Is Jill Biden the Candidate Now?
Ever remember a presidential candidate who went nowhere without his/her spouse, yet the spouse speaks at numerous campaign “rallies” without the candidate?
Joe and Dr. Jill make campaign stop on the way home from the debate in Cleveland. Social distancing is never a problem at a Biden “rally.” AMTRAK is Biden’s speed.
Joe Biden’s presidential campaign has to be the strangest since FDR’s 1944 campaign. Most days Biden doesn’t even leave his basement. Other days he puts a “lid” on his campaign after brief activity, like going to church (he’s a devout Catholic don’tcha know?).
The media should be questioning this lack of activity. Instead the MSM is working tirelessly to cover it up and carry Biden across the finish line. Meanwhile Dr. Jill is crisscrossing the country addressing “crowds” you’d expect of a village council candidate in Enterprise, MI (population 194).
It’s no secret Jill Biden’s driving ambition has always been the driving force behind Joe Biden’s quest for the presidency. She has pushed him to run even though it’s clear he doesn’t have the capabilities. Now she is acting as his surrogate doing TV interviews (even with friendly interviewers like Jake Tapper) and campaigning across the country while Joe remains holed up in his basement.
Biden isn’t campaigning for the same reason FDR didn’t campaign in 1944 … he isn’t physically/mentally fit to campaign.
Yesterday, Joe Biden once again called a “lid” before most people in the country clock in for work. That’s become a pattern over the last month, with him taking off nearly half the days that a candidate would normally be campaigning their tail off. Even then, some of the days he hasn’t called a lid consist of him being photographed from afar by reporters as he goes to church and rushes back home. Is Biden having good and bad days, as is common with those who suffer from dementia? That certainly seems possible, as the explanations being given are getting more and more strained.
But another odd aspect of all this has also emerged. Jill Biden, Joe’s wife, has essentially become the candidate. She’s doing interviews and rallies while Biden continues to hide in his basement. Is she immune from the virus or something?
Ok, calling the above (below) “rallies” may be a bit much, but you get the idea.
Regardless, to say this is unusual is the understatement of the decade when it comes to politics. No one takes off half the month to prep for a debate. The other common excuse is that Joe Biden is hiding out because of the virus. He’s so responsible and serious about it, the story goes. But Jill Biden seems to be able to do almost daily events with no problem. Doesn’t that undercut their chief reasoning just a bit?
I’ve speculated on this before, but Jill Biden seems extremely ambitious to me, to the point where you wonder just how much of her husband even running was due to pressure she applied. She’s Hillary Clinton without the cackle. It’s quite obvious she wants this badly and that she plans to be extremely involved in the day-to-day operations if Joe Biden wins in November.
That’s why we see her giving multiple interviews a week and leading her own events, while her husband is telling reporters to go home right after breakfast half the time. He’s not physically capable of doing the job, and she’s attempting to fill in the gaps for him, as Democrats desperately try to drag Joe Biden over the finish line.
If Americans elect Joe Biden, they are really electing his wife and Kamala Harris. Everyone knows it, even if they don’t want to say it.
Jill Biden speaks to handful of supporters in Nebraska. She flew 1,200 miles for this? Why isn’t the media questioning the reasons Joe Biden doesn’t campaign more. We all know the answer.

Perhaps, if Biden wins, Air Force One will be a Pullman car.
The guys in the suits are likely Secret Service.

The media reported that Jill Biden is speaking to a capacity crowd because every lawn chair has a butt in it.

Pittsburgh yesterday:

Without the Secret Service and the media, there were about a dozen attendees. But, it’s not like Pittsburgh is a major league city.

I think it is gradually coming into focus that Trump won the debate.

Let me put the question posed by the OP as a Jeopardy question.
For $400, What was Mrs. Roosevelt’s first name?
Ding, Ding! Eleanor.
If you wanted post election results then the odds on winner is Edith Wilson who ran the executive branch for nearly a year while her husband was convalescing from a stroke.

Comment #2 for the win!

Cancel Culture now appears to be a two way street — https://saraacarter.com/hogan-gidley-slams-bidens-ties-to-exalted-cyclops-of-the-kkk/ — Biden’s past is coming out of the closet.

Hopefully Trump repeats first debate performance.

Election interference continues, hope everyone got refunds + time cost to rebook elsewhere, if not file suit.

You have to wonder if Whitchmer has a covert mission to sabotage pedo joe …..? Extends Michigan lock down until the 28th…..? Not sure how that helps ole joe….?
[17]
16 – Your kidding right, of course it helps joe, less in-person voting, less eyes on those who do, more mail-ins to play games with, less eyes around watching that closely (you know social distancing and all). The other day when she extended to the 23rd I said on the 20th she’ll extend till the 4th, welp that didn’t take long, so now I’ll say on the 25th she’ll extended it till at least the 4th.

If they thought it would hurt Trump a lot more lib governors would be doing the same.
Pretty much all of them

“…. so now I’ll say on the 25th she’ll extended it till at least the 4th.”
Give that bet to Robert Barnes. That would be a state wide civil rights violation.
[20]
Well it looks like Biden campaign is going to start a ground game finally. So that begs the question — is the ballot harvesting failing??

Just sign the porker already because you know its going to happen before Nov 3.

23, yes but we know Trump supporters lie on poll questionnaires LOL

Yah…. I’ve thought of it both ways and I don’t know which way I see it. The woman is pissing everyone off in her state, she couldn’t win a contest between herself and a turd sandwich and she is on par with governor hairdo, Insley, Cuomo…… I get the lock down fraud but I have to think the Trump legal team is going to send in a f spit ton of lawyers very soon. Did y’all see the rag article calling for succession today….? Do they know the color of the nation beyond the urban shitholes? I’m all for it. That whole water for existence would be an interesting natural resource to sell in the open market…..

Missed this yesterday – because Dems are procedurally forcing Republicans to stay in the Senate next week, McConnell just went ahead and filed cloture on five judges last night
