ABC reporter (actually a hard-core Democrat party hack) George Stephanopoulos is going to do a sit-down face-to-face "interview" with Joe the Hairsnifer today which will be heavily edited and broadcast sometime this coming weekend. 

If the past is any indication George will throw Joe some slow softball pitches with no follow-up of an kind.  The wording of the questions themselves will be primarily intended to make Joe look good and stroke his ego.  There will be few, if any, follow-up questions.  Joe will have the questions in hand well before the actual "interview." 

If this does NOT happen, if George actually asks Joe some real questions that may have awkward and uncomfortable answers, which Joe may or may not flub, it will be significant.  It will mean that a significant part of the party power structure and the propaganda arm of the DNC (otherwise known as the legacy media) has decided that it will be better if Joe goes away.  

It COULD be a gentle but unsubtle push to Joe, aiming him for the door.  It also could be Weekend At Bernie's.  I am now reasonably confident that much of the structure of the DNC and it's minions would be very happy if Joe would go away peacefully and quietly.  That being said if they decide they must push Joe out, it could be much more interesting.  It is now painfully obvious that Dr. Jill and Hunter the Crackhead are now major counselors to Senile Joe.  They are desperate to hang on to their power and protection.  Hunter is not going to sell many $300,000 finger-paint paintings if Joe goes away.  Jill will have to fly commercial if Joe goes away.  If Joe goes away and Trump wins (which now seems likely) the Biden's are scared shitless of what an FBI or worse yet IRS probe will reveal.

Let's say Joe goes.  Who moves in?  Kamala??  Not bloody likely, but distinctly possible.  It is technically easy.  It would retain the $250 million war chest.  Trouble is, Kamala is an inept moron.  EVERYBODY knows she is an inept moron.  It is distinctly possible that she would do worse in the general election that Biden would do, even from a wheel chair or hospital bed.  

I don't think that November will bring about a Regan v. Dukakis out come.  Senile Joe will at a minimum carry California.  There is, however, the bare chance Trump will now carry New Jersey and a fleeting possibility that he will take New York.

The DNC is no doubt figuring how to get creamed the least.  They don't have the answer, at least not yet.  And (so far) they haven't managed to convince Joe to leave.  It is possible they never will.  Will irritating manage to overwhelm incompetent?  If it comes down to it, I think it will.  People WANT to see honestly they voted for the winner.  If that 8-10% in the middle overcome their revulsion of Trump, Biden, will be toast.  If not, it will be uncomfortably close.  

I direct readers to the Scottish Referendum from a few years back.  Right up until election morning the pollsters were saying "Less than 1% split, too close to call."  The actual vote was almost 11% against.  People lie to pollsters, they also lie to themselves.  

OMG this will be fun to watch.

There has been a change of plans. They now plan to run the think at 5 p.m. (west coast time) tonight and not wait until the Sunday Morning Show. Hard to say if that is good for Joe or bad for Joe. Of course at this stage I am not sure anything would be good for Joe, it is just a variation between more bad and less bad.
