That is their own way of paying tribute to ones who really pull the strings and putting "America First"

Netanyahu is not a good and honorable man.

Donald Trump is not a good and honorable man.

Joe Biden is both.

"Joe Biden is both."

Puppets or those easily manipulated are often either depicted and/or mistaken as such.

Abraham Lincoln was a good and honorable man.

Biden is simply "a spent piece of Beltway flotsam with a swiss-cheese brain being used as a ventriloquist doll by DC swamp monsters to commit genocide, expand the American war machine, and play nuclear chicken with Russia." (not my words, but they are the the most succinct I've yet read)

Biden is just an ordinary politician, who happens to be at advanced age. It takes someone like Trump (and Trump's supporters) to make an ordinary career politician look like a good and honorable man in comparison.

How can Biden be speaking?

He's dead according to Bobert.

He is either dead or incapacitated and needs to show "proof of life."

These people are a danger to themselves and others.

This election cycle has already been like none other but Biden could drop an even bigger surprise on the race and announce his resignation thus making Kamala the first female President and the incumbent.
I mean, I don't really think that would happen but then again if you asked me a few days ago if Biden would drop out I would have said no way.

So is yours.

Biden will be remembered as a top tier President who put his life on the line to stop Donald J Trump and his hateful maga agenda. He was also one of the most productive presidents in modern history doing more for Americans in 4 years than most who had 8 years in office.

And as we all just should have learned ... it's not over until it's over.

LOL. The great American Martyr! He selflessly sacrificed his second term because there was no way in hell he could beat Trump twice! Time to crack open that fissure in Mt. Rushmore and insert his granite head between Roosevelt and Lincoln!

Joe Biden is the James Buchanan of our era. He'll likely be remembered as that genocide-supporting, career swamp-zombie with incipient dementia who ushered in trillion dollar military budgets, 5 dollar jars of mayonnaise, an humanitarian aid pier to nowhere, MAGA resurgence, and was the unfortunate clown who held the doors open for the second American Civil War.

This would likely be met with an immediate response from the House leadership that they will refuse to confirm any new VP nominee, causing it to be vacant until January 20th.

""Curious what specifically you think Biden should have done in that front.""

Don't mistake Biden for someone who ever could do anything other than what he was allowed to do by those really in charge, who I will simply call "The Law". He was always a doorkeeper-- a door holder for others. And now he is holding the door open for Kamala Harris. But she is just another door holder, who is only being allowed to say things and do things demanded by "The Law". And so it goes 9until the second Civil War breaks out).

Trump had a real opportunity to stop this incessant chain of doorkeeping. But he failed miserably (as most knew he would) and he became just another would-be despot, with and his hopeful followers becoming nothing more than a single-minded mob of brainwashed cult-followers.

As the primary doorkeeper to the impenetrable and imposing structure that represents the sum and totality of "The Law", Biden had the responsibility to hold the door open for those already inside, and for those who could go through without question, but for those who are not allowed he would gently raise his elderly, statesman-like hand in front of the open door and politely tell them that they cannot go in 'at the present time", giving the illusion that they may, at some future point, be allowed to go through.

The person who could not proceed "at the present time" will wait patiently by the door for years. He will use every negotiating tactic at his disposal, and the door will still remain open, but he will still be told by the doorkeeper that, "it is not time at present". As he waits, many others will appear behind him and will somehow be allowed to pass through the door without question. Curiously, he never sees anyone come walking out.

Years will pass, and he will grow restless in his middle-age and attempt to bribe the doorkeeper with what little of value he still has left in his possession. The doorkeeper will accept the bribe with a slight smile, but will tell the man that he's only accepting it "so you can feel that you have done everything you could think of to try passing through".

Many years later, the frail and feeble-minded old man will finally be allowed to pass through the door, only to find himself in another, larger room with another open door, with another doorkeeper. To his surprise, everyone that he witnessed previously passing through the initial door without question will be found sitting inside that larger room, waiting. For decades the man had grown insanely jealous of these fortunate creatures, thinking them entitled or in possession of some sort of secret knowledge allowing passage. At this point he would bleakly realize that his vengeful daytime thoughts and nightly teeth grindings and waking moments of breathlessness, palpitations and indigestion were all for naught.

"If only all of us could stand up at once and, at a run, force our way through the door!" the man will think to himself, and as he makes up his mind to stand up, walk over to and entreat the others to join in on his brilliant plan, he would notice the doorkeeper closing the door and locking it. "Why have you shut the door and locked it?!?" the old man will scream with what will end up being his last earthly breaths. The doorkeeper will only smile slightly and reply, "The Law demands that the guilty- all of those who have long ago broken The Law, are currently breaking The Law, but also those who may someday try or even WISH to break The Law, shall never, ever enter."

But regardless he has literally put his life on the line for you. He stopped the Trump agenda dead in its tracks. Sorry you can't understand or appreciate that. But you will. And history will record it appropriately. And he will always be rated way above Trumpy.

Understand that Biden or any president can shut down the "people behind them" at any point quite easily. I mean really if they are so bought and paid for why didn't Trump or Biden shut down the people behind the other? Because it is all a fairy tale.

Don't get me wrong...

- Politicians of all ilks are mostly much bought and paid for as they are indebted to their major donors and special interests.

- There is a "deep state" but it isn't the sinister thing that the right makes it out to be - it is simply the bureaucrats that keep government functioning no matter who is in charge. There is no hidden deep state agenda. The agendas come and go with the top level management. There are certainly sinister parts of groups within the government (Say the NSA) but for the most part even those groups in the deep state share the goal of keeping the US safe and functioning.

Well, he could've put a bullet through his head before he became just another in a long line of bureaucratic doorkeepers, but ambition is a powerful thing.

Democrats still don't get how Trump managed to become so popular so quickly. Inherent racism, nativism and just plain stupidity doesn't fully answer that question. As a result, the door stays open and the 2nd Civil War gets closer.

There are traitors in every era. There will always be charismatic men who wish to gain power for powers sake.

Even George Washington warned us at the very beginnings of our great experiment in his farewell speech.

Washington warned us that there will be "designing men," thirsty for power, who will try to create distrust among the country's different regions. And we should always be on guard against such efforts, he said, for "your Union ought to be considered as a main prop of your liberty."

The Union. That is the United States. Not the divided states as Trumpy is promoting.

The US Military Brass doesn't do Insurrections... they take their Constitutional duty very seriously in that regard.

There are some Trumpers in the ranks, sure, but the Leadership has never liked Trump and never will.

Late in the day on J6, there was a squad of Seal Team 6-ish shooters in the Capitol ready to end the Insurrection riot, permanently.

Back on topic (which is not me)

Kings and dictators do not rule ... the people do.

The defining trait of a true leader is how they relinquish power and pass the torch. And Biden has displayed the character of a true leader and a true American that has put uniting his party and his country above himself.

I say we vote for his endorsed replacement right now but stop voting at midnight before we fall behind in the count.

The current president can then declare who the next president is because it's his official duty to make sure it's done correctly!

And if the President does it then it's not illegal. By definition. Maga definition.

Gotta love Joe. He is one solid human in all the best ways. The speech tonight was humble and gracious.

The defining trait of a true leader is how they relinquish power and pass the torch. And Biden has displayed the character of a true leader and a true American that has put uniting his party and his country above himself.

Add to that he didn't undermine his colleagues because he knew the job is temporary, and above all risky. A good leader always has someone to back them up if something happens. Trumpanzee wanted to kill his last VP because he upheld the law.

Trumpanzee on the other hand crushed the competition in his own party to take his sport rendering him the only one able to lead his cl0wn brigade.

A little lesson for you cl0wns... the reason we lost to rag tag mobs of "rebels and insurgents" after two decades of war as the "best military in the whirled" is because no matter how many of their "numero unos in command" we killed... a week later there was a new one to take it's place... all the while republicl0wn war hawks were insisting they... the enemy forces" were disorganized and weak... which is sort of how you cl0wns talk about anything that isn't republicl0wn. Then you pin your hopes on a single bloatbag who tells you what you want to hear... and deludes you into thinking it's possible to make people bend to your will.... because for some sad sicko reason it's what you need to feel... I dunno... "whole" I guess?

Joe Biden didn't -------- his cabinet... Trumpanzee did and the ones who arrived ----------- ones he turned into .... erm... shameless brazen bimbo headed hussies... not good for anything... cept maybe castrating pigs... ironic... and public hissy fits.

Tired, OLD, delusional, addle-brained, dotard Trumpanzee is all the cl0wns have... because they don't have the nads to cross him... and they want to lead the free world? give me a fekking break

My in-laws go out to Sturgis every year! My wife would welcome you with open arms.

Funny story: at the height of the COVID epidemic, we had committed to visiting the in-laws (rural Minnesota) even before the shut downs. Leading up to the flight, I confided with my doctor about our situation: San Diego couple heading into rural Minnesota house that will also have visitors from Miami and New York City, a matter of hours after the in-laws return from Sturgis. This was in 2020.

My doctor responded: "That's a recipe for disaster!"

Whelp, we risked it, arrived in rural Minnesota to dozens of family members, without masks, and demanding hugs. Family from 4 hotspots, all congregating into one household, along with other local family, without masks, close contact....JFC it was a god damn miracle nobody got sick.

"Biden could drop an even bigger surprise on the race and announce his resignation thus making Kamala the first female President and the incumbent."

She couldn't run for a second term in 2028 (her first would only be just under 6 months), so that's not going to happen.

I'm not sure that's true. I think if a VP becomes president by succession and serves less that 2 years, they still can do two full 4-year terms.

She could run in 2028 since her first term would be under 2 years long. Remember it's 10 years or two full terms. Whichever one comes first.

I think you are wrong about that. here is LBJ's timeline:

"36th President of the United States
In office
November 22, 1963 " January 20, 1969"

He served a partial as VP and then POTUS after the Kennedy assassination. 1 and 1/2 terms. He chose not to run in 1968 and I am not aware that his eligibility was ever challenged. My understanding is that when a VP takes over it's not an elected term. So, hypothetically, if Trump were to win and then bowed out shortly after being sworn in, Vance would fill in as Trump and would then still be eligible for 2 terms as the presidential candidate.

The only reason why Republicans want Joe Biden to resign is to make it harder for Kamala Harris to run for the presidency cause she would have to scramble to carry out the rest of Biden's duties that are already down the pipeline. Biden shouldn't resign. He should complete his term in office and then Kamala Harris can start fresh with her first term if she wins that is.

#111 | Posted by LauraMohr at 2024-07-25 01:29 AM | Reply

I feel shame. I'm extremely enamored with the 21st Amendment and with the 22nd I've always fixated on the 2-term aspect without focusing on VP being thrust into the role.

#112 | Posted by BellRinger at 2024-07-25 01:29 AM | Reply

#111 Laura Mohr,

I want Biden to resign because I firmly believe he is not capable of carrying out his basic duties and I also believe he hasn't been calling the shots for a while, possibly from the beginning of his presidency, which is appalling on so many levels.

If Biden were to resign Harris becomes the actual incumbent and politically I think it helps her unless the strategy is to try and separate her from Biden and his policies, which is difficult whether or not she's the actual incumbent.

Replacing Biden with her is a classic risk/reward scenario. She creates a track-record as the one calling the shots. Great if her decisions are popular. Bad if she flops.

#113 | Posted by BellRinger at 2024-07-25 01:35 AM | Reply

Biden should enact a crapton of Executive Orders on the way out, then pardon his son. He doesn't have any f's to give, as a lame duck, so there are some parting gifts he can send to the Repubican Party on his way out.

Thanks for the correction on the 10 year thing...

Just because you "firmly believe" it, doesn't make it true. Biden's been historically successful as POTUS, and can leave office with pride having accomplished so much for the American people.

Yet another straw man...you should start a business.

Biden has been an obvious train-wreck well prior to his disastrous debate. The only reason he got forced out is because 90 minutes of split-screen disaster is impossible to spin, so the elites forced him out; not because he can't govern in his diminished capacity (they don't care about that one iota), but because it was so bad that he simply has no path to victory.

He has no business continuing his current role and the longer he stays the more the talking point develops that Harris is less than the true leader of the party.

My belief (could be wrong) is this hold-out is all about a Hunter pardon. The only way Biden can guarantee it happens post-election is if he's still POTUS.

Otherwise, just hand over the reins and it strengthens her legitimacy which is currently kind of weak.

"Republicans have speculated the president will pardon his son, with Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz saying the odds of Biden pardoning Hunter sit at 100%.

"I'm going to place the odds that Joe Biden pardons Hunter Biden at 100%. Hunter Biden will get a pardon as a result of this decision," Cruz said during his podcast, "Verdict with Ted Cruz," on Monday, referring to Biden's decision this week to drop out of the presidential race.

"It will not happen till after Election Day. He's not going to do it before Election Day. But he's going to stick around. And after Election Day, I believe it is now 100% that Joe Biden will pardon Hunter," he added."

"I'm the first president in this century to report to the American people that the United States is not at war anywhere in the world" said Joe Biden last night.

About a half hour before Biden delivered his address, US Central Command announced that it launched new strikes targeting the Houthis in Yemen. Since January, the US has carried out hundreds of strikes in Yemen as part of a new war that has not been authorized by Congress.

US naval commanders have described the fight against the Houthis in the Red Sea as "the largest naval battle the US has been engaged in since World War II."

Back in April, US military officials said the munitions used in the Red Sea and other bombings President Biden ordered in Iraq and Syria since October 7 had cost the US about $1 billion.
