The preparation for the historic debate between former President Donald Trump and current President Joe Biden this Thursday, June 27th, continues both with the candidates themselves and the media. Particularly the media who offered Biden cover years ago for his basement campaign during COVID-19; those folks are losing sleep I imagine.
The hit list has been impressive so far, with commentators aligned with the Democrats coming out and offering barometers and measuring sticks that if Biden can’t accomplish X, then a talk needs to be had with him and his campaign to get him to drop out for the good of the Democratic Party. Former CNN talking head Chris Cuomo on Friday joined the fray of wondering if and when Joe will bite the campaign dust after the debate.
The main thing uniting these people in their concern is not that the country is being led by a mental invalid but the chances of the party winning and retaining the White House in 2024.
Also on Friday, Chris’ older sibling (don’t want to assume a gender because of bias) Andrew was on the Bill Maher show and tore into Joe over immigration and how the campaign is being run in general. As my collegue Levon Satamian worte here. Andrew Cuomo Torches Biden, Defends Trump
The former New York Governor (D) was open and honest about his thoughts on the open border and Trump’s hush money trial, among other topics.
Cuomo on Biden and the Democrats’ illegal immigration policy:
“His [Biden] immigration policy was a mistake. How you do it makes all the difference in the world. To just open the borders with no plan, you don’t know where they go, you don’t know who’s going to pay for them. Who did you even help?
The mayor [Adams] could have said no. The governor [Hochul] could have said no. New York has more of the ideological left. All are welcome. Now we’re finding out 200 thousand people later, you needed a plan; you needed to know what to do with these people.”
If the democrats do in fact let Biden run against President Trump in November, the fix is really in. I can see more the 81 million votes for him this time.
Trump needs to keep his cool and let Biden hang himself. If he does so, and Biden totally falls apart, I expect that Obama will step in (behind the scenes) and push out the next figurehead (either our clueless Gov. Moore or that sleazeball from Cally).
