As the global hegemon and leader of the free world, it is crucial to know who is actually running the United States government. The Constitution clearly outlines the distribution of power. But conservative voters who watched the press and deep state work together to sink Donald Trump’s presidency have slowly realized that all is not as it seems.
On Sunday afternoon, the regime that propped up Joe Biden for four years unceremoniously discarded him with a simple social media post, placing him on the curb like a bag of garbage. While he still retains the formal title of president — for now — it’s clear that the ruling class has replaced the geriatric party man with a new puppet.
In failing regimes, the line of succession always becomes a question of great intrigue. When factions inside the ruling class are squabbling for control, it is best to make sure that your choice for the office has a clear path to power before making any moves. Any gap in continuity can lead to serious questions about legitimacy, so it is best to present the ascension of the next leader as a fait accompli. In the late Roman Empire, if a faction planned on assassinating the current ruler, it was critical to have a replacement presented immediately to the Praetorian Guard for approval and installed on the throne before anyone had time to ask questions or rally their own supporters.
Joe Biden has been mentally unfit from the beginning of his presidency. The press was already joking about the former vice president’s mental capacity in 2020, and it was very clear as Biden campaigned from his basement during the pandemic that his sole duty was to be as inoffensive as possible until Trump was defeated. The senator from Delaware had an unimpressive list of accomplishments and a few failed presidential runs to his name. Biden got to his position by being a party man, and his job in office was to act as a puppet for those who would truly run the White House.
Kamala Harris, whose major accomplishments are being black and female, exists in a similar vein. Biden originally described himself as a transitional president, presumably grooming the DEI-approved vice president as his successor. The old white man of the Democratic Party’s past handing the torch to a young diverse woman who was ready to lead the progressive movement into a new era — what a story!
