A SENILE PHANTASMAGORIA
Powerline ^ | 20 Jan 2022 | Scott Jonson

Posted on 01/20/2022 6:26:07 AM PST by Rummyfan

Yesterday President Biden held a rare press conference to observe the first anniversary of his tenure in office. I assess Biden’s press conference yesterday the worst ever — the worst presidential press conference, that is. The White House has posted the transcript here. I have embedded the C-SPAN video below.

He went on for nearly two hours. The longer it went, the worse he got. He defamed Republicans. He defamed the United States. He is an embarrassment.

Biden rambled, blundered, lied, dissembled, and streamed his consciousness like Molly Bloom in the last chapter of Ulysses or Benjy Compson in the first chapter of The Sound and the Fury. He searched his notes for talking points. He lost his train of thought, such as it was. He put his senile phantasmagoria on display for all to see. Does he have more than 26 cards to deal from his deck? It was appalling.

What about school closures? Might that be a political problem for you?

Oh, I think it could be, but I hope to God that they’re — that — look, maybe I’m kidding myself, but as time goes on, the voter who is just trying to figure out, as I said, how to take care of their family, put three squares on the table, stay safe, able to pay their mortgage or their rent, et cetera, has — is becoming much more informed on the motives of some of the political players and some of the — and the political parties. And I think that they are not going to be as susceptible to believing some of the outlandish things that have been said and continue to be said.

Kamala must be having a fit.....

Bidung’s ditched his Near Dead Dementia Act........
replaced it with his Need To Boost My Crappy Poll Numbers Act.

He sounds almost human......every so often.

I hear drJill was so pleased w/ Biden’s press conference, she decided they’d have celebration sex.

So she mixed up his usual Sex Enabler cocktail of Extenz and Ageless Male......
and added a soupcon of Vigoro to keep Joe.......ahem......”up” an extra minute or two.

Shouldn’t President Brandon have considered going out and “talking with people” when he campaigned from his basement in 2020, being cared for by “Jill”, his Visiting Angel? If he listened then, and more people heard from him, he wouldn’t be in office today. BTW, common sense dictates that 81M people could not have voted for this train wreck that has a 33% approval rating.

The presser was everything I expected it to be.

However, I don’t think there’s enough attention given to one aspect:

I waited a few days to follow up on the “voting rights speech”.

I don’t think he, they (including his fiery propagandist) or the media are handling either it or his responses well.

Kudos to RCP reporter Phil Wegmann.

For the record, here are Biden’s exact words:

“I ask every elected official in America: How do you want to be remembered? At consequential moments in history, they present a choice: Do you want to be on the side of Dr. King or George Wallace? Do you want to be on the side of John Lewis or Bull Connor? Do you want to be on the side of Abraham Lincoln or Jefferson Davis?”

The only benefit to watching him was to witness the spectacle of just how destructively consequential it is for a country to permit someone like this to occupy the highest office in the land. And to see realize that those consequences are just starting to accumulate.

Just imagine what three more years of rule like this will lead to. He is taking a wrecking ball to the country.

As someone smarter than me stated a while ago on FR, the statement you quote reveals that all of the “negative” individuals biden named, were Democrats.

“I ask every elected official in America: How do you want to be remembered? At consequential moments in history, they present a choice: Do you want to be on the side of Dr. King or George Wallace? Do you want to be on the side of John Lewis or Bull Connor? Do you want to be on the side of Abraham Lincoln or Jefferson Davis?”
