My latest in PJ Media:
Old Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are bad enough, but according to Dick Morris, a former Clinton adviser, it’s going to get worse: Morris thinks 2024 is going to feature a showdown between Hillary Clinton and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-Mean Girls) for the 2024 Democratic presidential nomination. Grab the popcorn, and the Xanax.
As everyone knows, the incumbents are damaged goods. Nobody likes Old Joe, who will be about 120 years old if he even makes it to 2024, and Kamala Harris has failed spectacularly at one of the easiest jobs on the planet. Meanwhile, Hillary has been increasingly obvious lately in positioning herself for 2024, while the winsome Ocasio-Cortez turns the required age of 35 on Oct. 13, 2024.
Morris sees Hillary’s recent attacks on AOC and the Squad as an indication that a showdown is coming between the two for the Democratic presidential nomination. He explained, “I’ve always said that the way you could tell if Hillary is running again is check whether she has a pulse or not — and if she does, most likely she’s running.” She sat out a return bout against Trump in 2020, and now she’s tanned, rested, and ready. “But lately, there have been very significant signs that indicate that she is, in fact, planning to run. She gave an interview earlier this week with MSNBC where she talked about, quote, ‘We have to think clearly and be clear-eyed about what it will take to win the House and the Senate.’ And she then proceeded to basically blame [Rep. Ocasio-Cortez] and the progressives for policies that she said could endanger the Democratic majorities.”
Indeed. Hillary recently told MSNBC, “I think that it is a time for some careful thinking about what wins elections, and not just in deep blue districts where a Democrat and a liberal Democrat or so-called progressive Democrat is going to win. We’ve got to be very clear-eyed about what it’s going to take to hold the House and the Senate in 2022.” This would require moving away from the far Left: “But at the end of the day, nothing is going to get done if you don’t have a Democratic majority in the House, in the Senate, and our majority comes from people who win in much more difficult districts and our majority in the Senate comes from people who can win in not just blue states and hold those wins … but can win in more purpleish states.”
Morris saw these comments as premature and revealing. “It’s kind of hard to see candidates doing the blame game for an election that hasn’t happened yet,” he remarked. He noted that it was AOC who fired back: “Then, interestingly, the reply came from AOC, who said we need to enact the … Build Back Better program, and then unless we do so, we’re going to lose the midterm elections.”
There is more. Read the rest here.

If true, old Chuckie Schumer will be AOC’s #1 contributor.

I just spent some minutes trying to force my brain to imagine AOC sitting in the oval office as president and the horror was too great to visualize such a thing. Maybe such a thing might be worth considering though in order to frighten China and Russia, after all if America can put such a simpleton in the white house what else are they capable of?
Keith O says
Killary reminds me of the villain in one of those 80s B grade horror movies, no matter what happens, she just keeps coming back, nastier, more vindictive and harder to get rid than in the previous instalment.
Having said that, if either of them get in as POTUS then the country is doomed.

Dinosaur vs. Ditz: Hillary vs. AOC in 2024?
………………
All respect to Robert Spencer, but I have to say that AOC is *far* worse than a ditz. She’s really quite vicious.
Infidel says
If that is the 2024 primary, Trump or whoever the GOP candidate is will win in a landslide

Shrillary Shroooooooo, Lizzie Big-Chief-Pimple-on-her-Tongue Warren, and Alejandra Cara de Pato are the best arguments ever for repealing the 19th Amendment.

Joe Biden and Barack Obama are pretty damn bad, but I’ve never said that as a result men should not be able to vote. 🙂

Hillary may not make it to 2024. She looks awful and seems to be having bad coughing fits in recent interviews. That would leave Occasional Cortex, a certifiable ignoramus and perpetual teenaged narcissist. The only thing worthwhile about her nomination would be the vast body of comic relief her campaign speeches would contribute to the entertainment world. The only reason she wouldn’t be elected President is because we can’t date her. Yeah, that’s presidential material right there. America has become a laughingstock under the incompetent Biden/Harris regime. A loud mouthed, horse faced dimwit mentally teenaged girl would finish off the nation.
