CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JULY 23, 2024
DID PRESIDENT BIDEN VOLUNTARILY WITHDRAW FROM HIS PURSUIT OF A SECOND TERM, OR WAS HE PUSHED BY BARACK OBAMA, NANCY PELOSI, CHUCK SCHUMER AND HAKEEM JEFFRIES? I’M GOING WITH THE SECOND SCENARIO: HE WAS PUSHED. RIGHT UP TO THE MOMENT OF HIS TYPED AND SIGNED ANNOUNCEMENT, BIDEN AND HIS SUPPORTERS CLAIMED HE WAS ALL-IN.
THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO FALSELY CLAIMED AGAINST EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY THAT WHILE BIDEN MAY HAVE APPEARED COGNITIVELY IMPAIRED IN PUBLIC, IN PRIVATE HE WAS ENGAGED, ARTICULATE AND IN CHARGE. EVEN KAMALA HARRIS SAID SO. WHO BELIEVED THAT?
THE DEMOCRAT CONVENTION MEETS IN A LITTLE MORE THAN TWO WEEKS IN CHICAGO. WHILE MANY DEMOCRATS ARE ENDORING HARRIS, SHE IS NOT A SURE THING FOR THE NOMINATION. DELEGATES WILL BE FREE TO VOTE FOR WHOM THEY WISH, HARRIS HAS TWO DISADVANTAGES AT THE START: HER APPROVAL NUMBERS IN KEY STATES ARE WORSE THAN BIDEN’S AND SHE IS LESS ARTICULATE THAN HE IS. WORD SALADS THEY HAVE BEEN CALLED.
SHE IS ALSO A SAN FRANCISCO LIBERAL, SOFT ON CRIME AND A SUPPORTER OF THOSE WHO RIOTED AFTER GEORGE FLOYD WAS KILLED. AND SHE MUST DEFEND THE RECORD OF THE BIDEN-HARRIS ADMINISTRATION. THE MEDIA WILL HELP HER, BUT IT MAY NOT BE ENOUGH. I’M CAL THOMAS.
