Less than a year away from disaster, what will the Democrats do?

I guess by now you've all seen the video of President Brandon appearing to get lost while laying a wreath at a Veterans Day ceremony on Friday. If not, you can see it, along with some comment from Sky News Australia's "The Sunday Showdown", here.

The Democrats have a problem -- an incumbent President who is eligible for a second term, potentially even worse than the first.

Still, Senile Joe insists that's he's going to seek re-election, notwithstanding that every poll and virtually every pundit predicts that he'll get thrashed.

The Democrats who are not Dumbocrats know this. Behind close doors, even those who are in thrall to the Deep State, expressing their confidence in Senile Joe's ability (and sanity), are wracking their alleged brains to find a way to dump him, while there's still time to nominate someone with a chance, however slim, of pulling their nuts out of the fire... so to speak.

Further reading: "Lefties beg Brandon 'Don't run, Joe!'", WWW 13/7/22. And yes, they've been casting about for alternatives since before the could've-been-worse results of  the mid-terms. The pleas to leave are much louder now, for it's certain that when Brandon drowns in the Trump tsunami, he'll take others -- Denocratic governors, Democratic senators, and Democratic Congresspersons -- with him. Walt predicts that the 2024 elections could result in a Republican double majority which would last for at least eight years. (Lifetime pct .988.)

What to do, then? How about if Brandon retires now "to spend more time with his family" (possibly in a federal facility of the barred kind)? 

That would give the lovely and fragrant Kamala Harris -- America's first almost-black female vice-president -- almost a year to climb out of the deep hole in the approval ratings into which she's dug herself. If you don't recall how she managed it, check out the VIDEO in "If Brandon dies, this woman would become President", WWW 2/5/23.

Maybe not such a good idea when it comes to electability. Some people still feel sorry for Poor Old Joe, and believe the mess he's in was made by the Boy. But when it comes to Ms Harris, people just laugh.

But hang on! Walt thought of a solution, the latest in a long line of brilliant but under-appreciated ideas. See "How Brandon can get rid of the Three Witches", WWW 18/8/23. In a nutshell [? Ed.], Senator Dianne Feinstein (the eldest witch) would retire, then Camela would resign and Gavin Newsom would appoint her to serve out the rest of Not-so-Feinstein's term.

Are you still with me? Ms Harris's resignation would leave the Veep position open, so Crooked Joe could appoint Crooked Hellery Clinton to the position, which would be a springboard to a third try for the presidensity after Brandon steps down at the end of this year, as predicted by my goodself last January

It was a fine plan, IMHO, which Gavin Newsom screwed up by appointing Laphonza Butler as the new senator from California after Ms Feinstein obligingly died. The Fonz's only qualifications for office seem to be that she is (a) black, (b) a woman, (c) a Democrat and (d) President of EMILY's List, a fundraising juggernaut that works to elect Democratic women who support abortion rights. How California is that!

Why would Governor Newsom make an appointment which offers no support whatever to the Democrats' 2024 campaign? Surely it has nothing to do with Mr Newsom's own presidential ambitions. His name was mentioned when the Dumbocrats were beating the bullrushes for a candidate in 2020, but he chickened out. My guess is he intends to sit idly by while the Dems implode, in order to present himself after a decent interval as the right man to lead the Party as it "builds back better". Dream on, Gavin, dream  on.

    Democrats 2024 ticket will magically emerge from their nominating convention and not before. They want to surprise us with Michelle Big Mike Obama, and s/he doesn’t want to be bothered with any pre-convention campaigning.
