What an interesting time we’re having. Over the last week and a bit we’ve had two assassination attempts; one successful and one not. I’ll come back to the inaugural event for the new sport of extreme ear piercing later.
We’ve just witnessed the successful political assassination of Jibbery Joe.
I’ll have to ask my US readers for a degree of patience because I’m even less clued up about US politics than I am about UK politics, but here’s my take.
Everything points, to me anyway, to the whole thing being a bit of a set-up. It was obvious to any neutral observer back in 2020 that Biden was having cognitive issues. Whether they were sufficient to be described as full-blown senility is doubtful, but it was abundantly clear he was on the downward slope1.
As we know from the other assassination attempt, slopes, according to the head of the US Secret Service, are far too dangerous for agents to navigate. Who cares if some President comes a cropper because a bunch of agents can’t safely manage anything other than level ground?
Well, it got to the point where the doddery old Joe couldn’t even properly manage level ground and so they had to pull the plug.
I think Joe was deliberately set up to fail in that debate, and to fail spectacularly. They knew it was going to happen and they wanted it to happen. By ‘they’ I mean the people who were running the show whilst Biden was away, which was starting to become most of the time.
The timing of the debate, which I understand to be unprecedented, occurred before either party had actually confirmed their candidates and these televised clown shows are usually held much closer to the actual election; not 5 months away from it. It seems pretty clear that for those ‘they’ people, the sooner the better.
The subsequent media shit storm as a ‘shocked’ populace finally woke up to the fact that their President was a vegetable, and likely had been for some time, was enough to enable the movers and shakers, the ‘they’ people, to exercise pressure on Biden.
I can imagine the conversation
The They People : President Biden, you’re going to have to step down as candidate
Biden : flurmpikethruggliplopfrumschroomurgleding
Dr Jill : How will we protect Hunter now?
The They People : We can sort that out, but if Joe runs let’s just say that Hunter’s fucked
And so he did the ‘decent’ thing and stepped down. Biden was a bit upset, naturally. He’d grown fond of the big white nursing home he’s lived in for the last 4 years.
I don’t like Biden much. He kind of creeps me out. His eulogy for St George of the Fentanyl was one of the most sickeningly insincere pieces of political opportunism I’ve ever witnessed. I felt dirty after seeing it. Be that as it may, although I’m mocking his condition, I wouldn’t wish dementia on him, or his family, however much I might despise them. Mock I will, because the ‘they’ people deserve mockery in spades, but I also am saddened by the whole affair.
Our real ire should be directed elsewhere. Biden was clearly just a puppet - and it got to the point where the strings weren’t working well enough. Somebody was running the show, and it sure as shit wasn’t Biden. That’s democracy for ya. You know that stuff the Dems are so keen on ‘saving’?
It seems that a lot of people are firing up their full-on sickeningly insincere ‘eulogy-mode’ describing Biden and his presidency in the most absurd overblown ways.
Washington? Lincoln? Who the fuck were they? Biden was The Real Deal™, the greatest President ever to have graced the US. He’s practically the guy they were thinking of when they wrote the constitution. American history from 1776 has been leading up to this superlative pinnacle of Presidency ever since.
And, the next Democratic candidate is gonna be even better. Trust us.
All over, people are waxing lyrical about the sacrifice he’s made for his country2, his selflessness in stepping down, and so on and on. Excuse me for a moment while I empty out the vomit bucket. It’s full.
Yeah - he might have shit his pants, shuffled the wrong way off stages, and helped Hunter live such a wholesome lifestyle but, fuck me, he did it for his country. What a true Patriot.
The President’s soiled underpants will be set alongside the Declaration of Independence as one of America’s holiest objects in the National Archives Museum. They’re going to have to build a whole new wing containing the list of sentences Biden never got round to finishing.
If I’m going way over the top here, it’s because I feel I need to, to provide some kind of counterbalance to the outrageous eulogizing that’s going on.
And let’s not forget that Biden’s administration thought it necessary to shove all that diversity crap in everyone’s face. For example, they appointed this thing.
To be fair to Sam he might have been good at his job, whatever that was. And he was remarkably free of baggage - at least any of his own at any rate.
All joking aside, I am by inclination more of the ‘Democrat’ persuasion than I am ‘Republican’, but the current crop of Democrats seem intent on dismantling the very things that are necessary for democracy (or even a democratic Republic). They are, along with other governments (like the EU, for example) doing their level best to limit open and free discourse in the name of ‘saving’ democracy - and also to save people from bad poorly ouchies from all those hurty words they read.
This, for me, is the absolute deal-breaker. Free speech is the absolute foundation of everything we’ve held dear until very recently. It is the “One Ring”.
This is a great pic of Biden uniting the country by telling his fellow citizens that close to half of them are domestic terrorists and extremists.
He did it for his country.
We’re already seeing a lot of stomach-churning eulogizing in the legacy media, but one thing you won’t see is very much self-reflection. For 4 years these arrogant fuckers have been trying to deliberately fool the American Public by pretending that Biden’s Bonce was operating at warp speed - better than he’s ever been, and so on.
Their lies have been very cruelly exposed.
But there’s a certain mindset isn’t there? It’s that ‘elite’ tactic of saying spurious crap and expecting to be believed. In the UK we had a very influential government adviser, Dominic Cummings, one of the chief architects of the UK’s own brand of covid nonsense, flout his own lockdown rules by driving with his family some 250 miles out of London. He claimed it was to “check his eyesight”.
We’ve had a very recent example of such incomprehensible stupidity from the head of the US Secret Service. She claimed that the reason why snipers weren’t stationed on a roof at the attempt to assassinate Trump was because of the danger the slope presented to agents. It’s baffling on several levels. She, presumably, knows this is beyond stupid as an explanation. The fact that she presented this as some kind of serious explanation is hard to interpret. Maybe she really is as thick as two fridge doors - but I doubt it. If this is the best ‘explanation’ they can come up with it really does make one wonder doesn’t it?
When you read a media article, think slopes (not Snopes) - because it seems that remarkably few of these duplicitous fuckers called ‘journalists’ can be at all trusted these days.
And so we’ll end with my own eulogy to Biden
Joe, I’m sorry you got, you know, erm, the thing
I made 2 predictions at the start of 2020, neither of which turned out to be correct. I said we’d have final proof of the existence of aliens and that Biden would not make it to 2021 as President. My predictions are often rubbish.
He helped out Afghanistan quite a bit too. He was selfless like that.
"Garçon, a bucket for m'sieu.
And perhaps a hhose."
I think someone gave the Bidens an offer they couldn't refuse.
Or worse, someone or a group of "them" wrote up that letter, signed it or had it signed, and published it on their own say-so, betting that the Biden-backers would back down rather than risk confrontation and escalation and all sorts of nasty things coming to light.
"Listen, Jill, Joe gets to be president until after the election, you keep your cash and your pensions and whatnot, Hunter gets a sweet deal and you get your book-tour and everyone keeps schtumm about you-know-what. Tell me where you'd get a better deal."
"The salmon mousse!"
Or Covid.
I watched a video of Trump repeatedly picking up the hat of a marine guarding air force one, after it kept on getting blown off in high wind.
Obviously the media ignored that, as they couldn't spin it negatively.
I watched a video of Biden shouting "clap you stupid bastards" to the assembled military audience.
The media conveniently ignored that one as well, for some reason.
Biden is a prick and always has been.
Fuck him.
