National Review, Years Late (As Usual): Gee, There Seems to Be Something Wrong With Biden's Brain
Alternate title: Biden Voters Posting Their L's Online.
Jim Geraghty, Dan McLaughlin, and Andy McCarthy -- all fire-breathing liberal bourgeoisie NeverTrumpers who supported Biden for president (even if they resort to the usual NeverTrumper claim that It's not binary and that relentlessly attacking one candidate -- Trump -- is not de facto support of the only other real candidate) -- suddenly realize: Hey, there's something wrong with Biden's brain. We should look into this further!!!
Correction: A commenter says that Andy McCarthy supported Trump in 2020, and he's right. But Andy McCarthy has also vouched for just about every Deep State schemer involved in coup attempts against Trump, too. Jeff Weimar says that Geraghty has "questioned" Biden's cognitive ability before. Well, I don't remember that, and National Review and Geraghty are sure promoting this article as a major breaking story, so that previous "questioning" must not have been particularly strong. Certainly there were no claims that he was unfit to be president. Certainly this is not being written as a "as I've previously reported" piece. This is being written up as important new information that must be added toe the caclulus. Some of us added this old, old information into the calculus in 2020, but I guess only less-intelligent, disreputable analysts can successfully diagnose situations early. The very smart, reputable analysts do so too late to guide important decisions
The National Review Brain Trust is firing on all one cylinders, as usual. Make sure you donate in their next Web-A-Thon! It's not fair to make FaceBook and Google pay for everything!
@AndrewCMcCarthy Something Is Wrong with the President - @jimgeraghty
examines the interview against other things we know. Not good ...
@baseballcrank In which @jimgeraghty raises the elephant in the room regarding the oldest man ever to hold the job: Something Is Wrong with the PresidentBoy, it sure is lucky that you're only discovering this now. Had you achieved this obvious realization in, say, April of 2020, you might have been compelled to (reluctantly) support Donald Trump's reelection. Sometimes ignorance is tactical. But now the truth can be told. Years late. National Review, standing athwart history yelling "We'll acknowledge reality five years from now."
Twitchy has more of this late-breaking news, which is only late-breaking if you're a Professional Thinkfluencer at the corporate toy blog National Review.
Hey Jim-- Biden's advanced dementia has been clear for years. His sundowning, his outbursts of anger when he can't remember a name or basic fact, his frequent confabulation of events that simply never happened -- all have been documented for years. We noticed. Why didn't the Biden-boosting Brain Trust at National Review? You're claiming there's something wrong with Biden's brain. But perhaps there's equally something wrong with yours. And I do mean that. It is impossible not to notice that NeverTrump suffered what a psychiatrist would call a nervous breakdown or even a psychotic break in the fall of 2016. Which they're still coping with. Still inventing new fictions to glue together their shattered reality. For years you denied the obvious. Now, when Biden -- a man who's been pushing to withdraw from Afghanistan since 2009 -- fails to live up to your Fantasy Image of him as a Neocon Champion, you claim he's the one with the mental problem. All right, Jim. All right. The first step in recovery is admitting you have a problem.
Jim Geraghty
@jimgeraghty Biden is barely appearing in public, not saying much of anything when he does, not answering any questions outside of his lone scheduled interview, and sounding angry and indignant when he did face questions from Stephanopoulos. Biden began the interview by insisting that the intelligence community had given him unclear answers about the state of the Afghan military and government, contradicting what he said about the intelligence on July 8. Then during the Stephanopoulos interview, Biden insisted that he himself had predicted that the Afghan government would collapse by the end of the year: "Well, by the end of the year, I said that’s that was -- that was a real possibility." The president either does not remember what he said on July 8, or he is simply trying to gaslight everyone into believing that he did warn of the Afghan government collapsing - the opposite of what he actually said. "That was four days ago, five days ago!" Biden interjected. It was two days ago, but that’s not really what is important; what is spectacularly odd is that Biden is reacting as if he thinks Stephanopolous was bringing up irrelevant ancient history. Biden is now insisting that the chaos of a Taliban takeover was inevitable, even though he stood before the country on July 8 and specifically assured the country that the Taliban takeover was not inevitable. Biden also insisted that, contrary to published reports, his military advisers did not recommend keeping 2,500 troops in the country. "No one said that to me, that I can recall." There are meeting notes that can be declassified. We can see if Biden’s advisors really did urge him to keep 2,500 troops there, or if they are lying. Or if Biden genuinely does not remember what was said and recommended to him in a meeting months ago. The president turns 79 in November. He last released a summary of his health condition in December 2019. In May, a White House spokesman said Biden had not had a medical checkup or taken a physical this year, but that he would by the end of the year. Back on July 26, John Ellis astutely analyzed how it was acceptable to acknowledge Biden's age and mental condition if you used certain gentle euphemisms: "He's lost a step or two." "He's lost something off his fastball." Something is wrong with President Biden, and we are all being asked to pretend to not notice.
National Review Yesterday's news, Tomorrow.
Now all the Beta Orbiters and Herd-Beasts who can only repeat what their Thought-Givers tell them to repeat will suddenly start talking up Biden's dementia. They've been given Permission to discuss this now by the Respectable Idiots.

They have a very good excuse, Ace. They put most of their effort into sending former subscribers - the people they chased off by cucking out and tucking under and openly playing for the other team - twice-weekly spam. Their spam is as voluminous as it is frequent, full of sound and fury. Maintaining the constant operation to try to entice their former subscribers back is likely consuming most of their effort and time, leaving very little for the cutting-edge and forward-looking commentary they claim to offer...

Mentioned a few times that my wife and I had dinner and drinks with Gheraghty and his wife many years back. We had a budding friendship and mutual respect that would have taken hold if we had run in the same circles.
Indeed, what is wrong with HIS brain that he is just now seeing this. Biden wandering off the stage during the 2020 campaign wasn't enough of a clue?

I've figured that they'll want him gone sooner. Once they realize that they can't hold on until 2023, they'll want to ditch him as quickly as possible to give Harris as much of a full term as possible.

In wartime, combined U.S. and South Korean forces would be led by the head of United States Forces Korea, currently Gen. Paul LaCamera. The administration of South Korean President Moon Jae-in has looked to accelerate the process of gaining full control over its military.
"We need not only the importance of the ROK-U.S. alliance, but also an attitude of self-defense that our country will protect itself," Song wrote. The Republic of Korea is the official name of South Korea.

They have trouble containing anger, and if you bring up something they do not like they consider it an attack. I am sure george stepinshit was not attacking. I think the best way I can explain it is that they are aware of their own cognitive decline, and do not want to be reminded. They are trying to train all interlocutors to never bring up negative subjects by snapping at them.
It is not so much that they can not control anger, but that they use anger as a fallback response to avoid what is happening to their brains.

The 25th is trickier than most people assume. They need 2/3s majorities in both houses of Congress to invoke it if Biden tries to fight it, and Jill will ensure that happens. While a few GOP squishes might go along "for the good of the country" I can't see getting 16 without McConnell's support, and I doubt that will happen without concessions.

I think the never trumpers thought that putting a senile sociopath in the WH would not turn out bad because they were relying on the deep state to control the government. It is a tacit admission that the deep state has all the power - they think that is a good thing. Trump worked against the deep state and they knew he would make problems for them. They identify with the deep state because it is a class thing.
This is also dunning krueger. They do not know what they don't know. Organizations have executives and leaders for a reason. The guy at the top may be irrelevant most of the time, but he is the guy who is responsible and that means something.

Suspect in video says that "only Joe Biden" can detonate the apparent explosive by shooting out his window. Suspect has made multiple threats to blow up the explosive if he is shot at.
"If you shoot me, 2 and a half blocks are going with me. Then you're talking about a revolution. The revolution is on. It's today."
Floyd claims in his livestream that if he is shot at, the other explosives he claims to have placed, will also go off.
"When you shoot these windows out the revolution is gonna be on even harder! There's gonna be four more going off across this town!"

I think he was trying the Obama trick where they would say that it was too early to comment on something and then wait a little while and then say that it was old news. Except that Biden's brain is gone so it just sounded stupid.

They thought that there would be a blue wave in 2020, thanks to shitty polling. A Dem House with a stronger majority and a Dem Senate would mean that at worse they'd keep Trump neutralized for another four years, and at best Biden would be a rubber stamp to whatever Pelosi and Schumer wanted. Instead they panicked when they saw Trump's yuge, glorious coattails and stuffed the ballot boxes for Biden in order to salvage some victory. The problem now is that they are too weak in Congress to push through whatever they want, and the Biden admin is a shitshow.

Never Trump idiots are 100% idiots, but I'm not sure what Joe Biden is to them other than icing on a mass hysteria cake.
There. Were. Other. Choices.
One or two were almost as bad as Joe. Kamala. Cory Booker.
That woo-woo New Age guru would have been better than any of those three.
I did not LIKE any of the others, but Gabbard or the UBI fellow were bad but they weren't utterly incompetent.
Klobucher (?) might have been Jr. League but again, not completely inept.

This is certainly true. Here's the thing, though: this is precisely what has happened. The president is an incompetent puppet and the invisible and unaccountable Deep State, fronted by their politburo is in charge and running everything. What they expected is exactly what they got.
Counter to their expectations, however, it turns out that it isn't working well. That's what they're pissed about - that it isn't working the way they were sure it would.

We tried to bring secular liberal western society to Afghanistan, and there's an argument to be made that we succeeded.

IMHO, this is thinking like we still have free and fair elections. They're waaaay past giving a shit about optics. That gives me the strong impression they know the fix is in. Forever. Look at everything they've done and are doing. They have zero qualms about demonizing half the country for any number of things. Sure, white people are terrorists, but they're also targeting the black community for vaccinations. They're purposely destroying the country and the world in broad daylight, and laughing. Their endgame is a smoldering foundation. The only way I see Biden leaving is if he simply cannot babble any longer (dementia patients do get to that point). I hope I'm wrong, not that it would make a difference in the scheme of things. But I don't think bleeding is a concern for them at all.

Yes, but congress was not going to prevent this disaster. I agree with you, but my point was aside from the legislation, they thought biden would do no harm because the presidency is immaterial with all those smart people around.

One thing to remember is that the media is under tight control. If a news outlet publishes something, it's with approval from at least one Party faction. They don't sneeze without permission.

And by the way Fox News, isn't this what we're all pulling for?

"ultimately"
Is he just going to pretend that getting people out within the next few weeks will erase the clusterf#ck that has already occured?
There is no "ultimately" that can get tall of thos eweapons back, that can unmarry/unmolest the women and girls who have been rounded up raped and enslaved, that can unkill the Afghanis who heloed us who have been hunted down and killed, and so on.
Getting Americans home eventually is the bare minimum. Also: importing hordes of unvetted Afghans and dumping them in a flyover state will only compund the clusterf, not coun as a 'win.'

To be fair, the press softball every single democrat. I mean, how many hard questions did JEF get? And if he got one, he'd read the press the riot act. Then they'd keep coming back like a battered girlfriend. Biden has always been an egotistical idiot and a blowhard. Probably what made it even harder to tell when he started his cognitive decline. I've said before, I'm positive they're sedating him - especially when travelling. I've seen that vacant shuffle too many times, and it mostly goes away when he's up to speak. The typical dementia meds only work for so long. They enhance mood for a while, then start to have the opposite effect. I think these vacays are to adjust his internal clock and try new meds.

Agrees. Maybe previous presidents other than Trump could pump the brakes a teeny bit on the Deep State and this is what results when one cannot. The Deep State is utterly incompetent, too, and bears most of the responsibility for the disastrous State of affairs. No need for 16D Chess theories about Afghanistan. This is what the MIC/Intelligence Community thought would work. Their severe retardation should offer some comfort to us though, no?

Biden may have always been lousy dealing with the press. But how could anyone really know? How many press conferences and long interviews did he have while first running for Senate, in subsequent election campaigns, while a Senator, and while Vice President? In his Dem nominations runs pre-2020, he turned-off caucus attendees and primary voters at hypersonic speed. COVID was a godsend to Biden's handlers, providing their prayed-for excuse to keep Joe away from voters and the press.

Unless he dies, they have to use the 25th amendment. As pointed out above, that requires 2/3rds of both houses.
Assuming they can get that, then Harris becomes President and there is no VP. And there is no way to confirm a new VP without Republican's agreeing because of the the 50/50 Senate with no tie breaker.
Same problem if Harris resigns so they can install a new VP. They can't someone they want because of the 50/50 tie without a tie breaker.
Here is a likely scenario. Harris resigns, there is no replacement. Biden commits Arkancide, Pelosi becomes President.

I still think that Pelosi would rather remain as Speaker. More power there than trying to wrangle the Fed bureaucracy with a weak Congress (and House Dems are likely to face a leadership fight if she leaves).
More likely IMHO is a compromise VP. Probably a "distinguished" elder statesman who won't be seen as a threat, or a red state Dem senator.

Yup. There is no "back" for them to come to anyway. They were never "here." Their actions over the past four yeara didn't jst piss me off it proved to me that they've been grifters all along.

You know, I was thinking: what WOULD it take for us to trust these fuckers?
The thing about betrayal or loss of trust whether it be in relationships with women or with other people over matters political (is there actually any difference? Still people) is that broken trust can never be completely repaired. If NRO came out, said everything. Election stolen, Dems fixed everything, Trump greatest and most maligned. Would we actually believe them? I wouldn't.
Trust is funny that way.

I stand by every word of that piece (including, as relevant this week, my discussion of Biden's terrible record on foreign policy). Trump's conduct from November through January only underlined why he was unfit to hold the office.

Hey baseballcuck, here's a nickel's worth of free advice: when you're in a hole, your first action should be to stop digging.
Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at August 19, 2021 12:55 PM (3p5uk)
What actions? Telling the truth that the election was filed with fraud?
Baseball cuck apparently wants Trump to lie just to make him feel better. Something similar was requested of Jesus- he also demurred.

There you go spreading that Malaise again. If only you believed that record unemployment AND inflation AND foreign policy disasters were a good thing, everything would have been fine.
I was in college in the turn between Carter and Reagan and took an Econ course that proved, PROVED that it was impossible to have inflation and unemployment at the same time. Never believed a media economic statement after that again.

That's riskier for the Dems. GOP picks up either the Senate or the House and suddenly it becomes a lot more difficult to get someone through.

Disagree. They deserve every bit of scorn they receive. They denied what was in front of their face because they hated Trump.
Are they experiencing buyer's remorse or just looking to save face by jumping ship?
Either way, they've shown they are useless when it comes to supporting an America-first, conservative president. And they'll show this out in 2024 when they're explaining to you why Trump was bad but Desantis is worse.

I agree. Political expediency aside, Kamala is *very* controllable. She entertains no inherent substance, intellectually or experientially, that would provide her with enough self-confidence to make firm, assertive judgments or decisions. The Puppeteers would have no problem controlling her every move.

I still think that Pelosi would rather remain as Speaker. More power there than trying to wrangle the Fed bureaucracy with a weak Congress (and House Dems are likely to face a leadership fight if she leaves).
More likely IMHO is a compromise VP. Probably a "distinguished" elder statesman who won't be seen as a threat, or a red state Dem senator.

He's also less than a year away from not being able to comprehend time. They could literally tell him he's been in office for 4-8 years, and "X" won the election. Time to write your memoirs, Mr. President. And colleges are dying to have you speak for $500k/pop. My mother in the mid stages had no idea who was POTUS, the last one she remembered was Barky. No idea what year it was, much less month or day. Otherwise, he's going to get belligerent, and will need to be removed in other ways. Like falling down the stairs (a serious fall is also in the cards for him).

Hayes lost, but not by enough and a mess of Reconstruction states were contested. The GOP negotiated the end of military enforcement of Reconstruction for the votes. This created the Solid South that persisted to the 1970s and the disenfrachisement of Southern blacks.

Stan definitely knows his people.
But Praise Jesus, He knows His people too.
The fact that Stan has already lost to Almighty God makes what's going on in the world a pittance;
though the images of evil are terrifying, and contemplating what's going to happen in the coming days and weeks can drive you almost crazy, especially in light of the blatant betrayals on an hourly basis, there is still a Remnant among the spirit of evil in this country.
God is so great, that He chose all of us to be here at this moment of time, to witness how He exposes evil.
He is bringing low the haughty for us to see.
And boy howdy, Biden is getting served a lifetime's worth of God's judgment, for all to see.
And we all know how Stan and his minions simply love to be exposed to the light.
Don't despair, Horde.
God's got this.

Possibly, but she at least has the ability to make decisions unlike Biden. She can choose which handlers to listen to and slip the chains. Joe is controlled by Jill and her personal faction and can be rented out to whatever faction is in power at the moment.

NR knows, as we do, that Biden was senile. It was obvious in the Spring 2020 debates. It was obvious when he refused to have press conferences, took no hostile questions, made speeches and talks to cardbord cut outs and Biden aides, and was incoherent during the debates with Trump.
In fact, if Biden had debated by the 2000 Bush-Gore rules he would've been destroyed. But the debate commission rigged the rules and let the moderators help Biden.
Yet, National Review said zero. They either attacked Trump or played Ponitus Pilate.

Tell me all the tough intereview or townhalls Biden has held since Spring 2020? Its insane. The Media/Democrat establishment just PICKED a candidate and told the American people how great he was. Any bad news for Biden was supressed. Well, now they can't hide Biden.

That's pretty derogatory around these parts. I read this blog everyday. I also happen to respect Andy McCarthy as a straight shooter, who admits when he was wrong. Like about the FBI and Russiagate.
"But Andy McCarthy has also vouched for just about every Deep State schemer involved in coup attempts against Trump, too."
You guys realize that McCarthy literally wrote the book on the FBI's malfeasance and corruption RE: Russiagate.
