Now I understand why YankGuy predicted Trump will win the Presidency.

Like your godking, you have the morals of an alley cat.

All Americans with a stake in the future of the country will vote to give President Biden four more years with the keys.

You clearly see the rapist in trump every time the guy opens his mouth. It is a good way to get himself shanked at his next address.

Wow stumbling fumbling Santa Joe is better than Kamala? Amazingly Trump is ranked 3rd worst president ever by US News, looked far more coherent in the debate. Could this be 1919 again when Wilson was incapacitated by a stroke and a caregiver took over? Someone who loves the  immigrants. Duh, duh, duh, right Mr. president.

For the love of God, Buddha, Mohammed, Brahma and democracy, Joe, please step down at the August convention and endorse someone else...Harris, Whitmer, Newsom, Beshear, Booker, Klobuchar, anyone who can rally voters and does not have vacant moments.

Meanwhile, the SCOTUS has reaffirmed its commitment to stare decisis. Or not.

I suggest that Joe has lived long enough and honed a fierce political intelligence over six decades, which will allow him to be self-aware and confront that he can no longer think on his feet when it s called for.  I think there is a growing probability that he will in a few weeks formally step down from his candidacy and name a torch-bearer, most likely Harris.  I am noticing prominent progressives, like Nick Kristof, who are suggesting he step aside.  Others are speaking with silence, never a good sign.

I really thought Biden would do better, and wonder if the no audience format put him at a disadvantage.  He seems to thrive more with a crowd, even one instructed to silence.  But generally, I think the Office has worn him out.  Would I be thrilled by a roaring comeback in the second debate?  Of course.  But I dont see it as likely.

Torpedoing the Chevron Deference?  Thats the sad story I am reading this morning.  Harder for agencies to do their jobs - continues the retarded redneck nose-thumbing at expertise generally.

Fitting that SCOTUS deep sixed Chevron just as Joe Biden, an Obama acolyte in misusing executive regulatory power, self destructs on the debate stage.
Obama s pen may be out of ink.

Chevron was based on Reagan misusing executive regulatory power. And stare decisis is a meaningless doctrine if it only applies to decisions you agree with.

Stare Decisis does not equate to eternal life.

Well, so much for one of my favored replacements for Biden:

It either matters or it does not. If you come down on the side of does not, fine.

Farewell Texas Jew boy!

We dont have no love ins in El Paso
We dont go to porno picture shows
We dont swap our wives with our neighbors
And we keep our kids away from Mexico.

And Im proud to be an asshole from El Paso
A place where sweet young virgins are deflowered.
You walk down the street knee-deep in tacos
Ta-ta-ta-tacos
And the wetbacks still get twenty cents an hour.

We dont wipe our asses on Old Glory,
God and Lone Star beer are things we trust.
We keep our women virgins till theyre married
So hosin sheep is good enough for us.

And Im proud to be an asshole from El Paso
A place where sweet young virgins are deflowered.
You walk down the street knee-deep in tacos
Ta-ta-ta-tacos
And the wetbacks still get twenty cents an hour...

Kinky was a great man. He would have made a better governor than shrub or Perry or Abbott.

Highlighting the need to test the mortality of the six injustices and anyone who was donated a million dollars or more to conservative causes over the last ten years.

Kind of late, by about two years, to start thinking about replacing Joe.
Biden has over 3,000 convention delegates and the nomination in the bag if  decides to stay in the race. Losing an election is a better exit strategy then throwing in the towel. That leaves Harris who is the only person eligible to the Biden/Harris campaign funds, which is a very big war chest. Anyone else would have to start from scratch.
What is clearly evident is that the LAWFARE strategy of the party poobahs was big mistake. Trump moved ahead in the polls and fundraising despite being convicted. Now with Biden collapsing Trump could walk right through an unlocked front door of the WHITE HOUSE.
