My take-away from the debates are that many, if not most, Democrats got the reality check. If you don't watch Fox or other right sites as well as the MSM, you probably were not aware of Bidens mental frailties. Or, bought the line that those videos were taken out of context or AI enhanced.
I suspect you guys will discuss in this week's no BS zone, but where would you and Bernie place the odds that Biden is replaced? Besides getting Biden to cooperate, which would be done by convincing his wife that she should stop pimping out her demented husband so she can live in the White House, there is the Kamala Harris problem.
If Biden steps down, KH is the heir apparent, is she not? And IF she is not, why not? We were assured for the past four years that she is ready to step in immediately to assume the presidency.
The problem is she has demonstrated over and over again that she is neither competent nor articulate, and her popularity with voters is worse than Biden's even in his diminished state. In other words, it's not at all clear that she could beat Donald Trump.
If the Democrats replace her on the ticket, they will a) offend the Left wing of their party by removing a "woman of color" - which is of course why she got the VP job in the first place, and b) be admitting that they made a mistake making her Biden's VP in the first place, putting identity politics over competence.
I don't know how you can replace Harris from the ticket. If she was good enough for 1st in line, she would have to be the candidate. I guess anything is possible and who knows where this is going. Right now the Dem leadership is trying to come up with a path to replace Biden as I am sure it's going to happen.
Second, I would not underestimate Harris if she was to take over the second debate. They'll have her prepared and all they have to do is get Trump Bullsh###ng again.
Now I could be wrong on both of these points as I was wrong once before I believe it occurred in October of 1989. LOL.
Harris was one of the worst primary candidates ever. She almost immediately dropped out after polling 3rd or 4th in her home state, the voters who knew her best. Her word salad appearances have been horrendous. And the #1 issue is now the border, her failure on that issue totally disqualifies her. She slept her way to political recognition in CA, only THE VIEW and their ilk are impressed by her.
What do you think would happen to the Democrat leadership if Biden pulled out and they didn't go with Kamala? Only time will tell. If I led the Democrat party, I would push Biden out and pick someone other than Harris and take the heat which there would be plenty of throwing a woman of color under the bus. Look at the polls and see how many are still standing behind Biden even after the debate.
The rumor inside DC is if they need to replace Biden( and they certainly do if Biden will agree to exit gracefully) is that they will assuage Kamala with a promise of huge financial support for her candidacy for governor. of CA ( which she might well lose anyway) . Also in a nod to their usual identity politics that there will be a woman on their ticket. The problem is that their bench is pitiful, the best are probably the governors like Moore and Shapiro who have no national recognition at all. Most if not all of them centrists at the National level have been pushed out of the party. Look at what happened to Manchin and Gabbard, supposedly both of whom No Labels attempted to recruit. Unless Trump defeats himself ( of which he is capable) I believe that he will be the next President. As you know, the insane lawfare attack on him has totally backfired because it was blatantly political in Bragg’s NYC case and almost definitely that is the only one that will get to a jury before November 5th. After the Supreme’s decision, that verdict might even need to be vacated.

As anyone who seriously watched the unedited videos know, they were not “cheap fakes” taken out of context.
Stirewalt? Someone still pays him?
You are full of passionate partisan nincompoopery. LOL & QED
Whatever you say, Liz.
I realize that he remains unpopular among individuals more interested in humping Trump's leg than the welfare of our nation.

This will indeed be the topic of this week's No BS Zone. And I'll incorporate these questions into the discussion.
