A vote for Joe Biden is really a vote for the risky adventure of President Kamala Harris
It’s been another tough week for our president as he plows forward with his re-election bid.
It began with root canal surgery and went downhill from there.
He did the usual wandering around on stage with jerky arms before aides rushed in to point him in the right direction.
In Connecticut he ended a speech with a baffling “God Save The Queen,” and back at the White House, it was his hands doing the wandering all over Eva Longoria’s torso.
At one event he wheeled out the old “dog-faced lying pony soldier” line which had everyone scratching their heads, and after another event, he snapped at a reporter who asked him if he was the Big Guy: “Why’d you ask such a dumb question?”
He told us he was planning to “build a railroad from the Pacific all the way across the Indian Ocean” — to which one wiseguy online responded: “Who’s going to run that train? SpongeBob?”
One upside: he did not call Rep. Brendan Boyle “Boyle Bile.” That honor belongs to Sen. John Fetterman, who joined the president in Philly Saturday wearing a fetching hoodie-shorts combo.
Small mercies aside, Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse summed up the mood of his party diplomatically: “I think everybody would certainly like a younger Joe Biden.”
Yes, we Kam?
Suffice it to say, voters are none too confident that Biden will last long as president even if he makes it through another election.
The latest Harvard Harris poll shows most Americans (66%) think he is too old to run in 2024.
This leaves us with Kamala Harris, his vacuous veep.
Never has so much ridden on a vice presidential candidate with so little to offer.
GOP hopeful Nikki Haley is banking on it: “I think that we can all be very clear . . . that if you vote for Joe Biden you really are counting on a President Harris because the idea that he would make it until 86 years old is not something that I think is likely,” she said.
Haley, 51, would like nothing better than the contest to come down to two women of Indian descent, only one of whom can string together a coherent sentence.
This week Harris is attempting again to reboot her image with fresh appearances across the country to mourn the one-year anniversary of the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision.
But her inane cackling at a Juneteenth event is yet another reminder that she remains politically unviable, no matter how many puff pieces are written, or how much money pro-abortion groups spend to prop her up — and they reportedly are promising tens of millions of dollars.
Harris can talk about abortion all day long.
She can appear on MSNBC with Joy Reid every night.
It won’t help because she is too weird.
Unlike Fetterman, Harris hasn’t had a stroke.
But here is a random sampling of her official utterances, which always sound more wacky tobacky than West Wing wisdom:
- “It is time for us to do what we have been doing. And that time is every day.”
- “The significance of the passage of time, right? The significance of the passage of time. So, when you think about it, there is great significance to the passage of time.”
- “We will work together and continue to work together to address these issues, to tackle these challenges, and to work together as we continue to work.”
- “I love Venn diagrams. I do. I love Venn diagrams. The three circles.”
It’s no coincidence that Project Fix Kamala comes as Gavin Newsom is impersonating a presidential candidate on TV.
The vultures are circling.
No myth around Veep
Dems need a Plan B in the event of Biden completely losing the plot before the election.
What a golden opportunity for Republicans to shine a light on Harris’ unique talents by impeaching Biden.
She can’t be any worse a president, and she doesn’t have Biden’s armor of half a century of assiduous myth-making which has fooled a stubborn portion of the country into believing in “honest Joe,” “lunch pail Joe,” “empathetic Joe,” the “moderate” Democrat who is the “poorest man in Congress.”
There is no such mythology around Harris. What you see is what you get, a radical puppet, installed for her intersectionality.
Harris is the first woman, the first African American, and the first Asian American ever to serve as vice president.
Newsom has no shot of knocking off that trifecta.
Democrats are hoisted with their own petard. It’s Biden-Harris or bust.
‘Clean Slate’ is a clear win for criminals: DA
Suffolk County District Attorney Raymond Tierney is raising the alarm about the Clean Slate bill which passed both houses of the state Legislature late Friday.
The bill will automatically seal most criminal convictions, making it unlawful “discrimination” to inquire about someone’s record when they apply for a job, housing, insurance, and so on.
As a former prosecutor, Tierney warns that the new bill “protects criminals at the expense of victims and honest, hard-working citizens . . . It is the latest in a long line of legislation that individually is really bad but taken together is disastrous.”
Convictions for vehicular homicide, burglary, robbery, and kidnapping would all be sealed.
Tierney cites examples of a convicted embezzler applying for a bookkeeping position, or someone with convictions for elder abuse answering a job to look after your elderly relative.
You can’t run a background check to see if they are safe.
You can’t find out if an applicant to be your school bus driver has repeat drunk driving convictions.
The last chance to stop the bill is a veto from Gov. Hochul to veto it.
Fat chance of that, so expect crime to be turbocharged in New York.
