Let’s pause for a moment to admire the almost perfect art of the DNC

I make the distinction of “DNC” instead of “Democrats” because that is where the architecture for all this was conceived and ramrodded, er, implemented.

1) They can’t admit Joe is not up to running again without answering how he’s not up to running the country now.

2) They can’t elevate Kamala without dealing with the HUGE impression among the country that she is not qualified, her approvals have fallen even further after the debate, and there is a mountain of material out there that can’t be spun in 4 months.

3) They can’t NOT elevate her to the top spot (on the ticket or in the office) without facing the “Black woman” issue, i.e., she has all the advantages of incumbency, so why would she NOT be the go-to?

Honestly, the GOP couldn’t have painted them into a corner any better if they tried.

The GOP had nothing to do with this. Democrats painted themselves into this corner.

The prices of a purely DEI diversity hire are extremely high.

And for sure they didn’t try, or Biden would be a great position. The GOP can’t help but frick up everything they touch.

Just wait until a couple weeks before election day when Lindsey Graham suddenly makes a foaming proclamation about guaranteeing the GOPe will pass a nationwide federal ban on all abortions.

Watch. It will happen, or something similar. The GOPe is a self-destrucive collaboration of Borderline Personality Disorder.

The GOPe will do nothing but give you hope leading up to the election and then pull the rug out from under your feet and laugh about it. They are the controlled opposition wing of the Establishment Uniparty. Nothing more.

Your're missing three things - their focus on language to control how these things are talked about, their control of the media and their complete subservience to the goal in most cases.

These three things can get them out of this if they WANT out. I see no issue with bypassing Kamala. They'll throw up some new language, lie, etc. The media will do whatever it takes to bypass her - and her subservience will cause her to just go along with it.

They'll get it done if they want to. However ruthless and ridiculous they need to be. I do think the ONLY block to this is how vocal either Biden or Kamala in a negative position can be. And again, that's really controlled by #3. They hate conservatives far more than anyone else. They'll fall in line.

These are the biggest differences between the left and the right. The left will stop at absolutely nothing to get what they want, while the right is too busy being worried about trivial shite like decorum and bipartisanship.

I love it when token diversity hires backfire.

Of course the sad part is that Trump is so unpopular that he could still lose to either one of them. GOP had 5 or more other candidates that would have the DNC consider this election a loss and start focusing on 2028 by this point.

DEI will lead to eventual failure of any organization, by design, because it is anti meritocracy.

This is the guaranteed fate of the United States government as it is now highly infected with DEI. It's a matter of when, not if.

The Liberals are going to want Newsom, especially the big big money in Silicon Valley and Hollywood, and those people don't care who they shite all over, be it Biden or Harris
