Take some Ridiculous, stir in some Contemplation, mix in a lotta Scary, add a pinch of Possible, and another of Oh Sh*t!, and you get a meme of a scheme making the rounds. (I’ve seen it more than once lately).
Namely, it’s a scheme and schema for crafting another Clinton Presidency; namely, a President Hillary Clinton. Here is how it goes:
Everyone should know by now that Biden is not going to make another three years. Oh, of course he's recently announced that he’ll be the candidate for 2024. He has to do that so as not to be seen (and treated) as a “lame duck” president. But it’s hard to imagine he makes it even one more year. He slurs like a drunk man, stumbles, farts in public (as reported by legit sources), loses his train, and squints like a used car salesman upon receipt of a reasonable offer.
Aside from that, his poll numbers drop… and drop… and DROP. If he were to somehow manage to hang on to January of 2024, the only thing keeping him from a 0% approval rating would be that aggregate of idiot leftist politicians who are committed to propping up anyone they’re ordered to prop up by virtue of their hidden MAP-status, and the horse-swapping of known peccadilloes: ‘You don’t expose me for this / I won’t expose you for that.’ (In unison): ‘AGREED.’
Meantime, given Biden’s short shelf-life, the Dems (and us) face a major dilemma: If/when Biden resigns, or is removed (via 25th Amendment), or falls down dead - we’re stuck with Kamala Harris. She has an approval rating even lower than Biden’s - 28%. In contemplating that cackling empty-suit that rating has got to be inflated. Got to be. But a Harris presidency would be an absolute catastrophe and even the idiot Left knows it. What to do? WHAT TO DO??
Here’s the scheme/schema:
Harris is enticed/threatened into resigning the Vice Presidency. It can be for “health” reasons, “family” reasons, or maybe she’ll be appointed to some other station where she can make “immediate, bigger, contributions” at this critical time given our nation’s challenges.
Biden nominates a new VP: Hillary Clinton. A slight wrinkle: The 25th Amendment requires confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress. But the nomination happens and we cannot be certain that Hillary isn’t confirmed. After all, the Clintons must have some powerful, powerful, POWERFUL dirt on big, big people. Anyone who can keep classified info on a private, unsecured, fileserver - and destroy protected government records at-will - and remain uncharged and out-of-prison has some big, big paddle. Her husband trucked with a known, practicing, pedophile too. Yah.
Biden steps down. In a year - two max - but maybe even sooner once he starts making ever-more and ever-greater gaffs, even he will know it’s time to go.
Hillary assumes the Presidency. We’re doomed.
Hillary nominates a new VP for approval. Michelle Obama? Yikes. We’re double-doomed. (Or is it exponential? Maybe we’re quadruple-doomed. Maybe we flatten all borders physical and metaphorical, and China rolls in).
One thing I can say with complete, 100%, certainty: If we do end up with a President Hillary Clinton, whoever builds, orders, and installs Presidential podiums will need to do replacements and put in the super-wide models. Considering her girth, those skinny podiums are a no-go:
