Biden bribes and dopes youngsters into voting for someone quadruple their age and half their cognition

Joe Biden is doing poorly with Blacks, Hispanics, men (at least the ones with balls), and young people.

This is unusual. Democrats have long suffered from a gender gap where they are unable to get their proportionate share of male votes, but Biden is doing much worse than usual with Blacks, Hispanics and young people. Polls show his support with each is down double digits from recent years.

With young people, it’s worse than that – it appears likely that a majority of 18–30-year-olds may vote against him. He’s not exactly an inspirational figure with the aviator glasses, sneakers, hair plugs, stumbling gait, bumbling words, and luminescent teeth caps.

His failure to light their fire might also have to do with their ability to do arithmetic. Even a product of the nation’s failing schools can calculate that when his next term is up, Biden will be 86 – about quadruple their age.

Most Americans at age 86 are either in physical decline, emotional instability, reduced cognition, or death. Biden exhibits at least three of those conditions.

Biden – through his campaign staff, since Biden himself seems barely conscious of such things these days – has strategies for managing the youngsters. They decided some time ago to purchase their votes by forgiving their student loans. More precisely, their loans would be transferred away from the former students and onto the American taxpayers.

In effect, Biden offered to bribe a particular constituency with money taken from the rest of us. Just call him Joe Bribe-‘em.

The Supreme Court said Biden didn’t have the authority to do that. In response, Biden boasted that he plans to do it, anyway. “The Rule of Law” is apparently more a guide than a rule, at least for Democrats in an election year.

But even cash has not pulled the wayward youngsters back into the Democrat tent. Biden’s handlers are now teeing up Plan B.

Plan B is to re-classify marijuana as a less-dangerous drug. If he can’t bribe young people into voting for him, Biden will dope them into it.

The Biden campaign figures there are votes to be gotten here. A recent survey showed that nearly a third of Americans 19-30 had used marijuana in the previous 30 days. That’s triple the number that had used cigarettes.

Re-classifying marijuana gets their vote, the Biden campaign theorizes, because it endorses their lifestyle. It panders to them.

It also encourages others to adopt that same lifestyle. What better way to make people forget about the Afghanistan surrender, illegal immigration, inflation, housing costs, and the Biden Family Business, than to get them high?

This move to endorse pot comes at a time when the dangers of pot are increasingly apparent to scientists. About 30% of pot users have a “use disorder.” That compares to about 13% of alcohol drinkers.

That’s not surprising. People use pot for the specific purpose of getting high, while people more often use alcohol because they like the taste of wine and liquor.

The effect of a pot high is much different than the effect of an alcohol buzz. Alcohol is metabolized and eliminated from the body within a few hours, while the active ingredient in pot gets concentrated for days or longer in the white fat cells of the brain.

It does damage there. An article in the Wall Street Journal last week explains that a recent Danish study concluded that 30% of schizophrenia is caused by pot. Frequent pot use is associated with violence, birth defects, ADHD, and cognitive dysfunction.

Biden’s campaign is of course aware of this. But they are willing to compromise the health of people if that’s what’s necessary to get their votes.

It almost makes me miss the old days when the Dems earned votes fair and square by letting the voters first die of natural causes.
