Who is Trump’s real opponent? Not Joe Biden.
American Thinker ^ | 01/18/2024 | Joe Herring

Posted on 01/18/2024 8:27:27 AM PST by SeekAndFind

The post-Iowa consensus appears to be coalescing around the idea that Trump ought to ignore his GOP challengers and turn his focus entirely on Joe Biden. Clay Travis and Buck Sexton, of the Clay and Buck Show, suggested this would result in the “longest general election campaign in modern history.”

While I accept the premise, I wholeheartedly disagree with the target. Yes, Trump’s energies ought no longer be directed toward swatting flies on his rear, but pivoting toward Biden entirely is a strategic error.

Biden is a symptom, not a cause of America’s illness. The cause lies in the embrace by the Democrat party of a Marxist/fascist hybrid collectivism, to be elevated by any means necessary.

Biden will almost certainly be replaced before the general election, and not with Kamala Harris. This will likely be timed to happen very deep into the election cycle to ensure that Republicans have as little time as possible to expose the new nominee as the Marxist puppet he surely will be.

Given the puppeteer role Barack Obama has played in the present administration, the theory that Biden will be supplanted by Michelle Obama at the eleventh hour is emerging as the most credible.

The Democrat party will forcefully focus voters on the celebrity of their nominee to forestall meaningful scrutiny of her lackluster qualifications and the disturbing anti-white American animus evidenced throughout her life.

Of course, the left will have no shortage of media figures from Hollywood and entertainment television to spend dramatic amounts of time and treasure casting Trump as a vindictive, dangerous despot determined to drag any American politically left of center into gulags.

Well, he is already controlled by a bimbo dressed in couch fabric and goofy sneakers. The question really should be is who is controlling her?

I posted this scenario a couple of weeks back and I stand by it still:

Newsom is definitely next in line for the Dem. nomination.

1) Biden drops out for health reasons after securing the Dem nomination. He doesn’t resign, he just says he’s not running.
2) The DNC hands the nomination to Newsom; Biden gives his stamp of approval. (addendum: The DNC has a provision in their charter saying: If the nominee becomes incapacitated before the election, they can choose a replacement by simple majority vote).
3) Harris makes some noise but fades out with the promise of some $$ and a cushy job somewhere, or a promise of a SC nod if Newsom wins.
4) Newsom start campaigning as a “moderate” with a dark horse running mate. Definitely a woman, preferably a POC, but not Harris....who then?? (I’m thinking Gretchen Whitmer is also a possibility).
5) With Newsom running, JFK Jr.’s influence as a 3rd party spoiler wanes.

I guarantee, promise, with 100% confidence, that every single female DEM will pull the lever for Newsome.

I guarantee, promise, with 100% confidence, that a SIGNIFICANT number of female Independant voters will pull the lever for Newsome. “He’s so cute!”.

I guarantee, promise, with 100% confidence, that a SIZEABLE number of female REP voters will pull the lever for Newsome. “He’s so cute!”.

To believe that Biden will be Trump's opponent this year you must conclude the Democrat/Socialist Party is conceding the election. That conclusion goes against the Democrat/Communist Party's core principle to retain power at all costs; to do whatever it takes to advance their objective to, as the mulatto-marxist-muslim proclaimed publicly in 2008: "fundamentally transform the United States of America". They are so very close to achieving their objective that they are not about to concede anything!

Furthermore, the Democrat/Communist Party won't be able to cheat their way into a Biden second term as, for all their normal fecklessness, the GOP is onto them and, as importantly, the Democrat/Communist leaders certainly know they won't be able to neutralize the growing number of their base who, although they certainly won't vote for Trump, will instead likely sit out the election. That number is likely to be far too large to overcome by cheating.

So, no; I don't believe for a hot second that Eff-Joe Biden -- even if he is awareded the nomination by Democrat/Communist Party leaders early on -- will remain the nominee as we approach November.

Biden is a symptom, not a cause of America’s illness.

Horse manure! Biden is NOT a symptom but a facilitator of the Obama 3rd term. Joe doesn't have the smarts to be this diabolic but the big-eared, half-white a$$hole does.

Folks Obama even announced to Coldbert on late night television that he planned to run the country from his basement, while wearing sweats, by giving orders to a dimwit with an earpiece. Are people that slow that they can't comprehend what he said there?

Biden will probably not make it to the general election.

There is no Democrat Presidential candidate that survive the Democrat's radical and insane primaries and then be even remotely electable in the General election. It's likely that Democrats are hoping to keep Biden in as long as possible so they can dump an unvetted and undamaged ringer of a stealth candidate in the Presidential slot at the last minute.

In fact, the more see and hear from Democrat presidential candidates, the less you like them.

So there are a bunch of stealth candidates lurking in their basements waiting to be pressed into the 2024 race at the last minute when Biden either implodes or expires in office. Michelle Obama or Gavin Newsome are the most likely to pounce but

Concur. It early and they already see the writing on the wall. I believe evil controls the Democrat Party and they are never going to sit back and let Trump waltz back into office - never. Again, I point out what the Dems illegally did in NJ replacing by Torricelli with Lautenberg. The template is there. Local DC Dem judges will certainly let any Dem shenanigans pass and there may not be sufficient time for Supreme Court review.

Puppeteering takes a lot of work. After his first term, Obama was a part-time president. It’s hard to see him roaring back to work full time afterwards. The Democratic Party and the bureaucracy are at least as far left as Obama was. They are more committed to the cause than he was, and have more follow through than he did.

“Biden is a symptom, not a cause of America’s illness”

The real disease is Government. It’s a Government of the Government, for the Government, by the Government. It no longer serves the people. Those that support the Government and it’s corporate sponsors are rewarded, those that do not are taxed and punished. That’s what it is now, it’s a conflict between workers and the Taxed, and a Government that refuses to listen or help the Taxed.

Many would like to blame Obama, but it would have happened without Obama. The Financial growth of Government and employment have outpaced manufacturing and private sector for some time. Those government employees and Unions EXPECT the citizens to pay them more and more every year, and for government to grow, even when the tax revenue is actually shrinking (relative to inflation) and the government overspending is deeply damaging the economy.

Simply put, it’s not a political party problem in the classic sense. The Democrats are the party of choice for the government power structure, because they identify with government control of media, corporate cooperation with government, and overwhelming big central government, and conservatives do not. Those concepts are Marxist/Fascist, and have led to the illegal activities by the government: spying, interfering in elections, payoffs, corporate kickbacks, and media censorship.

The State Department, EPA, DOJ, FBI, CIA, ATF, Immigration, Homeland, all have agendas that they wish to protect, that don’t really correspond to national interest and especially the Taxpayers interest. They have enslaved the people by controlling the media, by selective prosecution, by taxing and failing to protect the average citizen or citizen interest.

IMHO, there will be an inevitable correction. It could be Donald Trump like or an internal correction or it could be a violent correction, but there will be a correction. US civil conflicts only help our enemies, destroy or lands and property, with little to gain. Therefore, I am forced to support an internal non-violent correction.

If they can still prop him up for the convention, he gets the nod.

Is Kamala the veep?

What if Biden falls into a Francisco Franco (comatose) state before the election?

PDJT’s real opponent?

The fraudulent-laced emergency mail-in balloting systems set up for Covidphobics in many states. Many of these illegal systems have not been cancelled.

Also system of counting votes used in some states called Ranked Choice Voting (RCV). Depending on the count of votes received by each candidate, RCV can assign your vote to someone you would otherwise not vote for. RCV is easily manipulated by running several ‘dark horse’ candidates and one preferred candidate. The intent is to dilute the opposition vote enough to get votes reassigned to the preferred candidate when the final tallies are made. The left is trying to make RCV the vote counting system of choice and has run enough test elections (Alaska 2022) to know what to do to insure an outcome favorable to them.

Dem slogan: “Save Democracy”

Reality: Fascism at its finest

Dump Biden, bring in the next puppet. Dem Super Delegate get to choose, not the run of the mill dems through primary elections.

When will the dems realize they are dupes.

Considering Zero is already running the show there’s no real advantage to him putting up Big Mike. He can more credibly prop up someone like Newsom or Mayor Pete.

Zero and Big Mike aren’t Bill and Hillary. They don’t need/in fact, don’t want Mike as a candidate for their grift.

All I can say it’s obvious they think they’re going to win so that means they’re going to steal another election. I believe they have to change their game plan this time and I really don’t know what it’s going to be. Maybe world war 3 martial law another contagion released from a lab....

I hear about Trump being a “populist”
***
When did this become a bad word for the public.

All elected officials should be populists. Elected by the people, the people’s choice, not a candidate selected by a puppeteer committee of the elite, and force fed to the population.

It seems the more the mainstream media declares that they are trying to save democracy, the more we are fulfilling the definition of fascism.

Fascism: “A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, a capitalist economy subject to stringent governmental controls, violent suppression of the opposition, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism”.

A political philosophy or movement based on or ad
