Joe Biden is out. Get ready for all hell to break loose.
He’s Done
Joe Biden has decided not to run for President. He released a statement from Delaware. The statement was written on his own stationary and was released on X. He did not have a press conference and is not expected to until Tuesday and Wednesday. Kind of makes you wonder, right?
Here’s the statement:
Some things:
- The lies continue. The country is not in great shape and they had no big victories.
- Our standing around the world has weakened. Hell, there are two wars with a third brewing in the far east.
- Why is it in the “best interest of the country”? If things are going so great, wouldn’t it be the best thing for the country to stay in?
- He should have been speaking to the country on Sunday. Not through a letter posted on X.
Other things:
- His campaign was completely surprised by this.
- As of four hours before the announcement, people believed he was going to stay in.
Notice something is missing from his praise of Kamala Harris? No endorsement.
He later released another tweet on X.
My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.
So, I guess Biden’s handlers just forgot about that little tidbit. We will get into Kamala Harris running for President in a second because it seems this is going to be a little more complicated
Kamala also released a statement:
This is going to be the BS we will be hearing for the next three months. Biden was not a good President, he is not a nice guy, he is not running the country and he’s senile. Kamala Harris is Brutus waiting to knife Caesar in the groin without being caught.
Trump’s Response
Speaking of Brutus…
The Obamas also released a statement:
“Joe Biden has been one of America’s most consequential presidents, as well as a dear friend and partner to me. Today, we’ve also been reminded — again — that he’s a patriot of the highest order.
“Sixteen years ago, when I began my search for a vice president, I knew about Joe’s remarkable career in public service. But what I came to admire even more was his character — his deep empathy and hard-earned resilience; his fundamental decency and belief that everyone counts.
“Since taking office, President Biden has displayed that character again and again. He helped end the pandemic, created millions of jobs, lowered the cost of prescription drugs, passed the first major piece of gun safety legislation in 30 years, made the biggest investment to address climate change in history, and fought to ensure the rights of working people to organize for fair wages and benefits. Internationally, he restored America’s standing in the world, revitalized NATO, and mobilized the world to stand up against Russian aggression in Ukraine. More than that, President Biden pointed us away from the four years of chaos, falsehood, and division that had characterized Donald Trump’s administration.
A lot of bullshit.
“For him to look at the political landscape and decide that he should pass the torch to a new nominee is surely one of the toughest in his life. But I know he wouldn’t make this decision unless he believed it was right for America. It’s a testament to Joe Biden’s love of country — and a historic example of a genuine public servant once again putting the interests of the American people ahead of his own that future generations of leaders will do well to follow.
“We will be navigating uncharted waters in the days ahead. But I have extraordinary confidence that the leaders of our party will be able to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges. I believe that Joe Biden’s vision of a generous, prosperous, and united America that provides opportunity for everyone will be on full display at the Democratic Convention in August.
“And I expect that every single one of us are prepared to carry that message of hope and progress forward into November and beyond. For now, Michelle and I just want to express our love and gratitude to Joe and Jill for leading us so ably and courageously during these perilous times — and for their commitment to the ideals of freedom and equality that this country was founded on.”
Notice something is missing? His support for Kamala Harris. In fact, it sounds like he is expecting an open convention.
I never want to hear anything from the Democrats and media about Democracy being under threat again. We’ll get more into that later.
Clinton’s Statement
According to the New York Times:
Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton posted a statement on social media on Sunday afternoon endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris to take President Biden’s place as the party’s nominee for November.
“We are honored to join the President in endorsing Vice President Harris and will do whatever we can to support her,” they wrote in the statement, which was posted within 90 minutes of Mr. Biden announcing that he would leave the race and back Ms. Harris as his replacement in the race against former President Donald J. Trump.
“We’ve lived through many ups and downs,” the Clintons said, “but nothing has made us more worried for our country than the threat posed by a second Trump term.”
The statement concluded, “Now is the time to support Kamala Harris and fight with everything we’ve got to elect her. America’s future depends on it.”
Well, at least we know Hilary is not running again. They decided to support Kamala. Or is she? The plot thickens.

What’s the Score?
Who supports Kamala Harris for President? Let’s take a look:
Yea!
- The Bidens
- The Clintons
- The Squad
- Ted Lui
- Adam Schiff
- James Clyburn
- The View
- Elizabeth Warren
- Amy Klobuchar
Nay!
- The Obamas
- Hakeem Jeffries
- Nancy Pelosi
- Chuck Schumer
- Bernie Sanders
This will change. More people will make their opinions known as the week passes.
Dumbass of the Day
Yeah, white people made Joe Biden senile. These guys are going to go insane over the next few days until the Democrats come up with some narrative.
Time for Some Analysis
I have some thoughts:
- The Democratic party used Joe Biden because people liked him and then shivved him in the back when everyone figured out what was going on.
- There was some deal made with Biden. I’m sure he just made a ton of money, got his beautiful Presidential library and will have an airport named after him. Money and prestige are all that prideful piece of shit is interested in.
- Biden will speak this week because he must to maintain the presidency for the next six months, but don’t expect two words from him after that.
- Democrats and the media will have to keep saying how great Biden was because they want a candidate that will do exactly what he did. Someone to control. Trump is going to run on Biden’s policies, not his senility. Every other Democrat is going to will do exactly what Biden did. This is why I don’t think Republicans should focus on his incompetence.
- Who will be the next Democratic candidate? Who knows.
- Kamala has to be in the lead. The campaign money cannot be legally transferred. Court cases will happen, but I do not think those cases can come fast enough. She was also part of the ticket that won the primary.
- Hilary? Doubt it. She hasn’t developed a personality since 2016.
- Bernie? He was popular in 2020. I could see him jumping in if the cards are laid correctly.
- AOC? She’s stupid and crazy. I can see her throwing her hat in the ring.
- Gavin Newsom or Gretchen Whitmore? No. Those two are not going to want to get in the middle of this mess especially since their policies mimic Biden’s policies. Not to mention, their states are a mess.
- Josh Shapiro. Doubt it. He’s a Jewish, moderate democrat. The Left would eat him alive.
- Finally, what about Michelle Obama? She is the most viable person, but I doubt it. She hates politics and is living a pretty good life now. It just depends who wears the pants in the Obama household.
- All this depends if the Dems are going to have an open convention.
- What about Hunter?
- He will be pardoned by his father. Joe can’t rely on Dems winning the Presidency.
- Hunter’s corruption will not be forgotten. It is the same corruption that every other Dem has been embracing.
