Jamal Simmons, a former deputy director of communications for the Democratic National Committee (DNC), proposed an idea so wild that even the CNN panel he was taking part in seemed skeptical.





Simmons believes Joe Biden should fulfill a campaign promise to be a “transitional figure” by resigning from the presidency and allowing Kamala Harris to be the nation’s first female president.

Why? Three reasons.

  • Essentially, it would give Harris a “chance” to find out what it’s like to be president. As if the role of the leader of the Free World is some sort of charity operation.
  • It would make it easier for the next woman to run for president, as she would not have to bear the weight of breaking the glass ceiling. Which is false because she would still have to be the first to actually win a presidential election.
  • It would spare Kamala the ignominy of having to certify the election she just lost. Just as Al Gore (2001) and Richard Nixon (1961) did.

“Joe Biden’s been a phenomenal president. He’s lived up to so many of the promises he’s made. There’s one promise left that he could fulfill, being a transitional figure,” Simmons told the panel. “He could resign the presidency in the next 30 days, make Kamala Harris the president of the United States.”

CNN contributor Scott Jennings, often the lone voice of reason in any segment on the network, let out a “Whoa!”

Not surprising. What was surprising is that Dana Bash couldn’t even seem to get a grasp on what Simmons was saying, adding, “Wow.”

Simmons, undeterred by the resistance, fleshed out his argument.

“It would absolve her of being able to – from having to oversee the January 6 transition, right, of her own defeat,” he explained. “And it would make sure that – it would dominate the news at a point where Democrats have to learn drama and transparency and doing things that the public want to see is a time – this is the moment for us to change the entire perspective of how Democrats operate.”





What exactly does he mean by Democrats should be “doing things that the public want to see”? If the public wanted to see Kamala installed as the president, she wouldn’t have lost the election in the first place. 

Bash noted that the proposal is something relegated to the depths of social media, not necessarily what she – and she alone – considers a serious political talk show.

“OK, this has now jumped from an Internet meme to a Sunday morning show,” a leery Bash replied. “Congratulations.”

“It would give Kamala Harris the chance to be the 47th president of the United States of America,” Simmons pushed onward, suggesting the move would really stick it to the president-elect. “It would disrupt all of Donald Trump’s paraphernalia, right? He would have to rebrand everything.”

Yeah, I’m not sure replacing a man cognitively challenged due to age with a woman cognitively challenged due to a lack of cognition is quite worth making the Trump campaign alter a few T-shirts. Making America even more vulnerable just to play games with our political adversary seems … unwise.





Simmons served as communications director for Harris previously. Now you know why she couldn’t communicate her policies to the American people and was one of the most awkward candidates this nation has ever seen. She had this kind of intellectual firepower behind her.

Simmons’ idea is on par with the type of intellect that led to Clinton aides replacing all the ‘W’ keys on computer keyboards after George W. Bush won the 2000 election.

This idea of throwing Kamala Harris a bone – just because she deserves it – has been floated before. Bash referenced another insane conspiracy in which the left would like to see Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor retire so Biden could name Harris as her replacement.

That brilliant idea also came from a CNN commentator, Bakari Sellers.

“The court is 6-3 now….The possibility of Justice Sotomayor having to resign or retire in the next four years is extremely high,” he said. “You have a hell of a vice president right there who has a legal pedigree to sit on a Supreme Court. And let Republicans go crazy, ape, I’m even mentioning that option.

“Not only am I floating it, but I want to stir up everything. I want people’s heads to explode this morning,” he added.

What exactly are they putting in the water over at CNN for multiple pundits to come out with multiple, distinct ideas that only a wide-eyed child would think were plausible?





Are they all racing for gold in the Bad Idea Olympics? If so, Simmons beefed up his case for the top prize. He was so impressed with his idea to install Kamala as president that he reiterated it on X.

“Dems have better policies but we must realize the old rules no longer apply. We are not playing table tennis. We are in a mixed martial arts fight and Americans respond to drama and excitement,” he wrote. “We should use that to make our arguments for a better path forward.”

You don’t have better policies. If you did, your entire party wouldn’t have been absolutely slaughtered on Election Day. 

Besides, Americans already chose a “better path forward.” They chose Trump. No amount of fantasizing to the contrary is going to change that, gents.
