Gradually, Then Suddenly

Democrats denied for years claims that Biden had cognitive difficulties.

They were agog and aghast when the special counsel noted he shouldn't be prosecuted as he's an elderly man with a poor memory. Instead they publicly all claimed he was just fine: Democrats flood the Sunday shows to insist Biden's mind is just fine.

Then after the debate, when it was abundantly clear that after the Democrats and media covering for him and making excuses for years, it couldn't be hidden any more from the public.

The Democrats went from being in lock-step and insisting that he's fine, to now a majority of Democrats wanting him to drop out.

Now it veers on a full on preference cascade for the Democrats to replace him with someone else:  The Detroit News:  Nearly two-thirds of Democrats want Biden to withdraw, new AP-NORC poll finds

The list of Democrat politicians calling for him to step aside keeps getting longer as well

So how does Joe Biden get removed from being the Democrat nominee?  As is oft then case in these situations, gradually, then suddenly.

Democrats are all like women...even the men.

They follow the herd. Fashion, as it were.

Apparently they never think for themselves, they just follow what their friends think. I have never figured out who is the leader of the herd though.

Just today Biden announced he is in for the long-haul, well, unless his doctors tell him to leave.

Two hours later it is announced that he has COVID and events are cancelled.

Thing is, since the curtain is now wide open, between the Debate-From-Hell, the following Press Conference-From-Hell and the Attempted Assassination of Trump and the fallout over it, Trump has basically won past the margin of cheat. Any new dem candidates would be soundly thrashed and have their political careers destroyed. So only Biden and Harris are viable candidates for the worst political thrashing since, what, Dukakis?
