I haven’t said a word, at least in this space, about the current New York Times-driven media frenzy to get Joe Biden to drop out of the presidential race. There are a couple of reasons for that; you can probably predict most of them without me saying anything.
- I can’t do anything about it and I have enough fucking stress in my life right now;
- I find the entire thing hideously, insanely, diabolically stupid;
- The people calling for Biden’s ouster fall into one of two categories: media-aligned chaos agents, by and large who should be lined up against a wall and shot, and frustrated Bernie types who still think the DNC somehow used their magical election-fixing powers and forced millions of fucking people to vote for Biden. The former are actively for Trump (the NYT never gets another dime from me) and the latter will not be satisfied with anyone the Democrats replace Biden with anyway;
- Not one in ten of these people have actually thought through how complicated it would be to replace Biden with anyone other than Kamala Harris, and again, the people who have been calling Harris “Copala” for the last six years, again, are still gonna be mad. Fuck ’em.
There’s been some horseshit about Parkinson’s disease lately; there is no way that the legislation Biden signed this week about Parkinson’s disease could have resulted in Parkinson’s experts showing up at the White House, right? Nah.
Ultimately I will literally vote for Biden’s corpse, or Harris, or Bernie fucking Sanders, or a cold pile of bloody vomit in November, whatever is running against Trump. I give no fucks. President Cold Pile of Bloody Vomit will be an adequate replacement. I don’t have the mental energy to war-game this out; it’s the exact same bullshit as But Her Emails or Kerry’s Purple Hearts or Obama being from fucking Kenya. The news media has to have a big lie for every Democratic president. Ultimately, I’m gonna vote for the old guy with the stutter, even if he gets sick a couple more times between now and the election, and anyone who doesn’t want to do that can literally die in a fire for all I care, and that’s all the fuck I have to say about it.

That last bullet point is the one which makes me wonder how these people don’t understand what kind of damage they are doing (or maybe they don’t care — I don’t have the brain space to decide which one it is). I don’t know what the specific, technical process would be to change this particular horse in midstream is, but there is no way that it is either simple or easy. (Personally, I like the idea of finding a doppelgänger and making the film Dave reality.) Also, I can’t handle the fact that they aren’t exerting the same amount of energy to replace the Republican candidate.
Once the replace Biden notion gained traction or at least volume, I pretty much unplugged from the presidential race.
I kind of loved Biden’s angry letter — the part where he basically says, “You want a piece of me?!? Then come and get it.”
