Ever since the 388 page report on Biden's mishandling of classified documents, was made public, the nail in the coffin of Biden's re-election hopes may have been nailed. The report from special counsel Robert Hur was both good news for Biden, and very bad, politically damaging news, both.
On the one hand, it cleared Biden of guilt and free from criminal charges, by asserting that Biden was too mentally incompetent to manage his affairs, including the handling of classified documents, and therefore outside of the definition of criminal intent.
Well, that might have spared Jumbling Joe a prison sentence, and I suppose that was the # 1 priority, but it simultaneously wrecked any smidgn of a chance for him to run for re-electon, by officially declaring that Biden was a
"well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory."
Given Biden's reduced mental acuity, special counsel Robert Hur said, a jury would not in any case have found him guilty on documents charges.
Not that this report was needed the slightest bit to tell us what we all already know only too well, from seeing Biden stumbling through speeches, talking to dead people, falling down everywhere he goes, etc., but it does seem to now have a more official stamp added to it.
House Speaker Mike Johnson and other top Republican leaders of the House of Representatives called Hur's report
"deeply disturbing" and said it showed Biden was
"unfit for the presidency".
"A man too incapable of being held accountable for mishandling classified information is certainly unfit for the Oval Office," they said in a statement.
This is an obvious inescapable conclusion, and would be in most any job, from washing cars, to cashiering in a store, to being a security guard, etc, let alone being President of the United States.
Even before this revelation, Biden's chances for re-election have appeared dim, with Trump continually expanding his lead in the polls over Biden, and Biden needing to keep the Mexican border open (a very unpopular policy with Americans), as a way of ginning up VOTES for himself.
At this point, it is beginning to be quite apparent that the Democrats are going to need to come up with somebody else to run for president in November. Or maybe Republicans will be very lucky and Biden, with all his baggage, will be the Democrat candidate.
