Before Booting Biden, Look Over Horizon at Harris

Kamala-Biden-NRA-ILA
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. IMG NRA-ILA

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.

Tionico

NewsFlash… WE did not ELECT Biden/Harris. They who counted the votes, after adding in a few million of their own made specially for the occasion, put them there.

Autsin Miller III

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.

Arizona

Disagree. She would try to bulldoze the Constitution and get thrown out, physically. She would push for too much, too fast, and wake the sleeping giant. And we would be back to a Constitutionally limited gov.

Larry

Indeed. Biden is too beta to resent having “his” positions dictated by others. Harris is too egotistical to let more experienced Corruptocrats lead her by the nose, and she will stride off in her own disastrous directions. Given how badly the “experienced” people have already ticked the citizenry off by oppressing their lives and destroying their businesses, imagine how long it would take Little Miss Giggles to inspire a genuine insurrection.

However, re-establishment of a constitutionally-limited government does not fall out of any of the above. That would require a separate but equal miracle.

USMC0351Grunt

I don’t see THAT dream occurring, not with the apathy running amuck throughout the country right now. Sure, a LOT of hoot-tooting and chest puffing, but that’s all it is.

JSNMGC

Isn’t that the truth.

Put this in your search engine:

“Texas veterans petition Tester (Ranking Member of the Veterans’ Affairs Committee) to vote NO on Chipman”

When are veterans going to get off their apathetic asses?

Bunch of hoot-tooting, chest puffing, apathetic do nothings.

They go on boards writing about WE tHE PEopLE, but never got together to petition Trump to order the BATFE (the members of which include a lot of veterans) to stand down or to petition Tester (big time “pro military” guy) to vote no on Chipman.

They just tell war stories from a half century ago.

Russn8r

Including your apathy.

Roland T. Gunner

I would hope, but not hold my breath.

Ryben Flynn

That was their plan. They wanted to be the first to claim they got a female president. biden was doomed from the start. It’s just a matter of timing now.

Larry

They did, because that’s the sort of thing that matters to monarchists and other celebrity worshippers — the bread and circuses party. They will have the first woman president, the first gay president, the first lesbian president, the first teen president, the first space alien president, and the first talking horse president. No care at all for wisdom or competence, just pack those entries into the Guinness Book, and pretend to yourself that you accomplished something great. And as a result, we will have an America that will be governed as well as San Francisco is under Breed, as South… Read more »

RINO RINO RINO, What a tired refrain. You apply this label to them all. Who in your mind is not a RINO?!?! Why do you keep supporting the Rhinoceros Party? LOL!!!

That’s just what a RINO douchebag would say. The most compelling thing about your post was the multiple question marks and exclamation points. Let me guess: LoLibertarian?

You cant name one “non RINO”! But the LOLibertarians spoiled your last election. And just because I go inside your mother every night , that does not mean I am a douchebag…

Childish statement.

APG member

And if you resort to the ad hominim I will hurt your feels too! You paragon of maturity…

Russn8r

Yeah, you really hurt our feelings with your clever repartee, APG aka TEX aka Will (not to be confused with Will Rogers).

Hey, my mom says she missed having your tongue in her last night. She’ll be 96 next month, so hurry back!

Russn8r

Oh yeah, the downvotes really hurt our feelings too.

I’m not your gopher, RINO. My mother’s 95 years old. She says thanks for the action!

APG member

I know, i know, everyone but you is a RINO. Silver foxes need luvin’ too, ask her about my “membership”…

Russn8r

Most Rs are RINOs like you & your pansy ass lockdown hero Gov Abbot, Gov Kemp, Gov Douchey, ChiCom Agent McCornhole, Queen Lindsey, Cabana Boy Marco, Texas reacharound artiste Speaker Phelan, et ilk. That’s how Dems were able to pull off serial coups to the point of seating a federal junta, and we’re looking at unhinged spending & inflation blessed by “Republicans”.

But mom still likes your big RINO tongue up her, Will.

Roland T. Gunner

You certainly sound like a douchebag.

Larry

We have plenty of non-RINOs here in Arizona. The party chair is one. Karen Fann, who drove the audit, is another. Not to mention Biggs and Gosar, quite possibly the most consistently principled voices in Washington.

APG member

Your local party chair will toe the line when told to do so. Biggs and Gosar are outliers and a will not be long for office. Trump was a registered Democrat 2001-2009, and has given more money to democrats over the years. He is a big business New Yorker, ask Jessy Jackson.

Cruiser

The difference is President Trump WAS a registered Democrat. The saying goes, “a liberal (Democrat) is a conservative who hasn’t been mugged yet.”

APG member

If you go back in time and read the democratic party platform circa 1965 you will find it reads like the libertarian party of today. I have no doubt the republican party platform will incorporate all tenants of Marxism in a few years. Some say they already have. You support this movement LEFTWARD!

You’re correct.

Trump was an anti 2nd Amendment Democrat.

They he said he was a Republican, got elected, and pushed an anti 2nd Amendment Agenda with a team of anti 2nd Amendment appointees.

Roland T. Gunner

He also failed to fill his cabinet and advisory positions with the “best and brightest”, and you would have thought he would have known better.

Russn8r

I know that, I donate to them. Doesn’t alter the fact that it’s a thin “R” majority, and a good handful of them are corrupt RINOs who only do the right thing under heavy pressure.

Roland T. Gunner

THAT describes Abbott and Patrick!

Yep. See TexasScorecard d0t c0m for the truth about Abbott’s cuckoldry. e.g.

“Moderate” Republicans are as culpable in destroying the United States as the Democrat Party is.

Unfortunately, RINO Abbot is only signing weak pro-gun bills under heavy pressure from real Republicans. The bill was hardly Constitutional Carry, considering that it preserved ALL of the “gun free” zones, including the “right” of “private” firms to declare their own “gun free” zones in areas open to the public — which means massacres like El Paso will continue.

Strongly recommend Dan Huffines, who is challenging Abbot in the primary next year. I donated to him.

JSNMGC

You know “TEX” is Will, right?

You have to quote him, because he deletes his posts and messes up the thread.

He loves Abbot.

Like this:

TEX – 7/27/21:
 
“AZ, I’m just so damn glad TX Gov.Abbott finally got CC signed into state law. Plus,he signed into law TEXAS sanctuary state status too.”

A poor choice of example, since El Paso was a Walmart, and Walmart has never restricted carry. Frankly, I am amazed to this day that in a Walmart in Texas, or all places, there was not a single gun carrier present to oppose this thug.

Finnky

Officially Walmart bans open carry in their stores. They just don’t post 30.06 so that they can ask carriers to leave without making it a criminal matter. They (Walmart) are trying to have their cake and eat it too – they do not want to overly offend gun rights supporters, yet want to virtue signal and comfort their hoplophobic customers. Unfortunately I think it is working to some degree. I do still occasionally shop there – but only when I’m carrying concealed. As for El Paso, the shooter picked that store because it is in a heavily Hispanic area and… Read more »

Finnky

Any suggestions on options to deal with such a situation? While dropping to a knee would restrict movement, shooting at an upward angle at perp’s chest would mean that misses should proceed into the ceiling. Since goals are (1) stop bad-guy and (2) hit no-one else – wouldn’t that be a good thing? Obviously best solution is to become a good enough shot that one won’t miss. I will continue to work at it, but realistically I won’t get there. Right now I’m happy to have progressed from “cannot hit broad side of a barn from the inside” to being… Read more »

Russn8r

No, El Paso is a great example. That there was no armed civilian resistance at Walmart is not surprising considering the extended effects of “gun free” zones. It’s predictable. A vast patchwork quilt of “gun free” zones deters carry in the non-“gun free” zones due to the hassle of planning & logistics, and the risk of being killed or prosecuted for accidentally carrying “illegally”. What’s actually worse than the known & predicable publicly-owned “gun free” zones is the unpredictable patch-work quilt of “gun free” zones decreed by “private” firms in places open to the public, like The Simon Mall chain… Read more »

I know personall of another person who was in that mall att the time, heard the gunfire, and as she (yes, a woman) began to move TOWARD the fire, the small shop she was in locked down. She could NOT escape to go tend to busness. That mall had no guns inside” signage, but WE al know they did not comply with Oregon’s very specific rules about design and placement, thus were not worth the tin on which the paint was put.

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?

I seriously doubt that you need to be overly concerned about Camel assuming the position of POTUS. Surely enough of the 535 members of Congress are smart enough to know that if the sitting Vice President cannot perform satisfactorily in that office, it would be a catastrophic move to promote that person to the most important job in the Country. Now that she has learned a little about the requirements and complexity of the VP’s job, and her inability to satisfactorily perform, I’m not convinced she would accept the job if it were offered.

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 »

@Xaun Loc, I agree neither biden nor kamala are anything but “useful idiots”. However, it appears to me (no particular insider information) the “original plan” to remove biden via the 25th or death is not currently feasible. … demorats do not have a solid majority in the Senate and pelosi is not well liked by her caucus in the House. Further, the mid terms will likely flip the House and return the Senate to the RInos; but even before, there is redistricting to consider. My sense is that the 25th to remove biden is not going to happen (and I… 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.

Yep.

Deplorable Bill

Joe Pedophile Biden 1st in line! Kamela round heels Harris 2cd in line! Nancy the wicked witch of the west 3rd inline! if you can eliminate Biden, who would Harris pick as her vice president, Bernie Sanders, David Chipman????

TexDad

Timing may be everything here. In my mind, Harris would be unlikely to be reelected, so it’d be nice if Biden wasn’t around to do that for her. It’s almost a given the party of a newly elected president loses ground in Congress in the next election. After that, if a hairlipped Harris takes the presidency, it may be a good thing. Stifled for the rest of her short term and destined to lose the next race.

Bozz

Worst case scenario: Biden resigns or is forced to. Harris becomes POTUS and selects Hillary Clinton as her VP. I don’t think anyone thinks Biden will actually make it full term. Nancy P brought up the 25th amendment right after the election. And she wasn’t talking about Trump.

Bill

VP pick still has to be confirmed by the senate. if no one is confirmed to the VP slot, then the senate is tied 50-50 with no VP to act as a tie-breaker. That would be a best case scenario.

USMC0351Grunt

Then it would fall to Patrick Leahy, the Senate’s president pro tempore

I don’t believe he gets two votes.

Actually Harris should not even be eligible to be the president.

I am going to post the link to Mr Korwin’s article without his permission but I don’t think he would mind. I could also be wrong on my interpretation of the article if so feel free to correct me.

The election of 2020 is going to go down in history as the election that either made America something each and every American can be proud of again or the one that is responsible for the fundamental transformation into a communist/marxist state. Furthermore it will be attempted whether it succeeds or fails. Let it… Read more »

Dave, you have explained perfectly preciesley WHY the Biden handlers picked Willie Brown’s former mistress as his running mate. They KNEW her rotten history on “gun rights” from way back when she was AtG of San Francisco. Her “position” on firearms is well known, and unambiguous. The best way to prevent Harris from stepping up to the Chief executive Officer is to bring up, and make stick (good luck on THAT one!!!

Biden is not coming up with any of this on his own, he is a diaper-wearing vegetable. 0bama and Jarrett are running this show from behind the scenes. Absolutely nothing would change with Harris. Just like with Biden, she’d just be the face, not the brains behind the destruction.

I can’t help, thinking about House of Cards and Scandal tv programs. Much of their material seemed far-fetched, till now.

Just means they both need to go. And Banshee Pelosi too.

Vice President Harris will never be different than any other dyed in the wool Dem-headstrong, undeterred by reasoning argument and, worst of all, opposed to civilian gun ownership. The Democratic Party is wedded to dishonesty because of the need to conceal their goals, all focused on overbearing government. So, boys and girls, expect a rough ride, unless by some miracle (don’t take it for granted), 2022 brings a huge defeat for statist politicians.

Let her try, let her ban everything with her unconstitutional exec orders. We will laugh at her, ignore them, and she can’t do squat to enforce them. And if she tries, she will be out on her azz so fast her head spins… that or the Us gov will be canned for violating the Constitution, as it is our duty to throw off such an oppressive government, one that fails to abide by its founding documents.

Since when does a sitting president get to decide if and when it is ok to violate his oath of office and the Constitution? Remove drooling idiot Joe, then remove Csmeltoe. I still, literally, cannot believe these two glaring examples of dumb and dumber managed to lie, cheat and steal their way into the White House.

Actually president harris would be great for 2a.

If biden steps down harris becomes potus. That means there is no VP. The dems will no longer have a tie breaker in the senate.

Does anyone actually read the constitution any longer? The 25th Amendment requires the president to appoint a VP when there is a vacancy. Appointment has to be approved by both houses.

Back in the 70’s, Agnew resigned and Nixon replaced him with Ford. When Ford became president upon Nixon’s resignation, Ford chose Nelson Rockefeller. It is all spelled out. Harris would choose a VP.
