Throwing Someone under the Bus
If throwing someone under the bus was an Olympic sport and the 2024 winner would undoubtedly be California Democratic Representative Nancy Pelosi for her historic action of throwing away a 50-year friendship with President Joe Biden over politics.
You know it didn’t have to be that way.
When Barack Obama and Joe Biden left office in 2017 there was no reason for either to keep one toe in the political mess they left behind. It would have been perfectly fine for them to go out on top of their political game having been defeated by Donald Trump.
But they just couldn’t leave well enough alone.
It is my opinion that the Obama-let Democratic Party began working their “Never Trump” campaign even before January 20th 2017. We’ve all seen the spectacle of the Congressional Black Caucus’ democratic boycott of Trump’s inauguration ceremony; the leaks and rumors; the betrayals of confidentiality of presidential conversations and telephone calls; the public display of disloyalty by government officials sworn to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America against ALL ENEMIES both foreign and domestic; the two impeachments led by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi; the outrage over border security by members of congress; the gerrymandering of the sham 2020 election where the most unqualified basement campaign by then former VP Joe Biden and then Senator Kamala Harris took the political stage by storm beginning with the culmination of orchestrated events of January 6th 2021 followed immediately by the January 6th Committee hunting down MAGA supporters simply because they were there.
As if that wasn’t enough, the political mess created by the Biden/Harris administration (their words) have caused the deaths of American military personnel, American citizens and our allies in Afghanistan and an untold number of American citizens becoming hostages in the war on Israel and nobody in this administration has come to their rescue.
The southern border debacle has let more than 20M illegal aliens (many confirmed or suspected terrorists and criminal gang members) into the heartland of America without so much as a blink of an eye.
Literally on the eve of a presidential election President Joe Biden while going through a serious senior crisis was blackmailed by Nancy Pelosi to drop his bid for re-election because she feared not for his or the welfare of our nation, but that uncle Joe was a liability to the party that guaranteed Donald Trump victory. (This was after calling Joe Biden a “Mount Rushmore-kind” of president.)
I don’t use the term blackmailed loosely either. Nancy exerted the pressure of a 50-year friendship to the point that if Joe Biden did not make the “right” decision she would publicly expose the cover up of his declining health or worse. Nancy hoped Joe would make the right decision just as she hoped and prayed that Joe would forgive her and rekindle their friendship.
Once that decision had been made public everyone jumped on the Kamala Harris/Tim Walz bandwagon as they battle for the hearts, minds and votes of America. The 16,000+ delegates committed to Biden were pushed aside and courted to become Harris’ votes instead.
I don’t have any confidence in the DNC committee or the possibility that during the convention scheduled to begin tomorrow in Chicago (Obama’s hometown) that same committee could pull a completely new switcharoo. (I still remember back in 2006 when Obama swooped down and took the nomination from unsuspecting Hillary Clinton after she made sure Bernie was out of contention). They say lightning doesn’t strike twice, but the DNC is not lightning but are and have been operating from the same old (Saul Alinsky) playbook (because it’s the only one they have and has worked in the past for them).
The only difference now is that we know who is driving the bus (& it’s not Joe Biden). – RTM
