Interesting gossip on Clooney and Obama. For the record, if Obama had given Biden the nod in 2016, we wouldn’t be in this fix, Ollie. The yuppies (and the donors) have spoken. But not for me.

And... remember Biden during the 2020 campaign announced that when he selected a VP it would be a "black woman." So if she becomes the candidate. Joe has set her up perfectly to be the "DEI Candidate." You know, Biden had a very impressive first year as he was forced by the covid economic crash to push some very popular programs. But think back before his days as VEEP. Biden was never taken very seriously. He provided more laughs than anything else. The elevation him now by some Dems as the greatest prez ever is absurd./

Sorry but I disagree with you on Biden. He’s always been underrated. And Anthony Scaramucci, who surprisingly is no dummy, just said the same thing about Obama’s anointing of HRC giving us Trump. Obama and Hillary were so resolutely smarter than everyone else that they missed the real pain being felt in the country. I just wrote a piece cautioning the Harris campaign on this.
