Well, ha, ha! Funny video and all.

Let's consider Biden's presidency shall we.

Biden took over from a disastrous Trump presidency. COVID was rampant and its effect needlessly much more severe due to the both-for and against vaccination stance of the former president.

The US economy was in shambles.

Fast forward to 2024 - Biden's thoughtful COVID policies and luck - with bad luck COVID could have become much worse, but at least Biden was urging vaccination, wearing of masks, and so on - brought COVID largely under control. Post COVID, the US economy is enjoying one of the largest if not the largest expansion of all nations.

The Biden presidency has faced numerous global challenges - for starters - Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

And most recently, the Hamas attack against Israel and Israel's far to aggressive response.

Are the above decisions in accord with the perception that some doddering old fool holds the reigns of US policy making - or - actually - Biden may be the best president ever in US history.

I'm far, far closer to the second conclusion...

I’m not sure about best President ever in US history - but he’s in the conversation :)

Unfortunately there are millions of Americans that won’t see beyond the fact that he’s old and not a great communicator.
Hopefully not enough that would vote in the orange criminal.

Just so. It's going to come down to a coin flip... 50-50 either way... as to who will be the next US President... decided by a handful of voters in a very few states of the United States of America.... popular sentiment be damned.
 


Fortunately there is nothing in the constitution that says Supreme Court judges can’t have billionaires friends.

I sure hope that tank ban is lifted. Got me some tank blueprints off the interwebs last night and was the winning bidder for a deluxe, industrial-grade, 3d-printer. Hoo doggy!

In case of voting irregularities, I plan to drive that sucker right up to the capitol. We'll show them woke dems what a real peaceful protest looks like!

Not if I get you first with the hand-held missiles I bought from China; be lying in wait down in Foggy Bottom.
