The President is a Vegetable, and the War Party's Trump-NATO Delusions
The Mountebank Times, #1
Special Counsel finds that the sitting President of the United States is too senile to take responsibility for his actions.
Joe Biden has been deemed mentally incompetent and cannot be held legally responsible for his mishandling of classified documents from his time as vice president in the Obama regime, a charge that his chief political rival, Donald Trump, has been indicted for. Special Counsel Robert Hurt states, “Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview with him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” He claimed that Biden could not remember when he was Barack Obama’s vice president or when his son, Beau, died, which fits in with Biden falsely claiming that Beau died while serving in the Iraq War repeatedly over the years.
Short of incapacitation or a highly unlikely convention floor revolt from delegates already pledged to Biden and loyal to the president, there is only one practical Plan B. And that’s Biden himself agreeing to hand over the baton. He is a proud man whose ego has been shaped by the experience of winning election to the Senate in his 20s and then being denied the presidency several times before finally securing it; convincing him he’s in an increasingly untenable position and needs to stand down won’t come easy.
But there is a path that enables him to leave with dignity and on his terms. It begins with letting the Democratic primary campaign run its course, ending June 4, the date the last group of states holds its primaries. Biden would finish as the undisputed victor, with far more than the 1,968 pledged delegate votes necessary to claim the nomination.
And then Biden would announce he would not accept the nomination and release his delegates to back a different nominee. He could insist he’s still fit to serve out another term but that he accepts the public’s concerns with a president who would be 86 at the end of a second term. He could remind voters that he has always said he was a bridge to a future generation of Democratic leaders. The economy is on track, he could note, and argue that he defeated Trump once and protected American democracy. He met his duty.
If even the regime-subservient media is openly wargaming how to replace Biden as the nominee, then you know that there’s real panic among those in power about putting Joe Biden up against Donald Trump for a second time.
The real question, however, is if Joe Biden cannot be legally responsible for his actions and decisions, then how can he be allowed to make decisions as President of the United States? If he cannot be held legally responsible for mishandling classified documents, then how can his orders to strike targets in, say, Syria and Iraq be considered legal and valid, even absent the fact that Congress has not declared war on either country? The 25th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution deals with exactly the situation that we find ourselves in: A President who cannot be responsible for themselves cannot be responsible for their office and should be removed from power.
In this week’s edition of “Donald Trump will do something evil he showed no inclination of doing in his first term if he is elected to a second term!”
CNN chief national security analyst (try to read that without laughing) Jim Sciutto is releasing a new book with quotes from former advisers to Donald Trump during his first term claiming that if Trump were to be elected to a second term he will seek to withdraw the United States from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, NATO.
However, per NATO, the U.S. government’s expenditures to NATO increased during Trump’s term as president. See their chart below:
If Trump were genuinely interested in withdrawing the U.S. from NATO, the trend from his time in office would more logically be that the U.S. government’s contributions to NATO would have decreased, not increased. Trump’s campaign rhetoric regarding NATO also hasn’t changed from 2016 to now, as his only complaint about NATO is that many other countries who are parties to the treaty, and thus benefit from the military defense of the United States, are not paying the amount that they’re treaty-bound to pay.
In other words, the idea that Trump even wants to remove the U.S. from NATO, rather than possibly just threatening it as a bargaining chip to get other countries to “pay their fair share,” has no basis in reality. Certainly nobody can say that this definitively will happen. For one, the president does not have unilateral authority to withdraw the U.S. from NATO, as that would have to come from Congress, and there is no political will from either party in Congress to withdraw the U.S. from NATO.
The purpose of the claim, then, can only be to try to harm Trump’s electoral prospects in the 2024 election. The Regime spent Trump’s first term trying to paint him as an agent of Vladimir Putin and the Russian government, and this is a continuation of that sad saga. Why, if Trump wants the U.S. to leave NATO then he’s being soft on Russia and must be in Putin’s pocket still! It’s a demonstrably false claim designed to appeal to alarmist nitwits and to convince them they have to vote Democrat to “save democracy.”
Oh, and the people claiming Trump will withdraw the U.S. from NATO today, were making the same claim in 2016. Just ask yourselves what these people have ever gotten right.
That said, I wish that Donald Trump actually was interested in the U.S. withdrawing from NATO. Maybe then he’d be worth voting for.
