Guest Post by Jim Kunstler
Anybody else notice Joe Biden styling himself as Abe Lincoln this week? Uh, bad career move, pal. Someone ought to notify the Democratic Party leader that a) Mr. Lincoln was a Republican, and b) that he was a racist (BLM certified). The presidential frontrunner is unlikely to win more “woke” hearts-and-minds with this latest stunt. Maybe if they put him in a wheelchair the voters would think he was the second coming of Franklin Roosevelt (though he actually looks more like post-stroke Woodrow Wilson, a racist to the bone, they say).
Notice, too, that Uncle Joe appeared in Honest Abe drag to announce that US coronavirus deaths had reached “a hundred and twenty million.” Say, what? That would be roughly one-third of the US population! Excuse me for wondering if the candidate is being a little less than perfectly frank with us. And the costume didn’t really put that gag over, either. Anyway, the Democratic Party must be lovin’ it, despite the crocodile tears about the virus shed by The New York Times, because a new wave means that even more American businesses will be destroyed, more jobs lost, more careers extinguished, the battered economy will get brutally smacked down again, and it will all make President Trump look even more unelectable.
Suspicious minds may be prompted to wonder whether years of fake news from Wokesterdom’s media allies have finally produced the ultimate hoax: a completely fake candidate for president. Mr. Biden has gone-to-ground for three months since sweeping the Super Tuesday primaries by some strange coup of polling station magic. No campaign glad-handing, baby-kissing, and maiden-sniffing among those virus-saturated crowds for Uncle Joe this time around! And Gawd forbid any press conferences or spontaneous remarks — poor Mr. Biden tends to flub even his scripted statements. It’s a bit hard to imagine how his acceptance speech will go… and… Lordy… the debates! In the immortal words of rap impresario Jay-Z, “Nigga, Please!” (available on Amazon Music, by the way— thank you, Jeff Bezos, humanitarian).
This Joe Biden thang is being set up as some kind of bait-and-switch, but the scheme is a little too obvious, dontcha think? Mr. Biden has obliged himself to choose a “woman-of-color” as his running mate, of course, and so it is assumed that about twenty minutes after the swearing-in on January 20, 2021, Stacey Abrams (or Val Demings, or Kamala Harris, or Tawana Brawley) will become defacto president, and it will be off to the races, so to speak. It’s a cute gambit, but I don’t see it playing out.
You may be unaware of this but the Democratic Party is actually owned, lock-stock-and-barrel, by the Clinton Foundation. It has something else in mind. Due to the unfortunate last minute discovery of Joe Biden’s incapacity to serve, She Whose Turn Was Thwarted will perforce be the party nominee for an epic rematch with the Golden Golem of Greatness. Let’s face it: everybody wants to see that contest. And an election with mail-in ballots will cinch her victory.
In the meantime, she remains concealed deep in her Chappaqua, New York, Fortress of Solitude, mirthfully free of having to offer her views on the current goings-on across America. Speaking of which, you’d think that her place-holder, Mr. Biden, would grudge up a comment or two about all the mayhem loosed upon the land these recent fevered weeks, a few soothing words requesting that the Resistance youth corps of America desist from looting, arson, and pulling down statues of every dead white person ever mistakenly placed on a pedestal to beam waves of racist hatred at the oppressed multitudes. But he remains enigmatically silent about it.
Perhaps no one has informed him of all the action in the streets since the tragic killing of George Floyd. What’s quite a bit stranger, though, is the silence of Joe Biden’s mentor and spirit-guide, former president Barack Obama. Surely Mr. Obama has witnessed the mayhem from Seattle’s Capitol Hill to Chicago’s Magnificent Mile, from Midtown Manhattan’s Fifth Avenue to Lafayette Park just across the way from the place he called home for eight years. Surely he would be The One to call for an end to the violent destruction. Has something got him distracted? What could it be…?

Right script, but wrong actress. Big Mike is the president in waiting. Only he can wave his hand and quell the masses on the left. After he does this, Biden will bow out due to failing (mental) health.
Big Mike will promise peace and prosperity for all time and will be the last POTUS of the United States of America.
TN, That has been my opinion as well: Michelle gets (reluctantly) installed. But… Biden cannot (literally cannot, not physically/cognitively able. Poor old guy) campaign for President. He can’t plausibly serve as a placeholder for a VP that will be installed a very short time (days? Hours?) after the everyone-knows-it-is-a-scam election. So Big Mike has to replace Biden in some sort of operation at the virtual DNC Convention. And somehow a woman who refused consideration, and stated publicly that she was opposed to the idea, and who never sought or recieved one vote in any primary, wh has no experience in any position of intellectual rigor, or authority, or management is going to be put in for the Dem nomination ahead of Sanders, Warren, etc. etc. And how does this end well?
ODdly enough, Trump will surely leave office if he is not selected (forget real elections, they are done) for another term, but Big Mike will HAVE to take office if Trump is selected. If Big Mike is selected, a wjhole lot of people (45% easy) of the population will be actively opposed to the scam many Bernie Bros. among them
I keep telling you guys she has a record. She was involved in a criminal insurance fraud with her client and lied to the judge in court. She had to choose surrendering her license or being charged with a felony. Now the “excuse” for her no longer being licensed is that she just didn’t pay the small fee to renew her license ($95) because she presumably had better things to do. That doesn’t pass the smell test since you don’t get to just go plunk down $95 and say “renew my license please” if you have allowed it to lapse. You have to pay hundreds of Dollars or more and sit through the state bar exam again which takes two entire days.
SHE ISN’T RUNNING!
Hmmm…… so let’s see. Rules…… regulations……. Dems…….. impediments to holding political office………. malfeasance…………
Nope. I just don’t see how Big Mike is disqualified.
Big Mike for the win. Agreed.
Obama could give a rat’s ass how many statues fall. He is a total narcissist who managed to destroy his own party, leaving it in its current sorry state, and is only worried about his legacy. How would you feel if you were in his shoes, with someone like Joe Biden as the standard bearer for your administration? Whatever filter Joe has on his mouth long ago got clogged up, and there is no telling what he might say when under pressure or in a moment of confusion. “Is that you Barack? I gave Strzok the back-up plan, just like you said.” Strzok’s recently disclosed notes raise a lot of problems for Barry, legal and otherwise, and will be the basis of a lot of books written about his administration; it IS his legacy now. You should consider getting ahead of the pack, Jim, and write your own book. I even have a title for you, sure to cause a sensation: “Black Mischief.” You’re welcome.
Curiouser and curiouser.
I don’t think it really matters, the policy remains basically the same, the ship is headed for the shoals, it is rudderless, and all the passengers have been told the the life boats are on the opposite side that they are on.
so everyone runs back and forth, looking for anything to hold on to, but it doesn’t matter, ((submarines)) have a lock on the ship, if it doesn’t crash into it’s target, it will get torpedoed from below.
at the end of the day, for as long as you all have been alive, it has never mattered who’s name was on the captains door.
The people who steer the boat, are getting their orders from a ((SECRET)) radio link, and they are bypassing the orders from the caption, and doing whatever their ((paymasters)) tell them to do.
Regards,
from somebody who is watching your ship, from an island, ruled by the same fucking assholes that run your ship.
When I see them barbequing bologna and drinking malt liquor in the Hamptons then we’ll know for sure they have the votes to install Biden and not until then…….
I’m betting that Biden gets elected President without ever stating his positions or debating. The virus will put the kibosh on any debates. Biden will stay quietly locked in his cellar where he can’t utter anything stupid that the public can hear. On election night he’ll come out to the podium and say: “Thank you” and that’s it. When he is sworn in on the steps of the Capitol he will say “Yes” or “I do” or whatever few words a new President is suppose to say. In all cases where he must speak in public, even stating only a few words, he will be wearing an earpiece so his handlers can tell him exactly how to respond.
Half the country just wants to get rid of Trump and they don’t care who the alternative is. They’d vote for Kim Jong-un if it meant Trump would no longer be President.
One of the only mysteries at this point is who will be President in February 2021, after Biden has an “accident.” The other mystery is who the hell would want to be the next President. Even if the CoVid bug fades away after the election (wouldn’t that be suspicious), the economy will be in the toilet that makes the Great Depression look like high times. Unemployment will be over 25%. Families and businesses will be defaulting on their mortgages and loans in massive numbers. The Fed will be printing so much money that our deficit will skyrocket.
Only a dumb-ass aspiring politician would want to step into that heaping pile of turds. But dumb-ass and politician are synonyms, aren’t they.
Silent Joe instead of Silent Cal [ Calvin Coolidge ].
I think Biden was all set to pick Klobuchar as VP until George Floyd got murdered. He would have stabbed the blacks in the back in an effort to secure MN, WI, MI and PA with a “moderate” white lady. Now he has to pick a black woman. And no it’s not going to be Michelle Obama. The smartest pick would probably be Val Demings of Florida, but he’s probably going to go with that giggling skank Kamala Harris.
I call Biden Gaffe Master Crash. Wait until he debates Trump.
