"Voice of the Establishment" "Journalist" at The New York Times: Biden Is To Old to be President and Should "Step Aside"

Biden's got new messaging advice: Pivot to Confidence.

The Wizened Elder hath joyous news for us all!

"Be confident," Biden said. "Because I am confident."

Go fuck yourself, Senior Retard.

Note in that article Biden lied about inflation being higher in other countries- - which it's plainly not.

And ABC lied on his behalf, claiming he meant... something. Something vague which makes no sense.


As for the causes of inflation, Biden flashed some defensiveness on that count. "If it's my fault, why is it the case in every other major industrial country in the world that inflation is higher? You ask yourself that? I'm not being a wise guy," he said.

Biden explicitly says that inflation is "higher in every other major industrial country in the world."

Spoiler: It's not. It's lower in every other major industrial country in the world.

Sometimes a lot lower.

In Japan, for example, it's 2.4% -- which we in the US would call about our target for inflation. (We shoot for about 2% inflation per year.)

In Israel, it's 3.1%.

But ABC claims he was just making a general point about... something. So it's not a lie.

And he's also not being "a wise guy."


The president's statement appeared to be about inflation rising worldwide, not necessarily whether countries had higher rates than the U.S.

Except for the part where he explicitly said that inflation is higher in "every other major industrial country in the world."

So what happened is that a staffer Walked Back his lie, and ABC is now lying that the Walkback is actually what Biden meant when he said something that plainly does not mean what the Walkback claims he meant.

Spokesbrainlet Karine Jean-Pierre had quite the time walking back (without walking back) Biden's lies about the inflation rate being higher in every other country in the world yesterday.

A new Suffolk poll finds "Stuttering" Joe Biden at 39%, which is bad, but that's not the really bad number.

The really bad number is 47%.

That's not his disapproval rate -- that's the number that strongly disapprove of his job performance now.


President Joe Biden said Thursday Americans were "really, really down." He's right about that.

A new USA TODAY/Suffolk Poll shows the country in a funk--

Why are we being blamed for this NSCOAMF's* incompetence? Susan Page is a dingy leftwing propagandist so of course she sees the fault in American citizens for letting Good Ol' Joe down and not having confidence in him and his policies.

-- and one that sets a problematic political landscape for Democrats in the November elections that are approaching fast.

Only 39% of Americans approve of the job Biden is doing as president. A stunning 47% "strongly" disapprove; just 16% "strongly" approve. Academic studies have shown that presidential approval is one of the most reliable predictors of what happens in midterm elections, and a rating this low would traditionally signal significant losses for the president's party.

New York Times Magazine national correspondent Mark Leibovich wrote an article for The Atlantic yesterday, proclaiming that Biden is too old to be president and everyone knows it.

Here's how Vodkapundit describes the NYT's Mark Leibovich:

Leibovich, for better or worse, is one of those wired-in journos who can act as the semi-official voice of Establishment Washington. And The Atlantic is one of those magazines that everyone who's anyone wants everyone else to see them reading.


In other words, Leibovich's column isn't quite Henry II asking, "Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?"

But politically, it's close. The Establishment can't get rid of Biden now, but they want voters to know he's finished.

It's an "Only Nixon can go to Red Lobster at 4pm on the button" situation, is what I hear him saying.

Leibovich writes that Biden is just "too old" and should "step aside" (!!!).

J
"I've spoken with 10 official and unofficial advisers to the administration who have spent time around the president during these deranged and divided days," Leibovich wrote for The Atlantic on Thursday, "asking them, essentially. 'How is he holding up?'"


It's a "recurring theme" from insiders "predisposed to liking the president" that Biden "just seems old."

"The age issue will only get worse if Biden runs again," Leibovich wrote, and already "it can be painful to watch him give prepared speeches."

Amusingly, Leibovich wants you to know he denounces "those gross Republican smears" about Biden being a "doddering and demented old puppet" in making the case that Biden is a doddering and demented old puppet. But it sounds nicer when a leftist says it, as always.

On CNN, you're not allowed to spread "those gross Republican smears," but you can talk about people talking about them. Here, Erin Burnett asks Van Jones about Biden's advanced age (he'll be closer to 90 than 80 by the end of his second hypothetical term, she notes), and Van Jones responds that if Joe Biden "isn't ready to go," they should tell us.

That's as close as this network of propagandists, perverts, and seditionists can come to saying "Look, he's plainly too old for anything more strenuous than 1 by 1 sodoku."

Soothsayer is making a good point (FOR ONCE): He says the media is making this about Biden's age, when it's really about the Democrats' policies, priorities, and incompetence. And that we should not buy into their framing.

Yes, Biden's age makes his incompetence more embarrassing and cringey, but he'd still be failing and we'd still have 17% real inflation (old measure), and we'd still have Drag Queens in every school, if he were a hale and healthy 45.

Below:

Behold, and Be Ye Confident!



* NSCOAMF = Non-Stuttering Clusterf**k of a Miserable Failure. Baracky Jibracky was the Stuttering version.

Biden doesn't stutter. He's just old, stupid, and lies like the devil, except a really stupid, incompetent version of the devil who is still bragging about once playing high school football back in nineteen aughty-aught.

Re: The Atlantic as "The Voice of the Establishment"


Leibovich, for better or worse, is one of those wired-in journos who can act as the semi-official voice of Establishment Washington. And The Atlantic is one of those magazines that everyone who's anyone wants everyone else to see them reading.

It's not quite that simple. The Atlantic is a Party organ, but there is still a factional war going on in the Party. Last year, they were the organ picked *both* times the "COVID is Over" faction decided to put up a trial balloon. They're aligned with that faction.

As for the "Biden is Over" vs. "More Biden" factions, I don't know. But the Atlantic is working for exactly one of them, just like before.

The idea is to blame biden for being a "poor communicator" of otherwise "great" and "successful" policies.

Don't fall for it.

Funny you should mention this, but there is the embarrassing matter of comparing temp variations on Earth with those on Mars and Venus. Which leads you directly to looking at insolation (incoming solar radiation/sun output...)

Go far enough down that rabbit hole and you reach the elephant in the room: the greenhouse effect is not, cannot be, responsible for the surface temps on Venus in the manner that the secular priesthood and pop culture demands it to be. A lot of things are built on lies that have been lies so long that the current practitioners may not even know they're lies.

44 Personally I don't care all that much about the gaffes. But the Democrat-NeverTrump axis made their bed by holding up Trump's derpy internet postings and saying that he doesn't act presidential, and acting presidential, whatever that means, is the most important thing about presidentin'. Can't have it both ways.

57 The left could blame Obama's failures on Bush, then once Congress went Republican they blamed Congress. Trump was too successful to blame Biden's failure's on him. Biden tries to blame Putin and COVID while at the same time saying he's handled Putin and COVID perfectly - so that doesn't fly. The only person left for the left to blame is Biden, but not because Biden is an idiot or because his policies suck, but because he's so old. If this were a 50 year old Biden following the same ideology, things would be great right now.

-- inflation means the economy is strong

76 Except for the part where he explicitly said that inflation is higher in "every other major industrial country in the world."

Actually, I think Joe might actually be okay on this statement (whether deliberately or accidentally is another matter). He could plausibly be saying all industrial nations have seen an increased inflation rate over the past year (for example), not just the US, so it's a global issue, not just his mismanagement of the US economy.

Insofar as the same politburo would be in charge, yes, absolutely.

But the age pivot might be because getting rid of Biden is more palatable than acknowledging the policy disaster. Like the old joke about about the new Soviet Premier who left two envelopes for the new guy labeled "open during crisis."

During the first crisis, he opened the first letter and it said simply, "blame everything on me." During the second crisis, he opened the second letter and it said, "write two letters."

Yep, there are plenty of old people who could do the job of president, and do it reasonably well. But Biden isn't one of them.

It's not the number of years he has lived that's the problem, it's that Biden has always been a stupid, corrupt, ignorant, nasty, narcissistic shitbag, and in recent years dementia has been added to the mix.

155 "Biden said 'I believe I have the votes' to lower prescription drug prices, reduce families' utility bills with tax incentives and place a 15% minimum tax on corporations. He said his plans would lower expenses for many Americans, though the measure would be scaled back from earlier intentions . . ."

Doofus. You put a 15%+ tax or corporations, and they will pass a 16%+ increase in prices on to us peons. This old geezer has no idea how economics really works. And the bastards pulling his strings don't care.

How would anything be different today if bernie sanders occupied the White House as "president?"
(hint: it wouldn't)
Democrats love bernie's policies, but knew they couldn't steal an election with bernie on the ticket because he would've got even less legit votes than biden.
Posted by: Soothsayer, the #1 most trusted name in news at June 17, 2022 03:35 PM

I don't know...I think Bernie believes most of his socialist clap-trap. The dem base is split. Dem leadership...the DNCe? They seem more like big business/big government techno-grifters. They want a more powerful government, but realize businesses can make them more money, so they aren't dedicated to destroying the economy quite like a commie is.

Bernie would try to forgive student loan debt, nationalize industries, use emergency powers to force more green economy crap through...

217 Biden is a fraud, but he's just a disgusting figurehead keeping the real players in power. Not the Obamas, of course- their grift relied on a promise of racial healing they would never deliver on even if they were allowed. The problem is simple: no one with the relatively light flaws of William Clinton was available to take the Dem nomination, hold the party together, and bear Trump. Biden is uniquely unfit, of course, but part of me suspects that was always the point. Provoke Trump into killing his enemies and then purge him in a Pentagon dictatorship headed by a Milley type.

Anyways, it's fucked. And it's the primary reason to pull any less tuned-in patriot from serving this evil fuck, even indirectly. At least one carrier will be sacrificed with all hands for the Biden regime. Bank on it.

If he was 45, all criticism would dismissed categorically by the media as white nationalist LIES from the SEIZING and POUNCING Right.

And it would work.

But he's too far gone for this play to work. His abysmal approval numbers are because people perceive him as weak and senile and that those things are responsible for our woes.

It's not as if the American people suddenly grew brains and connected the dots between the policies and the problems. That will never happen. They just see a weakling.

Because despite having horrible ideas and zero clue about how economics really works Bernie generally gives not a wit what the establishment Democrats thinks. Hence, he can not be controlled. That is bad. He might upset the graft and gift and, instead, send it to other grifters.

305 A lot of people today don't even know what "Inflation" is. This is probably part of a conscious effort to confuse people.

While monetary inflation always results in higher prices, higher prices are not necessarily caused by monetary inflation.

Good ole supply and demand will most definitely cause higher prices. But the "experts" will trot out the bullshit "the causes of inflation are myriad and complex" they try to muddy the water so it looks deep.

What I want to know, is if, or how, or perhaps when - what is the mechanism or possibility of those trillions of Petrodollars returning home?

The US government has in effect been exporting inflation for decades. You think it's bad now? What happens if say, a pound of Coffee is $500 ? What happens if trillions of dollars that have never circulated in the US suddenly try to purchase something - anything - of value, all at once, at the same time?

I suppose part of the answer is they are locked up in T bills and notes. But there is a hell of a lot of free range money out there. If it is no longer needed, what happens? Where does it go?

To be clear, this is a stupid strategy, even by the standards of the Wall Street elite. Biden is a senile pervert, but Kamala is a charmless aged-out whore literally too stupid to pour piss from a boot. It's not merely that Trump will fillet her, it's that China will know it's obviously time to take Taiwan.

Killing them both would solve that problem, of course, but Dr. Jill is probably aware of that, which is the main reason Biden hasn't visited Zelensky yet.

Don't forget the reason they are even looking for an excuse to get rid of Biden is because he's an epic fuck up. Not just a little, literally the worst president by approval since they started keeping those metrics. And they are undoubtedly boosting his numbers.

Trump got a record number of votes for a sitting president despite the hoaxes, despite the media, despite the riots and even the China virus because the things he did worked. He's out there right now rebuilding Congress with people who support his platform and he's only being successful because people support his platform.

Doesn't matter what he says ( i.e., how big a lie) or who he denegrates and that as senator he ultimately wasn't in charge.

Nothing will change as long as the government can still borrow or print enough money to pay Federal employees and hand out money to the "poor," and they're going to use the failing economy to put as many Americans on the dole as possible.

Yes. I'm not saying that any of this was thoroughly gamed out beforehand, Dems just desperately wanted to defeat Trump and didn't grasp how horrible Harris really is. But the Dems have no superstars right now, I mean, look at who they ran in the last primaries. I'm saying that now that their beloved polices are failing so horribly badly and the poll numbers are dropping so fast, that this is the strategy they've adopted.
No one blames liberal polices when they talk about the misery of the '70s, they always blame Jimmy Carter. But Jimmy Carter was only doing what the left wanted him to do. That's what Dems want now with Biden. That's why they're going after his age.

"Hey there fuzzy, long time no see." Her coat may have shielded her from the rain but not my eyes and those gams. A nice show. "I'm in a bind baby" She pulled a lighter out from, ... was she wearing anything under that coat? "I've burned so many bridges, it's hard for a girl like me in this town". She leaned in, "we once, we were once close" almost touching now "you remember?"

I pushed her chair back one, two, three inches. "Yeah I remember sugar lips, I remember all of it. It wasn't just bridges you burned." I look up at my shelves, still blackened with char from the little 'incident'.

"I know Ace baby. But I've changed now. I just need a break, a mention or two" She leans way in, yep she's naked as a jaybird "for ol' time's sake honey?"

431 His Fraudulency Joe Biden deliberately caused these record gas prices with an executive order that killed domestic oil and gas expansion and exploration. But now that his approval ratings are in the dumpster, the White House thought one “solution” to this might be to offer Americans free money in the form of gasoline rebate cards. There’s just one problem… Those cards would require a computer chip, and along with all the other shortages this administration has caused (everything from baby formula to tampons), we also have a computer chip shortage.

Because THE "people" are telling him "No". We'd kinda like due process and our fundamental right retained while known criminals are restrained first and foremost.

This is not a difficult debate. Unless you're looking for ways to lose.

He was only 56, so it's certainly possible. Big corporate CEO's usually have to get their health checked fairly regularly (for the insurance policies, etc.), so it's relatively unusual for one to just suddenly drop dead in his mid 50's.

463 It doesn't matter who the Democrats have as a figure head, the behind the scenes bs will continue to ruin the country.

I guess the idea for us should be, does Biden stay at the top so the country sees that the Democrats are falling apart like Biden's skeleton, or they put in Kamala and the public sees that other Democrats are also crap. It could kill either of their chances in 2024, so do we want Trump/DeSantis to face one of these two, or someone else that the Democrats can put forth with a semi-clean slate that can't be tied completely to the Biden failures? I'm not sure they have many people who can even run in 2024, since they've tied their party to either decrepit old shits, of the wall radicals, or people like mayor pete and Beto who are abject failures with no ability to get anything done.

They might be suppressing the inflammation cascade that made the original virus dangerous, but at the cost of hobbling the immune response.
That would explain the higher levels of cancers and other viral infections.
The SADS, thrombosis, strokes, nerve issues, and heart inflammation may be due to autoimmune issues caused by the infection by the spike protein, which is another possible side effect
