Well yeah... Biden's part of the "old boy" network.
As a young senator, he was the biggest thorn in the side of the CIA over their involvement in Central America and he's been going great guns in the Democratic Party ever since.
A total career politician, hypocrisy, corruption and narcissism run in his veins, thus making him "one of the gang" among the lifetime politician set. He's owed a lot of favors, knows which closets the skeletons are h*****g in and he's a formidable snake oil salesman whose opinions and agendas go wherever his party goes.
The fact that he seems to be losing his wits to some extent doesn't bother the rest of the old boy (and girl) network, once in the White House he'd follow the party dictates.
His longevity also makes him a sure thing for the above, rather than a johnny-come-lately who might prove unpredictable or become too independent.
Therefore it makes total sense that he'll have been the choice, all along, of Pelosi and the rest of that cabal to be their 2020 nominee... All the rest, Pocahontas, Bernie, "diversity," etc is just theatre to try and hold onto more naive non-white v**ers.
"Cabal" is exactly the right term for these people. They are a cabal of liars, sneaks, r****ts, opportunists, chiselers and power hungry hangers-on who will do wh**ever they have to do to remain relevant and earn the support they've been receiving from the g*******t left by selling out America as a final act before their respective career curtain goes down.
If Biden isn't the nominee I'll be pretty surprised.
I won't, however, be surprised when Trump slaughters him in the e******n, or when the Democrats lose their House majority and widen their Senate minority on the same day.
