The same Joe Biden suddenly looks different

Joe Biden is no more or less capable a president than he was two months ago. His staff is no more or less competent.

But suddenly, images of Biden as a feeble septuagenarian atop a mismanaged White House have given way to those of an experienced leader, smiling behind aviator sunglasses, whose battle-tested team has delivered on a range of national priorities. A winning streak does that for you.

It has not happened because of a strategy shift or staff shakeup, though at low points allies wanted him to take those ritual steps. It’s been a combination of good luck, skill and persistence by a president and Democratic Party determined to act unilaterally where Republicans wouldn’t and strike compromises where Republicans would.

Someone had a laugh writing this.

Barf Alert

[joshua c]

was wrestling with his jacket and then dropping his aviators part of his new improved image?

John Harwood, who was the star of one of the Podesta emails, offering to wash and Simonize Hillary Clinton’s posterior.

My stomach hurts.

Blatant propaganda.

Thinly disguised as “analysis.”

[kiryandil]

and then dropping his aviators part of his new improved image?

Thankfully, we didn't see the deuce that he dropped in his diaper at the same time...

[Robert DeLong]

Most likely wearing rose-colored glasses trying to prop a pig up as a president, and a strong president at that. But he is just a usurper who has benefited via theft, graft, & corruption and is nothing more than a common criminal who has escaped legal justice for far too long now.

[EvilCapitalist]

He still is a feeble septuagenarian.

The same Joe Biden suddenly looks different

The horns have begun poking through the plugs.

Lol, the same way the Daily Mail UK writers do when describing some aging sow actress as having a “svelte figure with toned, slender pins”.

We can all laugh and pretend that Biden is eating pudding in his boxers all day while the country burns around him because of his inaction but that image is just wrong. He may be eating pudding in his boxers all day but his team or his handlers or puppet masters are getting things done legislatively, most if it with GOP support. Literally everything he has asked for he has gotten from congress. Trillions upon trillions of new spending (GOP voted for it), gun congrol (GOP voted for it), a massive new "climate and healthcare inflation reduction" act, an ongoing expensive proxy war with a superpower (GOP voted for it), the list just keeps going on. Plus he gets all his marxist judges (GOP supported them all).

Trump got ZERO from congress. Obama got stopped every once in a while. Bush couldn't get amnesty. Clinton got blocked a bunch. But Biden? Ever single damn thing he wants, all of it and it's all bad. We should stop pretending he's a joke, his administration (whoever really runs it) will go down in history as a ruinous one and not because they did nothing but rather because they got so much done.

Used to be on CNBC, but he was too much even for them. I thought he had died.

[Clutch Martin]

Back in the ‘60s there was a picture in the Stars and Stripes of Mao swimming the Yangtze River and the real story was that help was provided by scuba divers, kinda like Hillarity being shuffled around in a body brace, that failed to articulate properly and... you’ve seen the images. Or the doddering Brezhnev.

Bideedodo is our own special Brezhnev...

Good for a few laughs

[kiryandil]

I thought he had died.

His credibility died for good in 2016. His corpse is stilling drawing a paycheck, like a dead oldster still drawing a social security payment.

[Spok]

These people are delusional. He wears the sunglasses to hide his zapped eyes.

[kiryandil]

Head of the JoeLitburo...

[EvilCapitalist]

OMG. That’s Biden to a T.
