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?

CNN poll: America turns irate, glum
Americans are fuming and pessimistic at this time, that’s for sure.
A new CNN poll finds that 74% of U.S. adults now say they are “very or somewhat angry” about the way things are going in the U.S. today — that includes 88% of Republicans, 70% of independents and even 67% of Democrats. But wait, there’s more.
Another 69% of U.S. adults now say that things are going “pretty or very badly” in the country these days — that includes 91% of Republicans, 72% of independents and 49% of Democrats.
And by the way, illegal immigration is still a concern for many in this nation. The CNN survey also found that 77% of U.S. adults say that it is important that the federal government “stops the movement of undocumented immigrants into the United States.” And the partisan breakdown: 95% of Republicans, 76% of independents and 52% of Democrats agreed.
“The tentatively positive public outlook that marked the first months of the Biden administration has faded, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS. The survey, released Friday, finds a rising share of Americans who say things in the US are going badly and that the economy is in poor shape, with increased worries about the coronavirus, the economy and crime,” wrote CNN analysts Jennifer Agiesta and Ariel Edwards-Levy.

BIDEN’S ‘RULING CLASS’
Matt Schlapp — the energetic and fearless chairman of the American Conservative Union — is still mulling over President Biden’s “foolish decisions” on the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan. Mr. Schlapp also recalled the challenges former President George W. Bush faced in the region.
Remember that? Here’s a reminder:
“From aboard the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln on May 1, 2003, standing directly under a ‘Mission Accomplished ‘banner, President George W. Bush declared, ‘In the battle of Iraq, the United States and our allies have prevailed.’ Bush’s claim of victory in what became known as the ‘Mission Accomplished’ speech drew criticism as the war in Iraq continued for several years thereafter,” History.com noted in an analysis of the situation.
Mr. Schlapp acknowledged in a new essay for The Federalist that “the Bush administration also made hasty mistakes amid a desire to spike the ball and declare ‘Mission Accomplished.’ But lessons are supposed to be learned so mistakes are not repeated. For Team Biden, it should never have been about when we would leave Afghanistan, but how.”
“Unfortunately, Biden has allowed his administration to be overrun with overconfident, ideological warriors, who may read intelligence reports but do not believe or learn from them. Replete with the best degrees, and long pedigrees earned by slavish commitment to all the politically correct causes, there is a ruling class in this administration that always knows best, blames America, and cynically relies on national media to cover up for all the errors and omissions of socialism, globalism, and elitism,” Mr. Schlapp said.
THE TRUMP DOMINO EFFECT
The Democratic Party is still fixated on retaining control of Virginia — and consider the commonwealth a lynchpin state in the 2022 midterm elections and the 2024 presidential race.
They are also wary of former President Donald Trump‘s potential for a return stay at the White House.
“If we’re not careful, Donald Trump’s 2024 comeback will start in Virginia. Just look at the numbers,” notes a fundraising message from Terry McAuliffe for Virginia, the state’s former governor now facing Republican challenger Glenn Youngkin in the gubernatorial bout.
“In 2020, Virginia voters came together and helped Joe Biden defeat Donald Trump by ten points. But now, Terry’s opponent has been endorsed by Donald Trump three times. Polls show he’s within just two points of catching Terry McAuliffe, with one even showing him ahead. We’re trending the wrong way, and we’ve got to do everything we can to turn this around,” the emailed message stated.
“Joe Biden’s win was only possible last year because of grassroots supporters helping out whenever and however they could. We’ve got to do that all again if we’re going to elect Terry McAuliffe this year. Joe Biden made it perfectly clear when he campaigned for Terry in Virginia. Virginia is the next battle in the soul for America. If we elect Terry, we stop Donald Trump,” the message concludes.
A ‘PANIC’ IF YOUNGKIN WINS
A Democratic loss in the aforementioned Virginia race — or in the California recall election of Gov. Gavin Newsom on Tuesday — would definitely send a shiver of fear among the Democrats.
Panic, even.
“Democrats should win each race comfortably. However, even a closer than expected win by the Democratic candidates in either race could send a political message. If Democrats’ margin of victory is under 10 percentage points in California or less than 5 percentage points in Virginia, then it could be a sign of voters’ frustration with Democrats and reinforce the anxiety that some moderate Democrats might be feeling about the 2022 midterm elections which could in turn impact how these lawmakers vote on the infrastructure bills, especially the ‘soft’ infrastructure bill. A Democratic loss in either race could induce outright panic,” predicts Brian Gardner, chief Washington policy strategist for Stifel, a global investment banking company.

There has always been a degree of historical enmity between Russia and China. This intrinsically limits the amount of mutual cooperation.
That was a war we should never have fought. In 1945 we should have told the French to stay out of Vietnam after the Japanese surrender.
@Oxous - good article. Have been saying for some time the national level of anger is the highest I have ever seen, and I'm in my seventh decade. However, the Biden regime doesn't give a flying fuck, just keeps pissing people off.

This really is A Bug's Life with the grasshoppers and ants.
One of the Alinsky rules for radicals is to make your numbers appear to be bigger than what they are.
If enough people hit their limit of getting abused to the peril of their livelihoods by these rats in charge, it would not take much to throw them off.
I am afraid it may come to that because there sure as hell is not a military or justice department to do it.

If any of you don't own one by now I'd recommend you pick up a decent hunting rifle and learn to scope it in and shoot it. Maybe get a .22 as well for when times are extra sparse. But venison is very tasty and healthy, and so far hunting licenses are one of the few things I haven't noticed them fucking with too much recently. Hunting really isn't as hard as one would think from all the gadgets they market to small dicks either, at the root of it it involves having an understanding of your weapon, of the animal and the land more than having camouflage underwear and thermal scopes and shit like that.
Also buy some heritage seeds while you can (non GMO) and get some winter crops like kale planted.
Worries about the effects of inflation are easier to manage when you know how to provide food for yourself and your family outside the grocery store. For urban kiwis I'm not as familiar with what you have to deal with, but hell if you have to, rent a car and go on a hunting trip, there are shitloads of hunters as well as legit businesses who have no problem taking some money and/or a case of beer from yuppies to take them in the hills for a day and teach them where and how to shoot something edible.

So why hasn't China just gone and attacked Taiwan yet? The U.S. government & military are cucks who will hold the CCP's balls for them while the CCP fucks their wife.
In fact, why doesn't the U.S. just surrender all aircraft carriers, naval vessels & blueprints thereof to China with bows tied around the front & a nice Hallmark card handwritten in Chinese that reads "Sorry for the wait time"?

77% are angry. I mean, I am angry enough that I want to drag my forge out to start making bayonets but sadly I can't.
Also comparing Biden to George Bush. I need to make a meme of that.
Can someone Photoshop Biden into the Mission Accomplished George Bush picture? Or better yet have them side by side.

I keep looking for the New York Times changing their article but all the links are blank.They're only saying this now because there's not a damn thing we can do about it now that Beijing Biden is in office. Absolutely despicable.
Has @Null made any noise about this? This is fucking terrifying. The consolidation of information continues.....

Not actually a bad move on their part, despite what an utter trashfire the US military appears to be right now. The Virginia-class SSNs are built on proven tech and actually managed to come in on time and under budget miraculously, and the Silent Service as a whole is probably the most underrated part of the Navy.

That was the idea of having a representative republic - that no matter how large we got, the states and localities would still have the final say and hold all the cards. But by the 20th century for whatever reason (and I'm sure a lot of Kiwis will give you different ones) that had gone out of favor for the political class.

currently, they don't have enough landing craft ready for it just yet, even if they are about where they should be with missiles and getting there with the navy + air force. it seems pretty certain that they were unsure of how a Biden admin will actually look and the summit in spring between the US and Japan actually had them stop their usual flyovers of Taiwan airspace, as Japan's commitment to defend them + US being there for it sent a fairly clear message.
the moment Afghanistan started unravelling, tho, and when they saw the admin completely botch the responses to it, those flyovers resumed at the end of last month and it's probably safe to say they're ramping up to make an attempt sometime in the next few years, while this kind of weakass bitch happens to be the POTUS. I expect Milley and such to be at the frontline of rationalizing 'why attack China over Taiwan, when it's simply a nation walking into its backyard' ala Neville Chamberlain pre-WW2 and the NPCs to cheer it as in 'wow so stunning, so brave to not be warmongering like the US usually is!'
