks, but even by the low-key campaign with which he pursues it. It is not a flattering political picture.
If Biden supporters look at him at all, it is as a placeholder, a prop. They are looking through Biden altogether and ahead to beating Trump. Their horizon extends only as far as November.
For the rest of America, so shortsighted a view raises the question: What happens then? If Biden cannot campaign, how is he to govern?
For Biden supporters, his ability — or rather obvious inability — to govern is the least of their concerns. The reason is that they are not expecting Biden to govern. Truth be told, they do not even want him to. Full Story @ American Spectator
Joe Biden Ukraine Scandal Exploding
Justice for Quid Pro Joe?
Half a year after the failed attempt to impeach President Trump over his “pressure” on Ukraine, a topic of the relationship between the U.S. and Ukraine will be yet again getting close attention and presumably making it hot and sweaty in the Delaware basement.
A reason for that is a political scandal that burst out in Kiev on May 19, when a member of Ukrainian Parliament Andrey Derkach called a press conference where he released audio records of the phone calls between “individuals whose voices sound like” those of ex-President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko and Vice President Joseph Biden, as well as Secretary of State John Kerry who discussed the course of Ukrainian domestic policy in very precise detail. On that tapes, Joe Biden factually tells Poroshenko what to do, and Poroshenko seeking advice, cooperates his actions and frankly reassures Biden that all his orders will be executed. Mr. Derkach said that the contents of those records are sufficient to incriminate Poroshenko a treason. As for our side of the pond, the tables are rapidly turning against Biden, who, so far, “magically” shrugged off all corruption accusations. Read More
Trump, Biden, and the Coronavirus Coup
Consider the last several weeks a test run for the Biden regency, a preview of what America might look like if, and when, rule by the “managers” becomes a permanent, irreversible fact, and democracy is part of the past.
Independent of Trump’s actual performance, the elite would like to hang the virus on Trump, and Trump alone, to bolster their aspirations of installing a maundering mummy in a Delaware basement named Joe in the Oval Office. A national crisis has been impeachment-fied.
That is the short-term plan, at least. The long-term one is more distressing.
That plan appears to be to convince Americans of the necessity of giving up what is left of their freedom and their dignity, and finally accept their status as serfs in a new America, where they are citizens in theory, but subjects—dare I say, test subjects—in practice. Read More

Trump who led us through the tragedy, and he is leading us forward, once again, to a new prosperity. What will be Joe Biden’s argument to lead America, after having sat out the worst crisis since World War II in his basement? Read More
Has Trump Already Won Reelection?
Poll numbers suggest Joe Biden is a weak opponent.
Ever since President Trump was elected, conservatives have nervously watched the poll numbers to see whether constant attacks from Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself) were damaging the president’s popularity among his core constituency. Of course, Trump has sometimes suffered from self-inflicted damage — at times, he is his own worst enemy — but never in recent history has any president faced such unrelenting opposition from the moment of his election.
Trump has his flaws and weaknesses as a candidate, but these are already well-known to the electorate, whereas Biden’s flaws and weaknesses have not yet been targeted in a sustained campaign. Read More
