Too kind to Biden. He isn’t that coherent.
To verginius Rufus:
I certainly agree. You are absolutely right. But this is political satire, so I have to take some poetic license…
Since the real Joe Biden is clearly in the early stages of dementia, maybe even past that, he has good days and bad days, smart days and dumb days, slow days and quick days, happy days and angry days.
I have been trying to write these soup stories to be conscious of that fact. So in some episodes, the president is smarter than our real one, and in other episodes, my character is even dumber than the real one, if that can be possible.
In the first couple months of these, I think I portrayed him as totally gone a little too much, and that just doesn’t work so well, as fiction.
So I have gotten into a cadence, where he has his ups and downs.
