Jamal Simmons, a man whose grasp on reality appears as tenuous as a three-legged chair, recently showcased his unique talents on CNN, proving once again that the left can concoct the most ludicrous ideas while maintaining a straight face. His latest gem? The audacious suggestion that Joe Biden resign and hand the presidency over to Kamala Harris, claiming this would somehow fulfill a great presidential promise. Someone should remind Simmons that promises made while operating out of an alternate universe don’t count for much in the real world.
Simmons, formerly the communications director for Kamala Harris, has transitioned into a self-styled political commentator. This role allows him to share his baffling ideas with the world, which appears to be a reality show that no one asked to see. During a discussion on “State of the Union,” Simmons boldly proposed that Biden could become a “transitional figure.” His reasoning was a perplexing mix of political strategy and a propensity for chaos that would rival a soap opera plot twist.
Hello No! The American people don't want her!
Former Harris aide suggests Biden resign so she can serve as president, and #Pelosi is blaming Harris loss on Biden not dropping out sooner. https://t.co/RBAYBkwFoD— point*row*farms (@Pointrowfarms) November 11, 2024
With all the sincerity and seriousness of a schoolboy daydreaming about becoming an astronaut, Simmons extolled the virtues of this preposterous proposal. He claimed that having Kamala as the 47th president would not only ensure Biden could dodge the fallout from January 6 but would also shine a bright spotlight on the Democrats’ supposed commitment to transparency. One wonders if any coherent thought ever crossed Simmons’ mind while crafting this masterpiece of muddled logic.
To top it all off, he suggested that this move would somehow ease the path for future female candidates. Apparently, earning a position through hard work is out of vogue, and now all aspiring women need to do is wait for a male president to hand them the title, no strings attached. This bizarre logic undercuts the very advocacy for equality that those on the left so fervently promote, turning it into a game of political musical chairs where everyone gets a turn—eventually.
Naturally, the suggestion didn’t go unnoticed. Even some leftists were taken aback, with one prominent critic pointing out that it might be wiser for Harris to earn the presidency through an election instead of via an act of convenience. Dabbling in political theatrics might appeal to some, but real progress and respect in leadership require more than a mere handoff. The Democratic Party continues to confound sanity with their ever-wilder ideas, leaving average Americans wondering just what alternative reality the left is inhabiting these days.
