Congress is back in session, which means Democrats are now going to have to answer questions about whether Joe Biden ought to remain the nominee.

The big question in Democratic circles is whether he stays or whether he goes. Biden’s a stubborn old man, so he really wants to stay. He is now channeling Jennifer Holliday from the original Broadway production of “Dreamgirls”: “I’m staying, I’m staying. And you, and you, you’re gonna love me.”

Last Friday, Biden tweeted out that he is staying. He stated, “Let me say this as clearly as I can: I’m the sitting President of the United States. I’m the nominee of the Democratic party. I’m staying in the race.”

We know that’s not really what he would say if he could say it as clearly as he could because if he could say it verbally, it would sound more like this: “Let me say this: ipqucovmskcuecyehw, c’mon, man.”

The same day of the tweet, Biden held a rally in Wisconsin where he insisted he would not drop out. At this rally, he said, “You probably heard he had a little debate last week. I can’t say it’s my best performance. But ever since then, there’s been a lot of speculation: What’s Joe going to do? Is he going to stay in the race? Is he going to drop out? What’s he going to do? Well, here’s my answer: I am going to run and I’m going to win again.”

There was only one problem at this rally where he was trying to pretend to be alive: He died on the stage. He explained that he was going to win again in 2020. Apparently, Biden either has a mental problem, or he has discovered a time machine.

“I will beat Donald Trump. I will beat him again in 2020,” he yelled.

At the very least, if he’s going to use the time machine, he should go back to 1856 and beat James Buchanan.

A new survey from CNN says that 75% of voters think the Democratic Party would have a better chance against Donald Trump if they backed another candidate. More than 50% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning registered voters agreed with that election sentiment.

That is a massive problem for Biden. He is stubborn as he wants to be, but the pressure is ratcheting up inside the Democratic Party, and it became stronger on Friday night with the interview he did with George Stephanopoulos.

The presidential nomination was at stake in the interview because if Biden had appeared lively and sprightly, if his lie that his debate with Trump was just an off-night looked like it was true, he might have been able to get this train back on the rails.

The question was whether Stephanopoulos was going to try to massage him back into some form of actual living embodiment or whether he would put a pillow over his face and smother the old man.

It turned out that he was going to put a pillow over his face and smother the old man.

He wasn’t asking particularly hard questions if Biden were essentially a person and not a vegetable. But the problem is that Biden is now a rutabaga.

Stephanopoulos asked Biden: “Are you the same man today that you were when he took office three-and-a-half years ago?”

Biden: “In terms of successes, yes.”

Stephanopoulos: “But what has all that work over the last three-and-a-half years cost you physically, mentally, emotionally?”

Biden: “Well, I– I– I just think it cost me a really bad night, bad run.”

Stephanopoulos: “What I’m asking you is, about your personal situation. Do you dispute that there have been more lapses, especially in the last several months?” 

Biden: “Can I run the 100 (meters) in 10 flat? No, but I’m still in good shape.”

Stephanopoulos: “Are you more frail?”

Biden “No.”

Meanwhile, Stephanopoulos is thinking of sneaking behind the hospital bed to pull the plug.

In that interview, one of the people on the screen was going to exit that interview dead: either Stephanopoulos for trying to massage Biden back to life or Biden with the plug pulled by Stephanopoulos.

They had to ratchet up the audio level in order to pick up the voice of the president of the United States because that’s how weak he was in this interview. Stephanopoulos, for his part, was really trying to push Biden over the cliff while Biden was grabbing like a cartoon character onto the edge of the cliff with his fingernails like Wile E. Coyote.

CNN reported that after the interview, team Biden thought he did amazingly well. Of course they were going to say that because what were they going to say? That he did horribly?

Meanwhile, we now know that Hunter Biden is the gatekeeper for the president of the United States, according to Axios, who reported, “We’re now in uncharted, historic waters: President Biden — backed by first lady Jill Biden and his convicted son, Hunter, who’s serving as de facto gatekeeper for longtime friends — says that nothing, besides an act of God, will persuade him to quit his re-election campaign.”

When Congress comes back into session, there will be reporters all over the House and they’ll be asking every Democratic House member if they believe that Biden is either sentient or whether he can beat Donald Trump.

It’s going to be a disaster area for Joe Biden this week.

President Joe Biden formally rejected on Monday a bill in Congress that would require individuals to show proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in elections for federal office.

A policy statement from the Biden administration said it “strongly opposes” the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which was introduced by Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) earlier this year and is expected to get a vote in the Republican-led House as early as this week, but did not mention the prospect of a veto.

“It is already illegal for noncitizens to vote in Federal elections — it is a Federal crime punishable by prison and fines. The alleged justification for this bill is based on easily disproven falsehoods,” the statement said. “Additionally, making a false claim of citizenship or unlawfully voting in an election is punishable by removal from the United States and a permanent bar to admission.”

The statement added, “States already have effective safeguards in place to verify voters’ eligibility and maintain the accuracy of voter rolls. This bill would do nothing to safeguard our elections, but it would make it much harder for all eligible Americans to register to vote and increase the risk that eligible voters are purged from voter rolls.”

While some municipalities in a few states and Washington, D.C., allow non-citizens to vote in local elections, Republicans have argued the SAVE Act — which also would push states to remove non-citizens from voter rolls for federal office “at any time upon receipt of documentation or verified information that a registrant is not a United States citizen” — is needed to combat the ongoing border crisis and shore up election integrity.

“Federal law currently PROHIBITS states from verifying citizenship status during registration for federal elections,” Roy posted to X on Monday. “The SAVE Act requires proof of citizenship to register and would remove non-citizens from voter rolls. What are Democrats fearful of?  This is basic stuff, you would think …”

House Democrat leaders urged their peers to oppose the bill, claiming it would “prevent Americans from registering to vote with their drivers’ license alone” and make a passport the “only acceptable standalone form of identification,” per Axios. They also said the bill would create an “extreme burden for countless Americans” and “further intimidate election officials and overburden states’ abilities to enroll new voters.”

Axios noted Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) released a report last month in favor of the SAVE Act, warning of a National Voter Registration Act “loophole” that “does not require states to ask for proof of citizenship when registering an individual to vote in federal elections,” but rather “relies on individuals to merely attest they are a citizen and eligible to vote.” The report also cited evidence of noncitizens on voter rolls in various states.

The Biden administration’s statement said the “evidence is clear that the current laws to prevent noncitizen voting are working as intended — it is extraordinarily rare for noncitizens to break the law by voting in Federal elections.” It added Biden “has been clear: he will continue fighting to protect Americans’ sacred right to vote in free, fair, and secure elections” while encouraging Congress to consider Democrat-led bills on voting practices and pushing the House GOP to vote on a bipartisan border deal has failed to gain traction.
