I heard a lot of commentary the other day that the special counsel report was Joe’s death knell. Now that GOTTA dump him.
WRONG!
Surely, Joe’s presser, where he declared that the Mexican president was in control of the border … in Gaza … was the final straw. They GOTTA dump him after that fiasco, went the commentary.
WRONG AGAIN!
(Oatmeal brain used Egypt’s President Sisi’s name when he referred to Mexican President Obrador.)
This Hur report was definitely the long-awaited move to get ol’ mushbrains out of office, the theory goes.
In reality, the special counsel protected Biden. They pulled a Comey … "no self-respecting jury would find a doddering old, well-meaning man.” Blah blah blah. Funny that Hur didn’t even present the case to a grand jury.
If Hur were instructed by the Demmie Party apparatus to take out Biden with a kill shot, he could have easily empaneled a GJ and secured an indictment and presented it to Congress for impeachment. But, instead, he (they) devised a laughable excuse to prevent pursuing further. That is clearly NOT a signal that he/they decided it’s time for Biden to be taken out to make way for … Michael O? Newsom? Kamala?
It makes no sense to think Joe will allow himself to be taken out, or that anyone else does *better* than Joe. They’re stuck with Joe. Hur made sure of this.
About the presser? “Breaking News!!! Joe bumbled”. Wait. That’s not breaking news. That’s any day that ends in ‘Y’.
Overall, Team Biden had to put this behind them to clear Joe of the issue in time for his run. Remember that someone in DOJ ratted out ol’ Joe. So there was the unavoidable need to dispose of the case. The origin was unplanned, but the outcome was most definitely planned to protect ol’ Joe.
If they really wanted to replace Joe, there’d be a whole different set of actions taken.
