New in PJ Media:
Are the leaders of the Democrat Party in their right mind? Probably not, given that they front for an organization that is dedicated to socialist authoritarianism and has given us open borders, skyrocketing inflation, strange objects flying all over the country, and all the rest of the Biden regime’s fetid legacy, but a headline in Politico Thursday really calls into question whether they’re even competent and relatively functional human beings: “Senior Democrats’ Private Take on Biden: He’s Too Old.” “Private take”? Do these Dem honchos actually think that this is a secret? Is this really something they think is just being whispered in private rooms? As Old Joe himself would say, “Come on, man!”
“High-level Democrats,” the article tells us, “are rallying to President Biden’s reelection, not because they think it’s in the best interest of the country to have an 82-year-old start a second term but because they fear the potential alternative: the nomination of Kamala Harris and election of Donald Trump.” Since when did high-level Democrats have any concern for the best interest of the country? A more accurate lead paragraph would have said that these high-powered Dems are backing Biden not because they think his dumpster fire regime offers much to run on in 2024, but because they’re afraid that the Cackler, Kamala Harris, would fare even worse in an election against Donald Trump.
It’s unclear why they’re worried. Gerrymandering, mail-in ballots, and ballot harvesting will likely pull off all manner of new upsets for them in 2024, and could even get their candidate, however incompetent or corrupt or both, into the White House, but nonetheless, the Democrat kingmakers and powerbrokers are worried. Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.) explained: “Nobody wants to be the one to do something that would undermine the chances of a Democratic victory in 2024. Yet in quiet rooms the conversation is just the opposite — we could be at a higher risk if this path is cleared.”
Phillips, according to Politico, was “one of the few lawmakers last year to say his party should turn to a new generation in the next presidential race.” Yet “since the Democrats’ unexpectedly strong midterm performance, scarcely few have followed suit, while every potential Biden successor has fallen in line behind his yet-to-be-announced candidacy.” Now, why might that be? What does it say about America that its dominant majority party is so reluctant to nominate a younger candidate? Why won’t the old folks get out of the way?
There is more. Read the rest here.

“Too old, too old, he’s too old
To cut the mustard anymore.
Well, when I was young I had a lotta pep
I could get around I didn’t need no help
But since I’m old and a gettin’ gray
The people all look at me and say.
Well, when I was young I had an automobile
Scoot myself right under the wheel
I had to fight the gals off with a stick
But now they say he makes me sick.
“Too Old to Cut the Mustard.”
There is more to the song, but I think the second part posted here fits the feelings of many…the last line, especially.

Having Cackle Harris in the number two position (she has been in many various positions climbing the ladder to her present one ,including the missionary) is the only reason Mumbles Biden has not been removed by his puppet masters.
somehistory says
In my opinion, they are using harris to keep biden in power, as they are fully aware of just how much people don’t want her in the wh, pretending to be president.
They chose her so fewer objections would be made about him…for fear of her taking the top spot.

And I think that’s the reason Obama picked mumbles as vp. No one could imagine that bumbling moron as president. I gave Barry some protection.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
According to Dick Morris, if Mike Obama decides that she’d deign to be POTUS, then Biden’s plan for a 2024 run are cooked. Probably as cooked as the school lunches that Mike used to try and force on schoolkids during his husband’s presidency

It has been laughable to hear the demented Joe Biden saying that he is intending to run again for the Presidency. He is already way past his use by date for any type of job. In Australia, the commentators that I hear mention the Governor of California, I think it is Newsome (not sure if that is correct) as the likely Democrat contender for President. Is that a likely scenario?
Wellington says
tim gallagher: A very likely scenario. Gavin Newsom is in his mid-fifties and at least has his mind but it is a mind filled with terrible ideas. He has helped to horribly diminish the once great state of California and he very much intends to inflict his many idiocies upon the nation at large.
Prediction: Newsom will likely be the Democratic nominee in 2024 even though he continues to deny he is running (N.B., best not to believe him). He is a younger Biden without cognitive impairment but still a fool through and through. Should this joker become the next POTUS, America will sink even further into a geopolitical abyss from which extrapolation becomes more and more unlikely.
tim gallagher says
Thanks for the information, Wellington. The commentators that I see on Sky News seem to be just as impressed with Newsom as you are. They have said that he has wrecked California in many ways and will likely end up being the Democrats’ choice to run for the Presidency. Out here in Australia, the foolish Australians have voted in a Labor government full of clowns who are sure to do plenty of things that will damage this country as well in the next couple of years. Of course, among the Liberal party, our conservative party, there are also many fairly woke types, which I guess would be the equivalent of your RINO type politicians. It is sad and dangerous (for the democratic countries of the world) seeing the leadership that is now dragging the USA down so much
Wellington says
So tragic and utterly useless, tg, what is happening in one Western nation after another. Never has the West had a greater collection of clowns and jokers in charge than now. From Australia to America, from the UK to Canada, and on and on, the West is being betrayed by its own leadership, whether in politics, education, the media, Big Tech, et al. What a waste of a great civilization, actually the greatest of all time. And the Islamic world is licking its chops (I take it lamb chops and not pork chops) as it watches the West descending from within. The Age of Nonsense remains in full swing.
tim gallagher says
I am, of course, in complete agreement with you, Wellington, that western civilisation has been, by far, the greatest in human history. There seem to be a lot of people in our western societies who have lost confidence and are endlessly in an apologetic mode, crawling around on their bellies and making groveling apologies for the supposed crimes of our western nations. I keep hoping that things will turn around and people in our western countries will stop beating up on themselves. The positives that western civilisation has produced far outweigh the negatives as far as I am concerned. We do seem to be at a tipping point and there seems to be a definite decline going on. As for islam, it is a load of primitive, totally barbaric garbage and belongs in history’s dustbin.
