Before Booting Biden, Look Over Horizon at Harris

Fox News is reporting that Congressman Ronny Jackson (R-TX), the former White House physician, has doubts Joe Biden will finish his term as president, and he is calling on Biden to undergo an exam and disclose the results publicly.

“Our cities are EXPLODING with drugs & violence,” Jackson tweeted, “because of Democrat ‘defund the police’ policies and the GREAT UNITER Joe Biden deflects to talk about ‘sucking blood out of kids.’ He’s completely LOST it! Needs a cognitive exam NOW!”

But before anyone gets too excited about getting Biden out of office, whether it be voluntary or by invoking the 25th Amendment, better think ahead about his replacement. As vice president, Kamala Harris would immediately be sworn into office, and many believe she would be a disaster. After all, she dropped out of the Democratic primary race early, not because of Republican opposition but because she did not resonate with voters in her own party.

Her message on guns has been crystal clear since she started running for the presidency almost three years ago. She would go after gun owners, give Congress 100 days to pass the kinds of actions she supports, including a ban on so-called “assault weapons,” and if nothing happened, she would take executive action.

As reported at the time by Harper’s Bazaar, “Harris publicly committed to a host of executive actions that she would have undertaken if elected to the Oval Office, including mandating universal background checks, revoking the licenses of (and possibly prosecuting) gun manufacturers who break the law, closing a legal loophole in order to prevent those convicted of domestic violence from purchasing a firearm, and banning AR-15-style assault weapons from being imported into the country.”

When she was California attorney general, Harris was sued by gun rights and retail firearms organizations including the Second Amendment Foundation, Calguns Foundation and California Association of Federal Firearms Licensees.

Harris wants to hold gun manufacturers for crimes committed with firearms. In all, Biden may be bad but Harris has the potential to be a lot worse, and if she were to assume office 25 months into Biden’s term, she would be legally eligible to run for her own two full terms.

Bottom line is Harris would be bad news, and not just for gun owners and the Second Amendment.

Her tactic of answering questions she doesn’t want to answer by first being sarcastic and then breaking out into cackling laughter is wearing thin. That doesn’t mean she won’t continue doing it.

Democrats have wanted to be the first party to put a woman in the White House. They missed the mark with Hillary Rodham Clinton, but they might score with Harris.

Biden’s recent debacle during the CNN Townhall when his slip-of-tongue revealed he does want to ban 9mm pistols, and his other gaffes since taking office, and his shifting of gears midstream in a sentence suggest to many, including rep. Jackson, that he is not in full control of his faculties.

In a revealing piece aired by the KFMB in September 2020, the report acknowledged that what the Biden-Harris team wanted to do then was to “make the U.S. like California.” To gun owners in Idaho, Montana, Colorado, Oregon, Washington, the Dakotas, Utah, Arizona, Texas and elsewhere west of the Mississippi River, that’s the kind of discussion that starts brawls.

The only thing that could change what may be on the horizon is a Republican capture of Capitol Hill—both the Senate and the House of Representatives—in November 2022. With the GOP in control, neither Biden or Harris would accomplish anything. Should Republicans win back the House, it is not inconceivable Nancy Pelosi and other older Democrats would decide to retire.

But it would have to be a decisive GOP victory in November 2022, meaning that every gun owner would have to vote, instead of sitting the election out.

In the meantime, if Harris does somehow take the reins with a Biden departure—he will have, after all, achieved his 47-year quest to win the presidency that began when he first set foot in Washington, D.C.—there could be far more trouble than gun owners care to imagine.

That’s why talk of sending Biden home to write his memoirs should be alarming to gun owners, because while he may be losing momentum, Harris is just warming up.

“When you talk about Joe Biden leaving office, it’s necessary to look over his should to see who’s waiting in the wings to take his place.”

A direct result of electing a Marxist whore to the position and a mumbling bumbling idiot with one foot on a banana peel.

No question about it, as bad as Biden is, Harris is much worse. As crazy as it seems, in my opinion, we have to hope that Biden holds onto his office. Never thought I would say such a thing but I also never thought the Demoncrats would put someone like Harris in line to be president either.

Let her try it, with exec orders no less. We won’t comply, and she will be out so fast her head spins. Or it will be war. She can’t enforce anything she claims she can do.

Not happening any time soon. Would Edgar Bergen have gotten rid of Charlie McCarthy, would Sheri Lewis have gotten rid of Lambchop or do you really think Jeff Dunham would get rid of Walter, or any other of his puppets? Why in the world would you assume the people with their hands up Joe Biden’s ass, moving his lips and using him for their own personal gain and profit do anything different than any other successful ventriloquist would do with their talking dummy?

The dimms themselves will be begging to kick kameltoe’s ass out of office if she ever makes it that far. That corrupt hose beast is a ticking time bomb.

I wouldn’t worry too much. Resident Xiden won’t step down early — he’ll stay in the saddle long as he can to “protect & serve” himself & Humper… I mean Hunter — my bad. And Dems won’t invoke the 25th, too embarrassing.

Makes no difference which of these two clown asshats sit in the Oval Office. Neither one are/will be running the country. They are mere puppets. That’s why Joey is always frowning and KamelHo always laughing uncontrollably. They’re feeling someone’s arm up their butts moving their mouths.

Good Morning. Wow! Did someone just wake up and smell the coffee? Getting Senile Joe out of the White House has always been part of the Democratic Party plan for the Harris-Biden administration. The only question was (and still is) whether he will go voluntarily when his handlers tell him to announce his early retirement or whether his own party will need to pull the 25th Amendment on him. The timing is likely to be determined by how long Biden’s fake “bi-partisanship” seems more useful than his constant gaffes are embarrassing. My guess is that Biden will be allowed to… Read more »

If I was to hazard a prognostication it would be that Harris will be slated to replace Xiden (I like that Russn8r) it will be toward the end of his term due to ‘failing health’ and when Harris has not has sufficient time to devalue herself in the eyes of the leftist useful idiots. Then in 2024 she will be running with an incumbent’s advantage.

Pelousy would then be V.P. What ever happened to women should be quiet in Church?

Arm up and carry on
