We knew this was coming, but what a moment in U.S. history.
President Joe Biden officially dropped out of the 2024 race for the White House Sunday afternoon, ending his bid for re-election after a disastrous debate performance against Donald Trump. It was a performance that revealed his infirmity – mental and physical – which was something his team and a dishonest media have been denying and telling us not to believe for years now.
The Debate Debacle
That is how we got to this point. Biden lied. So did his vice president. So did his staff. And so did a compliant, complicit, lap dog media that ran to help them in this cover up. Only when we saw with our own eyes what a mess he was that night of the debate did their game plan fall apart. American citizens across the country said, ‘I can’t vote for that. That man can’t be president.’
Those of you who may have been focused on other things – like the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump – might have memory holed a bit what happened during that debate about a month ago. Well, it was full of moments when President Biden could not follow his own train of thought, and stared vacantly into space, and stood there with his mouth agape. That troubling sight raised a five-alarm fire for all ‘normies’ coast to coast.
It was a debacle. And not, as the left would put it thereafter, because he wasn’t able to make his great points against Donald Trump. It was a debacle because we saw that our sitting president and commander in chief – the man with the nuclear football – is non compos mentis.
He should be 25th Amendment-ed right out of office, but the Dems wouldn’t go that far. They understood what that would mean and probably were calculating that would also mean the immediate elevation of Kamala Harris to the presidency, which was not popular amongst Democrats because they don’t much like her. It is not just Republicans.
The Pressure Campaign
Immediately after that debate, I came on this show in a special live broadcast and told you point blank that Biden’s race for the White House was over whether he knew it or not. And indeed here we are – less than a month later – and he’s done exactly that. He has withdrawn, not from the presidency, but from his candidacy for a second term.
This man remains the commander in chief. Right now, he is not stepping down as president. He is infirm enough that he admits he can’t serve a second term, but he will hold on to the reins of power for some half a year still.
The reaction is pouring in from the left praising Joe Biden for his sacrifice, his patriotism, his selflessness. The insincerity of these dishonest people is stomach-turning and we are going to have to listen to this now for weeks. I mean, they really might submit him for sainthood. They are going to start the presidential library right now.
It was a classic case of the carrot or the stick and he ultimately did respond to the stick because the carrot didn’t seem to do it. They basically took that stick out and said, ‘We’re going to beat you, and it’s going to be painful for your whole family.’ And as soon as he put his ears back and his tail between his legs and said, ‘Okay, I’m gone.’ They were like, ‘Good little Joe Biden. You’re a good boy. You’re a national hero.’
This act is ridiculous. There really is something almost Shakespearean about it. The Democrat Party stabbed him. They stuck that knife in and turned it. They didn’t care at all about this man they are now telling us is a patriot and has a legacy that we need to respect. They stuck the knife in every single way they could.
There was a quote from one of the staffers on Friday saying, ‘They are Julius Caesar-ing him right now from the front and the back.’ That is exactly right. They didn’t actually respect his decision. That is what is crazy.
He should be gone. I agree with him being gone. But it was his decision to make, and they blackmailed this guy right out of the presidency. These people fight dirty and disgustingly and this is what Republicans are so worried about.
What Comes Next?
At the Republican National Convention, I spoke with a bunch of delegates and what I was asked more than anything else was: What about cheating?
There are those of us who think there was massive unfairness in the 2020 election, but we don’t think there was cheating in a way that would have stolen it from Donald Trump. I know many in my audience disagree with me on that, but my point simply is: This does kind of look like a coup against Biden, and why are we to believe that Democrats who are capable of doing this to the sitting president are not capable of cheating in an election?
It is all just so dysfunctional right now. They are dysfunctional within the Secret Service. They are dysfunctional within the State Department. They are dysfunctional within the intelligence community. The presidency and vice presidency right now is no exception. The media is no better.
We are about to watch Fraud: Part II take place where the original fraudsters try to pretend they never defrauded us and commit a new fraud, which is Kamala Harris’ hands are clean, she is also the second coming, and to save democracy we all have to go along with it. And oh by the way, they really, really care about old age, infirmity, and mixed up words and sentences now.
It is going to be a mind meld like we’ve never seen before. Buckle up, hold on to reality, and continue touching base with people who you know tell you the truth.
