Richard Grenell, a former acting director of national intelligence turned potential Republican candidate for governor of California, gleefully seized on an error by Google on Saturday, promising “a plethora of executive orders” after the search giant listed him as “President of the United States since 2021”.

Biden 'doing fine' after stumbling once, twice, thrice on steps of Air Force One Read more The former Trump aide also took a low shot at the actual president, Joe Biden, tweeting: “I will run up the stairs without tripping.”

Biden stumbled dramatically on Friday, as he climbed the stairs to Air Force One. On Saturday, before noticing his accidental promotion by Google, Grenell complained about media coverage of Biden’s fall including criticism of Donald Trump Jr’s decision to tweet a gif showing his father knocking Biden over with a golf ball.

“Washington DC types are killing humour and laughter,” Grenell claimed.

Few Democrats or Washington officials found much to laugh about in Grenell’s time as acting director of national intelligence.

In February last year, one unnamed former official told Vanity Fair his appointment “clearly, unambiguously” represented “the politicisation of intelligence” and said the former ambassador to Germany was Trump’s “guardian against fact”.

John Brennan would never politicize intelligence. Oh, no.

The former Trump aide also took a low shot at the actual president, Joe Biden, tweeting: “I will run up the stairs without tripping.”

Low shot?
If Grenell were actually President, they might impeach him for that little joke.

would be ‘bout just as legit as the CCP puppet’s

That’s going easy on Joe. Memories of Jimmy Carter and the killer rabbit, and Gerald Ford’s multiple mishaps, assassination plots by little old ladies, and other fun that SNL and others milked.

How many times has Feels Up/Heels Up made references to “Harris/Biden”? IIRC Feels Up made a reference to “President Harris” just the other day.

I'll expect you to mail me a check for the amount you would have paid! ;-)

But seriously...I can't take credit for it. I either saw it here or heard it on a great Boston talk show I listen to every afternoon.

...including criticism of Donald Trump Jr’s decision to tweet a gif showing his father knocking Biden over with a golf ball.

The original meme had Trump's golf ball knocking over Hillary as she entered a plane. I had trouble finding it so I recreated it for The People's Cube webpage . That is where the original artist made himself known to me. He even had an avatar very similar to mine.

Heels up Harris became well known after a James Woods tweet. The man is brilliant so I have little doubt he came up with the phrase on his own.

I can't recall if it was from actual RAF history or if it was from a Monty Python skit but I recall once having heard reference made to an RAF pilot called Wheels Up Harris.

Perhaps that's where James Woods got it.
