Joe Biden has no public events scheduled for tomorrow and his calendar the rest of the week as of now is blank.

Joe Biden has no reason to return to the White House, ever.  The only task they have remaining is to build a small housing unit on their beach property that they can rent out to the Secret Service agents (at $10k/mo) that will be protecting them the rest of their miserable lives.

Biden didn’t drop out of the race until after the attempts to imprison and assassinate Donald Trump failed.

Do you think that is coincidence?

Look at this logically.

Who is the single most powerful entity in the Democommie Party?  Who????

              Barack Obama

Where is the convention being held?  [and I believe it was originally intended to be held elsewhere from what I read]

Where????

               Chicago


While we all assume the Dems are idiots, and they are, they are not completely stupid to picking a candidate

Do the Dems like using Hollywood, or Hollywood directed efforts to accomplish a desired end?


                Absolutely!


So how do I see this unfolding"


They hold up Harris as the desired pick, states announce their delegates will support her.  BUT, BIG BUT, she falls short of the needed vote to get confirmed as THE CANDIDATE.  There might even be a number of rounds with a vote falling short. 

Then, other names get thrown in the hat, and again more rounds, but in the end, they fully support their choice, and that choice will NOT be Harris.

All choreographed like a New York play!

I expect it will be one of two things.  BIG MIKE, by unanimous acclimation, great fanfare, etc.  Even Harris stands there dancing on her behalf.  Harris will become the Secretary of some cabinet. 

                                                                 or

It will be a relative no name.  Sen Manchin could come back into the fold as a Democommie, but it will not matter.  Bernie ran for the Democommie Party nomination, and he was a Democratic Socialist.  I do not see Sen Manchin going far.  He ended his career becoming an Independent.

Then there is RFK Jr, who has also made an appeal that he is available.  And why shouldn't he, he has been a Democommie all his life.  But alas, they will spit in his face, not caring he is a Kennedy.  And why?  Because Obama is running the show.

So, who?  Well, I doubt it is Newsom, Whitmer, or J. B. Pritzker.  And with antisemitism being what it is in the USA, and particularly in the Democommie Party, forget Shapiro.  Not going to happen!!

My guess is that it will be someone like Gov Andy Beshear.  And if he does not make the cut for POTUS, I can see him making it for VP easily.

Shakespeare has the answer after all.

                   THE LADY DOTH PROTEST TOO MUCH, ME THINKS

And no, it is not Gertrude from Hamlet, it is Michelle from the trilogy Obama, Obama's Little Me, and Obama Returns.



So, I see an Obama/Beshear ticket, and fanfare like we have never seen.  And one way or another, Trump gets rolled, and the Democommies remain in power for eight more years.  And so do the Obamas with a 4th and 5th term.  Just like I am sure his idol, Vlad.

White House website finally updated.  With this:


PHYSICIAN TO THE PRESIDENT
THE WHITE HOUSE
21 July 2024

MEMORANDUM FOR:
KARINE JEAN-PIERRE
ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT AND
WHITE HOUSE PRESS SECRETARY
FROM:
KEVIN C. O'CONNOR, D.O., FAAFP
PHYSICIAN TO THE PRESIDENT
SUBJECT:
President Biden COVID Update

President Biden completed his eighth dose of P AXLOVID this morning. His symptoms have
improved significantly. His pulse, blood pressure, respiratory rate and temperature remain absolutely
normal. His oxygen saturation continues to be excellent on room air. His lungs remain clear.
In yesterday's update, I incorrectly stated that the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) KP.2.3 variant
accounted for approximately 33.3% of new cases in the United States. The correct percentage is
approximately 12.8%.
The President continues to tolerate treatment without any difficulty and will continue PAXLOVID as
planned. He continues to perform all of his presidential duties.
I will continue to keep your office updated with any changes in his condition or treatment plan.
Respectfully submitted,
�'c:::C"' �

Still no mention of any statement from Biden.

Biden indicated he will give an address the end of the week.  Most likely late afternoon, Friday, which is when politicians like to inform the public.

why doesn't he resign from the presidency if he's too weak to run again?? Kamalaphobia?
The last thing we want is for him to resign. That makes Cameltoea the incumbent.

That's not exactly correct.

Barak is not qualified to run as President due to the 22nd Amendment, but there is no prohibition for him running as Kamala's VP.

This is the scenario I have been dreading to happen as we all know Kamala will not last long as President if the Harris/Obama ticket wins, a real possibility as Dems would be voting for their hero Barak, not for Harris.
Actually he can't because you have to be able to assume the office of POTUS and he can't because he is term limited.

The shadow government that has been running our country just forced the democratically-chosen candidate out because they were afraid he'd lose. Same people claiming Trump is a threat to democracy just took a sledgehammer to it.
Keep this in mind when you vote in November.

Joe Biden never endorsed Kamala in the letter.
Who wrote the X post endorsing Kamala as the nominee? We know it wasn't Joe. He doesn't use social media.
There appears to be no additional letter on this topic.
Who decided to throw Joe Biden's delegates to Kamala?

Here’s what happens next:

1) Watch to see if the Obamas and Pelosi/Schumer endorse Kamala. If they do, she is the nominee. If they don’t, there will be some form of open convention.

2) At a minimum, the Democrat VP primary is now underway. That could be over by this time tomorrow, or go to the convention.

3) Whoever their nominee is will then be subject to the greatest PR offensive in American history. You will see this candidate everywhere they control in media and pop culture between now and their only presidential debate. And the coverage will be beyond fawning. This will make Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce look subtle.

4) Ultimately that candidate may not be able to stand up to Trump on the debate stage, but between their ascension and then they are gonna make lots of deposits in their favorables account.

5) The Democrat-Media Complex will gaslight us they tried to hide a senile president for years, and immediately pivot to they are now the party of a new generation. They will soon try to brand Trump and Republicans as the codger candidate and the party of yesteryear. They know the most dominant polling trend this cycle is a majority of Americans wanted a fresh face they originally did not get from the primaries.

6) They can still sentence Trump to prison in September in Manhattan. And if you think there is no chance of that, we just watched them leave Trump unprotected in an open field for an assassin last weekend. But their main goal will be creating a credible enough narrative with a new candidate to justify “fortifying” another election.

Amendment XII

But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.

@IsailedawayfromFR   @Right_in_Virginia
can you point out the place in the Constitution which disqualifies Barack?

Hint: It cannot be the 22nd Amendment as that pertains only to being elected as President.  Barack would not be running for that office, but the office of VP.

No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.

BTW, if you google the 22nd amendment, this pops up which means the elites may already be setting up Barack as Kamala's VP running mate.

The amendment also includes a loophole that allows someone who has served two terms as president to be elected vice president, or to become president after serving as vice president or speaker of the house. This could allow someone to be elected vice president even if they know the president plans to resign immediately after taking office.

Except for the fact that if necessary should something happen to the president the VP would take his/her place.  Obama wouldn't be able to fulfill that duty, unless there was an amendment put into place allowing a 3rd term.

Article II, Section 1, Clause 6 stipulates that the vice president takes over the "powers and duties" of the presidency in the event of a president's removal, death, resignation, or inability.
