Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

Video: Psaki is asked if Biden has a message for the families of fallen marines who were offended by his conduct, such as repeatedly checking his watch.

Whenever he speaks about the 13 killed, this is what I see. And a voice saying "Ah, I see Rylee was dear to thee..."

She probably was instructed to do so by her betters--lest they "roll that beautiful bean footage" of whatever infant/toddler child porn she consumes, collects, or produces.
And if you think for a minute I'm pulling that out of my ass, just remember: Epstein didn't kill hisself.

I was glad to retire when I did, 23 years ago. It wasn't the same military it was even five years previously, much less the military I joined so long ago. Believe it or not, there was a time in the 1980's when people were treated as adults and professionals. But then the "nanny military" took over. I was high enough in rank to ignore most of that shit, but some years back I was at an Army base and noticed students having to do a threat assessment to have a picnic in a city park in Monterey, CA. Sure do hate seeing a military that runs scared, not to mention a regime in Washington both clueless and paralyzed.

They made their beds they can sleep in them. There is a very old saying about the fact that nobody likes a traitor, even when they are on your side. Even the romans recognized this. The fact of the matter is they are collaborators who benefitted in some way from collaborating with an occupying military force and the puppet government they installed and kept in power. Just because that force and government happens to have been on your side and for reasons you might agree with or even support, doesn't mean its a good idea to trust anybody who would collaborate with a foreign power for personal gain. Such people are loyal to nobody but themselves, cannot be trusted and can be bought. What they will do for you they will do to you
There is a good reason why such people have been dealt with harshly after said occupying force left, historically
They knew the risks and the consequences for such acts and thought it wouldn't come back to bite them in the ass. Such people deserve everything they get
As for the governments role in all of this, they evacuated several collaborators while leaving hundreds of their own citizens to inevitably be taken prisoner and/or killed. That says everything you need to know about what the government thinks of the average american citizen. Let this be a lesson - don't go to third world shitholes
What do you expect from people who are obsessed with eating bugs? If I had to eat that shit i'd be obsessed with food as wellJohnLenin said:

Official DNC spin for Biden's Watchgate is apparently "He only looked at his watch for a second! Also Glumpf!!!"
Right-wing media are trying to manufacture a scandal out of President Joe Biden’s visit yesterday to the dignified transfer ceremony at Dover Air Force Base, in which the remains of U.S. troops killed in last week’s terrorist attack in Afghanistan were received home.
And now, Fox News is even manipulating its own news video — playing it back in slow motion — in order to provide corroboration to right-wing complaints that Biden looked at his watch during the ceremony.
Notably, the initial video that circulated online included a clip from Fox News’ live coverage of the transfer ceremony on Sunday, during which co-anchors Mike Emanuel and Jacqui Heinrich, Fox national security correspondent Jennifer Griffin, and news correspondent David Spunt all did not seem to notice anything amiss. But after other right-wing media personalities jumped on this visual, based on a few seconds of Biden’s hand movements during the ceremony, Fox would soon find itself having to catch up.
Within about 15 minutes of the ceremony, Newsmax host Benny Johnson tweeted the clip while alleging that Biden “appears to check his watch.” Johnson’s claim has since spread through a number of other right-wing outlets, including the Boston Herald, The Daily Wire, the U.K.-based Daily Mail, and Fox’s corporate cousin the New York Post. Many of them used a still photo from The Associated Press — one of many from the ceremony — that selected the brief moment when it might have appeared Biden was looking at his wrist.
From there, Fox has covered the story in terms of conservatives denouncing Biden, without putting the network’s own name on whether the story was true. On Monday morning, during a headline update during Fox & Friends, news reader Jillian Mele said, “President Biden being criticized for appearing to check his watch … . The video going viral, and as you can understand, a lot of people have strong opinions on this.”
And as can be seen by comparing the two videos, Fox has now put Biden’s movement in slow motion — at roughly half the speed, in order to double the apparent time of the movements.
The manner in which Fox jumped on this bandwagon also stands in stark contrast to how the network handled past reports of disrespect to fallen troops by former President Donald Trump. Last year, when Griffin confirmed other reporting that Trump had called fallen U.S. soldiers “losers” and “suckers,” and that he did not want wounded veterans included in his special July 4 military parade in 2019, other personalities on the network continued to call the story a “hoax,” trying to downplay Griffin’s reporting and claim that the story had been “refuted.”
But now, Fox News contributor Newt Gingrich claims that the latest manufactured outrage is a lesson in the “callousness and selfishness of the current President.”
Right-wing social media personalities had apparently geared up to find any reason whatsoever to criticize Biden over the ceremony. On Saturday night, a number of conservatives circulated a false claim that the remains had arrived at Dover with no administration figures present — even though the remains had not yet arrived. (Nevertheless, the claim was spread in now-deleted tweets by such figures as Fox News host Laura Ingraham and Fox contributor Richard Grenell.)
Once that story was debunked, of course, they had to move on to something else.

My sincere hope--and I am unanimous in this--is that all the way up to death, Biden has many moments of crystal clear lucidity so he can experience and enjoy many recurring moments of stark, sheer, Event Horizon OH SHIT! terror before slipping back into incoherence.

Media Matters never even bothers to refute what they whinge about. It's an enitre organization dedicating to kvetching about Republicans pouncing.

For people who don't follow my posting, I lean mildly left. I try to give credit when it's due, no matter which party is being discussed.
Taking that into account, FUCK Joe Biden. What a completely worthless piece of shit. He would be borderline traitorous for his callous disregard of American and allied lives if I wasn't 99.9% sure he's senile as fuck and showing all the symptoms of being mentally gone. Coming out defiantly after your completely botched operation cost American lives, stranded American citizens, embarrassed us globally, and put a death sentence on Afghan allies is absolutely unacceptable.
I've always disliked Joe Biden, but before he was just a running political joke. Crazy Uncle Joe, saying dumb shit, acting weird and being a typical Washington swamp creature. After Afghanistan, no one should be laughing. Leaving him in the big chair is a complete disgrace and, since either he's being allowed to bumblefuck important things up or his underlings are too incompetent to work around his mush-brain, he's a danger to American security.
Congrats Joe. Your legacy went from mostly harmless goofball to demented monster.

My theory is that handing the Taliban the victory, our gear, planes, tanks, women, dogs, drone striking families, looking at the watch, relieving Lt. Cols of duty, no resignations, mandatory vaccinations, critical race bullshit in the military is all about trying to get the very honorable officers to resign so their positions can be filled by woke brown shirt goons.
It's the same tactic as with defunding the police last summer.
