The CIA speaks.

I have a feeling, nothing concrete, that Joe doesn’t want “to go.”

I think they might "go all JFK" on Joe (and blame it on Trump supporters) if Joe insists on running.

ah yes, reminds some of us older folks here, President Johnson lamented that “if he had lost Walter Cronkite, he had lost middle America”, to paraphrase the thought LBJ had.

It does seem we are hearing more and more talk, that Joe should step aside. There is talk, even on liberal cable TV news yakfest programs, that Joe is getting old, has liabilities, etc.

The CIA has spoken. Biden will not run or he will be made unable to run.

Your perceptions are correct, I'm sure the data would reflect the increasing suggestions that Biden step aside. It will increase.

I sure don’t want to think about an assassination.

But, consider the timing. JFK was shot in Nov. 1963, just months before the presidential primaries began. No other Democrats were able to challenge President Johnson, who was the Democrat nominee in 1964 and was elected president.

If the same situation played out here, then President Kamala would be the incumbent president, with other Democrats on the sidelines, due to the shock and awe of a president having been assassinated.

If the powers that be really don’t want Kamala, then they have to have Joe out of the picture some other way.

Maybe timed for Shelly’s disinterest in any more campaigning than necessary?

It’s a harsh reality. Should you hang onto Joe Biden (our pony-soldier guy) or go for Harris?

I dont really care. 30-35% of the whiny gimme-dat commie-crat population should not be dictating what 60% or more have to put up with through vote cheating or breaking the system. I want to see this 'hope and change' revolution die a well deserved death. Get back to work if you want to eat.

“It’s painful to say that, given my admiration for much of what they have accomplished.”

Spin some climate change in there and try to cover the BS emanating from the bowels of that news organ...

My prediction made long ago still stands. This is what I think. 1. Biden has a “Health Emergency” (before the impeachment) and forced to resign. 2. Harris will be sworn in as president and read a nice speech (written for her by Obama) No more winging it word salads. 3. She will select Hillary Clinton as her VP. (She will give a great speech) This is her bone for helping to rid the Deep State of Trump. Bill Clinton will die and she will be all tears and Love for this “Great American” (The media and public will eat it up like candy and even Trump will be at the funeral and hug Hillary). 4. New Scandals will emerge pointing to corruption on the part of Harris (who pardons Joe and Hunter Biden) causing her to resign and Hillary will be President and face off DeSantis—and win. Trump being locked out of the GOP Convention for being a Felon.

Make no mistake. For a long time it’s not been about Biden but about the collection of liberal causes. Liberals don’t care whether they vote for Biden or another equivalent flag bearer that’s sanctioned by their media.

This election has got to be about policy, not individuals.

Hard to decide whether David Ignatius is really this IGNORANT, completely OUT OF TOUCH WITH REALITY, or just plain DECEITFUL.

They know only an old white guy can win, because he’s the only one who can get the votes of Anti-Trump “Republicans”.

...Biden risks undoing his greatest achievement — which was stopping Trump

At least he's honest enough to immediately give away his real intentions. He could care less about Biden's obvious corruption, his senile dementia and mental incapacity, fetanyl pouring in through an open border, the abuses of power, the growing lawlessness in our cities or the pandering to terrorists.

They just aren't issues AT ALL! Absolutely ZERO patriotism or concern about the future of this country. His only concern is that Trump will win if Biden is the Demrat standard bearer in 2024.

That's not a message to Joe, that's a message to Dr Jekyl Jill.

Don't kid yourself. He is the crème de la crème of the elites, in his own and their minds. They are almost a different species, and they are everywhere out there.
