If I had to place a bet, I’d wager that President Joe Biden is in until the end. It may be his literal end, but the end, nonetheless. I’ve been wrong at least a couple times in my life, so I’m not betting my life on this prediction, but hear me out.
In my last column in August of 2020, entitled “Joe Biden Requires Being Led by the Hand-Literally,” I suggested that he was feeble, and declining physically and mentally. I warned that, “He is being put in a position by his handlers, his family, and his party that will only end in embarrassment.” Not to brag, but did I call it or what?
I know you’re all wondering, “Where have you been since 2020?” That’s a column for another day.
Based on the last four years, recent observations, and life’s experience, I’ll crawl out on a limb and suggest that Joe Biden will be the Democrat presidential nominee barring any emergency that would render him even more incapacitated. I don’t know how you could be more incapacitated, but at this point, we shouldn’t let the Left compete with itself in a game of “Hold my beer”.
The reasons are simple: No. 1 Joe Biden is delusional due to a serious medical condition. He simply doesn’t have the capacity to self-reflect. No. 2 There is no one in his inner circle willing to take away his keys. No. 3 There are currently no public calls or actions from Democrat kingpins to send the Big Guy to the nursing home.
No. 1: IYKYK. Several medical doctor friends as well as doctors on television have stated that Joe Biden has Parkinson’s Disease. Like them, I am also convinced that he suffers from the disease. My father had it and Joe shuffles, talks, turns, whispers, moves, stumbles, acts, forgets, and most important, denies just like my father did.
Not all Parkinson’s patients suffer with uncontrollable tremors. Some develop a stiff gait and serious cognitive decline from Lewey Body Dementia which often associates itself with Parkinson’s. To be clear, I am not a medical expert, but it certainly appears to be Parkinson’s. I will also predict that when this is over, we will someday learn the truth about how his condition has been both known and hidden for several years now.
He is not going anywhere voluntarily because no one will EVER convince him that he is incapable or incompetent. He lives in a bubble surrounded by enablers.
No. 2: If one takes the Occam’s Razor approach and assumes that it is the least complicated of scenarios, one must conclude that his family and those closest to him (Jill and Hunter) are not willing to give up power. If you believe that he is the puppet of a much more complicated Deep State operation, one must consider the fact that they have known about his condition for years and have ostensibly done nothing to avoid the situation we are in today.
If we believe that Deep State operatives control every aspect of the presidency, then they are either incompetent, or their plan is going exactly according to schedule which would also prove the former. The simplest explanation is that Jill and Hunter enjoy all the benefits of having Joe as President and Joe is so deluded that he doesn’t even know how deluded he really is. If you’ve ever taken the keys away from Grandpa, you know EXACTLY how this works. Joe thinks he can drive and Jill and Hunter at this point have given no indication that they’re willing to take away the keys.
No. 3: As of today, there have been whispers and rumors about party leaders like Obama, Schumer, and Pelosi working to oust Old Joe, but they haven’t been very public about their motives. The classic Catch 22 is that they have known all along about his deficiencies. Now the lie has metastasized itself into a cancer of unimaginable proportion. They have lied their way into being forced to support an inept, incapable, feeble old man, or find a replacement who is almost destined to lose in a process that will be completely disastrous. At this juncture in time, it doesn’t appear that anyone among Democrats with any serious stature is willing to risk their position to start an unwinnable fight.
All of this leads me back to my original premise. Joe Biden will be the Democratic nominee barring any unpredictable significant medical emergency or death. I’m 63.82% sure.
