Rumor: Biden Considering Replacing Kumala As Vice President

I doubt this. It's unprecedented. It would cause a civil war in the party.

Also, no one is this proactive about a problem. No one. Especially not Sleepy Joe.

Everyone's preferred solution to a problem is wait and see if it goes away.

Maybe at age 65 Kumala will suddenly just get good at her chosen career as she enters her Twilight Years.

LOL.

But as impossible as that is, still, no one would take the dramatic, enormous step of firing a sitting VP with no pretext for doing so.

I mean, the reason is: She sucks, and she no longer sucks in the good way.

But you can't fire a woman just because she doesn't give you beejers.

Not since Harvey Weinstein. I mean, not since Andrew Cuomo, anyway.

However, there are a lot of rumors flying around and I guess it's fun to talk about the continued humiliation of poor Kumala, a Woman of Color, at the hands of a decrepit old White Man she once (understandably, it turns out!) called a racist, so why not.

Supposedly people are talking about the reviewing the procedures for confirming a Vice President in the House of Representatives.

Fox News host Jesse Watters implied that Biden may be considering removing Kamala Harris as Vice President after he said his network had heard 'whispers' of confirmation hearings in Congress.

'Our Capitol Hill Correspondent Chad Pergram tells us he's been hearing whispers suggesting there could be some new high-profile confirmation hearings on the horizon in the House of Representatives,' said Watters during the segment.

'Why is this a big deal? Because the house does not confirm normal nominees. But it does confirm vice-presidential nominees. Does this have something to do with Kamala Harris? It's been no secret she's been running out of favor with the Biden team,' he added.

The host touched on reports over the weekend that the Biden-Harris post-election bliss, had worn out as aides became frustrated with her awkward laugh, 'dysfunction and lack of focus,' and low approval rate of just 28 percent.

On Monday, Biden and Harris put up a united front when they stepped out of the White House together to sign the president's trillion-dollar infrastructure bill, after a CNN article on Sunday claimed that their relationship had soured.

Pergram claimed he had been tipped by an email from a 'source,' but did not elaborate further.

Now, adding this to the other rumor -- that Biden wants to get rid of Kumala by appointing her to the Supreme Court -- well that would satisfy the "resignation" criteria for replacing her.

I mean, she's never been a judge and seems like a perfect idiot and her career has consisted chiefly of literal dick-riding, but sure, whatever, she has the Lived Experience of a Woman and more than that a Woman of Color so that's all you need if you're left wing.

So they pressure the oldest leftwinger on the Court to resign -- that would be the 80+ year old Breyer (who has previously said he will not cooperate with schemes to get him out early, saying something like "I'll retire on my own schedule) -- they nominate Kumala, Mitch the Bitch and Lindsey Graham and John Thune and all the other Fake Conservative Chuckleheads confirm her in the interests of "cordiality" and "collegiality," and then they replace her with...

Who? Who is going to be the political stick of dynamite that thrills the nation? Who do they think is going to solve their problems?

The name being tossed around, of course, is Pete Bootyjudge, fresh off his TRIUMPH of totally changing his gayby's diapers and fixin' to startin' to contemplate considerin' the problem of resolvin' the shipping crisis that is his actual job.

But you know, he's gay, so again, his Lived Experience As a Gay Man is a perfect substitute for -- in fact, a superior substitute for -- actual accomplishment.

If you have an ear for it, what you can hear between the lines of recent pieces of journalism is that 1) A lot of people with a look into things at the White House think Joe Biden is not going to run for re-election. 2) Just about everyone thinks Kamala Harris is a disaster. 3) A significant portion of insider Dems think Pete Buttigieg is the cure for what ails them. 4) Kamala Harris' team is desperate.

I made fun of Kumala for blaming her situation on racism and favoring a White Man but I think I take that back: If they really are thinking of replacing her with this do-nothing, abandon-your-post-to-play-house nothing of a fart of a cipher, just because he's a Gay Man with Years of Lived Experience of Being Gay -- and the kind of White Man that other white men like myself call a vanilla whitebread ofay Yacht Club cracker -- yeah, I could see cause for some suspicions about favoring the White Man over the Woman of Color.

I mean, both suck -- literally as well in the ways that count professionally -- but that means there's no reason to favor one over the other. And no reason to replace a sitting Vice President.

Does Racist Joe Biden just prefer his incompetent inadequacy to come in a paler shade of milky?

I mean, at least Kumala "earned" her spot as Vice President.

By being " " " elected " " " and all, I mean.

With those 81 million votes, and everything.

I can't wait until this actually happens. I can't wait until they roll out Mayor Pete as if he's the Dwight D. Eisenhower of Eating Butt. Which he actually might be but I don't know if that wins you votes.

Maybe Kumala and Mayor Pete should actually have a d***s***ing contest to determine who gets to be Vice President.

No, that's not fair. Mayor Pete will win.

No, not because he "has access to the equipment 24/7."

Just because, you know.

Men are better at literally everything.

And I can't wait for the part where all the True Conservatives in the Senate vote for her.

Let all the masks fall.

Update: Commenters are saying the plan is to move Michelle Obama into the VP slot to make her the default Presidential candidate for 2024. She doesn't want to run for president, but she will deign to accept a coronation, the thinking goes.
