Let me be clear: Joe Biden was not ever going to run for re-election in 2024. The guy was ready to go out with his ice cream and Amtrak memories, maybe watch some Matlocks and let Kamala or any one of the dozens of people in DC take the wheel as he rode off into the sunset. Then came... them.

You know them... the "inner circle", the spokespeople, aides, advisers, and "whisperers" that are always "deeply concerned," but also booking media appearances. They were not just encouraging Joe to run again in 2024... they pushed him to run again. And not because they bought into "finishing the job." No, this was something much more twisted.

The theory is this, at the end of the day Biden's inner circle... is not liberal anymore. At some point along the way - maybe during a Georgetown cocktail party or a tumultuous Aspen retreat - they flipped. Quietly. Fluidly. Red ties under blue suits. RNC donors in DNC drag. And Joe, who was already tired from age/debt of presidency did not notice. They told him that he was the only one who could beat Trump. There was a duty. America needed him.

But here is the punchline - they want Trump to win.

Why? Chaos. Clicks. Cash. The GOP has their strong man, the consultants get richer, and the left get blamed for supporting a guy who literally wanted to stay home.

Joe Biden is not the villain here. He is the tragically flawed hero in a Shakespearean farce he did not audition for. The real crooks are the ones behind him. Smiling for the cameras, quietly handing Trump the keys back to run the demolition derby for democracy.

Wake up. This was not Biden's decision to run again. This was the greatest blue-to-red heist in the history of heists - and we were the victims.
