NYT Reports That Biden Is Considering Dropping Out of the Race »

Democrats Are Weighing Whether to Move Up the Convention Vote for the Presidential Nominee to July 21 -- To Short-Circuit Any Attempts to Replace Biden
They'd better hurry.
And Happy Wednesday Before the Fourth of July.
Happy Humpthird, everyone! Humpthird greetings to all! Let us all put up the Humpthird festoonery, and go out wassailing our Humpthird songs!
I do not think Biden will be able to hold off the storm for another eighteen days.
The Democratic National Committee is considering formally nominating Joe Biden as early as mid-July to ensure that the president is on November ballots, while helping to stamp out intra-party chatter of replacing him after last week's poor debate performance.
A potential date for Biden's nomination is July 21, when the Democratic convention's credentials committee meets virtually, according to people familiar with the matter who spoke on condition of anonymity. The panel is meeting to finalize procedures before the party's convention in Chicago starts on Aug. 19.
Democrats had already planned to nominate Biden, 81, before the convention in order to ensure he appears on the ballot in Ohio, which had an Aug. 7 deadline for candidates to be certified.
That deadline has since been moved back, but the plans to nominate the president early could serve another purpose: helping to quell talk of a potential replacement or an open convention following Biden's cataclysmic debate against Donald Trump. The president's lackluster showing last Thursday sparked calls from some prominent Democrats for him to suspend his campaign in favor of passing the torch to someone else.
In the days since the debate, Biden's allies have struck a defiant tone, angrily dismissing calls for the oldest president in US history to end his reelection campaign to make way for another contender. The incumbent president won about 99% of his party's pledged delegates during the 2024 primary contest.
This story, published on Monday, notes that July 21 comes ten days after the planned sentencing hearing for Trump's Fake Conviction in Manhattan. I guess the idea is that if Trump is sentenced to jail, Biden might be able to hang on to power.
Except... Alvin Bragg agreed to delay that sentencing hearing.
Is he one of the Democrats conspiring to get rid of Biden, too?
I don't see why he wouldn't like Biden -- Alvin Bragg obviously shares Biden's passion for ice cream.
And hamburgers. And fries. And fishandwiches. And Oreos. And breakfast tacos. And pumpkin pies. And cherry pies. And apple pies. And chicken pot pies. And Double-Stuffed Chalupas.
This is true: Biden is seen as providing "centrist old-school cover" for all the left's vicious Marxist, pro-child-grooming and child mutilation, and pro-terrorist beliefs:
Biden gets credit for being "centrist" for one reason: Because he's casually racist and always has been. This is seen by the left as a desirable quality, at least in a Democrat, because that means he can reach out to other casual racists and sell them open borders and transgenderism for children.
They have always euphemized Biden's racism as "folksy" or "earthy."
It's a bizarre thought, but they believe that. They believe his casual old-school racism makes him a superior candidate who can bring non-progressives along for his hard-left agenda.
