In his podcast on Friday, Victor Davis Hanson, a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, proposed that if doubts about President Joe Biden’s mental health continue, Democrats might try to promote Vice President Kamala Harris to the presidency. Hanson’s remarks came after a video went viral earlier this week that showed Biden seeming confused following a climate lecture in the Amazon rainforest.
Important points:
- Hanson claimed Harris is reverting to her left-wing self post-election, following earlier shifts to moderate positions during the 2020 campaign.
- He speculated that Democrats might encourage Biden to step down, positioning Harris as his successor while pursuing legal strategies to block President-elect Donald Trump from holding federal office.
- Biden s perceived cognitive challenges, highlighted in recent public appearances, have reignited debates over his fitness for office as his term nears its end.
After President Joe Biden was spotted straying during one of his news briefings, Victor Davis Hanson, a Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, stated on his podcast on Friday that he thinks Democrats might still try to install Vice President Kamala Harris in the White House.
Following his speech on climate issues in the Amazon rainforest on Tuesday, Biden seemed to veer off a specified path, causing a video of him to become viral online. The senior fellow stated on The Victor Davis Hanson Show that Harris had wavered on the left-wing principles she had supported before 2020 and that, as a result of her defeat by President-elect Donald Trump, she was now reverting to her previous left-wing views.
However, I have two points regarding all of this. The president is him. He expressed his desire to everyone. During the campaign, he received harsh criticism for being overly inflammatory, but Hanson pointed out that this was different from Kamala Harris. As a leftist, she emphasized what she said. Fracking? Naturally, I’m going to outlaw it. She participated in protests, saying that she would not be deported. Weapons? She stated that she wanted to buy back guns, not just that she wanted to. I ll go into their house and get them, she said. Then she lost it.
For a hundred days, she flipped on all of those. She s back to her left-wing self right now, I assure you that. We re gonna see that because when Joe Biden is wandering off into the Amazon jungle at the G20, or they say, You know what? We waited 10 minutes and Joe is wandering around somewhere in the jungle and we have a photo op, so we re just gonna do it. Forget him, or if he does come in late, put him up in the right corner somewhere. So there s a big call that he should step down and she should step [up], Hanson added.
Hanson went on to state how he believes Democrats would attempt to jail Trump through one of his indictments and have Biden step down from his seat in order to hand it over to Harris.
LISTEN:
I said that they would probably try to put Trump in jail and Joe Biden was deteriorating at a geometric rate, would probably be la-la land, and then there would be calls to make her president. Then she would be acculturated for 60 days and then the Left would, that would give the left time enough, Hanson said.
Like this crazy representative Raskin or somebody, Wow, the 14th Amendment, He s like an extra. He s just like a Confederate general. He tried to start a civil war, so he can t hold a federal office. We re gonna go to court and we ll get a judge and we ll stay, Hanson added. I really believe they re gonna do that. I say there s a 30% chance that Joe will be, he might not be able to finish his term the next two months.
While Biden s slow walk back after his speech in Brazil followed a path where someone had reportedlyentered, concerns over the president s mental fitness have been raised in the media since his June debate against Trump. Although Republicans had raised alarms about Biden s mental fitness as early as 2020, Democrats had called Biden sharp and praised his cognitive abilities until he debated Trump. During that event, Biden was seen struggling to finish his statements and, at one point,frozemid-sentence.
