I don’t know if Joe Biden’s slow, terrible mental decline is going to be as spectacular as the fall of the space stations Skylab and Mir.

But it is just as certain, as this collection of clips demonstrate:

And like the Skylab rescue plans of the Space Shuttle, Kamala Harris is too flawed and unready herself to save him from the public impact of his mental decline, or the racial and sexual attitudes she herself ripped him about during the primaries. We’re way past the days when primary candidates forgave each other for angry fights over simple economic and other policies. Harris has literally said that she believes the sexual abuse accusations of Tara Read against Biden. Putting that behind them will be impressive if they can pull it off, although the MSM will help, as late night talk show host Colbert did the other day (Oh, for the nights of Johnny Carson and Jay Leno, or even pre-Bush Letterman).

See? It was just a debate as she fought to become President. Ha, ha, ha! Who could possibly take that nonsense seriously? That was then, this is now.

Still, we already know that American voters forgive or ignore such things anyway when voting for President and that #MeToo was a cynical game to be played only against Republicans.

You don’t want to talk about it? Gee, you sure seemed to want to talk about it a lot since Harvey Weinstein, and even more during Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation. What great timing!

I don’t think there is an excuse or gaslighting that’s going to work here. There were prominent media Lefties like Glenn Greenwald calling out these concerns and criticisms months ago.

But they also extended far into the Democrat Party itself, as this other collection of clips shows, where they discuss Biden’s mental lapses, racial and sexual problems and so forth.

Plus the Democrat primary debates themselves where the likes of Booker and Julian Castro did not hold back on getting stuck into Biden for him losing track of things he said inside of minutes.

It was therefore not surprising that a Zogby poll found that 55% said they thought the former vice president, 77, “is in the early stages of dementia.”

That low huh? And I like the Yes Minister spin of question setup; “early” is being generous.

What has happened is simple. Virtually no one took a Biden candidacy seriously. I know I didn’t, even as I acknowledged him as the only one in the “moderate” lane. I thought he’d be gone by Super Tuesday, if not earlier. Because he wasn’t taken seriously and the MSM were invested in pimping the likes of Warren, Harris and Sanders, they candidly reported on what was obvious to anyone: Biden’s mind is failing at a remarkable rate.

However, by March it was obvious that Biden was the only thing standing between Bernie Sanders and the Democrat Nomination, and that was not acceptable to the power brokers of the Democrat Party. The wild-haired communist from Vermont might actually close the carried interest loophole, force private equity Wall Streeters to pay the same effective tax rate as the proles, and not attack some country in the Middle East to maintain peace. Worse yet, Sanders might split the party in half, and break it forever into a powerless coalition. The Democratic establishment could not allow that to happen.

As a result you began to see pushback against all this Democrat criticism of Biden from the likes of Clintonista, Neera Tanden, who also worked for the Obama Campaign and Administration.

And the MSM pushed back as well – of course. Greenwald also addressed that crap in an article for Far left magazine The Intercept:

The list of prominent political and media figures raising these concerns throughout 2019 is long and diverse. That this is some recently manufactured script — “coordinated” by the Sanders and Trump campaigns to smear Biden — is so laughably and provably false that pro-Biden reporters should be ashamed to show their faces as they claim it…

… these concerns were first raised not by Trump operatives nor by Sanders supporters, nor were they first raised within the last several weeks. Quite the opposite is true: they were raised repeatedly over the last year principally by Democratic Party officials and their most loyal allies in the media.

But now the MSM are trying to gaslight us into believing the stupid and inappropriate things Biden says and does are compensation for his childhood stutter and not signs of dementia taking its toll. They are trying to put even the discussion of this obvious phenomenon off-limits by labeling it as a ‘conspiracy’ or as untrue.

Joe Biden has no business running for any office, let alone the Presidency where he has his finger on the nuclear trigger – and yes, this cartoon was for Trump but is an update of one done for Reagan in the early 1980’s. You won’t see the same cartoonist doing it for Biden.

He was never that sharp on his best days and those days were a couple of decades ago. This is a man who:

  • Barely remembers where he’s at on any given day, and that’s not an exaggeration.
  • Has repeatedly forgotten Obama’s name.
  • Forgets he’s on a live stream and walks out of frame.
  • Slurs his words constantly (no, it’s not a “stutter”)
  • Mixes up issues, not from ignorance, but from an inability to process what he’s trying to say.
  • Loses track of the conversations he’s having, even when he has notes.
  • Has his staff constantly protecting him from reporter’s questions on the rare occasions he emerges from his basement.

Just the other day he repeatedly forgot not one but two of his grandchildren: if had twenty plus I could accept that, but he has only seven. Old people who are totally healthy and have full control of their mental faculties don’t repeatedly forget such things.

And while people will say “but Trump!”, anyone with eyes can see the difference. Trump is a fast talking word salad at times, but there’s a difference between not being a good orator (or just being plain ignorant about a subject as Trump sometimes is) and confusing your sister and wife or forgetting what day it is. He’s whacked with standup reporter’s questions almost every day and deals with them.

Biden’s mental decline is real, it’s being shown to us in flashing lights, and the Trump campaign are not going to play the civility bullshit game and ignore it. The following advertisement just came out today and there will be more like it. If anything this is more effective than the other clips because it contrasts the Biden of 2015/16, when he seemed no different than usual, to the Biden of today.

Still, Kamala must be dreaming of how easy this is going to make a 25th Amendment call if they win the election. Perhaps that’s now the game plan.
