Sadly for Republicans, Joe Biden will not be the Democrats’ nominee for president. In other words, no second term for Biden. Thank you Jesus!
J.P. Morgan strategist Michael Cembalest assembled a list of “Ten Surprises for 2024”. And it’s the third entry on the list that is raising eyebrows among the uninitiated. Cembalist’s third entry predicts that Joe Biden will exit the presidential race between Super Tuesday and November.

Not exactly Carnac the Magnificent in his timeline. But at least the guy states publicly what should be the obvious.
Super Tuesday is on March 5, so we should see lots of signs of Biden’s impending doom by then. But as I have cautioned, those signs have already come.
First, Vegas agrees with Cembalest. I wrote:
The chart below is revealing for many reasons. First, Trump is the clear victor for Republicans and that’s not likely to change. And while Biden leads in his primary race, watch what happens to these two numbers over the next 2-3 months.
As for winning the presidency, Trump again is the clear leader. To avoid tedious detail, I will say that none of the trend lines are good for Democrats. And because Vegas takes the emotion out of the selections, you get a real idea of what Americans think.
Americans like Trump, despite the narrative otherwise. Further, they like Republicans more than they like Democrats,
But let’s not forget the other even more obvious Biden issue. Biden’s age.
Axios’ Jim VandeHei discussed how age has suddenly become a factor for Biden:
Biden’s reluctance to acknowledge his physical limitations at age 81 is causing some tension on his team, as senior aides and First Lady Jill Biden push him to rest more and be vigilant about his health going into 2024.
As if Biden’s age is a surprise? Compound that with Biden’s obvious physical disabilities and it’s a wonder Democrats aren’t embarrassed that he’s their frontrunner.
Cembalest predicts that Biden will bow out for health reasons, then the Democratic National Committee will name a replacement. And while Biden has legitimate reason not to run like his age and his health, perhaps the best reason is his record.
Biden has a low approval rating for a President with ~10% job creation since his inauguration, although that figure is the by-product of his inauguration coinciding with the rollout of COVID vaccines and a reopening US economy.
Cembalest tells us nothing we don’t already know. Joe Biden’s presidency has been horrific for the country.
Bidenflation crippled the low and middle-class. Worse, Biden either believes his economy is good, or he’s content to lie about the impact of what he’s created. Either way, he is out of touch with reality.
But Biden’s biggest problems still await, and they have nothing to do with his failure as a legislator. Biden is a criminal and part of a crooked family enterprise.
Clearly the Biden’s partnership with China in no way benefitted America. But it would and did benefit the Bidens.
Circling back to Ukraine, we now know with certainty that Joe Biden interfered with the potential prosecution of Hunter Biden. A clear cut, open and shut case of influence peddling.
Now the Bidens’ chickens have come home to roost. Hunter Biden put the entire Biden family under fire, as well as those who have helped advance the interests of the criminal family enterprise. Not much as changed as Biden sycophants continue running interference for the family, at least for now.
And not much has changed for Hunter Biden. He refused to appear before Congress after he was subpoenaed, thus raising his profile even more. Adding to the specter of invincibility of Hunter Biden, one should not expect AG Merrick Garland to rush over and arrest him, as they did Peter Navarro who refused to appear during the Trump inquisition. Moreover, we’ve seen how the DOJ tips off Hunter Biden on imminent inquiries by the FBI.
Only famous people get that kind of treatment. Perhaps Hunter Biden is too famous. One thing is for sure: he’s above the law. At least for now.
Well now ended. And the new now will end the Biden family larceny as well as Joe Biden’s career.
