Well, howdy there internet people, let's bow again. So today we are going to talk about

Biden and Harris and planning, long-term planning, 4-d chess level of planning.

We're going to talk about the theory and then just kind of go over some things that might be worth remembering.

Okay, so if you haven't heard about this,

there's a theory, a lightning rod theory. Basically the idea is that Biden always knew he was going to drop out. But he stayed in to continually attract the

Republican mudslinging to save whoever the eventual candidate is from being you know hit by it.

This theory has been around a while. It's worth remembering Biden said that he wasn't going to run for a second term.

The first time I can actually find a video talking about it is in 2022 on this channel.

I'm fairly certain that we actually talked about it in 2020. I just don't know where the video is.

So we talked about it then and basically laid out not just is there a benefit to the eventual nominee who would run in 2024 but for

Biden as president if he says he's not running he loses political capital.

So this has been discussed for years.

Then recently somebody asked about it over on the other channel.

And I basically said, well, if that's really what's going on, he'll drop out right after

Trump picks his VP because that's you know it allows the Democratic Party to

to pick candidates that better the better combat the Republican candidates.

Okay, so now all of that's happened.

The obvious question, do I really think that's what was going on?

No, not really. It's a possibility. You can't discount it, but I would be absolutely shocked if all of this was

planned. Honestly it seems to me like initially he was keeping the door open and then he felt like he

could win again so he decided to run again. Then political wins turned against him, so he's dropping out. That's, when

you look at the totality of the evidence, that's really what it looks like.
