I keep vowing to take a break from the anti-Cabbage reporting and yet every day something new and memorable emerges and I can’t help myself. Yesterday delivered three elite editorials in the New York Times that evidenced a kind of intellectual breakthrough. To get rid of their brain-damaged candidate, they are beginning to realize the gaslighting is no longer working, and they are forced to grapple with their worst enemy: the truth.
We begin with a truly remarkable piece penned by far-left pundit Nicolas Kristof, titled “Here’s the Hope if Biden Withdraws.” After a week of hapless Democrats pretending everything was business as usual, Kristof began by admitting what is manifestly true: this week was utterly unprecedented and historic:
Biden Agonistes! The elites love their neat turns of phrase, but I still prefer the simpler President Banana Brain, or words to that effect. In any case, at long last, Mr. Kristof has obviously started thinking. Without explicitly saying so —he’s not suicidal— Kristof admitted the Democrats’ policies of pushing trans mutilations and opening the borders have backfired:
Progress! Bite-sized progress, in small degrees, but still. Kristof continued in that vein, concluding that his greatest ‘hope’ for the country is that Joe Biden will step aside. At that point, Kristof’s logic crashed like a CrowdStrike computer, as he described a Democrat dream ticket: the unlikely pairing of Michigan lockdown maven Gretchen Whitmer and Senator Cory “Spartacus” Booker (D-N.J.) (for diversity).
Dream or nightmare; you choose.
Evoking whiffs of “Thelma and Louise,” regular Times columnist Michelle Goldberg published the paper’s second eye-opening op-ed titled, “It’s Time for Democrats to Hold Hands and Jump. “There is no salvaging this campaign,” she dolefully wrote. Waxing eloquent, she described the current status of the Donkey Party as “a despair-inducing slog” induced by “the profound pathos of a man unable to accept his inexorable decline.”
Ouch!
Ms. Goldberg offered the best and most succinct description of the Democrat Doom Loop that I’ve yet seen in print:
“But if that’s the worst of all worlds,’ an agonized Goldberg concluded, “the one we’re in now is a close second.”
Rounding out the trio, Times editorial darling, intellectual elite, and transgender Russian ex-pat Masha Gessen published a very thoughtful piece headlined, “The Seeds of This Political Disaster Were Sown Decades Ago.” Setting the table, Masha admitted she’d expected a conspiracy-theory fueled MAGA rally at the RNC convention, but instead beheld attractive ideological diversity and common sense:
It felt like an effort to reach independents who sympathized with things they heard from the RNC. But Masha really hit her rhetorical stride when, like Kristof, she described this week’s historical nature, and how difficult it was for all of us to grapple with:
But I nearly spilled my coffee when I read Masha’s description of the classic C&C Superman Fallacy — deployed in this case against Joe Biden:
Astonishingly, Masha intended to criticize Democrats for the autocratic argument that since Trump poses an existential crisis to democracy, only ‘superman’ Joe Biden can save America. Obviously, she also painted Trump with the same authoritarian brush, but her theme was really meant to answer Democrats clinging to Joe Biden:
All three authors also decried Democrats’ social media conspiracy theories, which this week widely speculated that the Trump Assassination Attempt had been staged to make Trump look good or something. The theories shocked the Times’ elites. Conspiracy theories are only for Republicans!
Masha explored how this confounding reversal could possibly happen:
Confronted with the left’s ready willingness to believe moronic conspiracy theories, Masha (correctly) diagnosed the problem not as Trump Derangement Syndrome or low information so much as low trust in government and media, correctly explaining that “conspiracy theories flourish — not, as it is often mistakenly thought, in a low-information environment, but in a low-trust environment.”
The gaslighting isn’t working anymore. They are starting to tell the truth. We are breaking through.
He is out
Officially a lame duck president
More specifically, a lame-ass duck president.
Lame duck presidents have nothing to lose.
Got to watch him close.
(his puppet masters.)
If those puppet masters fell they have Kamala under their thumb, they will control him for these last few months.
But an October surprise might be really traumatic.
After all, Kamala is no shoe in.
He has a LOT of pardons to issue, possibly one for himself.
How did they buy off Jill? Another Mansion?
How could Biden pardon himself or others while in office? When there aren’t any trials with convictions done yet ? Looks like the nation will have to wait this out until Trump is made president again . By then Biden & his partners of crime will be past the Rubicon with the point of no return un-reachable. Then we as citizens will find out what their fake money can buy ?
It is speculated that a President could pardon himself. This could be the first time that theory is tested. He can pardon people for anything they may be accused of, just like Hunter was in that blanket pardon the DoJ had planned for him.
But, I could be wrong.
There is no crown yet for CamelA, there is still a convention, one they intend to do by proxy. Chicago to dangerous?
Will Spielberg put together another covid style puke fest?
Chicago just got MORE dangerous.

Crooked Joe Biden was not fit to run for President, and is certainly not fit to serve – And never was! He only attained the position of President by lies, Fake News, and not leaving his Basement. All those around him, including his Doctor and the Media, knew that he wasn’t capable of being President, and he wasn’t – And now, look what he’s done to our Country, with millions of people coming across our Border, totally unchecked and unvetted, many from prisons, mental institutions, and record numbers of terrorists. We will suffer greatly because of his presidency, but we will remedy the damage he has done very quickly. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
So, did he drop out because he’s done such a shitty job, he can’t possibly win and will drag the rest of the ticket down with him or because he is incapable of talking, walking and thinking? Or both? It kind of makes a difference.
Breaking News…. ….
The President of the United States has been forced by his own party to drop from the race, the man that got the most votes in History by campaining from his basement lair.

Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden is trying to do what Obama did: set himself up to be the #2 worst President.
It must realy hurt when the NYT’s is forced to tell the truth in their Leftists Rag
The New York Times is doing what the Japanese call ,.. saving face . They have lied so much that they now seek grace for their deceit . Forgiveness doesn’t come that easy. It’s the doers who become justified. Were is their evidence of remorse ?The New York Times evidence is nothing more than crocodile tears .
Well, they have an awful lot of face saving to do.
