    if i were the deep state ‘cleaning house’ why would i hitch my wagon to the walking corpse instead of hand-picking a better successor? if the natsec ghouls are in the drivers seat, they’d be not worried about trump (idk why you assume he’d be incompatible) or if they were, they’d be ditching biden.

    overall the debate was just farce and hubris, no need to add behind the scenes designs to what can be elegantly explained from incompetence & arrogance

      Find me a candidate who’s willing to start a war with Russia, Iran and China all at the same time while sinking the European economy.

      Even Bush and Obama would think twice on committing to any of the above. The post-2009 financial crash means that the empire is more desperate than ever. Biden is the perfect candidate with a long history of pushing for US military aggression, a true ideologue for American supremacy.

        any democrat that hasn’t stepped out of the pro-genocide line on gaza is suitable. the strategic problem with Biden is that he can die right in the middle of your plans, a younger person can still be pliable without that risk
