The writing is on the wall. It’s game over for Biden and company.
And now the big President Biden replacement news has Democrats officially jumping ship.
Anyone who watched more than two minutes of that debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden hosted by CNN and is honest agrees that Joe Biden walked out of that debate looking extremely weak. All the election betting odds improved for Donald Trump a mere dozen minutes into the debate because it was clear that Joe Biden was not okay in any way shape or form.
Donald Trump didn’t even have to have slam dunk moments like he did in 2016. He did have those (the “I have no idea what he just said” moment was pretty great), but this night was more about Joe Biden’s clear and sad state. There’s no more gaslighting the Americans into believing that Joe Biden is okay and he is up to the task for another term.
Of course, as everyone knows by now, the Leftist media is completely panicking. Even CNN’s Anderson Cooper was forced to put Kamala Harris herself on the hotspot and not let her off easy when asking her about how Americans are supposed to view Biden positively after that horrible performance. Spoiler alert: Kamala Harris falls flat on her face trying to sweep this under the rug.
Biden’s Bleeding Heart Loyalists vs. Those Who Smell The Roses
So while there’s some Biden loyalists out here trying to play the damage control game, most are saying that it’s game over for Joe Biden and company. The odds for the field of Democrats not named Joe Biden have skyrocketed since the start of the debate. This has led many to wonder what’s next for the Democrat Party, and who could actually be tapped to step in.
What’s particularly telling is how the more independent media outlets who are still Democrat-friendly and definitely on the side of the Left are reacting. How are they reacting you might ask? Well, it’s doomsday. Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks and company, a far-Left so-called “progressive” and self-proclaimed radical network, is saying that if Joe Biden remains in office that Trump and Republicans will easily sweep all of Washington, D.C. in November.
Warning: There’s intense levels of radical Leftism on The Young Turks that may make you feel like you’re growing dumber by the minute
Seeing people like Cenk Uygur utterly panic is extremely telling. There is nothing that everyone at The Young Turks wants more than to see Donald Trump lose. They say they hate Joe Biden, but if Joe Biden were a young buck and about to easily beat Donald Trump, they’d be giving him positive press leading up to the election. That’s how this game works.
So now the question is, who replaces Joe Biden? Who is up to the task and who would Democrats even want to replace Biden? Obviously that question is complicated so let’s break that down.
Joe Biden Potentially Out, A Million Potentially In
Obviously, there are many, many individuals the Left would propose to run against Donald Trump this November as opposed to Joe Biden. That’s a major problem for them. There seems to be no consensus at all in any way. With Joe Biden in 2020, the Democrat base was certainly united behind Biden and against Donald Trump. That unity is gone. There will be no one candidate who will be able to unify the Democrat Party, as the infighting is now at an all time high.
Gavin Newsom’s name has been thrown out many times as the potential pick to replace Joe Biden, even before the debate went south for Biden and the Democrats. Though, a significant portion of the Democrat base is extremely concerned about running Gavin Newsom because he’s the Governor of California, a state that is already reliably blue and is not viewed well by anyone who doesn’t live in California. Here’s Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks begging the Democrat Party not to pick Gavin Newsom.
So who else is out there? Well this is where it gets difficult. As everyone knows, Michelle Obama would be a viable candidate for the Democrats. But there’s concerns that she wouldn’t know how to perform politically against a tough opponent like Donald Trump. Furthermore, she has said many times now that she has no interest in being president.
Okay, so what about Kamala Harris herself? Yeah that’s not happening. She’s about as likeable as stubbing your toe on a table in the kitchen at night when you’re trying to get water. In fact, she might have less likeability than that. Most would probably prefer to stub their toe a thousand times than see Kamala Harris as the President of the United States.
Outside of that, there’s no names like Josh Shapiro, Ro Khanna, and more. These individuals who Democrats may like, have no name recognition and would be seriously up against it.
All this is to highlight that there definitely seems to be an atmosphere right now that Joe Biden will be replaced. Whether that happens or not is yet to be seen. But the issue that the Democrats are running into is how this would even be viable. How could they possibly salvage this election against a surging Donald Trump? Maybe they can’t.
Remember, conservatives and Republicans saw this a million miles away. They’ve said for years now that it would be impossible to see Joe Biden get a second term and started wondering about who would be tapped for this moment to step in for Biden. The tock is ticking ahead of the Democrat Convention.
