How long before he is kicked to the curb?
I believe he will resign or Harris will 25th Amendment him to the curb before July 4, 2021.
Anyone else?

I’m going 3-4 years.
I don’t share the boards common belief that he’ll be done early.

I imagine the Democratic party has a vested interest in getting Biden out of there as soon as possible, because his mental shortcomings are getting harder and harder to cover up. However, the problem is the 22nd Amendment. If he doesn't last at least two years, Kamala Harris can only be elected once. So I suspect the strategy will be to prop him up to last two years and one day, even if he becomes a complete vegetable, so that witch would be eligible to win two more terms.
That is an interal problem, Externally, his length of service may be influenced by the magnitude of the challenges he will be faced with.

Put me down for one year, if he lives that long.

Still, if they 25th amendment him outa there, now, she would conceivably have the better part of two administrations. They might have her stand in periodically while he is “recovering” from one malady or another, then take over for good st 2 years +1 day... |

Updating my prognostication:
He has to be in office at least to the half-way point, if Harris will be allowed to subsequently be allowed to run for two full terms after 25th amendment'ing him out. SO, January 23, 2023 is my new threshold.
ALTHOUGH, I do admit, crap he has done lately might move their plans up...

Dave, I think the Democratic leadership is under no delusions about Kamala Harris winning two terms, because they recognize she is an unpopular, unelectable moron. They are stuck between a rock and a hard place with Biden and Harris, and they are taking the Biden road because he's much easier to manipulate and he has a high geezer sympathy factor.

Totally agree, but they want [whomever takes Biden's place...who, at this point is Cackles] to be allowed to run for two subsequent terms. I also agree they are stuck. While their original plan was for Harris to take his place, as you point out, they now realize what a huge boner that was. But now they're stuck, and getting rid of Harris is no better because Pelosi is next in line of succession... SO, they either can Cackles NOW and get someone in there who can be somewhat successful after January of 2023, OR wait until Cackles fails as president, but after she picks a new VP who can/will run against her in 2024. |

I think the Dems realize how bad a candidate Harris is, and would not have her run for President anyway. Might be time to run either Pete or Beto.

The Democratic power brokers will never allow Kamala Harris to be their presidential candidate, even if they have to rewrite their party rules to specifically exclude stupid black women. That way they can rule out Maxine Waters, Stacy Abrams, Lori Lightfoot and AOC at the same time.

I keep getting cackles and cankles mixed up...... My guess is, once they kick Biden to the curb, that confusion will become paramount. I'm guessing Cankles is on the short list of Cackles VP's... |

Yeah well, you also guessed that Biden would be out by July 4th this year. I guess your guesses just aren't worth much.
