Joe Biden Is Hillary Clinton 2.0 — Democrats Would Be Mad to Nominate Him.

Have the Democrats gone mad? Are they really planning on putting up the same type of candidate against Donald Trump in 2020 that they put up against him in 2016? Is the party bent on nominating Hillary 2.0?

How else to describe Joe Biden, the former vice president and ex-senator from Delaware, who is leading in the polls and has hinted that he’d reveal whether he’s running for president in “a few weeks” and might select a running mate early in the process?

Forget, for a moment, his “blue-collar-uncle-at-the-end-of-the-bar persona.” Ignore also his recent, and ridiculous, claim to have the “most progressive record of anybody” running for president. Consider, instead, the sheer number of similarities he seems to have with the vanquished Democratic presidential candidate of 2016.

More on each of the topics below in full article...

Iraq War supporter? Check.

Friend of Wall Street? Check.

Champion of mass incarceration? Check. Millions of black voters refused to turn out for Clinton in 2016. Why wouldn’t they do the same in response to a Biden candidacy in 2020?

Establishment-friendly? Check.

Gaffe-prone? Check.

Loser? Check.

Yet now, it seems, he and his supporters believe this serial loser is the only Democratic candidate able to win back white-working class voters from Trump and triumph in the 2020 presidential election?

Where is the actual evidence for this ludicrous claim? For a start, a recent poll found that “every potential Democratic candidate in the 2020 presidential election — announced and unannounced — would beat President Trump in a head-to-head contest.” (As Biden himself conceded to The Intercept in December, “I think anybody can beat him.”)

The bigger issue, however, is that there is no question for the Democrats in 2020 to which Biden is the answer. Have they really learned no lessons from three years ago?

So I'm pretty convinced Biden is going to be the nominee at this point. It's going to be ugly, but just reading headlines it's going to be Biden. Don't need to wager actual money, but any bets on who his VP choice is?

I'm still not sure, but I feel like it has to be a woman. My initial reaction is NOT Hillary.

I'm trying to think of who it could be. Dark horse though (no pun intended, I think...) Barack Obama? Not sure if that's even possible though. But it most certainly would give the base wet dreams and get them out to vote. Just the prospect of Obama potentially filling in for a senile Joe. Or Joe being the paper POTUS and Obama running the show. It's honestly about their best hopes to beat Trump. Maybe only hope if it's an actual possibility.

My guess is that he will pick Klobuchar as VP. She's a mid-westerner, a woman, and pulled out of the race before super-Tuesday, and gave her support to Biden.

You're thinking about the wrong man. It will be Obama, allright, but not Barak. It will be Michelle.

Minnesota is generally blue though and I don't actually think most the midwest feels they're a part of the midwest. More so Canada. Seriously. She's also not very attractive or a very compelling speaker. What works in MN doesn't jive with other parts of the midwest. It really is a weird state.

Not saying Klobuchar doesn't make sense, I just think he's going to need a push in other states that will be more up in the air come November. As sexist as it sounds, Biden will need a woman that is attractive and not a moron. From a state he has to carry to win. Ohio and Florida are tops in my book. Get that home state vote. I just think the entire Dem party is a rudderless ship at this point.

lol. I don't think Michelle is that into politics. He has too much money and doesn't want the hassle.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation raided a health care business linked to Joe Biden’s brother in late January, seizing boxes of documents.

The raid of an Americore Health hospital represented a deepening of the legal morass surrounding James Biden’s recent venture into health care investing at a time when questions about the business dealings of Joe Biden’s relatives, and their alleged connection to the former vice president’s public service, continue to dog his presidential campaign.

James Biden had more than half a million dollars transferred to him from the firm as a personal loan that has not yet been repaid.

Watch. Nothing will happen.

Biden wishes he was Michel Jackson.

Sure, of course it will be Biden. He represents globalists, and does the usual dance claiming that it's racist and sexist not to want your job exported to China or displaced by an illegal from Mexico.

Fortunately, I think most people see through this.

Joe Biden literally
1)Just started kissing her
And then
2)Grabbed her by the pussy!

I guess it’s one thing to talk about it with another guy like Trump did, but Biden actually did that while a sitting Senator.

Hillary won the popular vote, all Biden has to do is win the electoral vote.


...which Trump won. But in any case, voting is already too easy, it needs to be toughened.

Dems will push for mail-in voting without standards using the Coronavirus excuse; Republicans in the States must hold firm and give not a single inch. The enthusiasm gap will cream the Dems this November, all things being equal. Dems need Union Organizers and Nursing Home Admins with lists of members, retirees, and patients to fill out lots of blank ballots Broward style in order to win.


Republicans should fight very hard when it comes to state wide mail-in voting. Democrats are clamoring for it. Tremendous potential for voter fraud, and for whatever reason, doesn’t work out well for Republicans. @foxandfriends— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 8, 2020

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't looking forward to the debates:
267   AD   2020 Apr 30, 6:37pm  

.

I can see the Dem establishment telling Quid Pro Quo Joe Biden to pick a "fresh face" who is an up-and-comer to be his VP candidate. That means no Kamala Harris, Hilary Clinton, etc.

I can see him picking a Stacey Abrams, the drama queen Sally Yates, the governor of Michigan or even Gwen Graham a former congresswoman.

.

BIden's problem is that anybody with half a brain knows they are basically voting for the Veep, since Biden is clearly sundowning.

Normally, they pick a balancing candidate, but a Far Left Black Woman or Divisive, Authoritarian Governor, causes huge problems since they will really end up being President.

They need someone to motivate the base so it has to be a female and/or minority candidate.

And I think it has to be a fresh face since Biden has been in politics at the federal level since the early 1970s.

Yes, I will not rule out that Biden would step down perhaps mid term to hand over the Presidency to his VP. That will give the VP at least 2 years of experience as President.

Remember Biden said he did not want to run for reelection as President.
270   MisdemeanorRebel   2020 Apr 30, 6:59pm  

I'm betting Biden will be replaced at the convention, but your scenario is the next most likely. Corona will be a huge excuse to reduce attendance and have lots of virtual/mail in delegate ballots, which can easily be skewed.
271   MisdemeanorRebel   2020 Apr 30, 8:48pm  

Hillary Clinton continues to hover in the wings, ready to step forward should Joe Biden fail.

Don’t look now, but Joe is failing. Not only has his campaign been rocked by sexual assault allegations from one-time staffer Tara Reade, but the public is beginning to give up on the former vice president. A new Emerson College poll showed 57 percent of likely voters think President Trump will win reelection in November.

Remember, Establishment Democrats put forward Uncle Joe because he was the “safe” candidate, bound to defeat Trump. Oops.
