DESSERT-ING THE RACE Joe Biden drops out of 2024 election on National Ice Cream Day as Americans joke ‘I don’t believe in coincidences’


From The-Sun.com (July 21):

On Sunday afternoon, Biden released a statement confirming he would no longer be pursuing a second term in the White House.

Americans were left shocked by the timing of the announcement, with many pointing to the president's love for the summer treat.

"Of all the days," one X user wrote.

"I don’t believe in coincidences," another posted.

"Biden dropping out on national ice cream day is so on brand actually. iconic," a third said.

"Joe Biden dropped out on National Ice Cream Day. Fate loves irony," a fourth said.

Meanwhile, another wrote, "How fitting that Joe Biden drops out of the race on National Ice Cream Day."

Throughout his presidency and campaign, Biden has regularly been spotted at ice cream parlors and stores, indulging in the sweet treat with voters and supporters.

The president's love for ice cream has also been featured on his official X account and late-night shows.

While Biden has been seen eating a variety of flavors, his favorite is officially Graeter’s chocolate chip, his granddaughter Naomi Biden told Vogue in 2022.

SPLIT FROM THE RACE

Absent of bananas, Biden announced his split from the presidential race in a lengthy statement.

He reflected on his presidency thus far and his intention to pursue re-election come November.

"And while it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term," Biden wrote.

He said he plans to speak in greater detail on the decision later in the week.

The decision came after weeks of pressure from within the Democratic party.

Calls to step down dramatically increased following Biden's disastrous June 27 debate performance, where his cognitive decline was highlighted.

Top members of the House and Senate, including West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin publically called on Biden to drop out of the race.

"He will go down with a legacy unlike many people," Manchin said while appearing on This Week with co-anchor Martha Raddatz on Sunday morning.

"He's one of the finest and truly a patriot American.

"So with that, I come with a heavy heart and think that the time has come for him to pass the torch to a younger generation," Manchin said.

Dozens of former national security officials also urged Biden to step down in a letter reportedly sent to the White House.

"With the deepest appreciation for your many decades of inspired leadership, we strongly believe that ongoing concerns surrounding your continued candidacy," the letter obtained by CNN read.

"And the growing likelihood of an electoral college victory for Donald Trump put your national security accomplishments — and our country and your legacy — at an unacceptable level of risk."

"Donald Trump’s vision, approach, and expressed intentions concerning our nation’s security are in fundamental conflict with the values and principles for which you have stood."

“We strongly believe that now is the time to pass the mantle of leadership, and we respectfully urge you to do so,” the letter concluded.

The letter was signed by at least 56 individuals who had served across multiple administrations including former US ambassador to the Czech Republic John Shattuck and former Clinton National Security Council official Eric Shultz. [read more]

It is ironic, but I doubt Briben knew it was Ice Cream Day. I didn't know it either. It seems like America is celebrating way too many days. What's odd is that his staff was told by his chief of staff about Crooked Joe leaving the presidential race. What's with that?  Doesn't seem right.

So, Briben is too mentally unfit to run for re-election but not too mentally unfit to continue being president? Where have I heard that before? Oh, yeah the Robert Hur report. Since Briben is running again how about releasing the audio version of the transcript?

It would be better if Crooked Joe remained president otherwise Commie Harris would be president which might even be worse and might be harder to run against her if she was president. Just keep the lying demented pedophile from the nuclear football.

About Briben leaving the race:

Here’s your life Joe Briben:

Will the Border Czarina Kamala Harris, if she gets elected president, continue Crooked Joe’s legacy? Definitely yes. Expect the End of Days. Surprised smile
